I think it is worth pointing out that if the Black king moves to a3, the White rook can still check on a2, as KxR is yet another stalemate.

Im a pro at getting stalemate. As soon as ik i cant win i start pinning all my pawns and harass their knights with my king

Rook a3 when king is on b3 also works

Yes, that was the final conclusion at the end of the video and is the fastest and most efficient way to end the game. Good luck with your chess!

Black king can't move is stalemate? Weird
@jesan733Ай бұрын
It's got nothing to do with color or the king. The rule is: "It's stalemate if there's no legal move for the player whose turn it is".

@@jesan733exactly. A rare form to end a game for strong players, but it does happen for time to time especially with weaker players not being careful with queen moves in the endgame. That’s why when I just started with chess, I would often times underpromote to rook and mate with to rooks instead of rook and queen.

I saw this at the very second white king was on b3, but then here is the thing, I'm stuck at 1000 and I can't even make it to 1100🥲
