i love you for that comment

I’ve started saying it without the context of chess. My friend cancels our plans later today, “you piece”

'You piece' is now how i end every single phrase lmao

@@jcp1296 How does that work for pickup lines? Or flirting in general.

@@Chromodar the trick is not to

@@jcp1296 For someone who ends every single phrase with "you piece", you seem to not be ending very many phrases with "you piece", you piece ;)

when she hit him with the copium 💀

Kate based AF for hitting him with the Copium IRL

That was a great play by Kate ngl.

To be fair, "This game is harder if you're really good at chess" is like, uncut colombian copium right there.

@@jasonpcooke I had a pretty good idea, but I had to Urban Dictionary “copium.” I feel so old.

That fooled me, too.

So incredibly blessed. 🥺

LOVE da baby

I know, its the cutest thing. Its also funny, like, what does she think "chat" is? Does she think that dad is just crazy talking to the camera or computer like its a person? "Guess I'll play along with him. Hi Chat!" I wonder if she knows that "Chat" is that box full of moving text, or at what point will she figure it out or learn what it is. Being a baby must be so fucking weird, like being on an alien planet.

@@DaggerSkullery hahaha yeah I thought the same thing. She must just reflexively say it when she sees the computer or gets up on NL

@@DaggerSkullery As someone who knows nothing about babies, I'd guess it's just like teaching an animal it's name or a command. Not actually understanding but a reflex from being infront of the computer in dad's office

Being a baby isn’t weird. Nothing is weird when you’re a baby. You just go with it. Everything is normal because you don’t know any better.

@@DaggerSkullery i meeeeeean TECHNICALLY the world IS alien to a baby. I mean it's completely unknown and undiscovered for all you know, until you slowly start learning it isn't xp

Chat seems to have gone full fucking dunning-kruger effect illiterate for this one.

Finally a game where NL is smarter than chat for

@@RareSpottedGamer nah that’s still almost half of them they just act like they know lmao

it seems like NL's strat is to fuck up and then wait to find messages to cherry pick so he doesn't feel as bad about losing/tries to not look as bad. crazy how long he'll just dwell on a loss. it's so easy to die in this game, just try again. I beat king mode last night and if i dwelled on every loss... god damn i'd be there forever.

@@Brandd1 i think it’s called content for the stream not dwelling on a loss. i think chat talks about it so he talks about it to and i think he’s just kidding most the time you taking it too serious lol

He’s never gonna best it lol expect 100+ episodes

That's a lot of his playthroughs

@@simplyrin210 He should be able to beat it without too much trouble - I've only played it for 3.5 hours now, and beat it on normal, and then on hard, and I don't even play chess

@@thaecrasis Honestly think half the problem for NL is that he does play chess and is too into playing it like actual chess whereas enemy turns aren't actually quite the same, sometimes traditionally bad chess moves might be good in this for baiting enemy movement but he's less inclined to do them and such.

@@thaecrasis wow you're so smart Pat yourself on the back twice champ

I hope he keeps playing. super fun watching him play this actually.

To be fair, NL is pretty ass at this game.

Chess is always full of people who dont even know how the game works but still try to correct you. It's a narcissist's dream game to backseat

Let's be honest here, we don't watch the egg to learn how to get better at games, we watch the egg because the egg speaks the funny

backseating incorrect information is the best kind of backseating, that'll teach him to rely on chat for intel

X Paper?

@@ZionSype when Luna came into the room, NL made a comment to K8 about taking something away from Luna before she could accidentally show it on stream. I assume it was a piece of art she did at her activity and it had her real name on it

@@fauna575 Who’s real name? Luna’s? I thought that was her real name. And if it’s not why does NL call her that? Family nickname?

privacy reasons, I imagine it’s because NL’s last name is known and they don’t want the internet to have Luna’s information

@@ZionSype X for like in an algebra equation, where we don't know what it is. Not the best analogy, but it kinda works.

I feel like there HAS to already be some insane chess anime out there

@@blahthebiste7924 yea it’s called Code Geass

@@TheIbney00 GOATED anime

@@blahthebiste7924 Yes its called Highschool DxD.

The only actual chess manga that i've read is Chrono Monochrome, it's about a modern japanese chess player that timeslipped into the 18th century (getting a chance to play against phillidor, mozart and such).

Start of pieces is slighty random so it was unlucky... (Not sure about king himself but rook and others definitelt have some random to it)

i hope someone got fired for THAT blunder

@@Bongyes might be wrong, but there seem to be certain rules: the white king always starts on e1, d1 is always occupied by the queen, unless there is none, in which case a rook takes its place. If there's a second queen, it always starts on the other side of the king - on f1. I'm not so sure about how bishops and rooks work, I haven't payed enough attention, but knights seem to have the lowest priority, since when the back rank is filled up with pieces they start showing up in the second rank. In any case, you always start in front of the opponent's queen or rook. He should've known better, but as a chess player it feels really weird. Edit: I actually bought the game yesterday and within 4 hours of play time I beat every difficulty level except for the last one, which seems nigh impossible of you don't take it slow. The only difference between "very hard" and "king" difficulty is that they add an extra bishop and pawn at the start. Doesn't sound that bad, but "very hard" already has you fighting an extra knight and pawn, 1 starting shotgun shell, less ammo and no soul slots, so it's already pretty tight. On top of all that, King mode allegedly doubles the boss' health too, which I've yet to see. What I've come to realise, though, is that, as I initially suspected, queens spawn as close to e1 as possible with a bias towards the queenside (d1-a1), followed by rooks, then bishops and finally knights. When the back rank is full, they start taking the second rank with the same rules, staying as close as possible to e2. I almost wish the rooks had a bias towards a1 and h1, and as further rooks get added to the white king's army they would take g1, b1, f1 and so on to further resemble a chess board.

the king spawns on either d8 or e8

@@lucianoariasduval 39:41 yeah, seems like "in any case, you always start in front of the opponent's queen/rook"... but not really

gotta be dad patience lol

maybe because it was more worth to play the game instead of getting mad at messages

Try discovered But check

@@dazkrieg9924 You dropped one of these " - "

The Quantum Supercheck

There are only two usecases I can see for holding on to them. The card that free turns them so you can chain soul cards or the unfaithful steed/additional soul slots combo that allows up to 3 additional movement per horse card by jealousy guarding them and only using them when you can immediately replace it with another knight soul. I have done both builds to varying success and I will say the Knight soul card builds slap but you have to consider if you might not just be better suited doing stuff that guaranteed additional damage and range.

Sorry, i wasn't aware this was sexual harassment
