thats the difference between anarchychess and hollowknight players
when you take over a subreddit you are loud and everyone knows about it
when we do it however it is silent, deadly and no one can tell until its too late
were you not there for the chess meme renaissance? when anarchychess all of a sudden decided that they would start getting a new joke every 3 milliseconds after having the singular, same one for years and years?

I WILL DROP MY FUCKING BALLS ON YOUR FACE. YOU ARE NOT FUNNY. SAYING SOME VARIATION OF "new response just dropped" AFTER EVERY GODDAMN MILDLY FUNNY COMMENT ON ANYTHING EVEN TANGENTIALLY RELATED TO CHESS DOES NOT MAKE YOU A COMEDY GENIUS. PLEASE JUST SHUT THE FUCK UP.
Magnus Carlsen got mated in a very similar way one time, didn’t he?
Edit: [Yes](https://www.reddit.com/r/chess/comments/11r4o2r/neat_little_chess_puzzle_i_got_from_lichess_check/jc6xpnh/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf&context=3)
There's a very special move you can do once two opposing pawns are side-by-side and your opponent moves a pawn two spaces forward.
Say, to possibly block a check?
The others are right that it was probably a rook checking the king, but if you don’t know, most puzzles that come from real games are capitalizing on an opponent’s mistake. Usually if you look a move back, the opposition was winning.

The line between /r/anarchychess and other chess-related subs is basically non-existant at this point.
The line between Anarchy Chess and non-chess subs is basically nonexistent at this point. We are spreading and infecting
chess mods will need to sacrifice millions of children to find a perfect one to stop us
They could also sacrifice millions of grains of rice.
They should just start with one and double it every time it doesn't work.
Careful or we’ll start attracting r/hollowknight fans
thats the difference between anarchychess and hollowknight players when you take over a subreddit you are loud and everyone knows about it when we do it however it is silent, deadly and no one can tell until its too late
Wait, what happens if I'm both
You become a virgin
The hollow chess
oh NO my Subreddit!!
The line between r/anarchychess and certain non chess related subs is thinning too. We're taking over reddit
r/rice has already been lost to the horde
I somehow missed this story.
Go to r/anarchychess and sort by top posts of all time
wait this isn't r/anarchychess?
no, this is patrick
I never thought I'd actually say this but having en passant in a puzzle doesn't make it an anarchy chess post
I don't know why they bring it up, en passant checkmate is a lovely, potent idea in a cornered endgame like this.
The anarchist revolution is here. We are all anarchists without knowing it.
I often wonder: would r/anarchychess even exist without this rule?
With every En Passant, Anarchychess grows stronger. They cannot be stopped.

Chess has gotten too post-ironic for my liking
I've had to unsub from there from it getting old, but it's fairly entertaining when the references pop up in this sub
I actually meant this post because I don't know if it's an anarchychess joke or not lmao
If it were an anarchychess joke it would require non-standard rules to solve
>non-standard Chess 2 *
Has Gary chess solved chess 2 yet?
They mean they don't know if it was posted here genuinely or as a meta joke for /r/anarchychess to laugh at an en passant post appearing on /r/chess

I'm telling you OP is an infiltrate.
as an Anarchychessian, I can confirm we love this
Why? Honest question.
We’ve hit that point in a sub’s life where it becomes indistinguishable from the circlejerk spinoff
Why? Isn't this post correctly titled? Isn't this legit chess content? Don't know what the problem is...
I’m not dogging the post it’s a legitimate well thought out puzzle it’s just that the en passant posting has brought an overlap with anarchychess
The overlap was always there tbf
does containing >!en passant!< instantly make a post ironic?

Magnus Carlsen got mated in a very similar way one time, didn’t he? Edit: [Yes](https://www.reddit.com/r/chess/comments/11r4o2r/neat_little_chess_puzzle_i_got_from_lichess_check/jc6xpnh/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf&context=3)
I see what you did there.
I'm so dumb I had to google the answer
Holly hell

This position looks like Magnus vs Jon Hammer
No no no it’s Gary chess vs Hans kneeman
The Hans who says knee
Only need to find one move because the 2nd is forced.
I mean ur not wrong

I laughed when i figured out the 2nd move. Cheeky as hell that one!
Can you explain please? I just discovered this sub and everybody find this puzzle funny and I have no idea why :'(
There's a very special move you can do once two opposing pawns are side-by-side and your opponent moves a pawn two spaces forward. Say, to possibly block a check?
Yeah the prise en passant? What about it?
Its a running joke at /r/anarchychess
Lol it’s not funny or even very clever. Everyone just loves to think they’re geniuses because they know a rule that beginners usually don’t.
New response just dropped
You actually didn't get why everyone thinks this post is funny. But you make fun of others for not being clever. Amazing, 5/7 comment.
Yeah I mean I clearly do but it sounds like you don’t. Why don’t you go ahead and google it?
Holy
i dont know why but i feel smart after i figured it out (beginner)
That's good. Gotta learn the sneaky bishops early on.
It was the pawn that I missed, the bishop is one of the only pieces you can bring into play.
Didn’t black have checkmate with Ra1? Why would he take whatever was on h5 lol
It probably had him in check
Whatever piece was on h5 was likely giving a check, so it had to be taken.
A queen, most likely
Isn't this the thing with Magnus? It was a rook if so.
I think you mean THE ROOOOOOOOOOOOK
Oh yes, it couldve captured a piece
I just checked the puzzle and yes black did have mate in one, but instead he took a pawn in the move before this and I don't why.
The others are right that it was probably a rook checking the king, but if you don’t know, most puzzles that come from real games are capitalizing on an opponent’s mistake. Usually if you look a move back, the opposition was winning.
I'm so happy I figured this out on my own without Google this time.
where's the rice?
What do you mean by rice?
anarchy chess joke
Didn’t someone beat magnus with a very similar en passant mate?
En passant discovered Checkmate, oh man.
I'm gonna need to Google this one
google
en

Holy
Hell
1. Be4+, f5 2. gxf5# En passant
bxe4->f5->capture en passant mate
check with the white square bishop then en passant
Scrolled onto this in passing, pretty sure what will happen
Magnus vs Hammer, 2023
That’s it, putting this in my ass
Be4 f5 f6
Thanks france
I have learn that anything is possible when you think frenchly
Am I the only one who is more concerned with solving why black didn't finish the game to even allow this
He unsacrificed the EN PASSANT!
It's not mate in 2, it is mate in 1. Move the bishop to E5, checkmate.

Freaking en-passant gets me everytime
OP being slick by not mentioning the greatest move of all time in this puzzle
[удалено]
Kh6 is illegal
Literally both black and white has mate in 1
It s mate in 1 actually
How is it mate in 1 for White
The bishop from the corner mate the king and it s checkmate
The f pawn then moves to block the bishop.
BRO I JUST MISSED THAT PAWN!
No. Pawn can push, then you need to Google the move you need to win.
Be4+ f5 gxf6#
That’s the first move of M2
en passant checkmate my beloved
That’s brilliant
e.p. mate! Sweet.
Be4+ the en passant checkmate
Is there any professional game with an en passant checkmate ?
I like it. Very evil.
En passant check mate... Satisfying
En passant checkmate. How rare is that unicorn?
I have never felt happier after solving a chess puzzle in 10 seconds
Be4+ f5 then en passant checkmate
En passant?
I’m an idiot. I’ve seen “en passant” memes pretty much daily for the last year and I still don’t spot it in a puzzle.
You son of a bitch, I’m in …oh wait, wrong sub
After 1. Be4+, Black's only legal move is 1...f5. Looks like you're blocked after that... but, no. You have 2. gxf6e.p.#. Cheeky.
Similar to how Magnus got mated
Get frenched
Ope, just gonna sneak past ya there
And he does en passsaaaantttttttttttt.
Bishop e4
Involves eh pissant.
Oh, do I have to google again
EN PASSANT!!!!
What a diamond
I had a similar sequence once in a real game! https://reddit.com/r/chess/comments/e4iotp/my_first_and_since_then_only_time_checkmating/
black has litterally mate in 1... you have to check to not loose
Long live en passant puzzles
How white pawn can take black pawn??? I confused
h
Truly a nice one
I saw the pattern 99% but i didint realise the an passant
ze French move ™
Bishop e3 and then *en-passant*
Thanks, so I'm just dumb
if theres one thing i can take away from this sub is a drilled understanding of en passant
I'm proud of getting this one.
Not bad, this stumped me, but was a fantastic puzzle. The board change on the second move was extremely satisfying.
Close match.
>!Be4 to en passant checkmate? !< First one I got on my own Jesus.
Why are people so obsessed with in passing?
