Only a super pro would choose anything else besides the queen

a knight can attack your king, queen, bishop and rook all at the same time. Knights can do wonders😀

A knight.
You can't block a knight's check on a king,either you move or sacrifice.

Lol
For it to have that strength, it usually needs the backup from a Queen or Rook. Although to be fair, aside from a Queen, my next most favourite piece is the knight.
Most times I try to take out both of the opponent's knights as early as possible in the game

Knight.. While limited in movement when compared to queen and rook, very dangerous!

No matter how efficient a knight is, it still needs back up. Anytime any day, I go for queen..

every piece is equally as important in the game of chess. The pawn is just as important as the queen. It just depends on how good your game is.

Yeah, and size doesn't matter. And the government has our wellbeing at heart.
Question is, would you rather have a pawn or a queen protecting your king in your end game?

I love the fact that you can cunningly fall an exposed Rook with your Bishop when playing with an Amateur... nevertheless it's QUEEN anyday, anytime.
