What's Your Most Valuable Chess Piece? by BaEnki(op): 8:32pm On Jan 23, 2017
I'm addicted to chess right from junior secondary school, I've managed to have Elo rating of 2027 my highest rating, when playing low rated players, I can easily win without my Queen, but my Queen is priceless when playing my 'age mate'

Over the years I realised that Queen is the most valuable piece, some said its the King, but to me the king is actually a 'vegetable smiley' or do you guys have another say? And also what's your favorite opening? For me Nh3(Amaar's opening) is my favourite. And I easily defeated many top players with it.

Queen of course. When i play against experts i aim for the queen and those unpredictable knights. If your queen is gone then you are most likely to lose d game.

Playing Knight is quite easy to me, I disposed off my knights and keep my two bishops like they king especially white bishop.

You can easily curtail knights if you strategically positioned your pawns. smiley

E4 is nice too, I used to open my game with that.
When starting with amaar's opening I.e Nh3, when your opponent moves d4(black opponent) immediately you have to move g3

Ohh sorry bout that! What's your chess software name on pc? Wanna try d expert mode too? Many people actually find the boring, but that's the people that don't understand its concept. I'm a lone player too and basically loner in nature, so I play with online friends and AIs

My knights are more powerful than the queen
The queen is vulnerable and easy to spot
