spartan117: It seems you just started playing chess because that's the only thing that will explain your obsession over knights.
The Queen is the undisputed strongest piece followed by the rook, bishops/knights and then pawns.
Let me give you a hypothetical chess scenario to figure out: In a case where black has just a king and a knight left on the board and white has a king and a queen. Who do you think will win this game?
Take another one: in a case where both black and white have a king and a rook left, and they each have one pawn that can be promoted with their next move. As a chess player which piece would you rather promote those pawns to?
Every amateur/intermediate chess player should be able to answer these questions with ease. scenario 1 is a queen /knight While two is definitely a knight (only a chess expert would understand) |

chinchum: Thats not true. The queen is the most powerful. Even two knights combined is not worth a queen. A pawn is 1point A knight is worth 3 points A bishop is worth 3 points A rook/castle is worth 4.5 points A queen is worth 9 points tell me in the picture below of what good is a queen if u wish to checkmate either kings with just a single piece

FACE: A knight cannot checkmate the King unaided, but it can put the king on check whilst targeting another piece. I will let the knight fall in battle in exchange for a rook or queen. The knight can be pinned to a standstill by an ordinary pawn. The queen is the most powerful piece on the board, followed by the rooks, then the knights and Bishops. Yes, a knight can target several pieces at the same time, just like the queen; the only difference is that a knight's attack is indirect and cannot be blocked if the piece on target is unable to move. in the picture above(in my previous comment )which piece can checkmate both kings unaided |

Orestino: Queen without blinking an eye 
Who promotes a pawn to a knight? a knight is made for battle while a queen uses her influence I believe the knight is the most underrated /powerful pieces in a chess board |

AlfaSeltzer: It can avoid the knight easily. The night has only 8 possible maximum moves. The queen has 28. the queen can only target 8 piece at a time same as a knight |

AlfaSeltzer: Put it this way. Let's say you have lost a your knights and your queen but managed to get a pawn to the opponent's end of the board. What would you exchange your pawn for? A knight or a queen? Depends on what my opponent has Sometimes the only way to win a game is to have a knight |

Kinda notice that a knight attack cannot be blocked and it's the only piece that can get close enough to a queen
It's the only piece that can threaten the king and capture the queen at the same time
It can attack eight pieces simultaneously
What do u think ? Is the knight the most powerful piece in a chess board ?why and why not
Only chess expert and above

Abdulqareem: so we should clap for the pastor and perhaps introduce him to putin and biden for raining insults and blasphemy on islam and muslim. Christianity's new found love is mortification abi? It shows the poor state of that pastor's upbringing and how low he is. Thank God he has provided clues for the security operatives and I commend the civility of MURIC in handling this volatile case. Our love for Prophet Muhammad(pbuh) is uncompromising and anybody who wants to see the limit of our endurance should mortify him. Enjoy your christianity in peace fa Islam is a religion of terrorist and sadist Every Muslim I know of has violent tendencies |
