This needs a drawback "your opponent can see your arrows".

So glad you're keeping the drawback hidden. Deducing your opponent's drawback while concealing your own is what makes this variant so interesting.

1:50 "we still have to trade queens before we can trade kings" i suggest not offering a king trade, that doesnt usually go well 😂

6:30 you can capture the king "en-passant". That is if the opponent castles in check and your piece has a legal move to the square which was occupied by your opponent's king (which in this case your bishop does not have, as the king was not attacking your bishop), it will be counted as an en-passant king capture. Saw this in one of Chess-simp's drawback chess videos

Video Idea: Drawback chess but you dont reveal the drawback fo ANYONE (including the viewers) so you have to try to justify your strange moves and then reveal the drawback (or not and let us decide) at the end. Might be too difficult but idk just throwing it out there

1:50 Ah yes trading kings

Hey Iwantcheckmate, you can actually take the king via en passant if they castle through check, granted not in the second game because the Bishop was not under attack, but if a opponent castles through check you'll have the option to take the square he use to sit on and it will capture the king

bro found the infinte content glitch

I got into your content with stuff like drawback chess and spell chess, but honestly I stayed because I love hearing your simple yet in-depth explanations of why you move your pieces to certain places. It really helps me as a 600-ish ELO player understand how higher-level chess players think.

6:21
No, you actually CAN'T castle out of check in this variant, becuse your king can be captured en passant. (you can capture the king by moving to the space where it previously was).
In this game though, you couldn't have captured it anyways because your bishop wasn't under attack.

Don’t forget that you can capture a king that has castled out of check “en passant”.

1:51, “We have to trade kings”

Theres near infinite content here. Each drawback, first of all, then each drawpack paired against each other drawback... which got to be a 5 to 6 digit number of possible combinations...

4:32 so basically your knight is useless

MORE OF THIS WE LOVE IT SO MUCH <3 :D

I absentmindedly clicked this video and thought wow Chess Simp really upgraded their text-to-speech tool

Game 3 is basically play normal chess but you have to make the worst martin blunder in the opening

The title makes it seem like Tony hooked himself up to a kill-switch or something that activates when he loses 💀

When I had the Botez Gambit Drawback, my opponent captured my queen to initiate a queen trade on the start of turn 11, so we were even lol.

game 4 was actually one of the best games on this channel. I've complained in multiple videos a lot of the time it's never about these variants and all about you being 1800-2000 beating up on 1000 rated players, but the opponent in game 4 really understood what you wanted out of the position and you had to out manouver them WHILE being restricted by the variant. Exceptional game.
