    Video idea: how many kings to beat stockfish?

    • @Frey-y5c
      @Frey-y5c 2 місяці тому +49

      Well, technically, it would be guaranteed checkmate for stockfish because one fork that’s protected immediately wins because both can’t get out of checkmate

    In the game against the maximum bot (3200 elo), however, every time you lose, you remove one piece for maximu. So you lose 1 game, you removed 1 pawn until, if you lost again, then remove 1 more pawn, etc. If you have lost 8 times, then remove the knights, then the bishop, then the rook and finally the queen. I hope you understand

    @jk-2053 Місяць тому

    I thought you'd increase by 1 pawn until you win. Once you added a whole row, I expected you to go down (like by 1 until you lost, or down by 4 then up/down 2 depending on win/loss). Now we only know that you need somewhere between 2-9 pawns to be Martin.
    Beyond that, my strat for beating Martin with 1 pawn would be to push king ASAP. I'd hope to distract with my king, occasionally capturing any hung pieces, then make a safe path for my pawn. Because your only win con is the pawn, that's the piece you need to keep safest, so I'd never throw it forward into danger like that. I'd probably lose it still to, like, an attack on my pawn while its only moves are also in danger, but... hey, that's the best I've got.

      If one side makes a move that is forcing (meaning the opponent must react to that move and cannot continue their own plan) then we say that move is with tempo. This is important so that we can continue our own plan while our opponent reacts to our moves.
