PIECES:
pawn - one square forward, attacks diagonally
rook - any number of squares forward or sideways, attacks any player in its way
knight - moves in an L shape (2 forward, 3 sideways, or vice versa), can jump over pieces and attacks players at the end of the L
bishop - moves any number of squares diagonally, attacks any piece in its way
queen - any number of squares in any direction, attacks any piece in its way
king - any one square in any direction, attacks any piece in its way
none of the pieces can jump over other pieces (except for the knight)
the only one that can be blocked from moving is the pawn (because they move forward and attack diagonally)
check = the player’s king is being threatened by an opponent’s piece (meaning in the next move, he could be attacked)
checkmate = the player’s king is in check and there is no way to legally move out of check
@@timhamock2996 anyway you like as long as it's in L shape and it's 3x2 or 2x3.
Nancy Alexandre no lmao, it’s 2x1 or 1x2... he even says it in the video
taikutsu Because it would be putting the king in check which is illegal. The bishop stops the king from taking the queen.
The rules are the same as regular chess, with no exceptions. Keep watching this video for a refresher on those rules.
When watching this, the only thing going through my mind was: "who the hell came up with these rules??". Moving in an L pattern, seriously...
The knight is the coolest piece ever idk what you’re talking about
Actually, if you really think about it, you’re making the shape of a horsie with the squares. It just happens to look like an L.
Who else feels dumb because they cannot figure this out... Don't worry I am with you. ._.
Genuis Gamer it's too fast to process that's all.im determined to learn.ive never played nor tried.first tutorial. ..this one is for those who don't have ADD or need things broken down
I have a bunch of friends that get together and play and I always feel left out, so I decided to learn how to play and now I feel so stupid. So many rules and other things to remember, guhhh
Just as long as you escalate from your dumbness and proceed into higher experience, then it's ok to say that
I actually beat a super computer in a game of Chess. I used a baseball bat and just beat the computer until it broke which made me winner by default. Humans 1.
"The rules are the same as regular chess, except for the following changes..."
Then the video just suddenly ends.
"For a refresher of those rules, see the video in the top right." _points to link that goes to the same video_
*furiously taking notes*
I have the chess Letter but I don't know how to play it can you please teach me how to play chess and win.
I'm just going to stick with playing checkers
SHANE 102588 Haha you can't give up now! Just learn the movements first then proceed to the others.
@@spouts chess is fantastic to play once you learn it. try other video tutorial. and once you learn it, play against human opponent at chess.com.
Who else is here because you’re just finished with the queen’s gambit
To all of you thinking it is hard. You cannot learn chess watching videos. It helps, but you have to play.
@@ifhedieshedies2756 I think he means practising what you've learnt with someone who knows how to play , Thats how i learnt.
spineshivers Really!!! The thing that get me .... why does this game have so many rules. 🤪🙃
@@ifhedieshedies2756 Have someone who knows how to play walk you through as you play.
Computer games like Chess Titans are good for learning because when making a move, it will prohibit you from making any illegal moves. Thus causing a new player to learn what pieces can and can't do while playing.
Learned this game when I was 10 , in the 1st month you just move things the way they are as you play more youll learn how to strategize and I have to say it made me more smarter in life.
How the pieces move:
Pawn - Moves straight forward one square at a time and captures diagonally.
Knight - Moves like an L shape in any 2 directions.
Bishop - Moves any number of squares diagonally in any direction.
Rook - Moves any number of squares horizontally or vertically in either direction.
King - Moves one square at a time in any direction.
Queen - Moves any number of squares in any direction.
Unique moves:
Castling - The king moves 2 squares and the rook jumps one square over it (both pieces have to be on the square where they start).
En Passant - A pawn can take an opponent's pawn by moving to the square directly above or below it (both pawns have to be on the same file one square apart from each other, the opponent's pawn has to be moved 2 squares forward in one move from where it started and the other pawn has to be on it's fifth rank).
If your like me and first don’t understand a word he says rewatch the video at a playback speed of .75 he speaks slower and it’s easier to understand
Wait a second, this is not a refresher of those rules?
Not covered: more ways the game can end in a draw other than stalemate
Three move rule: a player can claim a draw if the same position occured three times. It doesn't have to be in a row.
Fifty move rule: a player can claim a draw if there is no capture or pawn move during the last 50 moves.
Insufficient material: both players don't have enough material to checkmate either way.
Draw by agreement: a game can end in a draw if both players agree to end the game in a draw
I don't know, there's so much to remember :o
Yeh im practising it from now on! Im watching these video to learn and im playing it real
+Danny K. Shamo Sorry to break it to you but mastering it is extremely difficult. Pretty much all top players in the world (GMs) were at least expert level tournament players when they were children. Even reaching 'expert' level can take many years if you just started playing as an adult.
Lost me after "Chessss, how to play"
lol and this was just the basics... He didn't explain the value of the pieces, pins, forks, discovered checks, etc... Chess surely has quite the learning curve... But once you get to understand things and are able to pull off tactics in your games, it is very satisfying and a lot of fun...
I have expected it to go:
"Chess, how to play. The rules are the same as regular chess."
End of video
"for a refresh os these rules, check out ths video"
*points for a link of the same video*
@@gamerhurley and i was pulling atention to the fact that i'm writing in a second language, mistakes may hapen, sorry for not being perfect, mf
to be more precise :
if a pawn reaches the other side of the board, it has to be changed into one of the following pieces : queen, rook, knight bishop, of its own color
there is another restriction to castle : the king and the rook must be on the same row, meaning it cannot be done with a pawn that just got promoted to a rook
@@berensteinbear5916 there are some rare cases where you have to "under promote" if you actually want to win, for example when promoting to a queen would lead to a stalemate
@@berensteinbear5916 Actually the main other one is knight bc occasionally promoting to knight can be checkmate
For some reason, I feel like life is a game of chess. There's so many things we have to know and if we miss one step and make a wrong move, it fucks us up in the end..
life is like chess where you search up a video tutorial and still have no idea what you're doing
.... I still can't figure it out. :\
Maybe because he vomited out 40 words a second, making it impossible for the information to stick.
The rules are the same, except foe these changes, you know the drill, check out the video.
this was absolutely the best video. Its the shortest but the most informative, i've watched it twice and now im certain how to play. Thank you. Other 20 minute video from large channels don't compare lol.
Chess: How to play, The rules are the same as regular chess expect for these changes, For the refresher of these rules check out this video
That wasn’t hard to comprehend. I’ve ordered a chess board so I’ll take this knowledge into the playing board. Thank you!
You have a hella lot to learn. Openings, basic checkmate patterns, etc. But just slow down.
@@PhDoggo I didn’t ask you because you don’t sound new to chess, how are you doing (person is my account on another device btw)
"X, How to play. The rules are the same as regular chess except for these changes; For a refresher of those rules, Check out this video"
I was never too interested in chess....then I saw HighSchool DxD. I thought I should finally look into it.
I'm about to create a chess club in california Tennyson High school as a Junior. I have questions, how is the chess club functioning in your school?
I'm watching this video to see if it's to much information for beginners to handle, which it is.
A quick and clear explanation, you saved me a good amount of time. Thank you.
This video is the most BASIC video I've seen. It does take time to learn and memorize where each piece can and cannot move. Repetition is the best way to learn and memorize the rules is to have someone slowly take you through the basics. Remember, this is NOT checkers. You'll get the hang of the rules quickly. I always test a new player by asking them what they can do with any given piece by setting up a few of opening movies to get them acquainted with their options. Give this game the time that it deserves!
I have to play in a chess tournament tomorrow. Im watching this now
Except for these changes
The rules are the same as regular chess, except this is regular chess. For a refresher of these rules, check out this video.
It’s so nice to be able to refresh our brains on the basics of playing chess every so often
The instructions were on point,thank you I somehow forgot the rules, thank you for a quick recap.
en passant happens because usually before the pawn 1st move mechanism, the pawn will start by moving 1 square, in this case the other pawn can take it into the same square like when the en passant occur
Just finished the 5D chess video, and it's always good to have the basics again.
Ah yes, this started the whole “the rules are the same as regular chess” thing
Boutta be a long one, okay so Learning to play chess can seem intimidating at first, but it is a rewarding and engaging game to master. Below are the rules of chess and some tips to help you along the way:
1. Board and pieces: The chessboard has 64 squares, alternating between black and white. You will need 16 pieces -- one king, one queen, two rooks, two knights, two bishops, and eight pawns. Each piece moves in a unique way. The objective of the game is to checkmate your opponent, which means to put their king in check and have no legal move to escape.
2. Moves: Each piece moves differently, and there are rules to each movement. The king can move one square in any direction, the queen can move in any direction as many moves as you want, the rooks move horizontally or vertically, knights move in an L-shape, bishops move diagonally, and pawns move forward one square. Pieces capture another piece by moving to the square the other piece is standing on.
3. Special moves: There are a few special moves to keep in mind, such as castling, en passant, and pawn promotion. Castling allows you to move your king two squares to the right or left and then move your rook to the other side of the king. En passant only applies to pawns and allows you to capture another pawn that moves forward two squares in one move. Pawn promotion allows a pawn to become any other piece except a king, and most often players choose to promote pawns to queens.
4. Opening and middle game: It is important to have a strong opening to set yourself up for a strong middle game. The opening is the first few moves of the game, and the middle game is where you start to develop your pieces and plan out a strategy. It is essential to control the center of the board and not make too many pawn moves in the beginning.
5. End game: The end game is the final few moves of the game where you can gain a significant advantage over your opponent. It is vital to keep track of the number of pieces remaining, especially if there is a possibility for a checkmate.
6. Strategy: The best chess players can think many moves ahead and anticipate their opponent's moves. It is essential to understand your opponent's strategy and plan accordingly. It is imperative to have a plan throughout the game and stick to it.
7. Practice: The more you
Turns out I've been playing wrong my whole life. Back in my day, I was taught that you have to start by moving the king and he's the only one that can move. You only win by taking the other teams pawns.
Thank you. This really helped.
You did such an excellent job at explaining this game, I’ve always been so confused! Lol thank you!
Who is else is here just because they want to know how to play?
Thanks man! I had no ideas how to play Chess, surprisingly, I won my first game thanks to you!
Chess peices:
The rook
The knight
The bishop
The King

Thank for this very direct, no fluff. I appreciate it.
POV: you wanted a refresher of the chess rules
Whenever I play chess, I would imagine that this is a Medieval War between British VS French, xD.
U can't learn this game in a 4 min video it has to be learned through experience
Concise and nice to watch. Thank you!
I want to learn Chess after watching The Queens Gambit😆
You will get the rules, eventually, once you keep either watching this or memorizing on how the pieces move and winning the game.
1:40 So we back in the mine
This helps a lot!!! Thanks! 😊
Surprisingly simple and easy, thanks!
thank you. you got me interested in chess
This is really fucking hard.
Umm.. not really. In my experience it only takes one game to teach somebody chess. To become a great player is an entirely different matter all on it's own.
I've taught around 30 people how to play and after the first game, they all agree. Plus I had the same premonitions when somebody taught me the game.
Luis H. I am 10 years old and I just realised that Chess isn't hard. I could've learned if I watched this video before but the first thing you need to know is the Movements then proceed to the others. Strategy always helps a lot.
Thank you for such a comprehensive explanation 👍👍
me: playing chess for six years
also me: hm, this video seens interesting
“The rules are the same as regular chess”
Who still has no idea how to play? 😂
Kara Edwards same here, will watch a lot more times and see if I get it. The game has to many rules.
Pawn: moves 1 or 2 squares @ 2nd step 1 square,to capture,moves 1 square cross.
Knight: moves L shape any direction except cross.
Rook: moves horizontal and vertical.
Bishop: moves diagonally. Example=black bishop,black squares,white bishop,white squares.
Queen:moves horizontal,vertical and diagonally.Example=rook+bishop=queen.
King:1 square at any side.
Check: to treat the king.
Promotion:pawn reach the last rank become queen,rook,bishop, knight.
Out of check:king’s move out of check,different piece to block the attack,capturing a piece that has an attacking.
Checkmate: no move to protect your king.
Stalemate: no move for king to defend but king is not in a check.
Thanks for sharing. Very useful tutorial.
I'm here because I'm older and have come to terms with the fact that I probably do have the patience to play Chess now. Also... I've literally never played Chess in my life, mostly because I thought I was too stupid, lol.
Nice one thank you mate really helpful!!
This was surprisingly helpful ✊
so glad that twitch (Hikaru, Levy, Botez, naroditsky, etc) and Queens Gambit brought chess back into the lime light. its a fascinating game, and some times at first glance can seem simple.
Excellent demonstration.. thank you..
I haven’t played chess since I was a kid. As I got older I immediately forgot how to play it. Glad I came here so I can try relearn
"The rules are the same as regular chess, except for the following changes:"
This is a fantastic explanation but for me it is still clear as mud!
Excellent refresher. Thanks!
Anyone else disappointed he didn't say
"The rules are the same as regular chess..."
A short and helpful video... unlike those complicated 40min tutorials
Thank u 😊
Finally watching this for a refresher on the rules
I started playing chess today and this dude explained everything so quickly
0:11 he do be beatboxing for 0.0001 nanosecond
With castling, the rook you want to castle with cannot be a promoted one.
Man....you have my respect.
RESPECT++
Good tutorial.
This is harder than I thought it would be.
2:33 You do not need to say 'check' when you attck your opponent's king
11 months late, but in fact in any serious game you're not even ALLOWED to. It's a quiet game.
seeing this video gave me a spurge of nostalgia. good thing UA-cam decided to recommend me this video again for some reason.
I love this video. No bullshit, just straight to the point.
Imma stick to checkers...
This video is informative. There are many people who need this kind of video.
Well this is the 1st time I've actually heard all the rules in one sitting. Well done
This doesnt seem to be for beginners. Im still lost.
pandulce Here:
Bishops- can only move diagonally
Rooks can only move straight either left or right or front. It can't move diagonally.
Knights can move in a form of an 'L'
Kings can move any direction BUT can only move one at a time.
Queens are one powerful ones, they can move in any direction.
Pawns can move 2 times to their front but only in their first move. In the next moves, it can move forward one at a time. It can not move diagonally, left or right. If you want to eat with a pawn, it can only it ONE time in a diagonal form.
----------------------------------------------
The word 'Eat' in Chess is different. Try to search it up. I am not good at explaining, Im so sorry.
pandulce but I honestly don’t know if he explains it well because I already know how to play chess
There was me thinking there was a piece called 'the horse'.
Tommy 😂😂😂 that cracked me up
Tommy
DAMMIT TOMMY GET OUT!
Anupam Dasgupta
Tommy I did too😭
