"not so op anymore"
*literally able to capture the king in its spot and is completely safe*

[AirmaskM]

Should have named the double king the dictator

[pragyankumari]

Chess traps be like

What should I do with this Lets add knight movement

[Zeenzhan]

Missed the opportunity to call the double rook as "twin towers"

[ElderEagle]

How OP do you want your pieces?
ChessTraps: Yes

[gengarnn]

here's my commentary on this.

pawn:
mega pawn: it works ok, this just discourages the use of the double move.
knight:
camel: this is slightly different to the knight, so it could sometimes be unoptimal when it evolves and can ruin your plans.
double knight: you overstated how op this is. its ok, but same thing with it can ruin your plans with the camel.
unicorn: this piece idea is pretty cool, nothing much else to say
rose: this piece is worse than the unicorn. not much thought here
bishop:
checker bishop: pretty good idea, better than the normal bishop too but still similar enough where it isn't annoying.
cylinder bishop: to me it feels like its about as good as the checker bishop, if not worse so not great
bomber: this feels pretty insane but not actually too op. kinda reminds me of atomic chess

The Clash Royale evolutions have made their way into chess 💀

[TheNeonLynx]

Ok but what if I wrote a quick game that just implements this gameplay so people can try it? Like as a website I mean.

You should add a rule that a Double king needs to be checkmated twice.

[Albaniangovernment]

Bishop being a suicide bomber is way to realistic

[CarrieSun-ndxu]

The pawn already evolve


By promotion

[EnderLord]

That last piece should have a giant hand.

[BertLeyson]

2:26 So basically a Chinese Checkers King?

[djangel]

This is a really cool variant but the board is so small and there are so many ridiculous pieces that can checkmate the king easily that it's hard to see multiple different evolutions

[francescomoretti]

Idea to make the bomber bishop even stronger: when it gets captured, it explodes and k1lls the piece who captured it

[arthvitbansal]

The perfect bishop evolution chain
1) Bishop- normal
2) Checkerbishop- you explained here
3) Archbishop- Bishop+Knight
4) Washop- 1 square orthogonally then like a bishop in the same direction
5) Paladin- Bishop+Knightrider (knightrider repeats a knight movement in the same direction until it gets blocked)
6) Mega Washop- Washop+Normal bishop

[jossflores]

A lot of these look pretty fun except for the bombers and the godlike end evolutions

[beeper]

1:49 Rose is too op, it's attacking the king already

crafting chess: capture piece can craft to your unit and there a commander which every 5 move it will spawn a pawn next to commander and add shop instead craft to your unit you got point according to the chess point maybe add lucky bomb nuclear bomb a disappear bomb also can craft ice which piece cannot move how long use
