What is a Zugzwang in Chess?

Oooh okay, I first thought the pawn was moving in the other direction.

Magnus: I skip my move

Commentators: Another brilliant gambit by the world champion! Sacrificing his rights.

In the wise words of Spencer Reid: It describes the point in a game when a player realizes he’ll inevitably be checkmated.

See, I thought black was moving up. That messed up everything.

Beautiful chess board and pieces 😍. Someday I’ll hopefully upgrade from my H.O.S. Library Grandmaster set.

The move is not called zugzwang, the move puts the opponent in zugzwang. I think.

[benbenifits]

If black moves the knight to g5 and you take, is queening still guaranteed?

[NotExactlyScatler]

Youtube, seriously i learned zugzwag. I don't need to watch any more zugzwag videos. Pls let me watch something else

[acebenedict]

That’s not what zigzwang means, zugzwang means basically you outplay your oppenent so badly and force him into a corner, he eventually gets to a point where any move he makes is gonna lose the game

[linkmaster]

Ok that board and pieces are just gorgeous mind sharing the name with me?
