"High end player prefer the bishop, I prefer the knight". I feel that

[BucsMadden]

This is so relatable I can feel the bishop coming across the board

Its also important to note that a knight is the only piece in which it cannot be blocked for a check. There are 3 restrictions on every piece that puts a king in check: The king moves, another piece blocks, or the piece gets taken. The knight only has 2 of these

The knight is the only piece in chess you can’t block a check from.

Fun fact: A knight is the only piece in chess that can threaten to capture a queen without being in the range of her.

King when Bishop delivers check - “Hey, block it mofos”.

Still depends, the bishop is Hella sneaky sometimes and is busted when it pins pieces to a queen or even the king, but forks with the knight are game changing

It depends largely on the situation. In the early game, knights tend to be better because they can easily cause a lot of threats. During the late game, bishops are usually better because the board is more open giving the Bishops more room to move around.

You, you are worth more than a knight or a bishop

[karazsteel]

Knights are my favourite piece. Being able to fork and defend multiple pieces from safety is pretty potent. The other pieces tend to put themselves in threat range of what they want to take themselves.

I remember when I was young my father always kept forking me with knights, so now I instinctively pay VERY close attention when my opponent moves his knights

Knight is the only piece in game whose check can't be blocked, you need to either take the knight somehow or run away.
Its ability is one of it's kind . Not to mention it can hover over the board (not giving a damn to anyone who stands in its way) and pin multiple pieces at once. Theoretically speaking it can threaten 8 pieces at once. Playing it right and it can be a Knight-mare to your opponent.

[Lughable]

The knight, the only piece that can attack without a direct line of sight, jump over pieces is just such a huge differentiation from every other pieces

[kalix_]

Knight is that unpredictable guy you never know what to expect until its already there. Bishop, on the other hand, is the one often ignored, that at one moment during the match, that guy is sniping you from a mile away and you never know its coming.

and then he goes on to criticize 1000 level players for giving up a bishop for a knight

[SarahEve]

Knight - wide range but short distance
Bishop - long distance but limited range

[AlanCuler]

Here's the best way to put it, the knight is a close range smg and the bishop a CROSSMAPPING SNIPER

[Sciencedoneright]

"The knight is extremely elusive"
The invisible bishop 100 kilometres away: 🗿

and this is why deez knights are simply better than all pieces.
