    The best play for the AI would be to sacrifice one of the better units by taking the rook immediately but it didn't which allowed Tyler to chain the takes. The AI doesn't look very far ahead, and arguably only looks 1 move ahead or else it would see this cascade and try to prevent it.

    @@xicufwm I feel like some movements would be kinda hard to show in a graphic. Like the Pegasus can travel a very long distance so the graphic would have to be very big and in general they would probably have to be big to show the difference between infinite and finite move lengths for some units. Text descriptions also help explain the technicalities of each piece’s movement which can tell you things like exactly how it might get blocked by obstacles. However it would still be a great addition and simplify some pieces massively. There’s a piece that wasn’t in this video but I found in the demo called the Blade Dancer and it’s description was like “moves 2 spaces vertically and up to 2 spaces horizontally or vice versa” which was pretty confusing. It was a lot simpler to understand once I saw visually that it basically just moved on the edges of a square around itself with side lengths of 5.

    it would be better if they animated the added move like animated the move to the portal first then after they go through the portal, or like a pegasus that has 2 L move. it'll make the game look more refined and pleasing to look. and it will make the game a lot less confusing when they introduce a complex piece to the board.

    I'm pretty sure you're right. The other thing is that the portal adds one square of movement to what it feels like it should: the Viking looks like it can only reach the portal but wouldn't have moves left to go down, but that's not how the portal works, reaching it is enough.

    17:30 This was a much better fork than you thought it was, because if Black moves Andromeda, your Fool immediately takes the black General. The Fool seems hard to use, but it seems like it can sort of "pin" very powerful pieces from anywhere on the board, by being that move away from the enemy General.
