"the point of drawback chess is to hopefully put everyone on the same level." Eric, being carried by his opponent's drawback:

2:07 eric rosen has never seen an ant is canon

Keep playing drawback! I love it

Game 9: Until that last move I was so sure the opponent couldn't move his rooks. Game 12: Seemed like the opponent couldn't capture with pawns, but amazingly it turned out to be something different.

''my favorite color is not blundering mate in one'' LOL, I think that's my new favorite color too

"Pork on a skewer"... That's a 1st! [smile]

this variant is quite interesting. Knowing a lot of theory and tactics help so much, because some drawbacks you need to be agressive, others you need to be defensive. Some you want a lot of options.

And the pawn storm in game #3... Wow! [amazed grin]

Ahaha the amount of times eric said one more game was quite amusing. Very glad he kept playing though

2:41:12 "Nice" - Eric Rosen

Oh nice chess games that were played on my wedding day!

Alternator vs flatterer would be a funny matchup.

I feel like you overcomplicated game 5, you could have achieved the reshuffling relatively straightforwardly

I feel the same. But then I thought it might be a professional player's urge to play every move in a useful way rather than wasting them for the drawback.

drawback chess is the future

I have had fischer random drawback before and it really isn't that bad. You trade off a peice or two and then waste a few tempi moving back and then you play normal chess.

Do you have to ensure that none of your non-pawn pieces get captured before move 20?

@@ruanpingshan No, that is what makes the drawback not so bad. You can trade off pieces which makes "randomizing" your back row much easier.

Isn't Nxh2 super strong on 1:54:35? Threatening mate and other nice stuff

Instructive? Destructive? The only ways to play chess in my opinion 😌

If you have the drawback that you lose if you have more pieces than your opponent, what would the result be if you had the same amount of pieces and then took the king? You win and lose at exactly the same time. Edit: I didn't expect Eric to think of the same glitch in the matrix. Perhaps a tear gets made in the space time continuum and we all die

You win. It doesn't check until the start of your turn. That is why his opponent who had the same drawback lost after Eric didn't take back in their game, not immediately.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who was having SERIOUS Déjà vu! I'm like...I swear I've seen the Hippo V.S Crab battle before and this commentary. I kept wondering if I went back in time.

Some of Eric's drawback opponents were completely braindead

Like No 4. @1:02:47 Why did he play Nx, giving Eric easy and care-free queening in three moves. He should've played Nc3, stopping him to push e pawn. With Eric low on time he should at least try complicating situation, you never know.

1:26:37 This plan would be really awkward if the pawn just advanced to promote instead of taking the knight. The bishop is pinned. Edit: He saw it after game. 😅
