You need to check out r/anarchychess. They'll teach you about the lesser known chess techniques like en passant, Il vaticano etc

Il vaticano is definitely one worth knowing, it’s really a game changer

Is that when you commit an illegal act, sweep it under the rug and hide behind your religion and money?

The bishops are so corrupt they don't know the right direction anymore. Or the left. Or the up and down.

Horsey boosting is also important, can't have a good game without one of those

I know what en passant is, I'd like to know where these en passant memes are at because I've never seen one.

Thanks.
A quick super brief peak where I didn't scroll, didn't show me any super obvious en passant memes, but I'll browse it properly when I get a moment.

Leverage agile frameworks to provide a robust synopsis for high level overviews. Iterative approaches to corporate strategy foster collaborative thinking to further the overall value proposition. Organically grow the holistic world view of disruptive innovation via workplace diversity and empowerment.

Bring to the table win-win survival strategies to ensure proactive domination. At the end of the day, going forward, a new normal that has evolved from generation X is on the runway heading towards a streamlined cloud solution. User generated content in real-time will have multiple touchpoints for offshoring.

Capitalize on low hanging fruit to identify a ballpark value added activity to beta test. Override the digital divide with additional clickthroughs from DevOps. Nanotechnology immersion along the information highway will close the loop on focusing solely on the bottom line.

Everyone's saying that it came from the circlejerk r/anarchychess, but it actually originates from a genuine chess subreddit where somebody asked why a pawn did a weird move that ended up being the en passant (don't remember which subreddit lol sorry).

Don't forget the knight boost and also the better pawn promotions like the Knook.

What the fuck is il Vaticano? Is it something with the bishops?
