Next challenge: There is this engine called Blue Marlin that is designed to ONLY play attacking and aggressive moves. Put it up against Nelson, Magni and Stockfish.
Next challenge: chess against Martin, but in each turn you can play every move EXCEPT for the top engine move! This means: 1. the only way to checkmate your opponent is if you have 2 possible mate-in-1s in one turn 2. if you have 1 legal move, the opponent wins!
1:45 "Should I sac the queen?" If you did (A5 to A3, followed by Stockfish doing B2 to A3), then you could have retaken with the Rook (A8 to A3). The Rook is now effectivly behind enemy lines. Move him to A2 next, and you can slaughter pauns at your leisure (or just checkmate if stockfish doesn't move another 2 rank pawn)
Idea: Chess vs Martin, but you have Stockfish showing you the best moves. But the catch is, you can't make any of those moves. (You can go either top 3, 2 or just the top move).
5:00 as a 1k, I knew that knight move was a large blunder. You lost out on free pawns just pawn taking with queen and instead you tired to force a mate that wasn't then close to there. A knight and queen can't check mate a king alone when king is in middle of the board.
1:38 you should have gone Knight-d5. If he takes it you get your Bishop into the back rank, you've traded a Knight for 2 Pawns and more of his pawns are threatened.
Good point. The rook file is white’s weak point. Concentration of time and material on a queenside assault with sacrifices to open that rook file… rather than the more opportunistic sacrifices he seem to have been making…allocating time to kingside only as needed…
0:42 Horde Chess Lives! 3:43 and 13:05 Sacrifice .... the ROOOOOOOOK!!! 14:55 This reminds me of the video game Space Invaders. 22:44 Stockfish randomly changes the eval bar to scare Nelson. 29:39 "Don't play 'Hope Chess'!"
I loved this challenge, especially how eval bar was totally swinging on both sides😂 One small alteration for this challenge :- from 33rd pawn onwards, fill the pawns on the first rank (next to the king) Maybe this time the pawns will take longer to create a threat for the queen and rook, surely would make a difference, worth trying
It would be interesting to see how engines like alphazero compare in this challenge. The machine learning trained engines might struggle evaluating positions which are not possible to achieve since it would put into question if its strategies do in fact generalize to these types of positions.
Next challenge : play against stock fish but you have a switch potion that can change stockfish to martin. Every time you loose , you can add 1 more potion. If you win , you may try with a stronger bot.
Challenge: Play against Martin, but every 2 out of your 3 moves should a bad move/blunder etc. If you win, switch to a higher rated bot and reach the highest rated bot you can in this challenge.
Challenge: Copycat. You can only move what Martin moves. If he moves a pawn, you must move your pawn on that file. If that's not possible, move any pawn you want. If he moves a bishop, you must move the bishop of the same color. If that's not possible, move the other bishop. If he moves a rook, move any rook you want. Same with knights. If a copycat move isn't possible, you can play whatever you want until a copycat becomes possible again. Once Martin only has a king left, you can move anything you want (otherwise you couldn't checkmate)
The only way to win here is to break through the pawns. Once you have broken through it's easy as they can't fight backwards. Just make very sure they don't get promoted.
At 7:27, Stockfish went Kd1 and you called it a weird, but it was a defense against the mating threat of Qc1#. The only moves that protect against that mate are Kd1, e3, and e4. By going Kd1, stockfish also defends the c pawn. The other two possible moves (e3 and e4) lose it because after Qc1+, Ke2 would be forced, allowing Qxc2. Therefore Kd1 was the only move that both defended against mate and also defended the c pawn, so it’s not all that strange of a move.
this is similar to horde chess, except horde chess white's side do not have the king. Maybe Nelson can challenge stockfish about atomic, spell, giveaway, 3 check and king of the hill.
@@blue_red_screen no? This position would never occur in a real chess game. Sure, it’s still played with the standard chess rules, but it’s very far removed from normal chess. Humans can adapt to these changes without too much trouble, but engines never test on these types of positions, so they struggle to evaluate them correctly, especially nnue engines
It's either overvaluing or undervaluing all the pawns abilities. Not taking pieces is bad strategy. It's leaving talkable pieces for position, when it's pointless. I think it's undervaluing the pawns as a whole, and just as a 1
there is game like this called horde this game is white have 36 pawn and no king and the black have all his pieces black Wins wen take all white pawns this game only on lichess
Idea for a challenge: Stockfish has the standard setup. You have standard setup except replace your knights with extra queens. If that's too hard, then also replace the bishops.
I see your strategy now: Pawns are weak. Just breach anywhere and they are defenseless in their rear. It's a race of whether AI promotes queens first or the player kills everything first.
After stockfish promotes on g8 it can push the pawn on c6. White can then promote with either the c7 or d7 pawns, either way the new queen is protected by a pawn that can promote after black captures it.
I dont understand why you dont exploit the a and h pawns by blockading the pawns with a rook and then sacing one rook to collapse the whole side of the board. If Stockfish pushes, then you would get a free a or h pawn. That's how I beat vs Stockfish 34 pawns Like at 29:38 Rxa4 would've allowed you to break through or at least get a free pawn, instead you ended up saving every piece with no positional advantage
I think even starting with 28 pawns is actually winning for white, but AIs are trained by analyzing real games. They have no idea how to properly evaluate position with more than 8 pawns on each side because such game doesn't exist. In order to win this, white needs to think outside the box and come up with tactics and strategies never seen before. This is something akin to general intelligence. And AIs can't do that... yet.
Not Stockfish. Komodo Why don't you get the fairy stockfish or whatever it is called you know the one that is designed to play non default starting positions
