rockthatlookslikeafacerock asked: In any situation where a pawn can take down a king, the king can take down the pawn first. The pawn has to be moved into position to take the king, since the king legally can't move into position to be taken by a pawn. Kings are very powerful late game because of their consistency. Unlike any other piece, since you lose otherwise, you can count on having it be there. Most "fundamental" endgames use the king offensively and its considered flawed play to leave the king running in the endgame.
Yes but you’re missing the point which is that the king strictly only moves one space, no matter what, while a pawn does move once but if theres someone on the two diagonal spaces in front, they CAN eat em. King can’t and risks getting eaten.
Do ya see my point here
the king can take things on diagonals though? in most late game instances after your pawn structure has been eaten, a king is much more versitile, since it can always move forewards and backwards.
a pawn can get upgraded :y
Also a king can’t take a pawn if it would put him in check, like if two pawns were diagonal from each other, thus placing king in a situation where taking one pawn would cause him to be defeated by a second pawn.
okay but these fake starters were like… eerily close
Actually it’s because shortly before sun and moon were announced, nintendo trademarked names which roughly translated to grass owl, water seal and fire cat so the people who knew that knew somewhat what the starters would probably be
