Why do I like variant games.

Chess variantChess
Three check, Atomic, Antichess, Crazyhouse, Chess960, KOTH, Horde, Racing Kings.

Hello today I will tell you why I like Varient games. BTW the reasons are the rules.

Three check
Three check is a very fun variant that you just have to three check which I don't win often.

Atomic
Atomic is a super cool variant which you have to checkmate or take pieces that are next to your opponents king. That is very fun.

Antichess
Antichess is a game where you need to lose all of your pieces even your king.

Crazyhouse
Crazyhouse is a game where you still need to checkmate but the pieces you take you get to use.

Chess960
Chess960 is a game which you have to checkmate your oppenet but the pieces are set up diffrently every game.

KOTH
KOTH is short for king of the hill. you would need to get your king in the center to win king of the hill.

Horde
Horde is when white has only lots of pawns. but black is normal. in horde black needs to take all of whites pieces. and white needs to do checkmate.

And last but not least RK
RK is short for Racing kings. in rk you need to get your king up to the top before your oppenet does.

Thanks for reading
