Do you think this could be used in another way? lichess.org/study/rGeBVqvn/4p4IRE91 what I mean is that could this be intergrated in main sicillian?
i do not think so,why white should move his king in an unhelpful square at move 2?
Yeah, it could be used as an example how not to play chess.
Yes, this is beautiful. First, whites move their king for no reason and then blacks give a free piece. I think this was played in Capablanca-Lasker 1936, if I'm not mistaken.
New chess variant: King of the Sicil
Can someone fill me in on how this is a trap?
lol
Couldn't find the trap, if You take the knight, pawn takes back aiming your knight, if you move the King, he may take the knight first, avoiding the double attack, and there are no different options since is check.
But first of all, I wonder why would someone start moving the King on the second move?
@edit
Now I see the trap, if you open the diagonal for the bishop to check, you win the queen
Still, it depends on the mistake of the opponent, don't seem a healthy choice to close the way to your queen and bishop, to push the King to the center in the early game and losing the castle right, don't you think that too?

The only trap I can think of that would be similar is this lichess.org/analysis/rnbqk2r/pp3ppp/2p1p3/3p4/1bPPn3/1PN2N2/P2QPPPP/R1B1KB1R_w_KQkq_-
Of course this requires bad play from white, but it's more likely to happen than with a king on e2.

I don't think it is natural for black to play the check with the knight because developing fast with a nonsense white king would be the normal plan.
