The mythical move where you combine bishop and horsey into a queen?

Knishop, yeah I've heard of the move. I believe it's just a legend though

I thought it was a pawn :P

That's a bishop, not a pawn, but regardless, I don't imagine that white has much of a chance

This post is about gaslighting and I'm pretty sure, it always was a pawn. Always.

Ok when the bishop is actually a bishop it’s checkmate in 19 instead so I suppose white holds on for longer at least? chess 2.0

The point of it was that it became a much bigger pain in the ass to win than it initially seemed. Also, your 19 moves is if you don't mess up at all. If it gets stretched to 50 moves, it's a stalemate.
