I remember I used to play this animated computer chess game when I was pretty young. It helped me learn a lot of the basics and some tactics (my greatest memory was learning what en passant and castling were).

Can't for the life of me remember what it was called.

BATTLE CHESS?!

Something about this is triggering a super distant memory... if someone figures it out I'll <3 4eva

I'm remembering like the queen would animate when you capture and like dagger the piece in the back.

definitely battle chess. it was for the NES and old computers. all the pieces animated when they captured another piece.

p.s. heh that was your 5k post

mord, in case you weren't aware already, I have no idea what a good chess opening is lol

I do know that for like the first ~10 turns, you want to move different pieces if possible. But beyond that, I feel like such a noob.

Because you ARE a noob and you need more games to figure it out.

It's like LoL, no one ever told you how to play out your lane after first tower goes down, but there's a clear difference between good players and bad players in this phase of the game.

fuck that shit, dance class was awesome. tons of qt college girls.

Normal dance I don't mind, a credit is a credit. And I look pretty damn feminine sometimes, I have to say.

But this teacher judges us on skill instead of effort, so my being horrible at it is killing me. She's so angry all the time x.x

Also, since it's a mandatory credit, it's filled up with mostly guys who want to get it out of the way. So it smells like shittttttttttttt

Since I took the tower, clearly I won lane and am entitled to a win. If not it's my teams fault for being shitters.

The Ruy Lopez is one of the most common openings in Chess.

http://chess.about.com/od/openings/tp/TopOpenings.htm

Other good openings to know, though stick with the top few. I'm personally partial to the Reti, and KID/KIA, but that's a very complex opening to pull off. I fk it up often enough lol

For Hearthstone, should my first crafted legendary be LJ (because my main deck is Warlock), Ragnaros, or Sylvanas (I think she might be outdated now )? Or I guess any other good legendary too like Ysera.

I just ended up crafting a bunch of expert level cards that I needed instead of blowing it on a legendary.

And murlocs. Can't forget to craft those.

? Past the tutorial, you never have to play against bots if you don't feel like it (at least I don't think). Definitely not worth grinding out all of the basic cards on them. Pick like 2-3 decks you want to use, and then dust the cards that aren't for those decks. Ezpz.

Edit: Teut pls, past the fourth volume all of Naruto was a dick measuring contest. Also why would you remind me of that Futurama episode ;;

I didn't like that Futurama episode. For some reason it literally gets brought up in every single Reddit thread some how even when it's a totally unrelated topic.

See I did that, I have murk-eye and shit. Then I tried it and realized how much I hated cheese so I dusted most of my murlocks in the unholy name of the zombie lord Cixah.

I was grinding out the basic cards because I didn't want to play against real people and just get stomped. But then I got bored so I stopped playing anyway lol.
