Damn the intro HAHAHAHAHA
The only way I am spending more than 100$ on a chess set is if it 1. Was an official board that was used at the world championship or 2 it was some thing like napoleons set currently in the Biltmore …( yes I know those set would go for way more than 100$ lol)
The set is clearly ironic
you can see the peices are modeled after the growth stages of a mushroom
The thing that I really hate about the melty set is that it doesn't seem to understand what makes a chess set so iconic. It's about simplicity and elegance, and clean lines. For a high end chess set, you are looking for beautiful craftsmanship which means handmade pieces that are also extremely precise and well repeated. Chess sets made in glass or steel can be beautiful and striking. A chess set made in rare wood can certainly justify a high cost. But making pieces that are deliberately weird and ugly is not "interesting".
It's not even a conversation starter, because what conversation do you have? "Oh yeah, I just bought it from Louis Vuitton". Compare to "Ah yes this was owned by grandfather" or "I had this set made by an amazing local woodworker" or even "I designed it myself".
LMFAO, I played on the hungover set just last Saturday. I blundered my bishop because I thought my opponents bishop was a pawn.
The chess set that comes with checker pieces is for people who don’t actually play chess
Hell, any chess set you get at Wal-Mart or Target is for people who don’t actually play chess—says the guy whose first proper home chess set when he started playing in school tournaments came from Toys ‘R Us… … and came with checker pieces
I like the bronze sculpture one. You want the pawns to look dumb and dusted with life as you sac them.
The typography one doesn't hurt the eyes for Not Point Two Seconds.
The Dragons are great but the glass should be fibre and the pieces differentiable
5:03 Could the checker pieces be for when you promote a pawn? Like a placeholder token. I imagine that'd be easier than boxing a bunch of extra chess pieces.
The gold set is also set up incorrectly lol.
I own the glass set, it ain't that bad actually
Omg! Hikaru hates the high art set with the heat of the burning sun. But the dragon set designed for early teen boys to find cool is hikaru’s favorite. Makes sense? The GM is a boy in mans clothing.
