Sort:
TROOLLFACE

add a few majors or something, idk. bishop/rook/queen traps as white are extremely useful as well

I use all knights in auto mate, very good

all knights

The best setups that I've found is pawns, knights, and 1-2 queens. Going all knights versus all knights + 1-2 queens is hard to win. But all knights vs all queens is winning.

All queens is also good.

miademi

I do pawns, rooks, bishops and knights- no queens

Blitz3100

I like using 10 pawns 1 queen and the rest knights with 8 pawns on the eighth rank

I usually use this setup irrespective of the colour I am playing with. I mostly win with this.

oh yeah, knights r OP as well

I was going four knights and four rooks for a while, which took me up to about 1700.  Four rooks are insanely fluid for the engine to calculate with an open endgame - they easily beat their points worth in queens because they stay connected and can just dominate the squares they need

Automate is strange and pointless. I set it up with a normal arrangement. The engine made idiotic moves and lost.

yep quite often the machine does some stupid moves like blundering a rook...

The best setup depends on the opponents setup. I often like to create a safety zone for my king, put my rooks on open files, two bishop fianchettos and a queen.
