I found the two hardest drawbacks in drawback chess!

Sort:
Penguin4096

They are

  1. Head and Brainless: You move the piece type that the RNG tells you to move.
  2. Deer in The Headlights: You can't moved pieces being attacked.

How I figured this out:

I kept playing John Chess bot, who is higher rated than me. I kept playing the drawback he just had until I reached these 2 hardest drawbacks.

btw, Drawback chess is a variation of chess, if you don't know. https://drawbackchess.com

yeah, and even worse, head and brainless is luck-based, which means you can't even have a plan

I have not heard of "Noble Steed" but I know the others

Taking turns is that you cannot move a type of piece until you have moved every piece of that type.

Cowardly means that any piece being attack must retreat backwards

I may not be right as I haven't played in a while

noble steed means you can only move pieces next to knights (and knights)

"Hold Them Back" is the hardest drawback, and it's not even close. This one is legitimately impossible unless your opponent throws the game. Even if your opponent doesn't know what your drawback is, it's still something that pretty much every player will do naturally at some point.

I think it got removed because they decided (more like figured out) it was way too unfair, but I could be wrong.

It didn't get removed.

leaps and bounds (you can't move a piece adjacent to where it was) is pretty tough too.

i don't remember because I haven't played db chess in a while + most people don't see insanely hard drawbacks, but I think it was something to do with pieces not crossing into opponent's territory or something?

not sure, kinda forgot ngl

I think "Hold Them Back" means if an opponent's pawn enters into your territory, you lose. I've only seen this drawback in a video.

I've done this one, its actually not that hard (Hold Them Back), all you gotta do is make a fortress
