I've got a challenge for you. Post a public forum showing how you can refute the bongcloud. And do it no matter what white/black plays. Then, write a 5 sentence paragraph on why it works.

I am a fairly new player. I have no idea what the bongcloud maneuver is. Can you show a diagram of the opening sequence on a chess board for those of us that dont know what it is?

it is moving the king forward within the first 7 moves and then only moving backwards if it is an absolute must. If the king gets to the 8th rank, you win.

Is it possible to win like that? I cant see how that would work. Again, I am fairly new to chess.

Thanks Batman. I thought this was a real chess opening. You know me, I love to take in new information and use it to my advantage.

Alas, my friend, seeing this post, I realize that you truly require a vigorous education on chess. First of all, after 1.e4, the d3 and f3 squares are weakened. With 2.Ke2, these weak points are deftly bolstered. Second, it utilizes prophylaxis against developing either your queen or bishop prematurely. Thirdly, with 2.Ke2, your king is mobilized, and once the pieces rapidly come off the board, white will have the more active king in the endgame.

You know why the bongcloud is so bad? its because its useless. The whole point of Ke2 is to get your king active but all of these cowards go Ke1, wasting a move because in the endgame you bring your king out anyways, why not just camp your king on the 3rd rank?

Anybody who tarnishes the image of the Bongcloud Attack is not playing the Bongcloud Attack and thus, cannot be used as evidence for your argument.
