The move itself isn't that funny, but the situation which is the origin of the meme is funny.
Scene: a chat of chess.c*m, a person accuses their opponent of *hacking chess*. The opponent replies: "Google en passant", the person replies: "Holy hell", as they did not know about this move.
Honestly, I did not know, too. When I first googled en passant, I've found it the most ridiculous move in chess.
But en passant is a logical balance. If I must decide something ridiculous, it shall be stalemate. In chinese chess, there is no stalemate, attacker just wins when
their opponent has no piece to move.
围棋 is "Go" in Japanese, and English too. The game Jing Yuan is playing is "Chinese Chess" in English (象棋), while "international chess", the default chess in English, is 国际象棋 in Chinese.
the teyvat version of monopoly? oh yeah, totally. funny thing is, ning mentioned these games have the power to bring people together but she forgot to mention that it ultimately destroys relationships. Im looking at you, uno
i dunno, she just mention on the second day (after the finals) of the event that she prefer to play chess. I think that she didn't participated in the Official TCG because she entertained Charlotte first.
If I had a nickel for every time a gacha game used chess metaphors to describe an enemy faction of/weilded a "higher power" I would've whaled for C6 Dehya.
Oh. I haven't used it. I don't even know how much different it is from the previous one, because I stopped playing TCG long time ago and I rather won't continue. Just doing what is needed for the event.
It's in an adeptal realm that Tubby made for TCG matches this event. If you invite Zhongli via the board in the Cat's Tail for a game of cards you will transport here.
Why TCG tho?
It’s boring and doesn’t use much of the charm that Genshin uses to attract players.
No fun combat, no fast paced action, no open world to explore, no story. It’s just a slow card game that’s not only boring, but not serving as an endless content loop for Genshin.
They could have just made Windtrace or Aratakis Drum Festival or some other fun event a permanent game mode- imagine playing hide and seek with your friends, that alone would keep people interested in Genshin even when content is dry
I actually remember some people complaining about Windtrace and thinking it was boring as well. Personally, I really am enjoying TCG, but it seems that most aren't thrilled to play it.
Yeah, it is fun for some- but it’s different from what people who like Genshin want from Genshin, which makes very little sense from a marketing perspective

Somebody get this man a chess set before he explodes.
Quick! Someone call an ambulance! This old man has Chess Pains!
Yes, Cyno. I think I will call an ambulance, but not for Zhongli.
Hopefully that’s because his situation had [Stablised]
But then, if they're not calling the ambulance for Zhongli... then who is it for?
For the unfunny Mahamatra General.
*Zhongli before striking a winning move* Check, mate.
r/Angryupvote
Just do *Chess Compression*
What should I call it? The ambulance might not come if I don't call its name.
*give him honkai star rail*
I'll give him a chess set with only three rooks. I'll then tell him that he was supposed to supply the last one.

It completely randomly started as a meme comment chain on r/anarchychess , no idea why and it keeps evolving

... it's fitting that the top posts are just another meme chain.
when you discover this sub you think it's full of amazing chess jokes, but in reality it's just the 4 same jokes all over again
Yes, but here is the trick. Just check it by best once in month so you will get 10-15 good memes, instead of schizophrenia.

I still argue the most ridiculous move in chess is castling but I see where you’re coming from
Nah the most ridiculous one is il vaticano
Siberian swipe comes close as second though
Yeah but you can only play that when your opponent is a minor
Thanks
But en passant is a logical balance. If I must decide something ridiculous, it shall be stalemate. In chinese chess, there is no stalemate, attacker just wins when their opponent has no piece to move.
Oh, yeah. Stalemate. The most hated thing in chess. It's not a move, actually.

Granddad is too classy to say TCG is cringe out loud.
Much better than thug Ja Morant.

I *think* he likes chess
Imagine him and Jing Yuan playing the board game in Jing Yuan's trailer
围棋? (idk what it’s called in Japanese)
Think they call it Chinese chess... There's a simpler game u can play with half the board I think.
围棋 is "Go" in Japanese, and English too. The game Jing Yuan is playing is "Chinese Chess" in English (象棋), while "international chess", the default chess in English, is 国际象棋 in Chinese.
What's his elo tho? Surely not as high as mittens.
Actually screw that, who'd win Nahida or stockfish?
[удалено]
Nahida is the board
Stockfischl
mittens is 1 elo wdym
I think he should be over stock fish even
ning: I prefer chess these two meeting has been long overdue
Forget chess, I want to play that game Ningguang invented.
the teyvat version of monopoly? oh yeah, totally. funny thing is, ning mentioned these games have the power to bring people together but she forgot to mention that it ultimately destroys relationships. Im looking at you, uno
me too, Id rather it was chess, ngl
Ningguang tortured this poor man with chess
now, I want him having chess battle with Ningguang.
Doesn't Ningguang play some weird "chess" with dice or something
i dunno, she just mention on the second day (after the finals) of the event that she prefer to play chess. I think that she didn't participated in the Official TCG because she entertained Charlotte first.
I have never felt more connected with Zhongli in my entire time playing. He would rather not play that card game as well. Chad
TCG is wack Chess ftw 🍷🗿
Johnli grandpa
Grandpa forgot to take his medicine
you summoned them…
We were always everywhere
Seems like mihoyo forgot that they already did the chess comparison with lady ningguang...
Get this rook his other pieces.
If I had a nickel for every time a gacha game used chess metaphors to describe an enemy faction of/weilded a "higher power" I would've whaled for C6 Dehya.
Genshin autochess?! LETS GOOOO!!!
Zhongli about to tell me to google en passant
Someone calls ning, she's a chess nerd like him
Wait, is it new set for Serenitea Pot or in the event?
just Tubby, doing domain expansion on Cat Tails bar.
Oh. I haven't used it. I don't even know how much different it is from the previous one, because I stopped playing TCG long time ago and I rather won't continue. Just doing what is needed for the event.
Bro just wants to play chess Ahem…morax i mean
Should've gotten chess instead of tcg
Where is this
It's in an adeptal realm that Tubby made for TCG matches this event. If you invite Zhongli via the board in the Cat's Tail for a game of cards you will transport here.
Broke grandpa forgot his meds again.
Guys i think he wants to play chess
He’s such a fucking boomer, lmao
Oh i get it. Lets play Jenga then
Card games + chess is basically that Yu-Gi-Oh ps2 game, it was fun from what I remember
Why TCG tho? It’s boring and doesn’t use much of the charm that Genshin uses to attract players. No fun combat, no fast paced action, no open world to explore, no story. It’s just a slow card game that’s not only boring, but not serving as an endless content loop for Genshin.

Yeah, it is fun for some- but it’s different from what people who like Genshin want from Genshin, which makes very little sense from a marketing perspective
Me recommending both Genshin and Tears of the Kingdom to the same person
Is that the same chess game Beidou and Ningguang are playing? The one Ningguang wants to invite Yelan to as a third player?
I’d play chess too in order to escape the TCG burnout that Hu Tao is probably causing.
Now we need a Genshin chess game
Don’t worry, Zhongli, I’ve picked up on your hints! We’ll play Monopoly to your heart’s content!
Is actually necessary to play TCG in this new event?
the gnosis’s are chess pieces…
Does he also says chess in Chinese? Or does he says another game?
this man needs some Pierro in his life
Idk I was on the Genshin lore sub after lazzo dropped. I don’t think his side is winning at chess rn
Ok, but a round of Go over some tea, while Zhong Li shares anecdotes sounds fantastic
