      You know. I’ve played chess for like 30 years and I can’t recall a single time someone has used en passant against me.

        I feel like it’s a rule made up by someone who didn’t agree with the double step rule

        “Oh, your pawn can do a double step? Well, my pawn can capture yours anyways!”

              En passant has always been the most obscure chess rule, in online chess it’s often reported as cheating. Which resulted in a lot of people saying “google en passant”, on an unkown lemmy clone someone realising it’s an actual chess move replied, holy hell, and a meme was born.
