Ah, just what I needed...
More chess lore. This will be a wonderful addition to my collection.
I would have done the deadly Nakhmanson Gambit
I’ve only ever watched the movie, and some of the comics. This really makes me want to catch up on what I’m missing out on. Oddly enough, this fic was a very good read today!

I only play three gambits regularly, Orthoschnapp, Benko, and Scotch.
Also, I sorta expected the game to end in stalemate.
Love this
Ooo. This feels like an interlude you'd see in the show.
As long as opaline doesn’t have a mega chessitron I think Sunny and friends will be fine.

Ah okay. I also got the Elephant Gambit and the deadly Stafford Gambit as well.

I recall the refutation of Stafford, but instead of bothering with it, I go 3. Nc3, ideally going for Spanish Four Knights.

Okay
No. Opaline is too obviously stupid for chess metaphor stories. The only good thing is that she actually adresses the story's premise of Twilight, of all people, also treating actual pony lives like a game. Why? Because of some mysterious higher wisdom? Then what it is? That the best way to solve all problems is to just believe in friendship?
