Which chess player is not fascinated by the walk of a king? Who is not impressed when he sees the most important and at the same time vulnerable chess piece trying to stay safe?

Your king’s march across the chessboard can be as exciting as it is terrifying! Imagine your king’s march across the chessboard bringing you a glorious victory at the end. What could be more beautiful than that? But at the same time it can also lead to an embarrassing defeat. A theoretically weak piece but also so strong. Such a special piece which through its paths on the chessboard so easily changes the outcome. It is extremely impressive that despite its stiffness it can create so many problems. As long as we can handle him correctly, of course.
