Why is this not checkmate?

The horsey moves in an L shape
- But than I would take my own knight, this is unacceptable.
  
  The top right horsey moves to block the diagonal guy, while also setting up to ice the king.

Because I already sunk your battleship, the game ended last turn.
Also, you're in a coma. You have to wake up. Please, wake up.

You can't take other pieces when moving from a green square. On this board only the black and yellow squares are live - the green squares are out of play. Useful to rest and feed the horses if you can get to them.

The amount of people missing the joke here is amazing and I don’t even browse this sub

google en passant
- en passant got me from 1000 rating - 2800. buy my book.
  
  New response just dropped

Knight can move to block bishop
- What? Pieces can't move over other pieces... This isn't fucking checkers.
  
  Knight can. That's his main thing.
  Edit: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knight_(chess)
  
  Try it sometime. The game will let you because it’s a valid move
- Or queen can just take it. Look at the left side. Or bottom.
  What the hell is going on in here?
  
  No, the queens are all wallflowers, why do you think they aren't dancing?? I'll tell you, they're too shy.

King hasn't used teleport yet

It's obvious. UFO takes the bishop.

Queen takes bishop or knight/queen to cover.
