Master players, playing simultaneous matches, have to spend more time on poor players because they can approach a table thinking "they probably did " and have a response ready. That doesn’t work with the unpredictable amateur.
I’m really liking this artist except for: Font style is a distraction because its so unique, and the excessive black drippy outlines and back grounds give it a claustrophobic feeling and the atmosphere of dread and gloom (the opposite of Nancy).
So the Nancy of Earth-Luna is somewhat adept at chess, while the Nancy of Earth-Cash can’t even remember the rules of the game! I can’t remember – has the Nancy of Earth-OJ (the “prime” Earth) played any chess?

That may be the best way to be unpredictable. Not understanding so not actually planning.

This is pretty much how I play chess, yep.

Presumably she’s at least moving the pieces right, or Sluggo doesn’t actually know the rules either.

Never underestimate the power of a chaotic actor.

Let’s keep this writer. This person knows the essential Nancy and Sluggo. Olivia Jaimes does not know who the characters in Nancy are.

The horsey makes an L, and the castle makes a line…

Caroline’s Nancy is a good read. :-)

It doesn’t help that they’re not playing on a regulation chess board…it only has 16 squares…

Sluggo cries out, “Hey, good looking!” and swipes Nancy’s queen while Nancy turns around to see who’s there.

At least this chess game isn’t like Cries and Whispers.
