If you’re looking for legitimate advice, you’re in the wrong community. Anarchychess is for chess memes.
That said, what my noob brain sees:
- it attacks white’s c pawn
- it activates black’s queen
- it prevents Qa4+, allowing black to castle
Edit: Qa4, not Qh4
On top of that it avoids Bg5, pinning the horsey, which could otherwise maybe be annoying. Also, I thing you meant Qa4+ instead of Qh4+, which is the anarchychess idea in this position for white.
This move only makes sense in the context of their next planned move. Clearly, they’re going to move d8-d7, going with the King on a Horsey strategy.
Ah yes, the Bongcloud Cowboy.
When the king gets to spend time with his horses, it keeps his suicidal thoughts at bay, keeping black in the game longer. Remember poker? No horses, and a suicide king. Not a coincidence.
