How to solo the chess event:
Move the peon infront of your king, cancel the piece. Run back and take the Queen, move through the peon standing infront of the queen and start nuking the enemy king. When he yells out that he cheats and casts a fire under your king cancel the queen and run back. Move the king up behind the peon you moved first. Now cancel the king and start attacking with the queen again if your queen isn't dead already. If it is then keep controlling your king and hopefully the enemy king is now out in the field, meet it and spam attack it. This does require some luck but usually works in 3 tries or so. Sometimes you can get real unlucky with his king being spamm healed then you just gotta try again. If you got the king low but yours is also low you can move back, cancel the piece and try to heal your king 2-3 times and hope that his king won't be healed.
