Melnikov's Gambit

It's what happens when a person comes into conflict when purchasing a new (or pre-existing) LEGO set.
Thanks a lot, LEGO Group. I'm suffering Melnikov's Gambit trying to get ahold of the new modular set!

A simple yet effective chess trap that players of any rating will be guaranteed to fall for. With the founder GM Vikram Rahul Abishek Pranav Rajesh, here are steps to ensure you are in a winning position:

We will start with a standard opening, king's pawn to e4. Black responds with the Scandivanian Defense, queen's pawn to d5. This is black's first mistake, and the game is already over for him. We will play knight to f3. Black responds by capturing our pawn, attacking our knight. Now we will move our knight to g5, saving the piece and attacking black's pawn. To defend the hanging pawn, black plays knight to f6, bringing the piece into a more active square. We will move our pawn to d3. Black is already ahead in material, and so they will accept the sacrifice. Now we can develop our bishop by capturing the pawn on d3. Black plays pawn to h6, attacking the knight. What we will do next is move the knight to f7, forking the rook and queen. Black has no options except to capture the knight and leave it in an exposed position. We can move the bishop to g6 to check black. Black cannot retreat his king because the bishop is now attacking this entire corridor. Black once again has no other choice but to capture with their king. Black's queen is now exposed after we sacrificed a knight and bishop. The next move is obvious. We can launch an RT-2PM2 «Topol-M» cold-launched three-stage solid-propellant silo-based intercontinental ballistic missile to attack black's remaining pieces.

Anthem Gambit

The act of your own videogame failing due to executive greed, sabotaging it further by removing content or patching bugs that actually improve the player experience until everyone stops playing and then blaming it on a lack of interest.
Person A: "Did you hear what happened to Battlefield 2042? It's an absolute mess."
Person B: "Just another case of the Anthem Gambit."
