This move resulted in a win of material for White. Nxd5 wins material for White and leads to an equal trade of pieces. The move leaves the knight without any defenders. By playing Nxd5, Black misses the opportunity to threaten their opponent's position more effectively. This move ignores the stronger threat chance presented by another option for Black. By choosing Nxd5, the player overlooks the possibility of revealing an attack on a piece and instead develops their knight's influence. The move does not take into account a better option for Black involving their knight. This choice misses the opportunity to escape from White's potential attacks. It also fails to consider defending an unprotected piece or protecting an underdefended piece. Furthermore, this move prevents Black from forcing their opponent's next move. Nxd5 creates a fork that attacks multiple pieces but does not capitalize on this advantage. In summary, Nxd5 is a straightforward development of the knight and sets it up for active play.
