In the game between Knoll, Hermann (white) and Wendl, Philipp (black), played at the Austria 2nd BL-Mitte 2024-25 on April 6, 2025, the move Nc4 was made by White.
This move is characterized by gaining a tempo advantage. The player makes a bold choice, opting to develop their piece for active play rather than taking a safer path. The move also reveals a blocked attack, potentially leaving an opening for Black to counterattack. Furthermore, it misses the opportunity to escape an impending attack and fails to force a concession from Black. The player ignores a clear threat chance, instead choosing to sacrifice material unnecessarily in exchange for a temporary gain of space. This decision sets up a potentially equalized position by proposing a piece trade, which may not necessarily be the most advantageous move.
