OK, I looked it up on Wikipedia. The bishop and queen were the last to have their moves set changed to the modern form in the 15th or 16th century. But even since then there have been some tweaks, such as the 3 move and 50 move rules for draws, and the orientation of the board. So you could maybe argue no balancing since the 16th century, and only a few bug fixes after that.
Someone failing to recognize a niche joke from a small community is not a whoosh. And of course he doesn’t get the joke. Because it’s a niche joke from a small community.
You’re just begging AnarchyChess to correct you.
They’re going to tell me to google something. I can feel it.
You should only be Googling things en passant, and not hang around too long.
I’ll show myself out.

More of a hotfix than a balance update imo

Now I am confused about if you get the joke or not.

Yeah, chess was really hard when the board had to be vertical. Horizontal orientation was a huge improvement to the player experience.
