DiscoCheck is losing quite a few games because of its lack of understanding of material imbalance. I need to find a way to fix that. Unfortunately it's one of the difficult piece of chess knowledge to implement in an engine :cry:
Theory and practice sometimes clash. And when that happens, theory loses. Every single time.
