Rewards
The game calculates how many Coins Coins, Gems Gem and you receive based on how many waves you survived and if you won a match. During periods of 100% more (Friday – Sunday), any earned is multiplied by 2x through the XP Boost modifier. The VIP gamepass also multiplies any earned by 1.25x through the VIP Boost modifier. These two boosts are additive. Regular boosts are multiplicative with other modifiers present on this map. Any rewards that end in a decimal point is rounded down, no matter the first figure of the leading decimal.
Strategy
This path takes fairly long detours around the chess pieces. This means that towers with long range, like the Turret, are recommended. If you can find good spots to place them, the Pursuit and Ace Pilot can be quite useful on this map. Because of the long detours, units, like the Railgun Tank, can shoot at enemies far ahead of it without the risk of it being destroyed. You can place cliff towers on the chess pieces and cards. Be aware of the little space to place cliff towers, especially in the middle of the map. Some chess pieces do not allow for cliff towers to be placed on them. To allow cliff towers to reach the entire map, the DJ Booth is recommended.

Patch history
Before being remade in the MEGA Update, Chess Board was one of the longest in the game. After being remade in the MEGA Update, Chess Board was one of the shortest in the game, only being beaten by maps such as Badlands. After being remade in the MEGA Update, Chess Board was the first map where some of the corners were not perpendicular to each other. Prior to the Overhaul Update, the only other map to have this feature was Polluted Wasteland. While Chess Board was remade in the MEGA Update, it was mostly remade to reduce the size of the map. This was unlike some other maps which received a completely makeover. The size of the first two versions of the chess board on this map was 10x10 squares. However, a chess board size in real life should be 8x8 squares. The chess board size currently on this map is 8x8 squares, identical to real life. Every chess piece on the map represents a real life chess piece. The legacy Fallen King is the king. The Fallen Swordmaster is the queen. The Hidden Bosses are the bishops. The legacy Templar is the rook. The legacy Fallen Heroes are the knights. The Normals are the pawns. In this position white is winning the game
