Piecafist-King Stall

The Piecafist-King Stall is an existing strategy that utilizes the piecafist and the king to stall and force the opponent into an unfavorable position.

Usage
In this strategy, the pieces run are generally:

- 5 Piecafists

- 2 Kings

- 3 Regicides

The piecafists are placed within the front two rows in order for them to be used in the early game. The kings are placed in the back row in order for them to be safely used to stall. The regicides are then placed out of the way in the middle or back row towards the wall for safety in early game so then they can be utilized in the late game.

Counters
The Piecafist-King Stall's greatest weapon is it's ability to stall the early game and lock down the field, preventing the opponent from making any advantegeous moves. However, they are weak to high mobility pieces that can outmaneuver them and they are exceptionally weak alone or in the late game.
