literally, a Knight, he is armored and always ready to save the day. A bishop, is only high in the church, and his form of protection is praying.

Knight is very important in the beginning of the game because it
can move over other pieces. Also it moves in L shape which no
other piece can do. Bishop becomes important towards the end
when there are few pieces in the board since it can move cover
entire diagonals. But I think the choice should be made based on the situation.

Hard to tell. First of all, I am NOT a great chess player, but I'm familiar with it. I've depended on the knight a lot to take out important pieces early in the game, but I've always depend on a Bishop to go in for the checkmate (along with the rooks and queen). I have to go with the bishop.

I would say the Knight. The Knight can move over other pieces, and the Bishop cannot. I'm not sure though.. it's a toss up really. It really depends on the skill of the player as well and their strategy.

typically bishops... knights don't do much anymore (the holy grail-sword in the stone thing is played out). knights are like cowboys - no real use but they make for good gay movies. Bishops kinda win by default here because their fondness of young boys puts them on the radar, otherwise, no one would notice them either. you haven't heard anything out of a bishop since Desmond Tutu.

It depends of the style of play. Most people think the knight is more powerful. For this reason I will use the knight as a sacrifice piece. I use the knight to break up a strong defense and my opponent so fears the knight that he will capture it thus moving more of his defense pieces out of position.

The bishop. It can threaten far more spaces at one time than the knight. I however am rather fond of the ponies.

I'll say the bishop, it can lay in wait on the other side of the board,If your opponet is not paying attention, they'll walk right into it,If I have to sacrifice one, I'd chose the knight

I say knight because it is the only piece that can move through others. I like the variety of moves too.

the knight can jump color and make unorthodox defense, and offense at the same time, clearly making it the more important foe.
