The 2018 World Chess Championships are set to take place in London, and the logo for the event is ... yeah.

I’m not going to throw shade on the players depicted here. Chase your bliss and live your life, but scissoring seems like a distinctly uncomfortable way to play chess. Not to mention that the players need to support the board with one hand, while playing like they’re feeding wedding cake to each other. Here’s why World Chess went with this design, according to its website:

“Key visual for the 2018 World Chess Championship is controversial and trendy, just like the host city.”

I mean, it’s true. I always wondered why London’s motto was: “Where you can play chess and f*** at the same time.” It’s a weird choice, but hey — we’re talking about the 2018 World Chess Championship, aren’t we?

To be fair, its other logo is a similar intertwined design, but this one is just arms and it looks incredible:

In any event, this is the first World Chess Championships we can absolutely say is “DTF,” which means “Down to Fianchetto.” What? That’s moving the pawn forward so the bishop can be at b2, g2, b7 or g7.

Get with the times.
