A discovered check happens when a piece moves out of the way to uncover a check given by another piece. The discovered check is a kind of discovered attack. It is usually more powerful than a regular discovered attack because it is a forcing move that requires the other player to react.

The discovered check can be a crushing tactic because it can catch your opponent off guard. In addition, it forces the other player to respond to the check, giving you enough time to do severe damage.
