The Infinite Chess video is a thought experiment about ordinary Chess on an infinite board. It is not the game you created, and being a subject matter for mathematicians, which is all that Infinite Chess seems to be from this video, is not the same as anyone actually playing it. Because of the complex logistics and incredibly long time scale of the game, odds are that no one is actually playing it.

While Infinite Chess could be an interesting subject for a page, the subject of this page is a piece without any history of usage. For now, it is sufficient to describe this piece only in the game it appears in. If the piece gains in popularity, then it may merit its own page in the future.
