Pawns are only powerful in tandem, or if they’ve been queened.
Isolated pawns are very weak, and are often sacrificed to either improve the players position or protect more valuable pieces.
Pawns are often the focus of forks, pins, and skewers.

Do people that feel they are a pawn feel they have no other “pawns” backing them? That says more about them I think… -
When people reference pawns, they are referring to being perceived as expendable and being of little value. What those who do the sacrificing need to always remember is what you are saying. That pawns suddenly become very powerful when they unite and start working together, rather than looking for someone to kick down at.
