The Giant Wizard's Chess set was a chess set transfigured by Professor McGonagall to Giant size. It was used to guard the Philosopher's Stone in the 1991-1992 school year. Near the end of the first book, Harry Potter, Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger were attempting to pass so they could stop, who at the time they believed to be, Severus Snape. Ron took command of the pieces, himself, Harry and Hermione replacing missing pieces, to defeat the opposing team and be allowed to pass. In the end, Ron sacrificed himself to allow Harry to capture the opposing King. At the end of year feast, Albus Dumbledore gave Ron fifty House Points for winning the best played game of Chess that Hogwarts had ever seen. You could also see Percy Weasley shouting about his brother's accomplishments.
