You explain it even better than Lasker! It’s an excellent piece coordination exercise. What I will never understand is how many explain the method with the three triangles, which gives far too much freedom for the other king to irritate you.
YES! You explain these endgames SO clearly. I hope you make more coverage of these theoretical endgames. Do you have a set streaming schedule? I subbed just for the support but I'd love to go on the streams that are like this if I knew what time you'd be on. I think in general your audience likes this content much more than the 3/0 blitz with rock music in the background. Don't try to be chessbrah! We like no nonsense Andras! Of course if you like playing blitz with music on go for it. Just a suggestion from a fan.
I've watched several other videos like this trying to learn this mate, but I've never been able to actually do it. But after watching this video, I was able to do it several time, easy! Thank you Andras!!!
Great explanation! There is a free course on chessable for this exact pattern, in case people want to train it. Without training the chance of pulling this of with a few seconds left is still minimal imo.
Man your knack for explanations is amazing. The hungaro-aussie accent and the humour is just a bonus :D Also loved all of your Chessable courses. Any chance you are going to do one on the King's Indian (since you vid was brilliant)
I don’t know whether this works in practice, but could there be an issue if your opponent runs to the bishop’s corner, (where you’d normally want it) but since your pieces aren’t in their ideal positions, the king then escapes to another corner or towards the centre?
Coach something that very rarely occurs in a game but is still extremely useful: Checkmate with two knights and a pawn where the pawn is on the "a" or "h" files respectively.
Because it is generally the wrong thing to do. Same applies for mating with Queen or rook. Forcing the king back means you take squares away near it. Not the one it’s sitting on.
In a real game the opponent will head for your backrank in order to confuse you as much as possible. Nothing has really changed but... it ain’t what you practiced at home.
This video is a 9/10, it would be 10/10 if you were in a hot tub

I've tried to learn this from other videos and never quite got it. Just did it first time after watching this. Absolutely brilliant video.
What an epic thumbnail. Thanks for this one coach. I really learned a lot from you. Chicos and chikas love your channel and the best part is 11:30

Ty Andras! I could never learn this, but this makes so much sense!

Finally. I've made it up to 2000 Lichess and I still have never come across anyone who can explain this. Thank you.
Oh wow never thought it is so easy to learn...thanks a lot coach!!! Keep being AWESOME!!!

I think there is a kid course coming by Gawain . I am currently engaged with a different project 😉🔥
You just made it look super easy! Thank you so much! :)
thank you , please do more endgame stuff
So nice thank you.

1st this is the best damn thumbnail your editor has made, 2nd i told you you'd post it😉
Did this guy just make the knight and bishop mate simpler than a staircase mate? awesome Andras awesome!!
Trying.....:)

I have studied it multiple times since I got it once in a real game and failed to deliver it, but then it never happened again😩
This is GOLD pure GOLD!!!
Thanks for the lesson! :)
This channel is underrated
Now make a video on how to mate with 2 knights...
Why don't you like to give checks ?
Because it is generally the wrong thing to do. Same applies for mating with Queen or rook. Forcing the king back means you take squares away near it. Not the one it’s sitting on.
My preferred horse mating video to watch
