    It's mind-boggling how people can even invent such puzzles.

      This one was probably made by reverse engineering this final position. Just keep asking the question "what moves lead to this from a seemingly normal position"
      Still gonna be difficult to do and take a lot of time but it's doable if you're good.

    This puzzle is a classic example of a king with his more army surrounding him, actually suffocate the king

    Wonderful solution.
    Sacrificing a rook and the queen. .. opponent has
    Two rooks, two bishops and two pawns.. still the mate with a single pawn ! Unimaginable position.
    Unbelievable mate.
    Hats off to you !

    1. King to h5, Either RxQ or BxQ
    2. R to f3, checkmate 😊😊😊
    If black notices the trap and try to escape by K to f5, then
    2. Q to g6 checkmate

    If its not a mate in 2 my first thought is King H5

    • @JSSTyger
      @JSSTyger Месяц назад

      My idea was that the queen can't be taken or black will be punished with Rook F3 mate. I didn't analyze after white rook goes to F5 though cuz I wasn't sure if this was supposed to be a mate in 2 puzzle.

    Checkmate with a pawn when your opponent is up two rooks and two bishops? Quite unusual. Great puzzle.

    Disgusting, just disgusting. Pawn checkmate with a 15 point deficit. You would never recover from that loss.

      I agree, if it was a real game and it came to the pawn checkmate, the black player might change careers. Lovely puzzle!

    The cage in the end is fun, but wouldnt black rather put the bishop on e2 in like at 5:33 ?

  • @gregslaughter73
    @gregslaughter73 Месяц назад

    Actually starting with the rook move that was claimed to not work actually does work:
    Rf3+ Kg4 (only move)
    Kh6+ Kh4 (only move)
    Rh3#
    Probably the reason this was missed is that Kh6+ may appear to be bad because it pins white's own queen (except queen doesn't need to move any more)

    • @benkelly2024
      @benkelly2024 Месяц назад

      After Kh6+ black can take white's queen with either the rook or bishop and will win shortly after.
