    This achievement and the rare king checkmate achievement (discover checkmate with the king) are both achievable with the famous historical game "the perfect king hunt" by Edward Lasker, but not at the same time obviously…

      ​@@ヰル Sorry bro but you're just wrong. That's just going off notation. FIDE literally classifies castling as a king move. "Under the FIDE rules and enforced in most tournaments, castling is considered a king move, so the king must be touched first; if the rook is touched first, a rook move must be played instead." en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Castling#:~:text=Under%20the%20FIDE%20rules%20and,move%20must%20be%20played%20instead.

  • @brandonunderwood7668
    @brandonunderwood7668 11 месяцев назад +7

    You’re playing the wrong opening to get the achievement fast. I got it playing the nimzo where the queen side knight comes out then you push queen pawn 2 spaces, get the bishop out then king side knight and king pawn 1 space to get the other bishop out. This allows you to be able to castle to either side. Also there’s some tricky lines in the nimzo which forces the opponent to castle queen side which puts you and them in the position to be able to castle into mate.
