17:26 why is xe5 not a good move? it would completely eliminate the staircase, right?
I found out about the staircase mate from that one hikaru clip lol
I found out about the staircase mate from that one hikaru clip lol
I found every single move in puzzle 2!
Why in puzzle 2 you don't Just move the knight in front of the pawn to block It from promoting? Could you add a video explaining that?
3:34 knight to b4 I'm like 700 rated and I saw tat immediately ๐
I loved the second puzzle, under-promoting is so amazing
The first time i see staircase is from hikaru, he even say the same thing like you!
17:01 hikaru also said that "check check check" thingy.
I really love all 3 puzzle btw
black has mate in 2 bishop g4, queen h5 mate
I like how there is a random knight in first puzzle for our convenience
5:58 Q can take on f7 and after a8+ Q can go to G8
Couldnโt the knight in puzzle 2 just go to e3 and prevent the pawn from becoming queen from the start?
Edit: he just talked about the bishop ๐ญ
The 2nd puzzle is actually impressive, Like most of the people would just pick the queen.
Just out of curiosity why can't you skip knight to G6 and just play pawn to G6?
For the second puzzle. Doesnโt Bd7 still work since you can then check Nc6 and then Nb6 to stop c8=Q. Then you just promote the D pawn stopping all the Bishop checks. And you win
8:30 The 2nd puzzle was pointless cuz he could get a bishop checkmate ez
I donโt understand #2
The second puzzle is the most exciting puzzle I ever saw
On the first puzzle how does he defend G6?
These are actually very easy to solve since all White's moves are forced.
I SOLVED ALL THESE PUZZLEโS MOVES EVEN THOUGH IM ONLY AROUND 1300 ELO!!!
Well, these puzzles are probably not that hard, if a 1300 elo can solve all of the moves in it then higher elo can solve it faster and easier, but still, WOOO!!! The 2nd puzzle was very confusing and mind boggling, since I thought for a good 5 minutes on how to avoid stalemate 3 times until I found out I have to underpromote 3 times to win. For the third puzzle, it was relatively easy, as rook needs to be sacrificed to blockade the queen from obstructing the staircase, and you canโt go in front of the black king with queen because if you do, bishop will take it.
The 1st puzzle I struggled on for a bit.
Hey you miss something in 2 number puzzle bishop to d2 is even better move because remember black play the move bishop to e4 now, it doesn't work because remember the bishop was controlling c1 square now there is no bishop because in the begging we play the move bishop to d2 and then black king just take it. This is what you miss. Because if was b2 bishop was sitting and doing worst job because it was controlling the c1 square. That what you miss.
Staircase is mindblowing never seen a dheckmae like that
In puzzle #3 why can't pawn just take queen?
Soo u ruined all the puzzles within the first fucking minute. I cannot stand goddamn youtubers that always play the so called "highlight" of the video at the very start but then you have the audacity to give out hints that basically give the puzzles away.
Its "youtube techniques" like this that always just pisses me off to always dislike and write an angry comment. As you can tell, your shit dont work prick.
nice bro
saw the rook sacrifice and staircase after first cheack. was laughing for 5 mins after that
nice man
I was so excited after being able to solve puzzle 3 it was good and all of the 3 positions are mind blowing
But what's with the bishop? I could see better moves for black
Puzzle 1: what about pawn to g6 instead of the knight?
In puzzle 2, knight to G3 is directly checkmate, isn't it? ๐ค
Kg3
Qe8
4:35 what if bishop b8
why not move the knight to E3
move the knight from e5 to e3
At time stamp 17:30 puzzle 3, BLACK CAN TAKE THE QUEEN WITH THEIR PAWN
Hey, I just wanted to let you know you're my favorite chess channel. You've the (he he) vibe that fits, it's easy to follow your way of thinking and everything is nicely explained, your puzzles are always interesting and their difficulty is just right. So yeah, cheers!
Wow 2nd amazing
Bro I swear every single time you say to pause and find a move, if I canโt find it I always say โwatch it be this moveโ and then it happens to be that move and itโs happened 3 times in a row now
For the second puzzle is bishop to e3 a valid good move?
I solved 1st and 3rd myself but 2nd was a lot more complicated I didn't even consider that stalemate manouver plus for the 3rd one you said that it's a staircase so you helped us a lot
1st puzzle black queen will play a3 then Go to the top
5:00 for the first puzzle why not go Knight to C7 to protect when the a7 pawn promoting, queen trade then your up a queen?
5:11 why can't black check mate with
Qd6+
G6 Qd2+
F4 QXf4#?
Yeah I totally can solve those puzzles. (Check video title)
In case you were wondering about 4:50 why Nc6 Qxc6 g6 Qf3 g7# doesn't work โ this is because after g6 there is Qc1#. Brilliant geometry!
Second puzzle first move
I thought Ke3 was the go-to move
Only check
on the third one instead of moving left on 10 i moved down because it captures all squares and if king attaks white king protects it
Puzzle 2 you donโt have to get the knight because the bishop covers all the squares that the other bishop checks on
