Black to move and checkmate in 3.
If you push your pawn forward how do you get your bishop in front of the pawn?
DING DING DING!
THE LIL' FIGHTER IS ALWAYS HERE WITH US! IN SPIRIT!
If you are moving your bishop in front of your Rook/Queen then why can't the King go back to the first rank?
But if you are not checking the King, look what white can do to your king.
Reserve F1 for your Queen.
There is two ways white can get out of this situation and it involves your queen not able to get to F1
Used to playing as white eh? The board is flipped because it's whites perspective.
DING DING DING!
Queen D1 check.
Queen E1 blocks
Queen takes Queen
King only move G2
Queen F1 checkmate.
Queen D1 check.
Queen E1 blocking check
Queen takes Queen
King G2
Queen F3
Do you see the bishop protecting the Queen?
And what if White decides not to block with his Queen?
King G2 and he loses to Queen F1 next move.
The Queen block prolongs the game by 1 move.
No. Queen goes to C1. If Bishop goes to C1 King goes back to the first rank because the Queen is blocked.
If the Queen is on F1 it's blocking H3.
The Bishop protects her.
>prior to any of this 1200 stuff kek
Great way to insult the 1200's and ignore the factYOUR BISHOP IS IN FRONT OF YOUR ROOK NOW!
Because you can't solve the mate in 3 and you suggest your way works when you couldn't figure out you were moving your bishop in front of your rook?
Do you want easier puzzles?
You mean the Queen is protected by the bishop right?
Because you already played Queen D1
You just play Queen F1 and H3 is covered by the Queen.
I understand.
I was pointing out the question you had because of this variation (which is correct).
