Cool Mate in 2 that I Missed :(

Cool Mate in 2 that I Missed :(

[@forthemworthy]

0:15 Rc4 is a beautiful waiting move that forces white to play either Ba4 or Bxc4, Ba4 loses to Rxa4# with an immediate mate (queen is pinned) and Bxc4 is met with Qxc4#

[@farouqbaiti4315]

Why explaining when Chessscape is the explainer?

[@lajos-berenyi]

He is explaining, because he most probable solved it and then wrote this comment without seeing the solution in the video.

[@PratikUdmale6]

We can do chekmate by the no. 4 rook taking ahead

[@user-fm3no5gm9t]

The right notation is Ra-c4, because both Rooks can go to c4

[@ElevatorFan1428]

1:51 Kf2+ is actually a good move because Kh2 is forced the Kf3+ Kh3 Qh1#

[@clow242]

YES! I saw this and I felt like knowone else saw it

[@Michelle-mz8yq]

Same!

[@alfaro30]

Yes, it is. Although its sadly mate in 3

[@mrblakeboy1420]

“you’re the next magnus if you did” i thought of it by thinking of the most counterintuitive move like you said

[@normalchannel2185]

2:33 on the 2nd puzzle, i thought that Qb1 is a good play, seeing how you can go to e4 to checkmate,

[@chessscape]

the black queen sacrifices hersel by taking the pawn on b7 and also controlling e4 ;)

[@liam5254]

@@chessscape after king h3 why is there no Qh1#?

[@chessscape]

@liam5254. we are looking for checkmates in 2 moves. Qh1 mates in 3 ;)

[@chessscape]

i said Daruuk in the video.. you didnt watch the whole video :))

[@jakeshotdog3525]

4:55 RG2 to RF2 is check and if knight takes queen takes knight for a checkmate with the bishop watching the queen.

[@Zorrky]

Second puzzle, isn't Rg2 works as well? (-oh, i missed out black Qa8 covers both h8 and a1 while we blocked off the diagonal for bxa8 queen/bishop. :(

[@acekingdom5050]

For the second puzzle, I was at first thinking Rook to f2, then King to e2 for the mate, idk if Black can delay that but then I saw Queen a8 was better

[@thewrittenlegalist8110]

For the last puzzle, Rg1; King must move to e2 since he’s in double check. Then Qg4 is checkmate. Mate in 2

[@Blazedolf]

In last position there is another way to checkmate: Kxd1 blackmoves Qf2

[@123crackera]

1:07 wait... What friend? What Is a friend, even?

[@SpencerSmith-ee7pg]

Even though it’s not a mate in 2, it’s can also work in the second puzzle. The order goes: Rxd7 If they are smart and they prevent checkmate with Qh8, I play b8 = Q, creating a zugzwang. If queen takes, Rh7# If not, Qb7#. You can let me know if there is a way black can counter this move.

[@123crackera]

2:32 wait.. what about leaving the queen on the same file, like... What about Qe8? You can't checkmate... Right?

[@drincmusic2769]

Ngl you should line up the board with the side to move. Otherwise it looks like it's white to move and white's mate in 2 is qxc6+, kb8, qb7#. For the first puzzle i mean.

[@user-up7wg1ss6d]

You are 2nd best chess channel after GothamChess

[@armaan6the018]

Ikr!!!

[@rejun7683]

For the last one, just Rh2# is checkmate

[@davidamen3477]

I have a question in the last puzzle Why we didn't play rock g1 check then queen e1 cheakmate?

[@ludyna_rozymna]

1:24 Discovery checkmate is the best

[@ChessChampions]

I am very much disappointed. I was trying to figure out MATE IN 2 from white side in the first puzzle for so longfrom the thumbnail before clicking on the video😂😂😂

[@Mikhail-tal-the-GOAT]

i spotted the last one, it me 10 min felt so satisfying

[@AdamKafei]

Looking at 4:16, that knight on d1 is looking kinda vulnerable, like king takes and I've got at least two mates after. If Rook takes on e2 I have Queen F2 with mate. If Queen check on e2 then Rook takes on e2 with discovered mate unless I wanna drag the game out an extra move, can play Kc2+ forcing Qd/e1 and either way rook takes with checkmate.

[@user-si6cw8xp8g]

Hi chesscape There is an another alternative for the last puzzle King takes night If Qe2 check then rook takes queen is mate If bishop takes on g2 then Qe1 is mate If bishop F3check then again rook to e2 wins the game If i am missing something please suggest me

[@rolandasgrigaitis708]

You need to be rated 1800 or above in order to have the right to comment on these videos, newbie. Bishop F3 check, rook E2, black responds with Bishop to G2 - no checkmate.

[@chessscape]

these are not checkmates in 2 moves ;) after Re2, there is Bg2 :)

[@B16Dominoes]

​@@rolandasgrigaitis708oh wow some random commenter telling people that they can't comment. Hmmmmm. You probably added the rule of "1800 plus" only because you're 1800 and wanted to be included. Stop shutting people down for sharing their ideas cmon man

[@rolandasgrigaitis708]

@@B16Dominoes I'm not good at chess, but it's annoying seeing someone stating their opinion where they have no idea what they're talking about. To illustrate what it looks like, it's literally just like explaining engineering of any kind and a 5 year old kid trying to make a smart comment about it.

[@kingprofessional3141]

beautiful video but can you please make a video about how to checkmate with 2 bishops

[@chessscape]

i have a lot of videos to do before doing it but i have it in my list ;)

[@kingprofessional3141]

thanks for considering

[@ahmedwalaash]

In the last puzzle there is a another answer rf2 is a chek with rock and bishop there id only two moves 1 if kq1 the Qe1 is a cheek mate and if ke1 the nc2 is chek mate

[@EnzoChaupis]

4:08 Also you can capture knight d1 with knight b2 or with the king

[@chessscape]

both moves cant checkmate in 2 ;)

[@ximzedxxl]

​@@chessscapehey, sorry, what will black do after king d1? If they give a check either with the queen or bishop, rook e2 is checkmate. Any other move leads to a checkmate with queen to f2 or e1

[@eskeyf5512]

​@@ximzedxxl about knight move there is a counter Qf6 if king moves, then Bf3 ands it's a check what leads to Re2 Bq2, both sadly aren't mate in 2

[@El_sepuIturero]

Hello, in the second puzzle what stops kf2+ kf3+ qh1#?

[@red7821]

It's a puzzle with mate in two, that would be 3 moves. But nothing stops it, tho

[@ericdennisdeguzman5155]

Hard puzzle but still found the solution

[@pannenkoeksus]

3:47 i paused for like 3-5 seconds and found it

[@chessscape]

beautiful!

[@orangeoranges-mw2sb]

2:00 isnt qh1 just mate? ok nvm its a 2 move checkmate

[@DUCK-xx2ec]

Qe3 is nice because the queen can’t can’t cuz for rook pin and the only move is the bishop which can’t defend anything then checkmate

[@somerandomguy4216]

True

[@diegozamora2366]

What about in the last puzzle? Because... White move: Rg7+ Black move: Ke2 White move: Qg4++

[@electricalmaster5807]

2:00 you can also move queen to d1 and then f3 and no matter what they wont be able to get to the queen in time

[@hinyuchin4724]

black can play Qxb7 to delay mate.

[@georgeren7168]

Qxb7 covers the f3 square

[@aravgawande3278]

Bro I literally spotted Qa6 after thinking for 7minutes

[@villss894]

the fact its mate in two if black plays first and mate in two when white plays first in the first puzzle

[@amazingfireboy1848]

3:45 The only reason I didn't think of that was because I'm afraid the Pawn will take the Knight, then the other Knight takes the Pawn, then the King takes the Knight, so that's not Checkmate in 2. You failed to clarify which side was which, because this only works if White is on bottom.

[@lczq6737]

But the coordinates on the board already tell you which direction the pieces are travelling though.

[@joycongrip]

Can you check out the Steinitz gambit? I think that you'd love it

[@chessscape]

sure!

[@joycongrip]

@@chessscape Thank you, it is my favorite opening, Steinitz himself has used it against Paulsen in a very beautiful game

[@jsmariani4180]

In the first puzzle, what about Qe3? White queen can take Rc6 but then Qa7. Mate

[@panterka3965]

2:15 I have question. If i play rook g2 this is winning to?

[@sthembilenxumalo6617]

In the final puzzle there was another mate in two

[@user-mb1kc2kb2g]

In last position he can take the rook with king

[@kurtxandersuboc2509]

2nd puzzle Rh8+ Kh2 Kf2 and then Qg1.

[@auntum4562]

2:00 I thought it was Rh2+ then after king takes Qh8#

[@sustainablelife3603]

At 2:00 kf2 is still winning after the black king is forced to go to h3 the queen will just slide to qh1. Qa8 is just faster right? Please tell me I'm not crazy 😢

[@remaininganonymous]

2:11 how abt Rf2?

[@hinyuchin4724]

2/4 I found the first 2 puzzle solution easily. But the next 2 I only found m3.😅

You could of moved the queen at e6 at the start, and wish that he woild of kolled the rook in a4😂

just but a mate in 3.. we want the fatsest checkmate in 2 ;)

[@noonecare12321]

on the first one what about Rb4 if pawn takes qa2#

[@user-ng9rp9gf6b]

I found another way to checkmate in two moves

[@sustainablelife3603]

But kf2 is still winning though right? After king h3 the white queen will go to qh1 and it's checkmate please tell me I'm not crazy

[@lightknight5857]

How about R +A5 king+ queen check then take the queen

[@Zspy]

3:45 is false if you check them with queen to h4 it's mate in 1 after that move because if king e5 then you bring queen back to e7 however if he plays king f3 then you just movwe queen g3

[@Mr_g6m3r]

For the 2nd example its checkmste anyway

[@patricklaznikzalaznik1666]

What about rb4? Edit:nevermind the queen just takes the rook on c6

[@anhquoctranenglish_official]

where is the "CHÉCMATE!!" =)))

[@elihu3901]

Nah bro the last puzzle the rook does work you can go rook f2+ Double check with bishop and the king only has 2 squares to go to e1 and g1. If king goes to e1 then then Rook e2 is mate, Double check with the queen and king cant run to f1 Because of the bishop bishop. If king goes to g1 instead then oh i see it now nvm it will be mate in 3 if the king goes to g1. LOL thought it would work 💀💀💀

[@user-rz8rg1kw4b]

5:25 Rh2 is mate in 1?

[@redpacific359]

Cant get the 2nd The last one took me 5 mins so hard i thought taking the knight but there bishop in b7 and finally🎉🎉

[@thomasa.s.6314]

But, in the second probleme, what about Qh1? I mean, yeah Qa8 was a better checkmate, but isn't this lead to checkmate too?
