No en passant mate? My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined.
You want to say ''Discovered En Passant Pawn Checkmate''?
Well this day has completely turned to shit.
@@farouqbaiti4315bro why you gotta ruin the naamee
Naamee?
I once won an online blitz game with a Discovered En Passant Pawn Checkmate, and the feeling was awesome.
It would be nice if they were ranked not solely based on their rarity but also on how cool they are, the intuitiveness, and how easy or hard it is to spot.
I did, but rarity is (imo) the most important part when deciding what to study, so that was the biggest element when I ranked them
yeah i was thinking the same thing. also i dont think there's a need to throw in a puzzle with a queen sac to make ppl understand that it has potential to be a puzzle.
@@Volclus The opposite order with the most common ones first is more pedagogically sound imo.
For a weaker player seeing an esoteric mate first doesn't help me learn anything from it, I instead wind up going back to the start of the video after having seen the end of it..
@@Volclushook Mate is preaty common I got a knight mate when opponent had to move hes knight from the king because of zutswang and get mated by my knight it was such a good mate
@@Volclus Something being rare, like a smothered checkmate, is what makes it special. If it was more common it would lose it's value.
15:25 My favorite part about the mate here is that all three minor pieces control exactly two squares to trap the king. What a beautiful mate
Smothered mate is the greatest checkmate pattern there is.
En passant Checkmate? Ludwig did this against Magnus Carlson and Magnus allowed this checkmate. This Ludwig is not the Ludwig but Alexandra Botez’s coach.
@@stevejohn7459What tf are you trying to say? I cant understand anything you are saying.
@@stevejohn7459Hammer, his name is Ludwig Hammer.
I think easy mates should also be b tier max, like doing a ladder mate doesnt really make you proud but finding a queen sacrifice for an anastacia's mate has a feeling to it
Great video! Thanks for showing the concept in simplicity, then providing the tactical real life examples.
I love your videos! Been lurking and watching this channel for a while, keep up the good work!
Glad you're back Volclus.
I like the way we set up the checkmate when we sacrifice pieces.
This video was Fun and Brilliant.
Thanks fro making these kind of videos.
Great video for quick reference. Already got a couple people in mind to send this to; excellent stuff. 👍
8:15 I feel like it is named Vukovic Mate because he was first to really mention mating types in his Art of Attack
These videos are so interesting to watch. Keep it up!
Lawnmower mate is like The beginner of mate patterns.
MERRY CHRISTMAS! Can you make a beginner/ intermediate Ruy Lopez video? Maybe system-based, or a few different systems (eg. Anti-Berlin against Berlin, maybe the same style setup against all closed Ruy Lopez variations) just to make the Ruy Lopez a bit simpler and easier to play. Thanks, and again, Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas! Can you make a video on the taimonov sicillian? Love the content keep it up 🔥
LADDER MATE.....
haha yeah that's what I was thinking too. Never heard of it as the lawnmower haha
I once had an Anastasia's mate in the tournament game, where i sacrificed the queen for that and it felt pretty cool
Something neat about the Railroad Mate: in infinite chess, this is at the core of a position which is Mate-In-Omega. Placing a rook in the way of the king's escape route forces the player about to be checkmated to move the rook as far out as possible, and there are also rooks two spaces away from this rook in either horizontal direction to prevent moving the rook out of the way. Thing is, there's no limit to how far the rook can move.
Got epaulette mate yesterday, was good 👍
1:42 There are about a million things hard in this endgame: rounding up the king if it is not already in the corner, knowing what is won or drawn, knowing how much you can let black push the pawn... if Nd8 is what is hard to find for you there, you are probably not a chess player. Mate in 2 on such a reduced board should take you about 5 seconds, even as a mediocre amateur.
Bro I love you for this THANK YOU
Very, useful, thanks so much for this entertainment and useful video, again
I'm 1300 and even at that rating some people don't know the rook and king checkmate a lot of people blunder it in the late middle game, early endgame. They are busy capturing pawns and don't notice that the kings have opposition and your rook is just in the position for a checkmate. This saved me a few lost games
That random dude who doesn’t know how to do the king queen pattern and is like: 👁️👄👁️ why dont you tell
I had the 2 knights Vs a pawn yesterday
I did #35 But the king had two horseys at the both sides
One time I got into a completely losing position with nothing but a queen and a bishop. Meanwhile, my opponent had a queen, two rooks, and three extra pawns. I did see a light at the end of the tunnel, though: The opposing king was castled behind three pawns in the back rank. Seeing this, I knew what I had to do. I marched my king, queen, and bishop to the eighth rank, where the black king was heavily guarded by two rooks. Seeing what I needed to do, I attacked one of the rooks with my queen on a diagonal, then sacrificed... THE BISHOP (!!) the rook took my bishop, and my queen captured the other rook. My opponent sat there for at least a minute, trying to figure out what he could do, but eventually, he broke. My opponent, defeated, blocked with his last rook and got checkmated
And this was my attempt to turn a low elo game into a top chess video
This vid had smothered mate, but i feel like u should have added the queen sack into knight mate too and separately.
(the one in which u have a pattern following double checks then queen sack rook takes and knight smother mates)
I'm 700 rated and I once had an #35 epaulette mate looking exactly like this as well, except there was an extra knight at C6
I kinda hoped that you explain the two bishops mate and the bishop and knight mate. I'm 1800 rated on lichess and still can't figure out how to do it, but yeah it's extremely rare
bnk vs k is relatively easy though. there's a triangle-method and a w-method.
the triangle method tries to keep the king into an ever shrinking triangle; useful for the first and last part.
the w-method is kinda like a complete sequence of moves. it starts, once the enemy king is in the wrong corner. first off the bishop looses one tempo, then the knight hopps their w while the king moves up to protect it. it basically ends, when the enemy king was drivin into right quarter of the board and then the triangle method should win the rest
@@cobalius I appreciate your reply but I kinda need a visual demonstration to fully comprehend what you had just typed. Thank you tho, I will look it up.
Can you make guides to play simple system against openings like french defence . Most ppl only teach us how to play openings but dont teach how to counter and play against them
*Gets checkmate*
"We're completely winning!"
In all seriousness, thanks for the checkmate video! Some of the rarer ones were cool to see
I'm 1400 I played a game against 1300 and I found out that they didn't know how to checkmate with king and rook. Granted, they were in a time trouble, but the point is they were just shuffling pieces
I've been beaten via the Blind Swine Mate more than a few times.
Also when i watched you video the queen's gambit then i just won. and have switched form beginner to intermediate.
railroad mate is actually useless. its very easy to mate with only queen or only rook, so you dont need both of them, unless black has other pieces. also no way youre going to lose if you dont know ladder mate (or lawnmower, idk who calls it like that, aside from you), as i said that 1 rook is enough to mate.
Great video. But, You're missing the pawn storm checkmate, en passant checkmate, discovered checkmate (like Killer King).
Another chess mate name in meme chess terminology:
no#2 ice skitter(named by GM xqc)
no#5 throbbing mate(Moist mate against GM xqc)
no#32 lobster pinter(named by GM xqc)
Never new there was so many. I checkmated by castling in one game. that's possibly rare.
Something like 4 out of 5 of the times I've missed mates in my games have been Arabian mates
knight and bishop checkmate at #33 is a crime
Nice video
the rook n king mate is quite rare as well I've had it like 5 times at most (out of 2k games) 😂
If you know the rook and king mate but forget the queen and king mate, you can actually use your queen as a rook.
So technically if you were to learn only 1 and not the other, the rook one is more universal in end games.
But the queen one doesn’t feel intuitive mirroring the enemy king until you see them slowly being backed up into a corner, then it feels super intuitive as their possible moves decrease.
New Mating Pattern ... Q on d8 P on d4 & d5 opposing K on d6
Justice for Anastasia's Mate! I see the chance to sac for this mate fairly often
I managed to get checkmated in the 35th pattern, when i was a 100 rated player
the goat posted 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Thanks
Can you please make a opening video on white ruy lopez or scotch 1.e4
i had 2 bishop/pony vs king endgame within roughly 5000 rapid games though. no double pony situations
edit: 1400-1600 rating range
We learn the king and queen mate after stalemating in so many winning games 😂
Theres 1,327 openings but only 37 mating patterns (w en passant)
You are one of my best chess tutors.
I HAD GAMES WITH KNIGHT & ROOK MATE 2 WAYS VUKOVIC AND ...
Y el mate de la coz??? With the Knight and king trap
No pawn mate,my life is ruined
#20 pilsbury mate. No need for rook sacrifice just move it back to safe square. Discover check and nowhere to run mate.
Bishop can be captured with mate here
You really sound like the guy from IGN.
Where is castle mate or en-passant? I did last in a game with Martin-bot
"Fools mate"
How common is the dutch?
You basically just took all Lichess' learn section content for examples ?
Smothered mate deserves a better rating :(
Quietly reminding them that they should blunder a rook and resign in the next 5 moves if they want to see their family again has gotta be up there considering it works pretty well even at GM level.
You can't get to.... 900?? Without the queen mate? I'm pretty sure you can't get past 500 without it
Bruh there is more than thirty six mates
You literally don't need to know the king and queen mate. You can just use the rook and king mate instead. Is it really that important?
Volclus aided me in my holy crusade against the false prophet! I was so heartbroken when I later learned he was quartered by the holy orders beasts in 1304. R.I.P.
day 1 of asking for a ruy lopez masterclass video
ladder mate is a better name than lawnmower lol
Shout out to anyone else who is here because they keep losing winning positions; i feel your pain.
Won't come up too often?
Hm. What do you expect?
Quite disappointed when I realised you were rating almost solely on rarity.
Where is ladder mate
L list
Stop complaining
