This one was probably made by reverse engineering this final position. Just keep asking the question "what moves lead to this from a seemingly normal position" Still gonna be difficult to do and take a lot of time but it's doable if you're good.
Wonderful solution. Sacrificing a rook and the queen. .. opponent has Two rooks, two bishops and two pawns.. still the mate with a single pawn ! Unimaginable position. Unbelievable mate. Hats off to you !
Fantastic puzzle!! I found the first move and some of the lines but I didn't reach the final position with the Black king boxed in by his own pieces. 👍👍👍
My idea was that the queen can't be taken or black will be punished with Rook F3 mate. I didn't analyze after white rook goes to F5 though cuz I wasn't sure if this was supposed to be a mate in 2 puzzle.
Actually starting with the rook move that was claimed to not work actually does work: Rf3+ Kg4 (only move) Kh6+ Kh4 (only move) Rh3# Probably the reason this was missed is that Kh6+ may appear to be bad because it pins white's own queen (except queen doesn't need to move any more)
It's mind-boggling how people can even invent such puzzles.

That was a fun ride, and a wonderful analysis from our host.
This puzzle is a classic example of a king with his more army surrounding him, actually suffocate the king
Wonderful solution.

Unbelievable mate.
Hats off to you !
I agree with you, it was worth to see the path for a win !
Love the ending on this one!
The King in the cage!
Awesome puzzle!
1. King to h5, Either RxQ or BxQ
2. R to f3, checkmate 😊😊😊
If black notices the trap and try to escape by K to f5, then
2. Q to g6 checkmate
Fantastic puzzle!! I found the first move and some of the lines but I didn't reach the final position with the Black king boxed in by his own pieces. 👍👍👍
didn't see that coming.
great stuff
After two years of slowly improving... you just put me back to kindergarten... :) Very cool puzzle, though!...
Fantastic
Highly enjoyable puzzle. Thank you.
this was really Beautiful, and I'm really proud of myself for seeing the kh5 and kh4 moves
Saw the starting move pretty quickly! 😊 Training pays off !
This is simply brilliant!
What a beautiful puzzle!
Beautiful puzzle. Unbelievable 😊
This is brilliant. After all that flailing around, black gets mated with a pawn. Oh the humiliation! 😂
Wonderful, thank You 👍🏼
Checkmate with a pawn when your opponent is up two rooks and two bishops? Quite unusual. Great puzzle.
08:34 -- "Aaand we finish it off... with a little *РОRN* move..." ... _(SUBTITLES)_
ahahahahha !! :D
.
The wall behind the Black in on the e rank was a pretty good clue
You got to the final move and I still didn't see it! No wonder I've never won a chess game.
Beautiful end!
If its not a mate in 2 my first thought is King H5
My idea was that the queen can't be taken or black will be punished with Rook F3 mate. I didn't analyze after white rook goes to F5 though cuz I wasn't sure if this was supposed to be a mate in 2 puzzle.
This is so beautiful and difficult problem that I had to admire and laugh!
Truly beautiful!
Fantastic chess puzzle!
Fantastic!
That was beautiful but I hope I never lose like that.
That was a great one!
wonderful
beautiful
beautiful!
outstanding
Excellent puzzle, thank you and God bless you
5:21 Chessmaster plays this... So
Хочу с Вами сыграть в шахматы
5:27
...Bf7+
Kh4 Be7+
Kh3 Be6+
Kh2 looks like funny.
Disgusting, just disgusting. Pawn checkmate with a 15 point deficit. You would never recover from that loss.
I agree, if it was a real game and it came to the pawn checkmate, the black player might change careers. Lovely puzzle!
Too bad I conceded the game a long time ago when I was down by so much material.
The cage in the end is fun, but wouldnt black rather put the bishop on e2 in like at 5:33 ?
Still Rxf3+ Bxf3 and g3#
nice.. i only got the initial first step right by moving the king but after that i am stumped.... 😅
👌
Actually starting with the rook move that was claimed to not work actually does work:
Rf3+ Kg4 (only move)
Kh6+ Kh4 (only move)
Rh3#
Probably the reason this was missed is that Kh6+ may appear to be bad because it pins white's own queen (except queen doesn't need to move any more)
After Kh6+ black can take white's queen with either the rook or bishop and will win shortly after.
Beautiful mate! But these puzzles are just too complex! No fun or no time to go through all these variations!
Oh mu Gosh
Nonsense
“Oh my God” is evil blasphemy against God.
I hate all the time wasrred by you on showing wrong moves you waste my time
