      I'm at Level 3 rn and I got a question: When the rook takes the queen, you played knight to e7, king moves and rook takes rook checkmate, but wouldn't rook takes f8 right away be a faster checkmate?

  • @catsarecool_was_taken
    @catsarecool_was_taken 11 місяців тому +52

    On level 3 I think you can just take the rook for checkmate instead of checking with the knight and then taking the rook

      I agree. It´s after 1. Qd5+ Rxd5 that instead of 2. Ne7+ Kd8 3. Rxf8# we see that immediately playing 2. Rxf8# is faster and more clinical. But sure it´s funny to toy with the king before killing it. ;)

    Level 3, when showing on the real board, you missed the rook on f1, if qxq and nf2 fork there is a rook sac, rxf2. Also there is no need for knight check, rxf8 is simply mate

    Simply taking with the rook will also lead to checkmate in the 800 smthn elo rank puzzle as the king cannot take the rook and the other rook will be forced to take our rook which leads to queen d5 mate

    On level 3 I play
    Rxf8+, Rxf8 only move
    Followed by Qd5 and checkmate is on going.
    Another is when you play
    Qf5, Rxf5
    Instead of Ne7 you should play Rxf8 mate in an instant.
    Correct me if I'm wrong. Just review again. Btw sorry for my bad English.

    For the third puzzle isn't this just a mate in two if the black rook takes (and not mate in three as you explained in the video?)
    1. Qd5+ Rxd5??
    2. Rxf8#
    is better than
    1.Qd5+ Rxd5??
    2. Ne7+?? Kh8
    3. Rxf8#
    Of course Qe6 is better for black (as it changes from mate in 2 to mate in 3)
    1. Qd5+ Qe6
    2. Qxe6+ Rf7
    3. Qxf7#

    Great content! I love these 10 Levels of tactics!!! On puzzle #4, I believe White can avoid mate by not taking the bishop with the Queen on d4, and moving the e1 rook to defense on e2 or f1. White still loses a Queen but gets a Rook and Bishop in exchange and can still fight for the game with a disadvantage though :)

    King can't go to h8 because of knight. If queen tried to come in between, we can simply take it followed by checkmate in similar order. Every move comes with check so no other moves possible for black.

  • @ddustind
    @ddustind 10 місяців тому +2

    The puzzle at 7:42 has an error. On the computer game white’s rook starts on f1, but over the table it starts h1.
    The rook being on f1 means taking the queen is fine, since you can sack the rook onto the knight when it attempts to fork.
    Checkmating is better, but you can get a nearly free queen when the rook starts on f1.

  • @KR-sf7wm
    @KR-sf7wm 9 місяців тому

    On level 4, would taking d4 with bishop first be better? This would force rook to take d4 bishop then rook to e1 check and after mate. Rook to e1 first allows d1 to take on e1 then after bishop pins queen, allows time to block b7 bishops path with the c3 knight to e4 which is also defended by the rook on e1. You could bring the other rook to e8 to threaten the e4 knight then but queen takes d4 bishop, after e8 takes e4, e1 takes e4 still blocking the white squared bishops path and e4 is defended by queen. With the first move order where bishop takes first, mate is quicker and forced. If I missed something let me know, I'm only 1200 after all, I want to improve

    I hope I'm not asking a dumb question but, being a beginner, it's really puzzling for me: isn't this tactic a deflection? We are luring a piece away so that it stops defending a particular square and I've learned that that's what deflections are. If deflection and overloading are two different tactics, can a more experienced player please explain to me their exact difference? I understand, for example, the difference between deflections and decoys, but in this case I just can't work it out...
