Huh

This is the only sequence that is mate in two. Rook to g2..g5 is met by Bg6, Ra1 met by Be4, Rc1 - Bc2, Rd1 - Bd3, Rf1 - Bf5. These lead to mate in 3 at best. (don't take the bishop!!! it's poisoned)

too easy.

I dont think it was a puzzle as the solution was obvious. A puzzle must require some thought.
So in other words you know that the solution was obvious to everyone else too? That's amazing!

Awesome puzzle!

I wont agree that this is good puzzle as there are many right solution, almost all moves of Rook are right, exept a1, b1, e1.PS. I'd like to propose to chess.com developers to block messages like "1st" "first" "first page" or something like that, and mark users who post that messages as "idiot"

alright, but there were some better counters for black ( I think), though they lost in the long run.

Why do people post "first"?
for some people to ask why
like the way you defined the bishop
