After I have first seen this motif, I started searching for sacrifices to achieve such a mate. Has not worked yet, but I love this mate :)

A perfect masterpiece.Please be relevant, helpful & nice!

3. (1) Nd8+ Kf8

3. (2) Nd8+ Kg8

4. (1) Qf7#

4. (2) Qe8+ Qf8

5. Qf8#

SMOTHERED IS RIGHT!!!!

two interesting ways to do it

Nothing wrong with it. Today's answer had a queen sacrifice and a

smothered mate with a knight so that's obviously the right one.

Not Bad...i have seen this before but its fun to solve such puzzles yet

Completely true.  There is nothing wrong with that line.  I don't think this puzzle is supposed to have 2 solutions.  Maybe the composer didn't see this?

Hi everyone!

It is good old Fischer style!:)

Bravo for another version of mate in 5, it proves that is allways good to be creative and thoughtful!
