On move 24 you could've won his Queen!

 

But it was a really amazing mate. P.s. Ender's game is one of my favorites. Have you ever read Frank Herbert's Dune series? If you like Ender, you'll love Muad'dib.

Knights are cool, but in the first game, 24. ... Qc3+ is already mate. Queens are pretty good too.

Yes, knights are great, and I used to love them, but now I'm more Queen. Nice games btw. You have greatly improved. Smile

In the first game, there was Qc3 mate (on moves 26 and 27).

Nice game.

Btw, in the first game, I hope you realize that black had no real compensation for material deficit and he was in trouble. Good thing that your opponent made a few mistakes and  good for you for spotting them and exploiting them.

 24...Qc3 is faster checkmate. 25...Qc3 leads to immediate checkmate next move.

26...Qc3 is mate.  So is 27...Qc3.

 

24.Ne4# is also a very cute mate though.

 

Well done.

By the way, it's confusing when a few games are posted in the same forum topic. You can open as many as you want. I think it would be more convenient for everyone if you post each game separately in the forum.

 

Makes it easier to discuss.
