"Knives and Forks"

(#5) About the sicillian one. e5 does seem to give white a HUGE advantage, black can't take because of Bf4 and the knight have to reteat. an assault on d6 would then come and I don't know how long can black survive. but the fact that you can't immediatly play Ne4 (due to Qxe5) does make the assault a little weaker and might give black some time to orgenaize. still leaving white with a huge advantage, but not with a point just yet.

the others are kinda straight forward.
(#3) solution to the mate in 2: 1... Kb8 2.(any) Bc8#


Edit: Wow, You posted #8-#10 while I was writing my comment, respect...

#9 is the trickiest one here, indeed a very nice puzzle, but after you see the mating pattern it's easy.

ShadowIKnight

Correct on #5 and #3. Posting is just a matter of copy + paste, and some scribble really :D The new ones take slightly longer to upload but thats not a problem.

"Ignorant King", another puzzle I made. Note that this puzzle is actually a mate in 9, but the main ideas are you know, in there<<< The winning moves anyway -.-

This puzzle was created with the ending mate pattern in mind =)

ShadowIKnight

"Amazing mate in 18". I did NOT make this puzzle.

ShadowIKnight

Edited.

ShadowIKnight

A deep instructive puzzle, also came from one of my games waay back, which I think I drew =P But afterwards I found the winning line... of course its way above my head lol, but maybe you can solve it? Move list for deeper analysis.
