Puzzle no1: 

"Grandmasters and Engines Couldn't Solve This Puzzle. Then Came The Magician". This puzzle was composed by Gijs van Breukelen. It was created in somewhat around 1970 but published in the 1990s.  This is one of the hardest puzzles ever composed as leave alone Grandmasters, engines could not solve it either! Everyone thinks that Black is winning with passed pawns and a knights. Yet white can force a win soon....

Puzzle no:2
 
This puzzle was composed by Ottó Bláthy in 1922. This involves a lot of chess thinking in terms of strategy, tactics, moves & ideas. White has just one pawn and a king whereas, black has all his pieces. But still White can win this game. White needs to find the best moves & ideas in which white can trap black in the corner and checkmate the black king. This is a really interesting & unique puzzle and we can learn some important chess concepts out of this brilliant endgame composition. This will help us in move calculation & emphasize on the idea of restriction in chess.

This one is dubbed as the "Stairway to Heaven". White may have some positional advantage, yet if he is not careful, it's going to be a stalemate.

My best game(Yep see the move no 15wr.png and 25wn.png 😜I thought I would be Bobby Fischer Lite, worked!)

 

 
Unfortunately, this game ended in a draw because my time finished! It was a mate in 2- I am so dumb! I missed two mating chances! Still I like this game a lot🥰
