Hello! Welcome to another Runinja posts and today we will talk about some extremely hard puzzles which are hard beacause of their rating. Right? Actually today I will show you a few 4000 rated puzzles on Chess.com that might be a little tricky or lightwork for you! 

Puzzle 1:  Rook Roller

In the first puzzle White had just played Kd3. Any ideas on how to start this difficult puzzle? wink

 Yes! It is a mate in 1 puzzle which has a rating of 4000 because... I don't know. Good Question!

Puzzle 2: The Royal Horse

In this puzzle we are seen with our knight being attacked and our rook ready to be taken with mate! Oh No! How can we get out of this one?happy

Yes! You got it! (hopefully ) we just take the queen on d8 with check which is the important part or else Black can take our rook mating us. Maybe this is why it has a rating of 4000? 

Puzzle 3: The Pawn Race

This puzzle might be a bit more difficult for some... however it still is easy if you have an idea! . Black played the move Kd6?? which is losing ( g6! is drawing)

The puzzle might seem for some that I just go after the Black pawns, however the Black keep is fast enough. We had to therefore make Black's king able to take our e-pawn on e6 therefore making it harder to reach the g-pawn. Out of about 11,000 times only around 50% of people passed this 4000 rated puzzle. 
Look! Even Chess.com says the puzzle is simple



Puzzle 4: The Attack

This is the last puzzle of this 4000 puzzle rating blog. This one is decently difficult however out of 14,000 people 80% of people have got this.Make sure to know about patience when you are attacking . Anyways Good Luck, and Thankyou for reading this blog and I will see you soon.  Runinja
