Arabian Mate

A form of check mate where a knight and a rook team up to trap the opposing king in a corner of the board.

Example/Tactic 1:

 

Sacrifice with the Queen to Checkmate!

Here is another:

2.

 

Different type but still same mate.

The Rook will Checkmate on one of the squares right next to the King. In the last case, h2, or g1

In both of these examples, we saw that at least 1 of your opponents pieces is blocking his own king escape squares

 

That is Arabian Mate

Yes @Swisspizza28 .. It was a mate but I think there is a bug. That position is indeed checkmate

Oh, The board was facing the wrong way Haha. Sorry about that. That, in a real game where the board is facing the right way, would be mate
