Classic Tournament - Game 5 (Round 1 Defeated Bracket) - Puzzles versus BattleChessGN18

(The following links provide instructions on how the pieces play: Witch and Guard)

Hello, all! Welcome to match 5, a first round's defeated bracket game in Classic Tournament 2024; established by @Marks1420. Contestants are @Puzzles (formerly Pootzies, formerly Player4Speed) and yours truly (@BattleChessGN18).

White: Puzzles

Black: BattleChessGN18

Rules of Bulldog Correspondence apply to this match.

Outcome of match will be reported back to @Martin0, @VM_LeaderAbhyudaya or @Puzzles for rating adjustments. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I will typically render diagrams after 1 pair of moves (1 black move, 1 white move); though, as many as 2 pairs of moves (black-white-black-whitr move) can be made without a diagram. After that, please call "Waiting for Board" or "WFB".

Diagrams will reflect a pair of moves at a time.

Diagrams will be rendered from the perspective of White (@Puzzles's view). Though, secondary diagrams from Black's (@BattleChessGN18's) perspective will also be provided.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The match will officially begin, once @Puzzles makes a move. Best of luck to my opponent! =)

Your gamehost (and opponent),
