Hey Chessers! 11/10/2021 I just saw a new endgame and wanted everybody else to know it too . This type of endgame is not common, but it's possible that you might encounter it. Although I sounded like I know how to do it, sadly I don't know. But I will soon find out with your help . I already tried learning from lichess, but still not familiar. The point is, you want to force his king to a corner the same colour as your bishop for the last part where you deliver a checkmate.
- EXAMPLE - M1 = move 1 #1 Restricting the King to the First Triangle (White to move)
M1: Move your king closer to the center. M4: White now controls the center. black will usually try to move towards the wrong corner (h8 in this case). This looks like a good opportunity to get your Bishop into the game. M7: Get knight in the game. ~https://lichess.org/practice/checkmates/knight--bishop-mate/ByhlXnmM/D23EYigW
#2 Restricting the King to the Second Triangle (Black to move)
M2: Play a waiting move to force black's king back. M8: Avoid putting your King on d5, because that is where you want your Knight to end up. M12: Get the Knight to cover b6, c7 and e7.
#3 Restricting the King to the Third Triangle (Black to move)
