Lol when I first saw it I was confused because you can't mate with a bishop and a king but then I realized the other pieces can trap it lol good puzzle

Bring the king down, they have to move the knight, and checkmate with the bishop

The puzzle is a lot more complicated and subtle than that.

Also, "bring the king down" isn't the solution unless you're looking from a weird angle.

1.kf2 knight moves and you check with the bishop, knight blocks and you take the knight.

Wait never mind the knight can just guard the square.

Bh5?? Lets the knight tickle you for eternity
Avatar of viacheslavmyts

Engine says its a draw?? If 1.Kf2 Ng5 2. Bh5 actually draws since the knight checks you for eternity with ...Ne4+! 3. Kf1 Ng5+! 4. Kf2 and you repeat because if 4. Bxg5 its a stalemate and if you go not to f2 or f1 with the king Black just moves the king and threathens promotion, maybe theyd win if ur not careful
