A
fastest en passant mate
Sort:
This is called scholars mate and it’s the very first checkmate that everyone learns to play, and the first one you need to learn to defend! If you take a moment after his Qh5 move and realize that he’s threatening Qf7 checkmate, you need to defend that. There are several good moves that’ll actually give you a big advantage!
