Lucario attacks like Alekhine! (Literally.)

Jacobshinn

Alexander Alekhine was my inspiration for making this game, so hopefully this game with annotations can teach more chess players on how to attack just like Alekhine, just like how Lucario did it.

Let me know what you guys think.

I sure hope my annotations made the game even more instructive for more chess players, especially beginners.

I have more Lucario chess stories coming in the future. I still have to find or create a game that leads to this position for my Lucario vs Toshineko game: https://www.chess.com/puzzles/problem/44018

But isn't Nikita a male name?


From what I searched, Nikita appears to be a feminine name too, though I could be wrong.

I know a person called Nikita and he is a man. But it is more of a popular russian name for boys.

https://duckduckgo.com/?q=nikita+female+name&atb=v253-1&ia=web I have searched this one through Duckduckgo, and there were results that says that Nikita can be a female name.

Dang! lol! Oh well. Looks like I'm not good with Russian names.

My search on that name on Duckduckgo said otherwise, but I guess I didn't search hard enough. Anyway, what did you think of the game?

What if black plays Ne5 instead of taking the queen?

Jacobshinn
@ajl721x Exactly.
Jacobshinn

Stockfish also suggested black playing Qxf2+ instead of taking white's queen, but it would only delay the inevitable.

Jacobshinn

Also, feel free to come up with your own continuation after 17. ...g6.

Jacobshinn

What move should black make instead of 24. ...f6?

Ndf6 is better. Keep the g-pawn nicely guarded.


Correct! After Ndf6, Nf5+ Kh8, the queen sac would be a blunder, because of two pawns protecting the g-pawn.

Hopefully, this game can help improve my chess as well, with how Alekhine attacks.
