A puzzle showing that king can be checkmated with ONLY a knight!
Sort:
surely any of the pawns can take the knight...therefore it isnt mate
haha, check it, its a mate! look at the notation!
...? I don't get it. But maybe you are interested in a smothered mate
You can mate with one knight in a smothered mate, but that example is not correct. You ought to fix it and not try to confuse beginners.
Yeah, it's a smothered mate...The puzzle is correct, the pawn is on 7th rank not the second rank so the pawn is going up.
very funny, hahaha ( cinical), even though there is a famous mating pattern like this:
Cute. Yes, after reading Raito's explanation, it is indeed a legitimate mate, albeit one that would never occur in the real world. Still, kudos for recognizing the possibility, however statistically improbable.
What are you talking about it would never occur in the real world? Just for saying that I am going to make it happen =)
sus
silly
Stupid!
I like it.
Reminds me of another old trick, offer your opponent a game where they can remove as many of your pieces as they like, in exchange you get one move for each piece removed, hope for their greed, or talk them into taking all your pieces. Seven moves, as White, 1 g4 - 2 e4 - 3 g5 - 4 e5 - 5 g6 - 6 e6 - 7 ef7#
All these things are good for a laugh and illustrating some of the extreme possibilities that can exist.
thanks to kosmeg so I can know that a mate is possible just using one knight:
Mate with ONLY a knight lol
edited now with the puzzle.
