Amazing comments, everyone. Do you know good checkmates in 2 moves?

I did it once, but it’s a secret move I save for special occasions.

This makes absolutely no sense. If it was impossible to checkmate "in one move" then it would be impossible to win the game.

Are you actually using any of the learning features that come with a diamond membership?

as far as i learned there are just 2 or 3 mate-in-2s so far explored but in an age of developing computers it could be possible that others will be discovered very soon.

lol

there are 400 positions after 1 move for white and black, and 20 after 1 move for white

that's 420 positions, and none of them are checkmate
