killer King Achievement

If you deliver mate by moving the king, it's still not the king who is giving this mate, but the piece behind. I don't understand this trophy.

It is easy, you should have 3 files, left file ROOK, right file ROOK, center file QUEEN,

Put the Rooks align with the King, but the Queen in the center file MUST be behind the King and Rooks, the opponent's King in the center file,

Lastly, move the King behind one of the rook..

SUCCEED, 

But, you must avoid of having 3 Queens, it will put you at risk for stalemate result.

This achievement should not exist...

You can’t deliver mate or checkmate with your king..!  Unless they changed the rules happy.png...The castling achievement is a different story .  Because you deliver checkmate by castling.

 

But it will be the rook who delivers checkmate.. not the king. 

All the examples people give to defend this achievement trophy are indeed won by USING the king. But it is NOT the king itself that delivers checkmate. It never will be!! Unless they change the rules. It will always be another piece.

 

I saw a guy in another topic giving an example, it wasn’t even a checkmate but a stalemate happy.png

I really hope they remove this fictional , non deserving award.

I respect all the admins and people who work on this site ... but that is my humble opinion about the killer king achievement.
