mate
Sort:
if there are pawns on the board, yes. if it is just two kings and a bishop then it is a draw.
A lone bishop and the king cannot checkmate the king.
If you have two bishops, then you can checkmate the king.
You can also checkmate the king with two knights.
A lone knight and the king can't checkmate the king too.
This is why the bishop and the knight are considered to be
'minor' pieces.
can a king and a bishop mate a king?
