If you look at the 'achievement' section in your awards, you'll find there are five achievements called 'Killer ...'. There's Killer Queen, Killer Rook, Killer Bishop, Killer Knight, Killer Pawn. They basically mean you've checkmated with the piece.

However, there's no 'Killer King'. You can technically checkmate with a king by discovered check. I think the reason there's no such achievement may be because, first, the king is not actually giving the check (though things like discovered check by a knight work I think), and second, because people would be messing around in the endgame for 40 moves to get the award.

I did this in a game (with a bot named Martin, he really didn't mind) and you can see what I mean by 'messing around in the endgame' :

Moves 32 to 75 were spent on setting the mate up.

because

There is. It is not achievable against bots. Only against real players. Btw did you read this whole thread, because if you did you would have knowen the answer.

I think the achievement doesn't show up, UNLESS you have checkmated with a king. if you have in the past. it may have not been added at that time.

Avatar of neelan68

how do you get it ?

Avatar of SmartRook149

You have to use the king to get a discovered checkmate.

So basically move the king, and the opponent gets a discovered check which leads to checkmate. Cause you move the king and the opponent gets checkmated.
