The solution the computer wants to this 1450 puzzle is to sacrifice your Queen, instead of taking with the Knight. Insanity. Maybe chess.com puzzle algo/generation needs some human Q&A??

thats because if you take the queen then it's stalemate .

Yeah now i see how dumb it is. Qf5 saccing the queen would lose on the spot.

I think around 3200-3300 it starts getting a bit weird. More calculation and evaluation with very little tactics.

Personally, untill 3000, like 90% of the puzzles are ok.

Wasn't there a puzzle where the entire gimmick was that you had to stop the 50-move rule from taking effect? That is dumb.

With a puzzle rating of 6893, I have authority to state that puzzles are fine, any puzzle can happen in a real game, since after 3 moves you hvae 121 millions possible moves. So everysequence is technically possible.
