Is there Checkmate?

See if there really is checkmate... or is it just a strong attack?

Ok so the point of Qe4 was to threaten checkmate. SO pretend the bishop on h3 is on a2 and put a pawn where the bishop was. ok? still its not the best move. but for the alternative checkmate one, it is worth it :P

This seems like an awful line. After 5. Kg2 white is way better than black! Black has sacrificed a massive advantage for absolutely nothing!

In fact, I'm willing to bet money that 2...Qe4 is almost the worst move in that position.

Or if you want the mate, its mate in 6.

Ok your right black in that position could have easily got better. So why not try the one where it says checkmate and forget the 1st one?

Avatar of Lord-Chaos

oh crap your right as well because Qe4 doesnt threaten checkmate at all. everyone pretend this is blitz and this is what anyone moving fast would do =))

-_- i took like 1 hour on that because the chess wizard is SO BAD, and if you make one mistake on board editor, you gotta start from scratch again and write down the position etc =( SO LONG. and you gotta put all the whites pieces in  a way that looks okay otherwise its just like putting them here to oneside and cover you with pawns so you cant do anything =P they should have a back button so you can go back to the blidy board editor.

You begin with the wrong move, if you find the right move there is a clear win for black.

Yeah that'll workCool Qe4 move threw me off a bit. Blacks bishops are overwhelming.
