There are actually 2 versions of this.
Of course anyone can solve this if they take time and patience, but only 3% can
1st try this or calculate till the end

Took me 3 mins because I couldn't understand whether it was right because after a bishop move white seemed to have defended against the attack

They are defending, but engine says still the eval is -5. Cuz we forced massive trades and rest of the game will be won

Its okay to do mistakes you know. Guys probably just encountered more of these sacrifice ones. I mean somebody really calculated this till the end in seconds while being low elo?

i guess im part of the 3%

Avatar of Barsuj

The puzzle is for 1000+. Around 10%-20% of chess players.
Consider guys that by 3% I meant the ones that calculate everything till the end quickly and can recognize the right move. Anyways, yeah thats it

I mean I don't take these puzzles seriously so I usually spend like 10-30 sec on them before guessing some move that looks reasonable, and I usually get the first move right (which I did) but I miss the second move. And no I've seen many sacrifice puzzles and done many sacrifices in my own games.

But I must admit that it was 12:45 AM when I did it so I was too tired lol
