win the queen in 3 moves:

Hint: a skewer is the idea to win the queen. You need an underpromotion with check. But how?

That was… a lot. How do you come up with that?

I start by pasting PGNs of winning GM games into the analysis tool. Then I run a review of the game which produces a graphical representation of the accuracy of each move throughout the game. I then look for a position with a +3 or greater advantage in the middle game where the Queens are still on the board. The analysis tool recommends several potential lines that maintains or improves the advantage. I look for a line that shows a Queen capture. I reject many games that result in a Queen trade until I find a game with a Queen capture.
