Show me any puzzle you think I couldn't solve

I believe that the only legal move would be to resign

?

This is like a 200-rated puzzle. Black to play:

Now White can resign, yes.

(I'm guessing that was the joke ...)

One thing that sucks about having an inflated bullet rating is I think some people find it more offensive when I say something like this but...

... OP is rated too high for such stupid stuff.

Nice bullet rating, indeed!

But yes, you're right. I stared at the original puzzle for a good 30 seconds in confusion, thinking there was some brilliant tactic for White that I simply couldn't see.

Ah, I guess what you meant is that black doesn't defend properly in that puzzle and eats with rook instead of blocking with the queen, makes sense, however when I'm given a puzzle my job is solving it for the side I'm playing, so I don't normally check if the opposite side blunders.

Ok, that's fair.

A bit of advice though, it will help your games if you solve puzzles by trying to find the best defensive moves too. If you just guess aggressive looking moves your puzzle rating may go up, but it's not going to help very much in games.

The logic is that you first solve the puzzle in your head before executing the moves. And your head should count on the opponent playing the best moves - in so far it matters.

There are 2 kinds of "blunders" in chess. The first one gives away game points, e.g. you lose instead of winning. The second kind looks like a blunder but isn't really one. It may actually be a very clever move. You give up a queen rather than a knight but the queen win is a bit harder to see. And as both lead to easy victories for your opponent why not take the risk? Chess.com often picks a defense to force you to find an "only continuation" not because it is the "best"defense. And why not? Mathematically, all losing defenses are equal. Some tablebase endgame programs come up with a random piece sac in positions that remain drawn anyway. Just to say that black has choice in the #1 puzzle as long as he doesn't blunder the win!

This should be hard enough for you

After Qe8+, black plays Qd8. Find the mate now. Sorry there isn't one. Blacks 3 connected passed pawns will win.

Great puzzle. I couldn't solve it.

Took me... 2-3 minutes?

But I'm familiar with these "hard mate in 2" positions and I have a process

(don't read hints if you want to solve it on your own)
Pretend it's black to move and find your checkmates... there is usually 1 move that is not instant checkmate, so once you resolve that you've solved the puzzle.

This one was a little harder because for example after 1...Rc8 and 1...Qd3 there's no mate in one... which means the first move has to help set up mate in 1 regardless of whether black is giving up control of c5 or d6 (at least this is how my reasoning went) so then I looked for ways to set up Nd6 or Nc5 mate.

I've solved harder mate in 2s where even after this I basically had to resort to checking every legal move.

The original puzzle is flawed.

The puzzle is to figure out how!

But it's not a puzzle.

Are you so bad at chess you can't make up a simple puzzle?

Note: I used a begineer puzzle for this example.

Should I change to an advanced puzzle?

Incorrect. It's below a beginner puzzle.

It's a puzzle by someone who is so bad at chess that they don't know how back rank mates work.

Now, now, we don't have to resort to insulting.

An advanced puzzle like this.
