Just look at this picture. Can you find a mate in one? chesspawn

Yes? Is it a checkmate for sure? Or do you think it's impossible?

Then let's see! diamond

Would you move to c8 with the white rook? wr This cannot be mate in one move, because the black king bk can capture the white knight. wn (However, it can be a mate in 2) Let's just see:

But what if we play knight wn to c6? Is it a checkmate? No. In this position the black king bk can simly captures the white rook wr:

So: not a knight wn move, not a rook wr move... We can not check the black king bk  with the queen wq.... If we move wit the pawn wp, that will not be a mate either.... tear

However I started this challenge by asking: can you find a mate in one? IS there any mate in one? Yes. Becouse I've never told you whose move it was. It's not white's move. It's black's move. How can we do that? Look at the picture again! Can you find it now? Yes? Or no? Then I'll show you:

THAT IS A CHECKMATE IN ONE! gold

Did you find it?
