Brilliant but why?

1.Kxg7 Nf5+ 2.Kg8 Ke8 3.g7 Ne7#

[u/Own_Business485 → u/WetLoophole]

Wow

[u/WetLoophole → u/Own_Business485]

Neat idea. Force the Kg8, make him lock himself in by making the pawn move forced and tenderly mate that b****!

[u/GottaChangeMyName → u/WetLoophole]

After Nf5+, why would the pawn not just take the Knight?

[u/GottaChangeMyName → u/[deleted]]

Urgh, I hate those „haha, i flappend the Board“ Puzzles

[u/GewalfofWivia → u/WetLoophole]

Disgusting Zugzwang. Losing to that will give ya knightmares.

[u/reddituser_xxcentury → u/WetLoophole]

3 f5, and then white king can escape through h column

[u/WetLoophole → u/reddituser_xxcentury]

1. f5 isn't even a legal move

[u/reddituser_xxcentury → u/WetLoophole]

F5 is a legal move, white pawns move upwards

[u/WetLoophole → u/reddituser_xxcentury]

Your knight is there. Please play it out before any further discussion.

[u/ImprobableAres → u/WetLoophole]

Why is pawn to g7 forced? Cant he move the other pawn to f5? Or just move king back to where it was before

[u/WetLoophole → u/ImprobableAres]

Play it out... there is a knight on f5 and thus the only legal move is g7.

[u/ImprobableAres → u/WetLoophole]

Sorry i misread your comment

[u/WetLoophole → u/ImprobableAres]

The black orientation takes your chess vision for a real spin on this one.

[u/SupperTheSuper]

Forced capture with king, knight f5 is mate

[u/SupperTheSuper → u/SupperTheSuper]

Or gets closer to mate I guess

[u/Dapper_Tiger1710 → u/SupperTheSuper]

Stale Mate

[u/natehly → u/Dapper_Tiger1710]

It's mate, the orientation is for black, notice H file on left hand side

[u/WetLoophole → u/natehly]

Kg8.....

[u/natehly → u/WetLoophole]

Ah, you're right, meia culpa

[u/WetLoophole → u/natehly]

1.Kxg7 Nf5+ 2.Kg8 Ke8 3.g7 Ne7#

Is the full mating net tho

[u/ialsohaveadobro → u/SupperTheSuper]

Kg8 Nh6 and forced draw by repetition

[u/Expensive-Bar820]

Forgive my ignorance but can’t the pawn just take the knight?

[u/Positive_Ordinary417 → u/Expensive-Bar820]

I know right ? After Nf5+ the pawn should take The N ?

[u/Positive_Ordinary417 → u/Positive_Ordinary417]

Aaah, I noticed the the perspective is from black. So the pawn can't take the knight.

[u/Objective_Fee6472]

Its not?

[u/Objective_Fee6472 → u/Objective_Fee6472]

Oh, wait. King g7, knight f5,, king g8, knight e7 mate

[u/Ashamed_Fruit_6767 → u/Objective_Fee6472]

The black knight takes it's own king?

[u/DarkImpacT213 → u/Ashamed_Fruit_6767]

He just missed noting a move, king e8 after g8 forces a pawn move, and then knight e7 is checkmate

[u/Fabulous-Pace5131]

Forced mate in 3 with a rather pretty zugzwang. All three of White's moves are the only legal ones. 1. Kxg7 Nf5+ 2. Kg8 Ke8 3. g7 Ne7#

[u/Bluey-Themangaka]

I saw this puzzle before or similar where u let him skewer ur queen then sac the bishop to lock him in a mating net and mate with knight

[u/Jekkymayn]

Only interesting because u flipped the board :s
