>>734355367
Robot to B15
Bazinga

Kf5

>>734355367
Far to easy! White castle down one square. Check. Black pawn takes castle. Queen takes pawn, checkmate

>>734355991
Kf5 leads to stalemate, you frog fucker

>>734355991
would result in a draw

>>734356031
black king moves diagonally left and up one.

You're a moron. Rook takes pawn above king, that's mate.

>>734356031
King escapes to c5

>>734356171
Why would you play for a stalemate and not the win?

My cock is to small to even satisfy a frog!

>>734356031
queen takes pawn lets king escape to C3 and C5

>>734356341
king takes rook...

>>734356341
king takes rook

>>734356371
just c5, c3 is covered by pawn

Queen moves to B2,
Black King forced to D3,
White Rook to E3 checkmate

>>734356279
>>734356344
But he can't. He'd be moving in to check by the queen?

if white queen is at e4 then black king can go to c5

>>734355367
Move Rook in middle up 1-3 squares doesn't matter. Move Rook on left down taking pond; checkmate.

>>734356510
How about no? King can move on c5

>>734358762
It's not. It's a mate in 2 after Qd1.

Qd1 - this gives black king 3 options: Kd3, Kc5, Kxe5. If Kd3, Rxd5. If Kc5, Qg1. If Kxe5, d2-d4.

>>734359079

GG, you're the first one to give all three variations

>>734358832
Sorry but i disagree, the Kxe5 is the first of the 2 possibility for black i treated.
He can do 2 things and both end on checkmate as i review.

Can you details how you counter the first
White Qc2 -> c4 Check

Without doing
Black Kd4 -> e5
OR
Black Pd5 -> c4
?

Cause both have been taking care of.

>>734358941
>>734359179

These are the solution. Get rekt OP

>>734358307
Sooooo... stalemate

>>734358785
Which side white base is?

Q to F5

Black must move to C5

Q to E6

Black King must move back to D4

Q to D5

That's mate, but that's mate in three.

It seems clear that most people ITT can mate in 3 or 4, but OP asks for mate in 2 which is slipping our grasp,

>>734358508
>E5 to e4
>Black has to d5 e4
>C2 e4
B. King: D4>C5

Not mate in two.

>>734358620
>Qd1 Kxe5 e4#
Kxe5 is a mistake that black should spot.
B. King: D4>C5 is a better move as it will not lead to mate in two.

>Qd1 Kd3 Rxd5#
Kxd3 is a mistake that black should spot.
B. King: D4>C5 is a better move as it will not lead to mate in two.

>Qc6 and then Qxd5 or Qf6 mate
Will not lead to mate in two because both B. K: D4>E5 and B. K: D4>D3 will stretch beyond mate in two.

As I said, mate in 3 is possible but not mate in two without black making a mistake.

>>734359639
see
>>734358941

Qc6 and then Qxd5 if the white king goes to d3 or Qf6 if the white king takes the rook..
Both mate. In 2. Easy.

Kc5 leads to Qa7, check mate

>>734360947
If you flip the axes of the board after Kc5 then yes, Qa7. Otherwise Qg1.

So we have
Qa5

If KxR, then Pd4 check mate
If Kc5, then Qa7 check mate.

Sorry, I'm pretty new to chess, but how isn't King to F5 a checkmate? I don't understand.

>>734355367
This chess font promotes unrealistic beauty standards for pawns.

Queen to d1

If king takes rook, then Pawn to d4 check mate
If king goes to c5, then Queen to a7 check mate
/thread.

>>734355367
queen b2
king d3
rook e3
checkmate

>>734361732
It's a stalemate. Black has no legal moves, but isn't in check. When that happens, it's a draw.

>>734361732
The enemy king has to be in check for it to be checkmate. If there are no legal moves but there is no check it's a stalemate and the game ends in a draw.

If Kxe5, d4++
If Kd3, Rxd5++

>>734361928
>>734361961
Hmmm, I understand now, but that's kind of a dumb rule, isn't it? I mean, to me, black would be the loser in that scenario.

The king is surrounded, and can't move without being taken, that's a loss in my book, but whatever. I'm sure theres some reason for it.

>>734362274
The King has no reason to move because he's not in danger. That's the difference. When in check, then you have to save the king but you can't. That's why it's lost.

There are puzzles where the weaker side can take advantage of this and force a stalemate to avoid losing. Just google "stalemate puzzles".

>>734362702

That's just a draw.

>>734358115

This is the correct answer

Can't believe /b/ has become so retarded over the years that it took so long for somebody to point it out

>>734358941
second one doesn't account for d3 if queen moves to g1

I've looked at this back and forth. The only way this ends in two is if black makes a serious mistake, and several of those routes end in a draw because they let black hang the game.

It's checkmate in three, not two.

>>734355367
nice b8

>>734362922
Black literally has no piece that can move to d3 at that point. If you meant d4, that's not possible either because of the rook on e5. The pawn is pinned to the king.

>>734363031
The solution has been posted multiple times. It starts with Qd1.

>>734363031
see
>>734358941

>>734363341

No, that's fucking wrong. If he goes Ke6 then Qe2 or Qe1 results in Kd4, and that leads to a second series of moves. He has to specifically respond with Kc5 for that move sequence to be valid for a two move checkmate.

>>734363594

*Ke5

>>734357126
this

yall niggas been played

>>734361649
No because then that pawn would move forwards one and block the queen

>>734363594
If Ke5, d4 is mate

>>734355367
Queen one to the left, Black King has to move down. Rook on the right takes the black Pawn on the right. Checkmate.

>Qd1.
>If Kxe5, d4++
>If Kd3, Rxd5++
>If Kc5, Qg1++

After Qd1, black can only play Ke5, Kd3 or Kc5. How is that wrong?

>>734361967
Fucking finally

>>734364007
>>734364010

But it costs a rook. I'd rather do it in 3.

F3 to F4. Checkmate.

>>734362345
stalemate

>>734355367
Izi
Queen goes D1

If king goes E5, pawn goes from D2 to D4. Checkmate

If king goes C5, queen goes G1. Checkmate

/b/ros ffs. Tell me the coordinates of the square you think the Black King is on?

>>734377638
2. D4 C5
3. G6 D6

king escapes to d4

>>734378208
d4?

letters are labeled at the bottom, numbers on the right

this isn't battleship, but I don't see how you can miss that...

>>734377638

In your second example, king will simply move back to E4.

>>734378324
... that'll be a Queen?

>>734378407
d4 has a black king
g4 has a white king
c2 has a white queen

I see now how if you're not used to printed notation (as opposed to live pieces) you might be confused

>>734378657
Cheers - I'm not familiar with the symbols. Have asked in thread previously which the black king is. Ty for explaining.

Qd3 then rook to d5

Done.

Start with B6->B4 to force the opponent to do D4->E5. if you start with Q, he can escape to C5.

>>734380251
stalemate. there's isn't even a check

>>734356596
pawn take, i see no checkmate in 2 atm, i see a draw, and a checkmate in 7-12 moves

>>734380130
Ke2 or c2

>>734380759
Still a win! :D

>>734380821
I'm retarted.

>>734380980
Oh wait...

>>734355367
Pawn to D3. What's black gonna do ?

>>734355367
1. Rxd5+ Kxd5 2. Qe4

>>734381516
but then the king will move to c5

Queen to E4
Black pawn takes
Rook at B6 to D6
Mate.

>>734380251
Stalemate

>>734381926
but e5

>>734371653

Not C3, but B2.

>>734382075
That rook is protected by the gods, it can't be taken.

>>734356510
This is the correct answer.

>>734382240
but if he moved to e5 it would be a different answer

>>734382481
i reclaim my answer

d5 than queen e4 retards

Qg6 Kxe5 Qf6#

nice try

>>734356912

To be precise, the queen does not have the power of the knight to jump over pieces.

>>734355367
Tower takes pawn b4
King takes tower e5
Queen to f5

>>734356510
King to C5.

>>734382970
King to d5

>>734382760
oH SHIT

>>734381342
take the rook

>>734382760
he wouldn't take the rook. he'd move the king to c5 instead

>>734382753
King c5

1. Qd1...
if 1. ...Kd3
then 2. Rxd5#
if 1. ...Kc5
then 2. Qg1#
if 1. ...Kxe5
then 2. d4#

>>734382760
This kind of seems legit, actually.

>>734355367
Right rook down 1, left room down 2

>>734355367
Rd5
Kd5
Qe4

Ita checkmate in 1 turn reeee

Pawn f4 and black has no moves left

>>734384322
That's a stalemate you retard.

>>734383703
Have a cookie

1. QB2+ KC5
2. PD4+

>>734355367
Qd2 Kxe5 d4#

Qb2(check), Kd3, Rook takes d5, CHECKMATE

>>734385216
What if black doesn't do Kd3 but Kc5 instead?

>>734385481
Welp...

>>734355367
The game is already over white already won...

>>734384888
Oops should be Qd1 not Qd2. So:

Qd1 Kxe5 d4#

>>734386136
Yeah. If the goal is to checkmate in 2 moves, black has to fuck up. But in the end, white is going to win unless they're retarded

>>734386446
Well black's pawns are blocked so it could easily be stalemate if time's running out

Queen to g6?

>>734386644
King takes rook on e5

>>734386544
That too, which would be white's fuck up though. Using the king to protect the rook would lead to a stalemate.

>>734386841
Then Qf6#, black should do Kc5

gun checkmate

>>734385216
Rxd5 is not checkmate
Ke2

pawn d3 king takes rook then checkmate queen c6

1. Qd1

...Kxe5 2. d4#
...Kd3 2. Rxd5#
...Kc5 2. Qg1#

>>734387612
I mean c7

>>734387681
Nope doesnt work fuxk

>>734386420
good job, but account for the other variations too
what if 1. ... Ke3 or 1. ... Kc5
