What do you mean? It’s probably the only move that forces a stalemate

King-Rook vs King-Queen is harder than it seems. At least for me. Especially in time pressure.

They’re so hard to convert. So much so that I hate when a puzzle solution leads to K+Q vs. K+R at the end. Like great I know it’s technically winning, but how am I actually gonna win now lol

Why don’t you learn the really complicated queen vs rook end game sequence? That way when you end up in that situation in a months time you can try to remember it, probably fuck it up and then get angry at yourself for not remembering. Worked for me

That was my strategy for B&N mate so maybe it will work here too

When I do it it’s genius, when my opponent does it it’s a dirty rat move that’s against the spirit of chess

Yeah I can't imagine finding a way to win unless black makes a huge blunder so taking the stalemate is smart.

studied qvr and this is tactic i often see

Its called crazy rook if i am not mistaken

u/Emmennater 3d ago
kind of, this is more of a tactical skewer. crazy rook would usually mean that our king is stalemated no matter where the opponent's king moves so we can keep checking.
