Source unknown, some sites assign it to Oppressive Silence comics by Ethan Vincent. But that website in the corner is shady

Have to put him in check, while also preventing him from moving into another spot that could also put him into check.
This would likely have been a stalemate anyway.
Edit: the bishop’s existence didn’t even register to me when I made this comment. More pieces are better, and yes, King and Queen are sufficient to mate. However, the fewer the pieces you have, the lower your chances of success.
King and queen is fully sufficient to checkmate
I said likely. I know it’s sufficient, but it’s not inevitable.
It is inevitable, there’s no maybe about it
It’s been a long time since I played, but king+queen+bishop should be pretty achievable?
It is, king and queen is all you need
How come? I’m not very good at chess personally but I was under the impression that queen-bishop-king was generally sufficient to force a mate.
Somehow I didn’t even register the existence of the bishop. It’s possible to mate with just king and queen, but more pieces the better.
