In the example above, the White rook is patrolling the seventh rank, preventing the Black king from moving off. While one piece prevents the king from moving away from the edge, the other can move to the same rank or file as the king to deliver a checkmate. The white Queen is defended by the white Knight and the black King cannot go anywhere. A lone king against the edge of the board is easily checkmated by any two major pieces. The white Queen, along with the white Bishop, decide to corner the black King.īegin with putting your Bishop into position and then lining up your Queen to slide into the square beside the black King.
The black King is completely blocked in by their own Pawns and Rook. There is no difference if you are black or white, you can be checkmated by the Queen and Bishop if you sit in a corner of the chess board with your King. In this Cornered King move, the white Bishop is already in position first and then the white Queen slides up, while defended by the white Bishop, into the corner where the black King thinks they’re protected. It actually limits the movement of the King. Often some opponents think that by putting their King into a corner that the King would be better protected – not true. This is only successful if black doesn’t decide to move their black pawn from “f7” to “f6″ (defended by another pawn to its side). Lastly, we move the white Queen into “f7” position, taking the black pawn and calling it a Checkmate. Then moving the white Bishop in “c4” position to help defend the white Queen. Then the white Queen into “f3” position to set the white Queen up for a capture.
This is a very classic Queen/Bishop Checkmate. Therefore, this is a clean Queen-Bishop Checkmate. Grab your dancing shoes ChessKids In this video the bishops tango their way up the board and work together to checkmate the enemy king. Also, the black Queen has the white King in “Check” with anywhere it moves. Why? The black King cannot capture the black Queen because she is defended by the black Bishop. However, if we move the black Queen in front of the white King, then it becomes checkmate.
The black Bishop is protecting their King but its also threatening to take the pawn. Lets look at how the Bisphop and Queen (of the same colour) work together to Checkmate the opposing King. The Bishop is waiting for a piece to move out of its way, just so that it can attack. Often we and our opponents forget the long range that a Bishop can attack from.Ī Bishop can sit in the corner and completely forgotten by your opponent. The mighty Bishop, let us not forget has a long range attack.
