How To Checkmate With A Rook And King?
In chess, knowing how to checkmate with just a rook and a king is a crucial skill to have. And the box technique is a popular and effective method for achieving this.
In this video, we will go through step-by-step instructions on how to set up the board, how to execute the box technique, and how to recognize the patterns that will lead to the checkmate. You will learn about the role of the rook in the checkmate, and how to force the enemy king to move towards the edge of the board.
We will also discuss some common mistakes to avoid and how to anticipate your opponent's possible defenses. By the end of this video, you will have a solid understanding of how to checkmate with a rook and a king using the box technique.

I checkmated my friend once with a rook and my king when she had her 2 rooks, she made the mistake of giving me a free turn without check and moving her king into the corner

You can move your rook to 'waste' a move. Then their King will have to get opposite you.

@mncdssctn9110 Ай бұрын

When time is not a factor, I almost prefer to use a rook rather than a queen. I don’t trust myself to not walk into a stalemate.

@hyemster2274 6 күн бұрын

when using queen, just make sure when king is on the edge of the board, the queen is not placed in knight position

@ianjohnson171 4 ай бұрын

This only works if your opponent doesn't know what they're doing and puts their king in front of yours

As a blind person I think you should say where they are moving to more often ❤️

the reason why i dont give the coordinates more often is because i feel most people dont know them so they get lost with them. I will definitely try my best to explain better so you can follow 🙏🏼
