Lemme explained in a much simpler way: step number 1 create a box with the rook, once the king attacks the rook you protect it with your king while still maintains eye to eye contact with the king and just keep cutting the box until it’s checkmate.

@@Cubgo_ Are you serious? Do you think people go online and start a game of chess just to test their ability at running through a list of instructions from an outside source? Are you not concerned about how disrespectful that is? I don't care how informal the situation is; you shouldn't rely on anything other than your own mind. That is the spirit of the game.

So in these games, was it just you having king and rook and your opponent having a king? Because in that case, it seems strange that you lost. The only realistic way for you to lose would be for you to resign, and I don't know why you would do that.

If they're in the box and they step toward the rook you play a waiting move with the king, and the next move they have to move step away. There is only 1 square they can attack the rook from. If they go anywhere else you make the box smaller.

So basically I use a similar way, but I basically do it like this, yk how to checkmate with rook an king right? Like not at the corner, force the king to face your king and then mate with rook, so basically I keep doing that when the king is in the middle of the board, by doing this, the only free square for the king to move to is back, so that's how I force it to the last rank/file, and then I repeat the process one last time, it takes me around 10 seconds to do the whole thing

In this situation, Black's only legal move is 1... Ka7. After that, 2. Kc6 Ka8 3. Kc7 Ka7. Now, you play a waiting move: 3. Rc6. This forces Black to play 3... Ka8, and now 4. Ra6# is mate.

Would you mind sharing the method that you are thinking about? I can only think of one, which is to force the opposing king to the edge of the board by taking away squares with your king and checking it with your rook, but that doesn't seem to be way easier.
