I actually used a trick from a chess.com puzzle
Sort:
Good one.
Damn nice smothered mate
Nice smothered mate, but you blundered your knight, (fxg6+ is a check)

If white takes the knight then its QxpG2 and mate for black
What a great game. I love it. 16. … Ng4 doesn’t seem like a blunder to me. I think it should get a double-exclam brilliancy mark. Your opponent played like the Nelson-bot, only moving the queen. Very nice smother-mate finish. 🙂
That was one of the Queen sacrifices of all time

The opponent takes the knight with check though, correct me if I'm missing anything
Queen sacrifice! So I guess you can teach an old dog new tricks,
