can 900 rated solve this ?
I solved all of them, but a 900 ratedd apparently done it better than me, so I was wondering if it's even possible
First puzzle: very standard theme
second puzzle: there’s only one move that can realistically work it’s just a matter of seeing why
third puzzle: again not very difficult because it’s quickly clear that the moves Qxh2 Nxg2 or Rxf2 are not working so it’s then just a matter of spotting the idea
fourth puzzle was a little bit more unusual geometry but again you’re very limited in what you can actually consider as black is threatening moves such as …Qe1+ spoiling the party.
So in summary it’s hard to conclude if a 900 can or cannot solve these but I do know a couple of VERY weak players (under 1000) that solve puzzles pretty well but who never get any sort of decent rating because when they play they can’t stop blundering. So it depends on the individual imo.
Bruh it's so obvious i should be ashamed. I'm sure it didn't take you 20 minutes. Thanks for the details.
see that's my point, if you can't find the solution, how can a 900 elo find the answer better than me
