Mate in one puzzles
1. White to move
2. White to move

Can you solve all in less than one minutes?
Offered my opponent a draw, he rejected it, maybe thinking I would get flagged.
I later won the game because he made a blunder.
One of the satisfying moment in my chess journey 😄
I've been building a Discord game called Last Reaction.
The rule is simple: wait for the signal, react at the right time, and survive.
One wrong move can cost you a life.
Now I need more communities to test it with

🇺🇸 Hikaru Nakamura: "I think I'm still in the top five in classical chess"
Hikaru Nakamura on the top players in classical chess:
"If I were active and still studying all the time, which I have started doing in advance of Clutch Chess, I think I'm still in the top five.
A lot of people don't realize that the Candidates is a very different animal from other events. Everyone is juiced to the gills with preparation, so it's much harder to get an advantage. People see someone play badly at the Candidates and think they're completely washed and can't play chess, which is completely wrong, in my opinion.
If you ask me for the top five right now, I'd say Magnus, myself, Nodirbek and Sindarov, and then it's a free-for-all. Fabi, Arjun, Pragg, it's everybody. You can even put me in that same group with Fabi.
But again, it's hard to judge because classical chess doesn't happen that frequently. There just aren't that many classical tournaments, so it's very hard to judge."

Is Magnus still the best classical player in the world right now, based on current form?
I'm not talking about overall greatness, just current form.
