What is a mate in 4?

Longer forced mates from real games, usually a sacrifice, a king hunt and a precise finish. Every branch is mate — finding the order is the work.

How to spot it

Divide the line into phases: strip the shelter, drive the king, deliver mate. Verify the most stubborn defense at each fork before starting.

What this set trains

Deep forcing-line calculation with a guaranteed payoff — the best stamina training tactics can offer.
