White to Play, Mate in 2

Oh no

They fell for it. They said “Wow” and resigned immediately after

My weirdest looking checkmate yet

Why would Black play this?

I was playing computer and it played this move and I mated in 2. But for life of me I can't figure out why it would move the defender. Is there actually any tactic I am missing?

might not be very impressive, but I found my first forced mate in more than two moves

How does this qualify as "brilliant"??

I am not a chess beginner, but I do have many questions

How?

How is it even possible to deliver a checkmate with a king?

My dad asked me to teach him about chess, and this happened in our first game

I started without a queen to balance the odds for anyone wondering

Am really proud of myself for finding this checkmate
