Learn How to Win Material: Discovered Attack
This middlegame puzzle comes from the Scotch Game, Goring Gambit, where White’s active pieces create a tactical refutation of Black’s setup. The key idea is a discovered attack: by moving one piece, White opens a line for another attacker and simultaneously removes a defender. Here, the king is still in the center, so forcing moves matter more than quiet consolidation. The combination wins material by exploiting pins, checks, and the exposed coordination of Black’s pieces.
