Learn How to Spot: Discovered Attack
This middlegame puzzle shows how a discovered attack can turn a stable-looking position into a winning tactical sequence. Black’s active bishop creates a direct threat while also uncovering pressure on the white queen, forcing White into a response that loses material. The key idea is that one piece can both attack and reveal a stronger attack behind it. In classical chess, these hidden tactical motifs often decide games when the opponent’s pieces are overloaded or poorly coordinated.
