Commentaire du juge Manfred Rittirsch : « Without a doubt this is a very good hs#. However, big parts of the scheme, including everything around the white mating net, have already been used before by the author (see G61 1st Prize Schakhmatnaya kompozitisya 162/2022 and 12888 feenschach 250/12.12.2022, available on www.feenschach.de and diagrammed above as G and H) and elaborated further in at least 9 problems during 2023 (see e.g. 5466 Tehtäväniekka/iii 2023; 4543 Pat a Mat 123/iii 2023; 4929 Best Problems 106/iv 2023 asf.). This makes it very hard to evaluate the special merits of each single instance. I guess that several captures producing a Chumakov and a Zilahi-like wrangle + echoed S moves yield one of the best settings in this context, but I cannot rank it higher with the other variations in mind, especially the early one already awarded a Prize. »
