Trapped Piece

With the right pawn moves, you can take away your opponent's safe squares. Even queens are vulnerable to being trapped because any trade for a lesser piece is dangerous.

Discovered Attack

A discovered attack occurs when you move one piece to reveal an attack from a piece behind it. These moves can be very powerful because the opponent can only move one piece at a time.

Discovered Check

The discovered check is a powerful type of discovered attack. Because the attack is against the king, you get a free move with the piece you are moving to attack or capture an opposing piece.

Double Check

A double check is the most forcing move in chess. You make a double check by using a discovered check and also checking with the piece that you move.

Remove the Defender

Often the opponent defends against a threat with one piece, but that piece can be captured or threatened. If you can capture a defender, then what it was guarding will no longer be protected.

Smothered Mate

When a knight checkmates a king, which is surrounded by its own pieces, it's called a smothered mate.

Deflection

Deflection is the tactic of removing a defender by making it move to another square. Often this involves a sacrifice that will be worth it for checkmate or greater material gains.

Decoy

Decoy is a tactic where you force a piece to a square that it doesn't want to be on. This can be used to remove a defender, lure a piece into a fork or even lure a king into checkmate.
