I'm a bit surprised that the solve rate is under 50%, but I thought this was moderately difficult.

I was pleased that I saw the solution quickly enough to have solved it in blitz mode. I may have seen the position before though.

Around 50% seems reasonable, since many solvers will waste their guesses on the Usual Suspects at move two. They may even go back and try different first moves, as I did. That second move is easily dismissed because it doesn't "look right", but once the idea is seen it's clear sailing.

The first two moves were hard to see. How does a puzzle like this get into the easy group?

When I solved the puzzle, the solve rate was at 46%, now it's down to 43%. I wonder if the site now counts a single misstep as failing to solve?

...moving the Q's attack rank down to the 8th rank caught me entirely by surprise, but after playing it, it totally made sense!!
