that's on me I literally set the board up wrong LOL I asked about pushing the pawn and mentioned "if black takes", but the way I set it up was as if the pawn was already pushed and it was white to move

now that I have it set up properly, yeah pushing pawn is a throw. seems like every move of the king is still winning for white, but I could not even come close to telling you why C4 or E5 is better than anything else (or what the best move even would be), so for that purpose of the puzzle I fail

if I had to pick something just to pick something, I'd pick Kc4

I blitz for the challenge of blitzing. I'm quite busy and rarely have time for games so another time would be cool.

Link doesn't work, post a screenshot.

Here are 3 traps out of the Ruy Lopez for you. Two for white one for black.
