Last night I played a game of cat and mouse with my opponent in a chess tournament, and managed to capture white's queen on h5 that gave me a tactical advantage, but I still had to trap and corner white's king into checkmate using a queen and a rook to achieve that goal while moving a pawn that was blocking the rook from protecting my queen that delivered the checkmate all while avoiding white's bishop that was being protected by one of white's rooks.
