If I didn't misclick, was there anyway i could've checkmated my opponent in like 5-15ish moves.

A helpmate is when a player deliberately sets up a mate for his own king and then is checkmated, while there were much better moves in the position

A 'helpmate' is also a puzzle based on the above. Similar to a mate in 3 puzzle, you might have a helpmate in 3 puzzle

well you couldnt have checkmated your opponent, but you were winning.
