Holy crap that was difficult. Great puzzle!

Solution

1. g8=N! b5 2. Ne7! Kxb4 3. Nc6#

impossible problem

It is really difficult!

mosai, not to underestimate your chess abilities but were you able to find the answer on your own or did you have help obtaining it? 

It's not impossible, shivank2005,just insanely difficult.

I found it by myself

yeah i looked all  varitions

tough

Keep trying, shivank2005, you only think you tried all the variations. I thought I did, too, but I overlooked something !

Great job, mosai, I applaud your effort!

POSITIONALchess7, I changed the color because it gives others a chance to find the answer. Thank you for your understanding.

Cute, but this kind of theme has almost become pedestrian in studies due to overuse, so the idea isn't too hard to find if you've solved enough studies.  I guess that's nitpicking, though...  But I'll try to one-up you with a master level continuation to find (both players missed correct play in the game, but can't blame them...) in response.  After going through the puzzle, go back to see notes:

Parnon, I've seen this situation by two GM's recently, I just don't remember who they were...I'll attempt it though.

I found It

clockblockerz, the bizarre thing is that on top of being a study, it was also played in a game in Sweden, according to Dvoretsky:  Laveryd - Wikstrom, 1997.  Game continuation from the starting position of the study was 1... h6? 2. h3? h5 3. h4 g5 4. g3 g4 0-1.

It seems to me that most people who are solving this are all rated around 1800-2000 so I'm overestimating the difficulty of the equation and underestimating the ability of the players. Impressive work for whoever found it on their own.

Great thinking! Solved by taking a lot of time though (Im rated around 1200 btw) Great puzzle phildmasta. Thank you
