When I propose a theme for the tourney I secretly hoped that I’ll see at least 3-phase change of 2 mates, combination of several themes/ideas. Unfortunately participants composed nothing of the sort.
A quantity of sent entries is very few – only 7 entries, herewith in most of its ideological content is limited only by implementation of the tourney theme.
Award is the following | Отличия распределились следующим образом

1...Sc1 2.Qxc3#
Change of 3 mates in 2 phases + change of 1 mate in 3 phases + change of functions of 3 Black moves “refutation – defense” + change of functions of 1 White moves “threat – mate”. In the try there is a play of battery, in the solution – an elimination of this battery. Repeated mates on different defenses strongly reduce the impression of the problem.

Correction of Black Bishops’ play. Simple change-mates 3x2 is realized purely + change-play 2x2, but unfortunately there are repeated mates in one of phases.

Change of 3 mates in 2 phases. Black correction. In the solution there is a repeated thematic mate that decreases an evaluation of the problem.

1st Commendation - No 5, Vasil Markovcij & Mykola Chernyavskyy (Ukraine) 5k1K/2qR3P/5NBP/5N1P/8/8/8/8

1.Rg7! – 2.Rg8#
1...Qf7 2.Rxf7#
1...Qxg7+ 2.hxg7#
1...Qc4 2.Sd7#
Simple change-mate on 1...Qc4 and random change of 2 mates. It is the only problem with random change-play in this tourney but in the initial position there are dual mates on bQ moves that is a big shortcoming for block-problem.

2nd Commendation - No 6 (version), Narayanan C.G.S. (India) 8/8/8/3p1NK1/3p4/3P1kp1/Q4p2/N6R

1.Qb3? zz 1...Kg2 2.Qxd5#, 1...g2/Ke2 2.Qd1#, 1...f1~!
1.Qb1! zz
1...Kg2 2.Sh4#
1...g2/Ke2 2.Qd1#
1...f1~ 2.Qxf1#
It is the only problem sent for the tourney in which a key is a flight-giving. But this fact, of course, does not justify the existence of technical White Knight that doesn’t participate in the solution phase.

3rd Commendation - No 4, Oleg Diatlov (Ukraine) 8/8/5p2/K2n1R2/2QNk1N1/4P1p1/6P1/1b6

1...B~ 2.Q(x)c2#
1...Bd3 2.Qf3#
Simple change-play 3x2, Black correction. Secondary Dombrovskis with a move 2.Sf6#.
Initially the problem was marked by 1st HM, but its final distinction is decreased in view of strong anticipation yacpdb/40559.
