Still not mate in 2:
Rd2 - Qxe4
Rh2 - Qh4
Rxh4#

Oh! Indeed
cxd2
If pawn takes the rook on d2, then the other rook goes to h3 for mate
Rxc3, then either Rh3 or Rxd8, depending on Black's next move.
Qa1+ refutes for 2 moves
aw man
I could find only Re3, but I'm unsure. Anyway, It is a mate in 3, not 2
Not sure how either rook would reach e3?
Lol
I was thinking Re7!
I was distracted cause I'm on the road
Re7 is interesting, but Bxe7 Rxa8 Bd/f8 is not mate in 2 like you said
Yes, I know. At least 3 moves
I said that at the original comment
Yeah I just saw, just edited my own
RxA8
This leads to a stalemate
Dayum... Thanks!
