White lives like this:

11 O17
12 takes ko
13 M19
14 L16
15 takes ko
16 ( no ko threat )

I disagree with your move 13... white wouldn:t play m19, they would play p17 to protect the 4 stones in atari...

As I understand the rules here, the goal is to kill all of the white stones. If the majority get away, then the line is not a solution.

@ Jordus:

Even if your sequence would work for Black, you might have only shown that one :w2:

(in answer to one :b1:

) does not bring White to life.

There are other :w2:

remaining for White. If none of them brings White to life, this one :b1:

is the first move of the solution.
