(chess)blaze

To blaze a trail means to make your way into unexplored territory so that others may follow. I don't see how you can do that in a chess game. To clear the way to the King would be to remove any obstacles in the path to the King, and that you can do.

Does the context help?
Having the skills to blaze a trail to the enemy King is important.

That's what I was thinking. The writer does not know what "blaze a trail" means.

blaze a trail idiom (Cambridge)

But here is a different definition:

does it mean 'pave a way towards.....'?
What about 'prepaare a way toward...'?

I do not see a different definition there. It's a figure of speech or it is literal. Literally, it means to mark trees with an axe as you go. Either way, you can't do it in a chess game. If you want to use "pave", I think it's better as, "pave the way to the King", but I don't think that's what he meant. Also, I don't think you can prepare a way toward anything. I think he meant something more lik

the first definition, the literary one, read make and mark a path. By prepare a way I meant make it ready for use.I don't know how you can cut a way

Cut a path, not cut a way, like with a machete.
