Piece-Drop Mate #1
Here's a second piece-drop mate, but with a twist.
Just like last time, you may only place the maximum number of pieces allowed on the board in a regular game of chess. You're trying to use the minimum amount of material needed(in points).
But this time, you must place pieces so that the position will lead to a mate next move, not an immediate mate.
Also, there are NO PROMOTIONS allowed.
Good luck! ;)
