Hey Levy, you’re probably not ever gonna see this, but I just wanna thank you for your effort and time that you put into teaching us, the viewers, chess. I appreciate every second of your video because, you don’t have any filter when you show up in your streams or videos, its just you showing your love for chess. And remember, you shouldn’t care about the haters, or trolls. I know they can be very discouraging, but as a representative of the people who love what you do, we are here to support you! So once again thanks a lot, you’ve been a huge help to me!
I saw it ❤️
Jokes on you he saw it L
L
He has a lot of filters and talks like a salesman half the time, you just get fooled. That said I do appreciate this series and the salesmanship is just a sad reality of having to live off twitch when you're a newyorker.
@@Acksn make me a list of all his filters
Opponent: He's taking his time on moving! Maybe I made a good move.
Levy: *scrolling through Instagram*
100% my first instinct would be "he's explaining to the stream why this was the worst move in all of chess rn"
Yo kanojo okarishimasu pfp poggers

@@Jvdzzz The kanojo thing? Actually not, I've read it 100 times and can't understand
Levy: London or Queens Gambit?

1. King takes pawn
Nah nah nah HYPER-ACCELEREATED BONG CLOUD
Bongcloud and 69. Two common things that are joked about that I would like to just disappear.

I love how levy treats his chat like the children they are
i mean not say they shouldn't be treated that way
@@BFDI_Leaf they act dumb in front of yt, so levy treats them that way lol
@@blidea9191 i agree after all
"CZcams is superior"
~levy in that one episode when twitch kept making the same joke which by the way almost caused a sub battle
@@BFDI_Leaf lmao
Facts lol
"And you suddenly get mated out of nowhere"
Me almost every game
This is what happens when it's me vs the 2000 and above bots
@@charleslol3613 Especially the Li bot...
@@Whydidyoudothis oh god not HER
when I was 7 we had a chessboard in class. I didn't know all the rules, just how to move pieces, and we were literally taking the king to win, checkmate wasn't a concept.
We used to play without checks as well
And the king was allowed to put himself into check
So there was no remise in that variant and instead it was just a loss for whoever had to move his king
I loved this version of chess! Being able to grab your piece and smacking the opponent’s king off the board.
It's called capture the king. I wish this variant was more common online!
@@liljackypaper It's not more popular because it's just regular chess for people who have no chess vision.
@@Kattalanonyt It's funny. Shut up.
"You're only losing when you lose"
Me who blundered a queen, a bishop, and a couple of pawns: Yep. Still winning.
go down in a blaze of glory my friend lol
Drawing?
Love how Levy hates twitch chat almost as much as I do.
yeah Twitch chat can get really obnoxious really fast
you know what hashinshin once said : " twitch chat isn't an enemy, twitch chat IS the enemy "
He doesn't hate it, you haven't seen Levy streaming on Twitch without uploading it on CZcams. He is a totally different person
the amount of creatures you find on twitch is insane

Thank you for this
The rare chess player villager. They get a chessboard and trade you pieces.
That's legit hilarious
BHAHAHAHA
Hi verified account
Levy : talks for 5 minutes btw each move
* still has enough time to play *
Me : Plays quick to save time
* loses in time *
:(
I just realized, levy rozman and gothamchess look the same
Mhm, just like how the Rock and Dwayne Johnson(Forgive my spelling)
Now that you mention it I haven't seen them both in the same room... curious
Oh Yeah actually
Who are you? So wise in the ways of science

"hehe I can fork"
Literally me hanging mate
I was looking for a minute straight to see why that pawn move was a good move and couldn't come up with anything.
"Why is my opponent thinking?" Levy-2021.
Anyone know the minute?
Because it was the only move and very obvious
It can be a sign of cheating
After hours of mistakes, and hours of watching your content. Studying how you play your opening and adapt to the opponent.....I finally had my most accurate game of 98.0. I've climbed 400 points in the last week alone thanks to you putting out all of these videos. Thank you very much. Also, I'm dying to catch the live streams. Followed and notifications on!!!
'You're only losing if you lose'
That reminds me of my high school basketball coach who wisely told us
'if we outscore them, we'll PROBABLY win'
Bro levy, how can i win at chess if my opponent sees this too. 🤔
Your opponent will also see his reply on your comment so it's useless.
@@kyrillos4169 The solution is for Levy to DM him
He makes it so interesting and easy to follow. Like, I watched this for an hour and a 20 minutes before I even realized the video was more than 20 or 30 minutes long. Really love his videos

@@MrZeplon lmao good catch
GM teaching IM would be so incredibly interesting. The closest I've seen to that is Danya's streamer lesson with Qiyu, which was insanely educational. Danya would probably be a good person to do such a lesson with, because he specifically does lessons with chess streamers. Please make it happen if you can!!
An IM playing a 900: "How strong is this opening?". LMAO all openings would be strong
lmao roast
Thnx levy my exams is going on and im addicted to your videos
"Files are like kids, you dont want them but you also dont want lose custody of them" the best line of the vid 💀💀 27:25
Files are like kids, keep your filthy bishops away from mine
There is one problem with that joke on the video. Because we really want open files.
5:55 "This just looks really natural" - IM Levy Rozman while putting a knight on the rim
I just stared watching this series and I’m so glad I did.
Just to see the love and the passion this videos have it’s absolutely amazing. Thanks for the incredible content! Keep up the amazing job.
Your commentary and banter are both very appropriate and entertaining. You’re doing incredible.
Man,this channel is a big blessing for all of us amateur players who want to improve .You are the only teacher who explains stuff in a fun and easy way...Hope your channel crosses a million mark!
It did
I feel like Levy is the human form of Levi from AoT the way he makes this great content
How?
Soldier with jetpack and blade is not close to a chess master
This doesn’t make any sense. Just because they have similar names doesn’t mean that they have a similar personality.
Okay dude
Wow. Over 2 years ago and you have 10 times as many subscribers as you talked about in the video. You deserve all of this Levy, we love and thank you!
Gotham, you are super entertaining - really enjoy these sessions
1:01:05 Gotham castles queenside-
Opponent.exe has stopped working
The person who kills the king first should win.
Isnt this... how the game is played?
@@user-od8vx2ei9g Technically the king is never captured (i.e. killed), the losing side just surrenders.
this would just add an extra move to the game
@@rewrittenbytes1616 it would make many illegal moves possible and thus 'fix' beginner otb confusions
These videos are superb. Thank you from an old English bloke trying to break the 1000 barrier! All the best mate.
Really enjoyed this. I love your use of a variety of openings but also solid, fundamental openings (and playing two I use often). My favorite is the 10 min clock and your emphasis on narrating your thought process as you analyze the position each move. Keep it up and I’ll keep thumbs upping. This is John bartholomew level of useful and may even eclipse his rating ladder series in instructional quality.
15:17 is a bit harsh. He played Be6 so it's not unreasonable to assume that he would have spotted Qb3
I think maybe the issue is playing the bishop move would imply the idea was there so the queen follow up should not then take time to come up with. Needing time after the bishop move makes it look like it was just desperation and then sniped the idea he never had
Streamers need to stop assuming people are sniping or consulting engines. Even beginners can occasionally see lines or single best moves. I know I’m not good by any means, but once in a while I can get 96% accuracy wins.
I like Levy and Hikaru, they’re great, but sometimes they can get paranoid with players getting outside help.
@@souledgar
There are still a lot of people who are stream sniping streamers and use engines.
That's why levy try to trick other player In to playing a bad move, just to confirm it.
It s hard enough to be good at something, but to be good at teaching it is a whole other talent. You re amazing! 🥰
People like you have put Chess back into the minds of youth. Im 20 years old and so many of my friends are just now getting into Chess. I have no doubt that you have played a major role in this revolution
love the series and also chat, gives extra life to the video
Mr Levy "Gothameister" Rozman, can you please make a video on how to spot / react to a bad move?
Hey future viewers, this was actually titled episode 5 before he changed it. Thought you should know...
Thank you very much!
Love these series. Thanks!
levy you are too good, you make lessons faster than I can learn from them and release such solid content
I'm also here for the straight up bad ass attitude mixed with the passion and humility of a master
I am really enjoying these daily uploads
"Granted the game was also over here." *shows beginning of game*
Savage
Dude you are seriously the best. I cannot wait for tournaments just so I can watch your game reviews. They are so thrilling the way you explain them and I really learn from your explanations
Gotham!!! Dude love your content man. I found you on youtube and you have really gotten me back into chess, I learned when I was kid with my grandpa a lot before I moved out of state. I'm usually not the type to reach out and fanboy but I really appreciate how much you put up with on stream to deliver the quality of content that you provide. Unfortunately, there is a lot of toxicity on the internet and I really respect how you handle it. You have earned a long-term fan and I am absolutely going to sub the next time I see you live on twitch. I plan on taking your classes and I hop you much success in this new year. You are making a difference and you should know that.
Love these climbs, levy is a good teacher, hope he wins the I'm not a gm tournament
Underrated Comment lol
I laughed out loud when you said of your third opponent: "Now he has lost the game, but he had already lost the game here" and for a moment the screen showed the board without a move played... Accurate (as it would be if I played Levy).
Dear Levy, I wanted to congratulate for your video’s. Very instructive but also fun and easy to follow. Well done !
This channel has blown up since this video came out. Great work dude! Really solid content.
"Hi CZcams, can you help me to find my socks?" Just a random twitch chat asked us, 6:53
I m finally 1250 after 1 year thanks man
You are one of the content creator that helped me reach there it was my aim last year
Achived yesterday thanks alot
Love this series. Helps me keep progressing while having fun
Fantasy Caro Kann will be my next opening to learn. Current ELO at 225. However, I'm learning daily and hope to reach your level of chess. Thank you for your videos. They are always entertaining and I'm happy to know you're the IM that I get to learn from.
Dude went from 367k to 825k subs in 4 months. Well deserved, Levy.
my step dad taught me how to play chess when I was 7, we would randomly play until I was about 11 stopped playing after that. I don't remember ever beating him. Randomly started playing again & i'm currently 1600. Call me self centered but I'm so happy I started again, this channel is partial thanks to that.
excited to see how far i can push
Just started playing chess and playing it with friends on my stream for fun, your videos are amazing & extremely helpful man. Thanks so much
You have helped me so much on my chess journey, I only started a month ago and am already at 1000 you’re a great teacher, keep it up
"You're only losing if you lose?"

Kids realize they have been in check the whole time? Yes, me and my mom definitely haven’t had the same conversations sometimes😅
Great series of videos Levy. Working my way through them and learning quite a bit. Really appreciate you putting out this content. ♟👍😎
50:00 could we get an analysis of the skibblety dooblety dorp opening?
30:06 "we don't even have to make another queen, we can just...."
PAWN him?
Happy Spring Levy, Thanks for your expertise and fun manner...you're the best.
this playlist soo good that within the span of 3-4 videos my rating is now 1300+ ...and for almost 6 months i was stuck at 1100 ..so thanks
This comment is now useless.
ikr gotham’s videos are actually so helpful and motivates me to play chess
When is he gonna change the title :>
@@verp4779 IDK
We dont need it but we want it!
Still glad it’s here
My opinion about hanging a king is that the game should not end with a checkmate. The best end would be the capture of the king.
Yeah I agree if you don’t see a check the opponent should be allowed to capture ur king I do that all the time and it is embarrassing and frustrating their is some kind of pawn break and all a sudden I can’t figure out why I can’t move my pieces and a queen or bishop sits on the other side of the board checking me if you manage to sneak a check on someone that way and it occasionally happens to me you should win it is hella aggravating in the middle of the game though when ur randomly in check and wondering if ur opponent planned it because it hasn’t even occurred to you that a break in the pawn structure would cause an annoying check in the middle of the game because you didn’t slide you king one square further out of danger.
Your videos are always so instructive and entertaining, thanks homie
Absolutely amazing! Thank you!
Thank you Levy for these videos, i just started playing chess and i'm learning and enjoying it a lot!
"Posted 1 min ago"
This has gotta be good
Watching this in the future. Crazy you mention your subscriber Count around 300k now you’re in the millions. Good job 🎉
Hey Gotham I started watching your content a few weeks ago and now I’m hooked. I really love how entertaining and educational you make chess. I’m really bad at chess (700) and I’m slowly starting to improve by utilizing some of your tips you give. For example I’m trying not to trade everything so quickly.. anyways, thanks so much for doing your thing and posting as frequently as you do.
P.S. I everyone here on Jupiter really loves your videos
Levy when the twitch chat isn’t IM level intelligence: 😮
The game against static_prim where chat called cheats (again) he had an accuracy of 75.8, while gotham had 94.9.
@Ad M I mean there is always the chance of course, but it's also a little ridiculous. Can't everytime suspect engine if there are any good moves by lower rated players. Should just only play 3 minute games to drastically lower the chance of engine use. Then leave 5 minutes + games for over-the-board play..
I know this comment is 3 years old but they were never caught as a cheater.
sus
I loved the comment at 01:16:33 where somebody said they hated their job but liked watching Levy’s stream during their shift.
That surprised noise at 1:15:11 is awesome! Seriously, superior work on your material, you are brilliant!
Omg, I can't believe that I watched the entire video. I was here to watch some piano :p

You will probably never see my comment 19:26 lol, but I love your content keep the good work!
Great learning plz continue the series
Levy makes the best content, these videos never actually dies, there are like 20 of these episodes and you can watch them all, all over again. Learn better doing it. Sick!
6:18 its a russian chess engine 🤣🤣
A lower rated player taking a few seconds on an "obvious" move may well just have a good chess coach - taught that player to check all the lines even when they're sure! It's a good habit when you're learning.
ikr? So many "obvious" moves that look straightforward but are just straight up blunders against someone more tactic savy than yourself.
This is one of the best chess channels out there. Cheers man
Very instructive chess! I enjoyed how you played.
“The traxxler is fundamentally unsound” hmmmm nope, if someone is playing the fried liver it’s perfectly sound and I don’t mind winning with it at all.
"Open files are like kids..."
That's a yikes
i absolutely love your videos man, keep doing what you're doing and being awesome, and never change :D
Keep it going , best chess series on YT. Cheers from Poland. Duda best player
I feel like all the "they are stream sniping" ruins the mood
