    USCF National Master here.
    Analysis:
    1. e4 Nc6
    Danny goes for an unusual defense with the Nimzowitsch.
    2. Nc3 Nf6
    3. a4
    Arin's first mistake, wasting a move pushing the pawn on the edge of the board.
    3. ...e5
    4. d3 Bb4
    This is the other problem with Arin's pawn push. Danny can now play Bb4 without having to worry about Arin contesting the bishop with the a-pawn.
    5. Qd2
    Arin's second mistake, blocking his own bishop and immobilizing his knight, which is now doubly pinned to both his queen and king. Danny should take advantage of this by playing d5, immediately threatening to win a piece and taking advantage of Arin's cluttered setup, but he instead goes wrong with...
    5. ...d6
    ...which is not a catastrophic blunder, but it is a bit too slow.
    6. f4
    Another error. Arin really needs to do something about that pin.
    6. ...Nd4
    Again, a bit too slow.
    7. Nf3 Nxf3+
    Danny makes an inaccurate move here, trading his better knight on d4 for Arin's worse knight on f3.
    8. gxf3 exf4
    9. a5
    A big mistake. This was Arin's chance to finish the trade of pawns and unpin his queen, but be instead wastes another move pushing his pawn on the edge of the board. Danny should play Nh5 here, defending the pawn that he's up by, but worried about Arin's a-pawn, he goes...
    9. ...b6
    ...giving Arin another chance. Rather than trading pawns and reclaiming the pawn he's down, however, Arin goes for...
    10. Ra4
    ...a move that does not contain a threat.
    10. ...bxa5
    11. Rg1
    Again, Arin should take the pawn and unpin his queen, but he again misses his chance. This time, Dan finds the best move and defends the pawn with...
    11. ...Nh5
    ...cementing a considerable advantage that then becomes a massive one when Arin plays...
    12. Rg5
    Dan takes the hanging rook and the game is effectively over.
    Overall, Arin is still improving. If he has a game where he's good about seeing undefended pieces and considering what Dan's trying to do, he can absolutely win. We're all rooting for you, buddy!

    • @resileaf9501
      @resileaf9501 Před 2 měsíci +80

      Arin's biggest problem is that he's always terrified of doing a bad move and expects every move he makes to be bad, so he falls into a spiral of decision paralysis followed by panicky moves.
      Also ADHD making it difficult to let a silence stand.

      Out of all the people I've witnessed on this planet we call home, I think Arin is the only one that has consistently tilted himself into a quivering pile of tearful despair over chess.
      And it's so incredibly funny that Dan is the consoling best friend when he is the one who's actively destroying him as he speaks xD

    Man, Arin not taking that pawn at 13:40 for several turns just killed me.
    That being said, Dan is not invincible by any means. I think his most vulnarable point is that he doesn't develop on board enough. Most of his heavy hitters just chill in the back, applying 0 pressure. If Arin can play with 100% of his concentration (which is hard for him, I know), and don't make blunders - he can win
    EDIT: Oh, and the end result of this is just perfect. Right after he said the thing

    Good, weirdass castle-less game. Next year, I suggest the recently released Checkmate Showdown. It's chess, but every capture between pieces is a 2D fighting game match! With factors like initiating, forks and reinforcement adding powerups on the relevant side. Because pawns just capture without a match, they are in some ways infinitely powerful. It's really interesting and strange, you can have pieces that you're good or bad at capturing with, and I think it would tip the balance some way back toward Arin.

    I think I’ve found a way to even the odds for Arin here - Chess Boxing. You play chess for a certain amount of time. One that time expires, you begin a one minute round of boxing. When the round ends, you return to chess.

    12:40 Ok, seriously, I'm hypnotized by the bit of singing Dan does here (before it turns into the usual hilarious Game Grumps singing nonsense). As an enthusiast of historical music (such as Bardcore) and foreign music (also Bardcore, but when it's sung in older variants of languages), this sounds so lovely and I can imagine like, a gentle song with how gentle Danny boy was singing.

  • @StarlightAnamnesis
    @StarlightAnamnesis Před 2 měsíci +1

    The moment Arin goes for the rabid King route, I can just imagine an animation where King Dan watches as a naked gremlin Arin with a crown goes for a shanking spree on his pawns and tried to go for his rook. Then Arin's bishop holds up two guns against the two pawns about to try to get to the edge for a promotion until it got eaten by the other rook. Dan is like, "There's only one now! Wtf are you all doing?!" And Arin is trying to stab him but there is a barrier preventing him for coming closer so he goes to try shanking another nearby pawn. Then when he got two Queens, Arin was all like: "Yes. Step on me, Queens." and they were like, "Hmm. How about no?" so they pushed for a Stalemate.

  • @alexquan1744
    @alexquan1744 Před 2 měsíci +2

    I feel like Arin is one more game away from having a really good game of chess, you know? Like, a real slugfest game that has moments of lengthy decision-making followed by rapid, back-and-forth moves by both Arin and Dan until Arin eventually *shatters his own mental* in _the final moves_ of the game. I can't wait for Arin to think he's gonna win, accidentally hand Dan the coup de grace, then shit an entire gorilla.
    He's just a few games away guys, don't worry, he'll get there.

    Dan 100% Stalemated on purpose to give Arin a little boost at the end, lol. After just mentioning wanting to avoid a stalemate, the easiest way to do that is to check the King. Instead, he moved to a spot that did not put the King in check and made it impossible for Arin to make another safe move.
