Chess has been having a resurgence in popularity this year so I have finally acquiesced to semi-popular demand and started to play a bit. First, let's hone our skills and get a little more warmed up and then let's conquer chess dot com one board gamer at a time.

About this game:
the horse moves like an L - Hry
The analysis after the game is a blessing. If this becomes a series, I hope it stays in.
I extremely agree!! I think most people watching this series will be chess fans anyway, and the analysis is some of the most interesting bits!
Love watching NL react to his own past moves! I definitely will be watching all of these episodes!
his reaction when he realised his blunder after the first game had me rolling lmao, i hadn't seen it until he did either
His laughter after finding out he blundered multiple times in the second match got me good aswell.
The game backseats so we don't have to
The analysis was my favorite part! And I agree with NL, if that tool was around when I did chess in High school I honestly would be slightly better than I am now
This kid just completely blundered his queen on F3, clearly his opponent was distracted by a zoom algebra lecture.
alegebra
u lucky i was in class
allegedly brah
We don't need to backseat when the computer does it for us
100% true. NL should continue to do the post-game analyses to mitigate backseaters.
Leaves more space for us to get pogged up!
LOL! Dude this is so true! AI backseating = best backseating!
Seeing the AI flame you with questions marks makes me want to start playing and buy the pro version
It's brilliant because the computer doesn't say "You messed up" and then give him nothing constructive-it'll specifically say, "This was the mistake, the best move you could've made here was this."
@@Mrthom1478 anyone who plays on chess dot com can get the analysis! It just limits you to one a day and less depth but it's still great for learning
That's GM Northernlion to you.
prophet?
We need a northernlion bot!

I'm going to completely rip off somebody else's comment from the other video because it was so good: The Egg Scrambit
@@Jindo1 lmfaoo
the black and white bars on the right hand interface are the times each player took to make the move.
is very useless then? I thought it was some sort of analysis, but that wouldn't really be fair
@@jvcmarc not sure. Might be an interesting thing to k is where you’re spending the most time in games and whether it’s warranted or not.
@@harryleigh982 I guess... but I'm a 700 so at that level it isn't what I'm the most worried about
@@jvcmarc so maybe it’s not aimed at you 🤔
@@harryleigh982 exactly
I swear to god this man knows all the theory, im so impressed .. i thought hes gonna be a sub 1000 pleb but hes gonna be 1500 in no time
This Is The Way
I have spoken
10:25 The post-game analysis is such a great addition to the content!
The mad man plays chess in dark mode, but has twitter in light mode
He picked up Duality
the duality of man
He mentioned in a podcast with Dan that he uses dark mode purely for viewers, but he himself prefers light mode

@@onorot the God answer
yo what they made Queens Gambit into a real game?
Movie-license games are usually garbage, but this one turned out pretty well.
@@CaptGlorypants its because its not a movie originally the game actually canonically follows the book. It was made by a really passionate new indie studio too rather then just licensing it out to a AAA publisher.
There's a tool out there for generating AI based on an individual players playstyle; I saw an article headline that said they managed to use it on the girl in the show! (doesn't simulate the drug addiction, but hey)
LMAOO I’m dead
Your opponent's last move was "best" because at that point the mate wasn't preventable, so any move was equal value to him. Really, the concede button was best move just to save time.
Ah that makes sense thanks. I was confused as well.
Ntm i also hadn't actually paid attention to the board to notice how strong nls position was
The opponent "Nani?!"-ed, while it was all over for him.
Any move wasn't equal value.
Mate wasn't preventable, but it's still missable, so the game wasn't necessarily over. The move still matters in case the opponent blunders, so the best move was determined based on such scenarios.
@@__Albin__ If there's a forced mate engine prefers moves which postpone the mate. If there is no difference in the number of moves, every move has the same weight.
I love the post-game analysis, because I'm not someone who plays a lot of chess (yet) and seeing why a specific move might be better than another is super helpful and fun
Honestly the analysis is so much better than i am that even when they explain it to me i'm like wat i don't get it.
@@assiaisindegyara4905 Congratulations, that means you're a human being
@@assiaisindegyara4905 the computer analysis is superb but you do have to bear in mind that sometimes it will flag a move as an inaccuracy because it just wants you to do something else first, or because, with perfect play, in 20 moves time the game will simplify down to some weird endgame where you are down a quarter of a pawn.
The computer can likely win from a position like that, hence it doesn't like your move that allows it, but no human on earth could play so perfectly.
@@fullfat8112 Yeah, the inaccuracies are usually not a huge deal unless you play at really high ratings. It's whenever you have any blunders that you need to check and see what went wrong because sometimes your opponent misses the punish and so you don't realize that one of your moves that seemed good would've led to you getting forced to lose your queen a couple moves down the line against a better player.
@@fullfat8112 the analysis always makes me feel bad. It's so mean.
Way to often it comes to a point where i make figure out my win start going for it. Do my big swing play it works, the look at the analysis just to see that it was a blunder.
I'm also terrible at chess, like i am not in any denial that it's right it just makes me sad. I also can never see what was wrong, i wish it could tell you what there options in a few turns were rather than just what the best response to my play was.
Commenting to increase engagement, crush their souls egg father.
More engagement!
There seems to be a leak... OF ENGAGEMENT OVERFLOW
Magnum Carlos needs to see this!
@@svenpoletka5236 lmao Magnum Carlos, that's amazing
@@JustAndrewIsFine You're the one that's amazing!
Some tips for operating the site -
In analysis, hit the "show lines" check box which will be right below the toolbar. It'll show you a line of about 10 moves where each side would be the computer making the best moves, showing either how you could've won or stomped in that position. It's interesting because sometimes, there's only one move in the position that wins for black or white while every other possible move is just losing.
Right click and hold across the board to draw arrows. Can also right click to highlight a square (shift right click makes green ones)
Those numbers next to each move during the game are the amount of seconds/minutes the player took to make the move (don't feel embarrassed I struggled to figure it out too)
Please don't stop these are so enjoyable
30 year old boomer astounded by chess analysis tools is surprisingly fun to watch
"30 year old boomer"
You use that word, but I'm not sure you know what it means.
@@szymonskrabanek5327 What does it mean?
@@otakuage9668 it comes from the expression "baby boomers" - people born just after the World War II during, well, a post-war baby boom. Currently, baby boomers are somewhere around 55-75 years old, so nowhere near 30.
If you look at the generation definitions, today's 30 year-olds are actually the oh-so-hated Millennials, and that includes 90's kids! They're literally 2 generations later.
So yeah, @Ben Conrad here is apparently a zoomer that doesn't know shit and likes to spew words that don't even make sense in this situation and should probably stick to Blender until he finds something nice to say. Doesn't take a boomer to have been taught simple manners, smh.

@@garveiveyiv2562 yeah blatant displays of ignorance tend to do that. Move along.
23:54 missed a tinted rook
underrated comment
This joke is fucking fantastic
He needs to pay attention
He's misses many things. But that's typical for his level.
Wdym?
The post- game analysis is really fascinating
97.3 accuracy, give him his GM status
tbf it doesnt mean anything against Rufus and Dufus
Well his opponent was playing rlly bad 97 accuracy is TOTALLY expected
Endless relief to see the analysis tool. I think I'd have popped a vessel holding back my ackshuyallys.
Upload again, friend xx
@Benjamin McCann behind this ez-hit keyboard, i can be as big a fish as I like
Please, let this be the second Isaac series with at least as much episode, this is pog beyond my gourd! And I dont even play chess!
Yes please
The fact he can still banter while playing chess just shows how massive his power level is
I was crying of laughter during the second analysis, I personally played chess like 5 times in my life but seeing all the !?s and ??s literally 5 movements into the game was hilarious.
My god please keep the series and DONT skip future analysis, I feel you're gonna get destroyed when you're higher on the ladder so these analysis are gonna help the series go on by learning from your mistakes. Honestly the level you're right now is mind-blowing to a noob like me so I can't wait to see you against the true 700IQ tryhards of chess
Before you explained it was mate in 4, something about going from just numbers to "that was so bad I will have to give you negative m points" got me laughing
Rocket League and Chess have been S-TIER games for the channel and I would whole heartedly welcome more.
I agree, It's the only two games I play atm
Spelunky 2 and chess for me
Love the analysis at the end of the match.
I really enjoy the step-by-step look through after the fact. I don't know shit about chess but seeing NL react to what constitutes a good move vs a blunder vs what he did is really fun
When you're browsing YT and your favorite egg posts
I would watch countless hours of this. Never stop
Also I'm absolutely here for NL gets into analysis, I wouldn't even mind if you spent more time on it!
I'm ready for the Egg's gambit
I really like the part where Ryan Gary-Letourneau blows up the blood bank and takes a bunch of I'm Drowsy pills.
I love the current format of having the game then the analysis afterwards. Let's us all improve and pog up together
I can't wait to backseat in game I played for 1 semester in 6th grade.
The best part is the ai does the backseating at a level way beyond any we could do.
@@Garnzlok
so just read from the AI easy
Let's Play - Chess - Episode 1 [Genesis
...I expect great things...
Thumbs up if you remember
The games themselves were good, the post game analysis made it better. I'm down for more egg chess.
What is this? A computer is taking our backseating job?
This is the perfect comment
no you very much backseat with the engine
I can say I speak for the entire community: WE LOVE THE ANALYSIS!
I am BEYOND pogged, Ryan Carlsen take my energy
Dude I have been waiting for the Chess arc for so long
Have been looking forward to this ever since you handed those 9-year-olds their juice boxes on Clubhouse games. Extreme pog energy here. And the post-game analysis is must-see TV.
I love the fact that when you make a blunder the game is like: ????????????????????????????????????
it's just like chat
They actually do sometimes award more question marks based on the situation and size of the blunder. In 2006 the at-the-time world champion missed an incredibly obvious checkmate against an AI in a tournament (this was when the best AI was still in the range of human skill) and immediately lost. He was awarded a ??????
what are you DOING??
What are you doing!
At 4:01 If they would have taken your knight you would have been fricked, what a blunder, pogs all around I just started getting into chess when you dropped the puzzle vids
he analyses that no need to backseat when he aknowledges it in the video.
@@maxybaer123 I need to drop my replies quick to farm the pogs while they're ripening, no disrespect but I can't afford to wait
DUDE I was thinking the same. He moves his queen to potentially trade, does nothing to protect his knight that is being challenged, and his opponent just moves the queen out of the way instead of taking the knight and checking NL's king in one move... I couldn't believe it. NL was very lucky lol
Big fan of the analysis board, thanks for all the pogged chess content.
I very much enjoyed this, in no small part because you don't need us to backseat game, you get all the genuine good tips directly from the AI grandmaster with no "will he read the comments?" delay.
This was incredible to watch! The game and especially the after-the-game analysis. Would love to see more!
NL: hmm this seems like a good move.
chess algorithm: what are you DOING?!
I love that we can all go through the games with NL, helps us all understand the game better. Keep up the POGGED content Egg!!
this is awesome, I would love to see this as a full series!
LOVED this and seeing the analysis would love to see you keep this up for a bit! If you enjoy it of course.
THIS IS THE CONTENT I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR!!!
No one:
Absolutely no one:
Backseaters: time to use a chess super computer to point out mistakes
It's not even that, sometimes it's weirdly easy to see blunders and mistakes from a third person perspective. I see things when I watch others play that I'll miss when I'm playing.
I’m so incredibly hyped for this!
The game analysis at the end is very cool and informative!
I’d like to see the analysis be a regular part of these videos.
I didn’t except to be this excited for chess videos, please continue this series! :)
I'm too ready for the themes of "missed a tinted rock" to return in the beautiful form of "missed a mate."
The only logical way tinted rock can morph into the chess context is in the form of tinted rook which would indicate a hanging rook
ummm i see mate in 6, nl, provided the opponent doesn't play well, can't believe you missed this
Watch NL Pog levels rise as he analyzes his own game.
Dude this series is incredible. Watched you play a lot of games and enjoyed them, but watching you play this is a whole new level. I think its the fact that you have the background love for it coming into it.
Please continue this! Have been very stressed for time so I have not been watching CZcams content as much, but this tickles me in places I didn't even know I had and I want more of it.
glad you've got premium going! this will probably make chess dot com like you and support you, alongside all tha "features"
I never imagined I'd be so pogged by analysis of analysis of himself. Can we go deeper?
i love this so much! i hope this stays as a series for a long while!
Pogged as frick, please continue. Honestly I don't follow any of your yt series anymore due to a lack of time but this is pulling me back!
Just so you know, the numbers next to the moves are just the amount of time the move took, nothing more.
viewer engagement comment engaged
Maintain your seats in the upright position
pog procedures commencing
this is super fun to watch honestly. hope you keep this series up for a little while
I’m so excited for this series, I really hope you continue playing it! As a huge fan of chess, I’ve been hoping you come back to it ever since I heard about your middle school chess career.
Don't even play chess, best series yet. Comment Engagement.

I absolutely loved the analysis at the end. I hope you keep playing chess, NL!
I would backseat if I could, but the POG seeping out of my eyes is blinding me. Good video
Funny how in the last analysis the computer went at some point "I have no idea what these two are thinking anymore..."
They've gone off the grid! they're operating at such a level that the computer can't even follow any more. This is the sort of strategical thinking we'll need against skynet.
@@TheInverseGentleman Chaos is you
Really liking the chess games and how you interact with the analysis. Love to see more!
Looking through the analysis at the end is a great move content wise because it basically gives you a whole section of the video to banter, where it was necessarily limited during the game, and it simultaneously gets in front of any turbo chess nerds who want to stroke their own ego by pointing out your blunders. Great content 10/10 would egg again.
6:55 you had a chance for a classy finish after bishop takes pawn takes queen takes pawn on g6 I do not see a way for black to stop the threat of Queen to h6 mate, he can also delay it ;)
The numbers aren't percents it's the time taken per move
If I didn't have such bad ladder anxiety, my praise addiction would be IN LOVE with that post game analysis
>was it a good move?
>no, it was best move
I really enjoyed this video, especially the analysis of the moves at the end! Keep it up egg
Didn’t u play online chess on the switch
yeah but that doesn’t use ELO
@@nopenoperson8964 what
Honestly, chess.com's algorithm, while usually pretty good, is horrible at "blunders". Sometimes while reviewing matches I've won, the way the algorithm plays out what it thinks the correct move would have been leads to mate against me in less than 5
I love watching the analysis! Please do more of that! Super super fun.
It’s nice to see someone entertaining and around my level play I hope this sticks around a while
Why people think chess is hard, just kill the king lmao
This is thoroughly enjoyable so far. Hope you keep this series for sometime. Thank you for the entertainment even if I don't understand or play chess lol.
I am very much enjoying this! Please continue the series!
This was genuinely amazing. I suck big time on chess but seeing that analysis after a game is just hitting the synapses in my brain just right
seeing you play chess on clubhouse games was the absolute best im so glad youre playing chess on the regular
Love the chess content NL, and your commentary on the analysis makes it even more pog
This is great, loving the analysis after matches too!
Goddamn did not know how entertaining chess analysis could be! Love it!
Please keep this up! The post game analysis is so cool!
Actually so excited for this, I've wanted this series for so long
The analysis is so good!! Please keep doing it
I absolutely NEED more of this. Please.
This is amazing content. The commentary does not suffer, and the analysis after is really fun!
This is such gold. Please continue this series!
Love this, hope we see more of it in the future!!
This is some really good content. I know that banter is hard but it is fun to see someone talk through what they are thinking. Keep up the great work NL!
These chess videos are a blessing brother. I got hooked when chess exploded on twitch over summer and was left hungry when everyone jumped ship. Ty
Love this, please keep this series going!
I love the idea of the chess analyzer saying “WHAT ARE YOU DOOOING” while watching NL’s games. Some really great vids so far!
Yooooo
the commentary on the analysis was the best part! Please do that after every game
This is great I hope you do more of these. It's nice seeing someone that's good but not a master play, I feel like I can relate it a lot more to my play.
