3:05 “well let’s take a listen on xqc stream and see what he’s talking about”
Xqc: *aLiEn nOiSeS
followed by awkward silence
I'm up a juicer dude
Holy sh*t I was going to comment exactly this word by word. I wouldn't use capitals on **alien noises** though
chari Muvilla great minds think alike lol
Right right exactly
Hikaru: I think Ludwig is being very serious right now.
Ludwig, lip syncing: *_Y M C A_*
36:00
Those few minutes were so chaotic with the copyright free music, YMCA, and Hans Zimmer’s Time all playing at once.
@@dangroll7766 "T.I.M.E."
It's so crazy how powerful those lyrics are with a serious orchestral instrumental behind them xD
The subject matter was always deceptively serious, but the actual singing has surprising power behind it as well when you get rid of the upbeat disco sounds.
T.I.M.E is as serious as it gets in ludwig’s terms
@@dangroll7766 whats the other instrumental ?
@Onyx hikarus timing is comedic, same with his comment in Fuslie's match, she dabs right when he says she's panicking lol!
I'm just enjoying seeing these master commentators squirm at the bad plays but try to stay professional
And hikaru’s brolationship with xqc
the ooooh’s and the ahhhh’s
I can hear the laughing in hikaru's head throughout the game.
It’s fantastic isn’t it? You know half the time they’re thinking “wtf was that?” 😂
I somehow made it through game 1, but these guys are really bad. I can't continue watching.
Botez: This would be a great move Hikaru: I don’t like this move
Time?

yep, pretty accurate assessment.
Savage Hikaru
At least it's better than Austin vs. Connor
I think what he means is . They dont have a specific plan.
“No mistakes just happy blunders” - Alexandra Botez (also Bob Ross)
Bob Ross playing chess
@@hamsnadwich6767 : Pity Yasser Seirawan wasn't a commentator on this match.
Sound like what Bob Ross would say
Noice !
I wasn't a mistake but a happy blunder
*Not mistakes, just happy gambits
Last time I was this early, xQc's game already over.
LOL why you do him dirty like that
Lmao
Fart of twitch Sadge
T H R O B B I N G
Savage lol
"I have a fork!!!"
Famous last words
That was so sad to see, but also so funny
that fork was shaped a little bit funny to me js
mango on a fork
Drinking game: take a shot every time Hikaru begins a sentence with ‘yeah’ or ‘right’
and an extra one if he follows it up with 'exactly'
Are you trying to die from alchohol poisoning?
looool xd
boy oh boy sounds good in theory
or when he repeats something in his sentence :P
Alexandra: That would be a great move
Hikaru: I don't like that move
Alexandra: I don't like that move
46:13 "I dont think the color makes any difference" -Nakamura ending racism
“And it was in this position that neither player knew what they were doing”
Could we ever convince Agadmator to do a terrible pogchamps game just for the memes? 😂😂😂
"I still think I would prefer to be white objectively"
racist!

I love Alex's reaction hahaha
Dude Hans is 17 lmao like ik most teens now have sex in high school anyway but tf is Lud saying he's a virgin, man's not even legal yet 😂
Ludwig absolutely roasting everyone at the end is gold.
17:15 out of context
LMAO
23:45 Hikaru almost killed me when he said that 😂
Ludwig be the kinda guy to wear a turtleneck sweater in June
43:45 lol look at him almost about to shed tears for what he thought was a brilliant move. What a flop hahaha
Fart of twitch baby
25:45 That's a proud Hikaru smile
If you put subtitles on, they will call xQc=

🤣 the reactions
I love how the announcers are like “if they’re not dumb they will move h...ope, no, they didn’t see it.” Or when they make good moves they say “Wow nice I can’t believe they saw that!”
Hikaru: I think right now Ludwig is very serious
Ludwig: *Y.M.C.A.*
Such an easy workaround if they just have an external voice call and selectively unmute the players instead of using their direct stream audio.
6:35 ludwig's cat enters the room
omg that last game was cursed
🤣
I wanted to stop watching
it's a 3 minute car crash, you cant look away from it
I fail to understand how one Canadian man can be such a 5head while at the same time being a complete pepega
I love the end of the first game where Hikaru is yelling checkmate and Alexandra is super surprised. Also Hikaru is holding some sort of stress ball
"ladies and gentlewon" 44:44
AGAGHAAGHAGA
28:32 GMXQC with the 90% accuracy
5:10 is Ludwig seriously listening to Claire De Lune while playing? 😂😂👌
Piece is a bop
I thought the same thing, I paused the video because I thought my music was playing over CZcams 😅
@@noinformationavailable4114 Same! Haha
I love Clair De Lune it is very calming and also very focusing
8:01 and 17:14 ok hikaru
Right? So insensitive...
Looool
And he says it so casually! Lmao
48:55 when batman chooses not to kill the joker
Let’s be honest we are used to watching GM chess players play great games and explain their decisions on the board - don’t know why people get annoyed at seeing noobs bum fight it out lol I think it’s quite entertaining
55:00 highlight of the stream
Xqc is like Japan, he got nuked by Moistcritical but now he's a chess superpower
@@Matthew-wl8tk they definitely are an economic superpower
@@Matthew-wl8tk was a superpower
ill give him 1 million if he can bet me
or rather was, the japanese economy is bordering a collapse rn :pensive:
There's no doubt xQc has come a long way since that Scholar's Mate loss in his first game. I envy that ability to improve so fast!
It helps that he was coached by grandmasters :(
we were this close to a rematch
@8Ightz the guy said he envies his ability to improve so much. And I said "it helps he was coached my grandmasters." Wjats hard to understand about that
25:16 is great when B&H get excited about the checkmate but still are not sure xQc sees it
21:45 isn't this a missed checkmate by white if he takes the pawn with his queen???
Check
24:28 no hikaru, draws do not exist with low rated players lol
49:11 -- I wouldn't come down too hard on Ludwig here because I (with a rating very close to his) didn't see it either... That ability to see not only the board in your head but to see FUTURE boards is SO effing hard for newbies! It's just not that easy to register that maybe the bishop can't go to f8 NOW, but it WILL be able to once the rook moves!
To be honest, this is very intense for me
Chess is a game with a lot of tension
A lot people call it a boring game
Yeah,those people that didnt know what truly chess is
The epic YMCA remix Ludwig was playing is called "T.I.M.E." by Neil Cicierega
Love your pfp.
Literal banger
Hans Zimmer and the village people should not work
What about the song at 5:45
Neil is legendary
23:45 pogchamps in a nutshell
I hope xqc knows that caterpillars are the ones who turn into butterflies, not worms
I love how all the videos are a hour long the critical and xqc was like 2 minutes
31:12 -- Chess is like grammar -- It's much easier to remember the "rules" (e.g. "Capture towards the center") than the exceptions.
In that case was just theory, but just top gms know how to use the true exceptions well. Is reaaaaally difficult.
55 minutes and 39 seconds of Hikaru dissing Ludwig
Of course Ludwig was nervous in the second match, he just lost a game of chess to the guy who mislabeled every creature in the animal kingdom.
“My coach is hans, and he’s a virgin” lmao
who is this hans guy
9:46 Think about it!
Ludwig played really really good, he was devastating
he did played really good
That missed mate was really cringe for me but after that all his moves were on point, so yea I agree he played good
48:49 yeah he really played that well
21:25 easy checkmate. Ludwig takes the pawn with his queen using his pawn to protect the queen. Why tf would he move his king
@@juancarloscorrea8134 Cause.... he was in check...
I LOVE Botez' reactions to these matches and the postgame interviews!
Xqc is like the main character of an anime facing all these challengers/bosses
35:58 serious business
Hikaru’s reactions are priceless.
36:40 3 songs playing at the same time
Ludwig singing

XQCs first on mic interaction is so perfect
Alex and Hikaru are such nice guys! I love watching them. I hope they will continue working together!
Yeah alex is a really cool guy
@@adityachaudhry7566 I concur
That final between moist and Ludwig gonna be hype
3 songs overlapping is earrape, pls fix
Sot I’m guessing they do it so they don’t get copyrighted
honestly i’d be fine if they just changed their anti-copyright song bc it hurts me lmao
@@jamespottala7852 U right u right I forgot the *_D M C A_*
@@jamespottala7852 yeah it's better than muting altogether
i like these pogchamp games, I saw people giving shit for em but honestly its good entertainment
23:45 Sums up the game
I remember watching this live, that 3rd round was so fucking hype
Last time I was this early xqc wasn't beaten by moistcritical
dude this was 3 hours ago, not early
13:13 Hikaru and I both wondering, wtf was that sound?
Ludwig versus Jesus... this will be a match for the ages
And in the consolation finals no less
Jesus hath won
If you could do commentary over ludwig vs penguinz0 that would be awesome.
7:50 Ludwig doesn't see the free knight and the song says "open your eyes"
how is that free ?
@@martinred6237 I think he's taking about tge move before white could have talken the black Knight on a6 with his bishop and black couldn't have taken it back with the pawn because by moving the bishop the rook attacked blacks queen. So he had to defend the queen.
48:55 he missed a checkmate on f7....
He knows it was throwing for content
That beat that keeps playing everytime they switch camera ruins my emursion
Seeing xqc winning is like watching an underdog
35:54
Hikaru: very very serious
Ludwig: y m c a
53:55 Ludwig roasting Alex is gold
Did Ludwig ever commentated for any of the pogchamp games? 54:15 can someone find the video please?
The thumping clapping sounds that you play while we are watching one of the players specific boards really ruins the video.
Agreed, I think it's for dmca
Ludwig has a video game villian vibe idk why ahh
Imagine an alternate universe where xqc is actually 3head at chess
Best part is the interview, make sure to check out 54:45 until the end. xD
The sound mixing in this video makes it almost unwatchable with sound. Maybe they need a sound controller.
the music is cuz dmca
25:18 Hold the ball guys
Alexandria is such a good announcer
Hikaru: I like everything XQC is doing here.
Hikaru: I like everything Ludwig is doing here.
Me: :S
Hi guys ... i need to find name of the music playing on 15:19 ludwig screen ... please.......🔘🔘🔘🔘🔘🔘🔘🔘🔘🔘🔘🔘🔘🔘
Me too! If tou got it please let me knkw
@@SuitsyWifax well nobody answers ...
xQs and Hikaru are like Naruto and Jiraya
The 3:0 game at the end was embarrassing for both players but they played really well otherwise.
Let's listen in to Ludwig aswell
Ludwig: *absolute silence*
Tfw when Hikaru is right and they're both clueless
Ludwig looks like a cast member in Twilight or Vampire Diaries xD
While watching I saw the bishop move and sadly he never do it as an amateur chess player I’d like to play in something like this I feel like the different strategy’s would Improve my skill by far.
I love hikarus comments on games its like he is just from another planet of chess.
13:18 Harry Potter and the Important Porpus
BROOOO the awkward silence around 3:20 was actually so funny
chess is bad at uploading these games on time. This is from last week lmao
Wait who won the consolation bracket
Ironie Fan moistcritical
31:20 was half-expecting them to join xcq's stream to just hear "TOWERED PAWNS"
35:35 nice little generation gap right there.
