me too im forced to do one daily
Mee toooo
Lichess has unlimited puzzles
lichess is all you need
I played 200 puzzles on lichess
When you suck at the game, but you feel good because you got a puzzle before Levy finished explaining
but it's 170 elo
@@Daniel-bw1ds BUT I GOT IT BEFORE LEVY
Bro you think that he doesnt know the puzzle solution before he explained it,he is taking time not because he doesnt noticed that in that short period of time but actually to explain us like parents or elementary school teachers do it to teach small children
One thing that gets me on puzzles is when you need to escape a check with your king and you have like 5 possible squares to do it. Usually I choose the wrong one.
The key is to think of the position from your opponents perspective and then choose the move which offers least potent options.
But defensive chess is not easy.
@@emanuelrosenthal4271 Oh, nice tip. I'll take it into consideration, thanks. And yeah, I do have problem with defense, quite hard.
A good rule of thumb is to pick the square doesn't allow any follow-up checks. If there aren't any, that probably means picking the wrong one walks into a fork, skewer or mate, so look out of those tactics.
ı hate taht kind of puzzles :)
@@ultru3525 what's a skewer

"Never repeat moves because it means the puzzle is wrong."
Most of the time, yes. Although I did have a puzzle where the object was to force a draw by repetition in a dead lost position. Granted, it was a 2100 rated puzzle, so a beginner will not get that (which is who this video is geared towards). Just thought it was interesting because I thought "No way is the solution to repeat moves," but it turned out that that was correct.
yea lol once u get to the higher level puzzles theres like forced draws and knight promotions and castling
I'm 2300 and that's true
We have some nice pictures in this video
6:06 = excited Levy

New emotes maybe? Great video btw.
"how to solve 50 puzzles"
*Me wondering how to solve the rest of the 150k puzzles*
just do it three thousand times, ez
Levy, on behalf of my country, I am sorry for what Indonesian people has done to you and your closest. Believe me when I say, those people are not the right representative of my country, yet indeed they scream the loudest. We are better people and we are striving to be better everyday. Keep strong Levy, this is but a small inconvenience for a great future ahead of you and us all.
Yes
I've been living under a rock. Could you tell me what happened?
Mantabs
@@samprith5799 someidiot from indonesia cheated and indosenisian people are screaming at levy that the guy didnt cheat
@@solartea_ oh, maybe I’ve been living under a rock
When I see this: Feels inspired, goes do puzzles
After 5 minutes: Fails 10 puzzles in a row
Me that cant buy any membership
There's your problem right there. You took 5 minutes when you should've taken 50. lol
@@cryopex9976 lichess
As an 800 who struggles to get past the 10-12 puzzle, solving the 20’s with Levy in this video was awesome!
I feel like Levy could be a great kindergarten teacher
Without the raging tho
@@littleretroship6403 lol no that’s the best part
Gotham, I love your enthusiasm. Chess is a lively and vicious game. Your reactions to moves, even though you know them, are the exact reactions I have when I find something on the board.
Levy after .14 seconds of looking at puzzle: yeah no checks this time
Me after 14 minutes of looking at puzzle: *Rating -15*
Puzzle rush: 'exists'
Mouse slip: I'm about to end this man's whole career
I hate mouse slips
...except you have 3 strikes before you're out.
That's why i don't drag the pieces anymore. Clicking is way safer.
@@LeVezz Still can mouse slip.
This GothamChess guy reminds me of IM Levy Rozman
same
It's his brother
Woah I just realised that! They seem to have some kind of connection...
It's pronouced Gotham
maybe twins separated at birth?
This video was exactly what I needed. I love puzzles and this was a great walk through. Love to see more!
Thanks mate. I'm a beginner at chess and I was so happy to hear you say that it's about putting in the work to get better. I was starting to think that I was just stupid and couldn't ever be good at it.
I learned so much from this guy. He's beginner-friendly and a bubbly character too.
6:00 - slight froze moments. Not sure what happened
Same I thought it was my own device lmao
yeah please make more videos on puzzle solving i love them. also I really like your videos that you play live, i think it teaches us more about how to analyze the board and how to think when youre actually in a game and under pressure. keep it up!!
Watching this genuinely raised my puzzle rush score from around 20 to 30, awesome video!
"king run is cool, but checkmate is cooler" lmao
hello zombie tsunami
I used to love that game
This "checks, captures, attacks" thing and doing puzzles got me from 900 rapid to 1200
*DANGER.* *LEVELS.*
I am hoping the same for me as well.
This has been very instructive and I appreciate it very much. Hard to follow all the arrows at some points, but still enjoyable.
Thanks for all your content, it helped me improve a lot. I just tried a puzzle rush yesterday and did 45! My best ever score ever, and highest puzzle difficulty I solved!
“King run might look cooler, but mate is much cooler.”
That feeling when you get a puzzle right and Levy doesn’t understand it...
And then he explains why you’re wrong.
I will say that puzzles have helped me tremendously. Plus I love them. Levy, you are the man! Best chess content creator on the planet. Live long and prosper!
Keep up the great content Levy! Big fan of your work! Much love.
Hello Levy, I remember that when I watched this video I was 900 rated and found these puzzles very tough to solve. Now I am 1600 by watching all your videos on a daily basis and not missing a single one of the videos, I can solve all the 50 puzzles. Thank you for improving my chess.
btw 21:55 if king h1 then rook anywhere on the 2nd rank mate
isn't queen f7 mate for white then?
@@theepicebin5509 No, if Rg2+ Kh1, then Bishop is pointed at King, so Ra2/Rb2/Rc2/Rd2/Re2 is a discovered check by the Bishop for checkmate. White doesn't get a chance to play Q×Nf7.
Hey Levi, just want to say you are doing amazing! Blowing out videos at a faster pace than any youtuber I've seen (I watch a lot of them) and they are all pretty nicely done, informative and enjoyable. But Levi, just say something about the accident you had. Just make a short 5 minute video and explain the situation. Then at the end, say sorry for what you feel you need to say sorry for and move on. Ignoring it doesn't really help, and explaining it will calm a lot of people down. No one should be mad at you, we all make mistakes, and this was a very understandable one. (Also disabling the like to dislike just makes people more interested in learning what's wrong) that's just my opinion though, definitely don't need to act on it if it's not something you are comfortable with. Good luck Levi! You are doing amazing! You'll reach 1 mil soon, I know it.
Awesome vid! I've just started watching/ learning chess and your content is my go to.
Every time I watch one of your videos I get a better understanding of chess and I use these tactics immediately and I see results on my Elo almost immediately👍
Hope you’re doing better levy with all the crazy stuff going on
What actually happened? I've never found out
@@mos2903 Look at the latest community post on the Channel
@@fxshlein Thanks
@@fxshlein idk what he's talking about. Do you know what's going on?
Hope so too. Hang on there and dont let hate win.
And Levy is the guy who would say "You'll need 50 puzzles, of course"
czcams.com/video/BC6DPDTYoJI/video.html
You are the guy who has the top comment in the previous video right?
50 puzzles an hour, 10 hours a day, if you want to improve.
(50 puzzles solved in a row)
@@noyew2325 no
@@dwaynekeenum1916 that right there is a 200 ELO attitude
yes, please do make more puzzle solving video's! it really helps how to think. i started playing chess like 4 months ago and started doing puzzles like 2 months ago and sometimes i get stuck. just got at rating 1509 this morning.
6:01 look at levy’s cam enjoy
When you’re so early there’s no pinned hate comment
When you're so early there's no reply to the top comment
When you're so early you'll read "when your so early comment"😂😂
Lol
@@whatisredstone8006 Wow if you think about it the top comment does not exist
still none
I felt like the first 35 were unusually easy (and I was pausing it and playing them). But the ones in the forties were quite difficult. Still wow those early ones are usually tougher.
This is exactly the video I've been wanting. Thanks Levy!
Thank you for all you do Levy. You have all my support
If it wasn't for Hikaru, we wouldn't even know puzzles go up that high.
Ehh, he was an IM before Hikaru
hikaru is nowhere near the 200+ record
Hikaru is no where even close to the record lol. he has about 1/4 of the score of the actual good players
“Trust me, checkmate is cooler.” Lol Levy you’re the best
your advice on stream literally got me from being stuck at around 1100 puzzle rating to jumping up to 1500 in a week! Like some the ideas seem so obvious but like hearing it just made things click!
At first I was just stunned at how fast you can solve some of those puzzels but then I realized that by now I can solve 25*25 Hard Hashi puzzels (not chess related) in less then 2 min and that those once took me like 10 to 15 min.
Practice really helps.
Omg gotham you do magic! Right after watching your video y went to play a match( im an 800) and got 92 accuracy on a 32 move game
Thank you so much for this! I've been stuck around 2200 on lichess puzzles and it was nice to know it's my patience/depth of analysis that's an issue and not something more fundamental with my method.
17:03. Both sides are using a 'capture with threat' motif. One side trades off his attacked peice ( kind of a desperado move ), and then makes good on his original threat.
thank you @gothamchess got past my previous record in these puzzles in one try just by doing that check list! super helpful keep up the videos!
i'm really impressed that there's no pinned comment of an indonesian hating levy
Just wait
the fact that levy got one wrong proves he's still just a human and not a bot unlik- nevermind
This was super helpful! Thanks so much Levy!
This kind of content I think is very instructive, please make more of this type.

"King run might be cool, but trust me, checkmate is cooler"
Yes levy, checkmate is indeed cooler than no checkmate
But en passant is coolest
@@BananaWasTaken True, but an en passant checkmate is cooler
We need another puzzle video! Very helpful
Thanks for the good content Levy, hope everything going on with you gets better. Much love from Moldova.
Instructions unclear, solved 49
I didn't understand why I should do puzzles until I played a friend, another was looking at the engine analysis and couldn't stop laughing at the Baka Mitai we were playing after we missed so many mates
@11:46 Thanks so much for those profound words of encouragement, Levy.
Levy you are amazing thank you for all you are doing!
For all the people making jokes about not having a membership, on chess.com puzzle rush there is an option called survival where you can do unlimited puzzles for free until you do 3 puzzles wrong.
It’s not unlimited, you only get it once a day
@@Untoldanimations go for lichess then it is wayyyy better
@@Untoldanimations Its unlimited if you don't get puzzles wrong.
@@namansharma332 If you don't get puzzles wrong, you also don't need puzzles training lol
Can I get pinned, or do I have to comment a hate message for that?
Btw, you r great levy.... Learnt a lot
I think i've seen Puzzle no.46 in a Dubov game if i remember correctly, but i am not sure if it is the exact same one. But Dubov definitely walked his king up to his opponent's King avoiding perpetuals and finally delivering a checkmate.
Great video as always Levy
Just letting you know we support you Levy!
Love u levy
Watching this video, makes me want to do puzzle rush kk
It looks so easy when explaining the moves
Right after you learn the basic piece movement and rules this should be the next video! Forget openings and strategy, puzzles for dayzzz
Exactly man experience is the greatest teacher blindly studying opening and strategies leads to nowhere for a begginer. Its better to try everything and learn from your opponents at first then you seriously learn one opening you like in my case for quicker games like 3 min blits or bullet which saves you bunch of time of thinking while simultaneously doing puzzles youre never gonna hit a wall if you play a lot and do puzzles.
Watch this, get inspired and go play some puzzle rush. Don't even reach level 20...
*Feelsbadman*
"Don't do puzzle like you're in a casino" okay, noted.
underrated comment
Very insightful! Thanks for the videos.
35:20, I would rename the 'boomerang' to the 'slingshot' or maybe 'arrow', has you have to pull the piece back to fire it forward. You throw a boomerang forward and it comes back to you, not the other way around
I swear you look exactly like the CZcamsr “Doctor Mike”
Wait a second
HOLY HE ACTUALLY DOES
If you remove the beard he actually does
Btw yes i was a doctor mike sub
“What is with all these random promotions?”
It’s got to be the engine not forcing a check with queens, hoping our feeble human minds will ignore their rooks and push something else, blundering into letting them keep their new material. My god those things think so incredibly different than we do.
It's probably just easier for the engine to calculate a knight or bishop or rook rather than a queen
If it doesn't matter what piece you promote to, a human will normally default to queen, but a computer won't necessarily
this video (and piece of advice in the end) made me play so much better. I don't get 100% every day, any day actually, but out of 24 i get about half, sometimes more, but i do it on the bus or the toilet so i think is good. I'll keep working
Just smashed my best of 32 with a score of 40. Thanks Levy!

Hey Levy! I have got to say. I suck at chess.. no doubt about it. But I have interest here and there and it really takes my mind off things and helps me get through the day sometimes. Just wanna say that a lot of it is thanks to you. Thanks for being such a great content creator and I really hope you don't stop anytime soon. Thanks for influencing me and so many others to get better and just making super entertaining videos. Keep up the amazing work.. now I'll actually press play, knowing it'll be awesome :)
8:08 Puzzle 14 shows how the true second-order move is a checkmate threat, not a capture. Hence, players should look for checks, checkmate threats, captures, and then attacks. Also, pawn promotion should be considered like a capture because it results in a change in material.
