    • @johnmarston5383
      @johnmarston5383 Před 3 lety +31

      Probably, make sure each one of the pieces you named is defended, so you can never blunder a fork. And because you have 2 more pieces, try pushing a pawn, as the opponent can't stop it with a queen

      Two rooks alone should be at least as good as a queen, if not better, but depends on the situation I guess.

    • @uwu.cynostic
      @uwu.cynostic Před 3 lety +4

      You gotta make sure your rooks are acting in sync ie. they are stacked up (battle ram) or at least focusing to capture/control the same square. Pawns and Bishops can help in restricting the Queen’s diagonal movement, with that in mind just think of a way to break into the opponents castle usually with a ram or pawn storm.

    Pokimane is going to be good. She's so calm. Even when she blundered her rook, she looked like a little bhuddist monk. It's kinda creepy how still she sits. She's improved more in 2 months than XQC has in 3 years. I think, if she gets the chess bug, and actually wants to grind, she may not be invited back next year, because she may be too highly rated by then.

      Exactly. Some content creators end up getting really fixated on trolls. And look at the likes to dislikes. He’s overwhelmingly loved by the community.
      Your outro should be thanking your fans and not even mentioning haters, it just feels wrong. Clearly the small amount of hate he gets outweighs the support he gets in his mind.
      I hope he can get over that soon because I don’t like him talking about haters every single video, I’d rather him focus on the positive. He’s absolutely crushing it right now and tons of people in the community are finding and loving his channel, I feel bad that he can’t just enjoy that

    when GMs like Ben FInegold who doesnt care even a little about his fanbase charges big money for training its considered okay and good for chess, but if people like Hikaru, Levy, Anna etc. do it for free and bring it to masses its not good for chess because its not gentleman enough...come on, its easy to see why...

    5:30 I think Qc1 is also a good move, instead of pinning to the queen, it is equivalent to an absolute pin because if the bishop moves it's mate in 1, and then you can hit it with Bd3 if black doesn't react immediately
