NL the chess content is fantastic. Dont beat yourself up too much about your ELO and your recent games. Might sound obvious but I think you forget that your opponents dont have an audience and dont need to win while being entertaining for their viewers. I'd rather see you have some fun with the game rather than knocking out win after win in silent focus, if that means taking a hit on your score in the short term it might not be for the worst.
Also, it’s natural for any player to have big losing (and winning) streaks, it’s part of any game. If he just starts playing again, then he’ll just start winning again at some point.
That's how it is with Isaac as well, he has his streaks, but it's because he's got thousands of hours in the game, not because he denies every zany choice that hurts his chances.
35:20 Always gives me warm fuzzy feelings when Levy compliments NL. His general style tends to be a little stoic/serious, and he's so much better at the game than your average player that sometimes it can feel like he's above you. Then he gives you a compliment and it's impactful because it feels earned and like he genuinely means it. I love people like that. I only know Levy from NL's recent streams, but dang, you gotta appreciate his respect for NL, what a guy.
@@Jonjon13Jonjon13 That's what a good teacher (or Zelda dungeon puzzle) does, definitely! Make you use your brain, and then make you feel like a genius when you figure it out. I know if I was a 1500 level player and Levy complimented me like that, it'd make me feel good about myself and want to play more, which is the only way to improve!

I think back over the years and how you never gave up in achieving every goal you set your mind to in all the other games you played and eventually got there with a patience mindset. I'm still loving the chess content, it's the journey and not the destination.
I mean, if NL keeps dropping his ELO in 10 minutes chess means more coaching vidoes with Levy, is that really that bad?? For real tho, these coaching videos are so entertaining and educational whether you're a casual player or a competitive player.
I'm loving these lessons. As someone who's gotten back into chess in the past few months they are super-informative and it's great to see two levels of players discussing moves and options and ideas about the game.
@@ninjacell2999 Turns out the guy is a nazi, go figure. Tbh I think most people didnt even know the guy, I didn't, but I understand Twitch doesn't want that shit hurting their marketing.
@@darrenfleming7901 The better explanation is this. Gootecks made the PogChamp face 10 years ago, since then he's changed for the worse. He's desperately wanted to get away from being the face of PogChamp and twitch has wanted to get away from him because of the awful homophobic, racist and xenophobic things he's said. After he called for violence during the riots in the capital of the US this last tuesday it really broke the camel's back and twitch was forced to remove him. It was a generally agreed upon good decision and twitch is making a new PogChamp emote every 24 hours when eventually (likely in a week or two) they will decide on one.
I hope NL keeps in mind as other comments have said, majority of his opponents don't have an audience watching them. We're here for your games good or bad!
Your lessons with Levy are honestly my favourite content, please keep doing more. I was a chess noob a month ago, now I actually know what's happening (and can follow along)!
Hi Enel! I hope you remember that in any sport or skill, after a strong period of rampant growth, almost everybody hits a plateau where they feel like and even get a little bit worse. It's only after pushing through it with time and effort that someone can reach their next growth cycle.
The dichotomy of the comments section is wild sometimes. For Chess, the comments section has been mostly constructive and supportive, especially this one and the last few as well. I love to see people supporting and being kind to NL when he's been having a bit of a rough patch with a game, but I'd love to see that same energy with other games as well, such as Slashers keep, where he was backseated into oblivion and had an overall bad experience due to that. If you really like NL and want to keep seeing him flourish, bring this same energy to other series as well, and not just one you enjoy the most. Remember, NL is human and this is a job for him, may as well make it as fun for him to create the content as it is as fun for us to watch it. Keep up the positive guys!
sorry, but 'do the thing you specifically said you were going to do in this video, "use the chute to pay it forward", instead of yeeting it into the void'....look, I've seen ''backseat into oblivion' on slay the spire and other similar games, where the comment section has the benefit of scrubbing through or pausing for every move to come up with optimal plays. but 'use the chute' was not that. he got salty and needed to make room in his schedule anyways. It's fine, Malf does the slasher's keep content peeple need, NL's not gonna be mad about malf geeting some support.
@@Nowolf Not necessarily the point I was making, but alright. I feel NL had a good thing with Slashers Keep but with his constant backlog its hard to immediately see changes in his videos from what the commenters are just yelling about and being rude about in the comments. While it is nice that MALF plays Slashers keep, not everyone that watches NL watches MALF as well (I do, but this is just for the sake of the argument). It's just certain toxic groups that can destroy a creators enjoyment of the game and it's a shame to see it when a lot of those people stick up for him otherwise.
@@TheChocolateSailor19 maybe, but once again, I've seen issue of backlog come up. this was not a backlog issue. let's go back and watch NL's last two slasher's keep videos again, he himself has thoroughly and explicitly realized that progress in the game is all about using the chute. he fails to do so. Now, go down to that comment section, and eliminate all the comments that are about that singular and specific failure. Then tell me how much 'backseating' you can actually find. yeah, I've also heard he brief, salt-and-sarcasm filled mockery of the comments on an nlss. I just also remember what the comments actually were. Strange hill to die on, I know, but any other game or series, you're probably right. slasher's keep wasn't one of them. and honestly, it probably motivated people to look into malf a little, since he kept mentioning how he was getting advice from him.
love the more relaxed pace of the lesson vids. feel like it'd be cool to see you try out some 15min or more a side, have more time to puzzle things out. pog is dead, long live pog!
43:10 me I thought that way before I thought of the knight move and was wondering why they didn't talk about it because I thought isn't that just winning?
Ngl, pogged gourd def seemed like he was cheating. How do you screw up a rook + king checkmate and yet make all those good moves before it. The fact that was like his first game on that account also is sus.
He was strong... hopefully you come back to being the strongest 1500. 1:13:18 Was Bxa7 good there? Because you threaten a Rook, and if Rxa7 you can do Rxa7 and be up 3 points. Am I missing something with my unrated brain?
The bishop was defending the b2 pawn. Even worse, after Bxa7 Ra8 you have to play Bb6 in order to not lose a full piece. Then black can trade rooks first with Rxa5 Bxa5 and then play Rxb2.
When they missed forking the king and rook at 1:14:43 I reacted as if my favorite sports team lost a big game. I don't even think Levy realized it. I have a 450 rating in blitz and I love NL but I notice so many things he misses while watching these vids and it's painful.
@@okanyakin5119 OMG ok I'm not usually THAT bad I obviously know pins that was just a weird blind spot I'm actually pretty embarrassed though, thought about deleting the comment lol
@@topnug7626 See, with all due respect, you are 450 so you are not able to judge whether you are usually that bad, you probably "notice" a lot of things that aren't true and don't ever get corrected, if you did notice all these things you wouldn't be 450 ELO in the first place. but it's all cool, I reccomend doing a lot of puzzels, as a low elo that is the most important thing you can do, puzzels all day.
@@okanyakin5119 Yeah I know I'm not a good player and I miss simple things all the time in my own games but usually I dont miss a simple pin when watching a youtube video. And to be fair 450 is my blitz rating I'm around 700 rapid
