      It'd be cool but unfortunately it won't work as well, the highest rated "non-chess" streamers will have a huge advantage. The brain has more say on the strategy, for example if the brain says a piece there's at most two pieces to move. A duo with a low rated brain like XQC and hikaru will do really bad because X will make very obvious unavoidable blunders.

  • @1UcMeOnce1
    @1UcMeOnce1 3 роки тому +521

    Something very underrated about this format is how well you and your coach feel each other, the Brain has to think differently than usual. The Brain player doesn't suggest the piece that makes the best move always, if you deem the move unfindable for your Hand player, or if the risk they make a wrong move instead is too big to take. That doesn't take any credit away from Lud, because he still has to execute what Hess is cooking, but it's something worth appreciating. Hess wasn't the strongest Brain in the tournament, Ludwig wasn't the strongest Hand in the tournament, but they sure as hell were the strongest Hand and Brain in the tournament.

    I also accidentally won a chess tournament once. I was acting too aggressively and got my queen and a bishop in a REALLY bad position, essentially guaranteeing my loss, but then I was like "well, if I can't win, I may as well just delay the inevitable and put him in check at the cost of my queen". I moved my queen to take his pawn, then started to say "cheeeccccck..." before realizing that he couldn't take the queen because my bishop was in the same diagonal, and his rook couldn't take my queen because he castled, so it was on the other side of the king. I continued "...mate?", and that's how I turned a certain second place into a first XD

      @@MrYounis26 Nobody said 2 v 1. As someone stronger than Andrea, I believe I am well aware of the difference between myself and NL. The issue is that QT is much weaker. NL+Lud can play some good chess but overall QT is highly likely to mess it up and Andrea won't know how to play to her strengths and weaknesses.
