I love how Gotham is totally confused about life at the low end of scale. No one chats, uncalled for draw offers, abandonments... Welcome to our world.
Even at 700-ish elo, if i press Allow chat, the vast majority of the time it's either someone making an insult/gloating, cuz they're winning cuz they think i'm dumb. or raging cuz they're losing cuz they think i'm dumb/lucky. I stopped bothering to click allow chat.

It's really nice how you don't see at 23:40 that low elo is also sometimes just mean. Your opponent was in a bad position and though he was going to loose, so he offers you a draw as a deal to not waste your time until he gets kick for not playing.

I see a lot of videos of people playing against 100 elo where they either use the 100 rated player as an opponent to do challenges against or just to mock them. I greatly appreciate that Levy is using this situation to not only avoid beating them, but also to educate us. Thank you very much.
Yes, I really liked this video. Unlike Hikaru doing speedruns and making 7 queens, Levy is trying to cheer the newbie’s, so they will be motivated to keep playing. That’s what I like about Levy
Imagine being 100 elo, losing a game to GothamChess, going to GothamChess' youtube channel (without knowing its him) to get better and running into this video.
I know that everyones joking but jts genuninely incredibly wholesome to see gothams genuine joy to see beginners being even somewhat good at chess and jjst getting excited tjat someones playing chess, its so wholesome at the "wow! He saw the rook move thags amazing" i love it
Levy: For newbies, nine times out of ten moving a piece backwards isn't a good move Levy a few mins later: BACKWARDS KNIGHT MOVE FORK! BACKWARDS KNIGHT MOVE FORK!
When an 1800 misses an obvious move you can be upset, when a 100 misses an obvious move they're just new, I can get how one is more frustrating than the other.
And here at 24:27, we see Levy’s next video idea. Put a 100 rated player in a check with only one legal out. Will they find it before the clock kills them?
Jaja yeah they lost focus after the first mistake. I am only at 800, but I realized a big part of my push from 500 to 800 was overcoming frustration over a blunder and keep going.
This video was really fun to watch! Please more of this! Also it's great to see that an International Master doesn't scoff at lower rated players and actually seems proud of them when they make a move that's good for the low elo level but standard if not an inaccuracy for their own level.
Is it really that amazing that someone who has devoted years of study and practice to a certain thing wouldn't scoff at someone else who only started said thing 3 days ago for being bad?
@@soxnation1000 No, it's just that not everyone started 3 days ago, and I don't even necessarily mean this video, but in general. I've been playing chess for years but I'm still stuck at 700-800.

Really interesting to see inside the mind of a certain rating. It would be a neat series I think if you made a bunch of videos of different elo levels and we could look for patterns at specific elos, like maybe there is a really prevalent mistake made at 1300 specifically, for example.
I think it's awesome that he plays against beginners, intermediate and advanced players, and shows how to improve your game. He also has a great sense of humor and makes chess fun and exciting. I always learn something new from his videos and I can't wait to see more!
Levy the lion has sheared his mane to reveal a wise, kind, and strong teacher. Such a joy to see the big dog playing with the pups. Happy Father's Day!
100 elo is a wide range of people. It can be anywhere from people who don't know anything other than 1 e4, to people who play 90% GM moves, but always blunder a major piece and then just lose all the time.
As a bad player I can argue that at this level the horse is worth much more than the bishop, because the bishop is too predictable and the horse can appear on random squares.
Levy treats very low players like Gordon Ramsey treats children. He's so gentle
*Levy sacks his piece*
*Opponent takes*
Levy: “Oohh GREAT MOVE!”
