      Goes to show how much a player is affected when he/she knows who they are playing. Hans was pissing his pants all the way through as he knew if he messed up, the meme community won't let it go while Levy was composed all the way as he did not knew who he was playing. Goes to show how much mental toughness is required at the highest level, Hans is not there with the best yet.

    Bro is going through the whole main character arc:
    1- Tries his hardest to achieve an objective and gets better and better at it. However every time he fells short and the distance between his dream and reality ever seems larger by the day.
    2- Tired and frustrated he leaves the scene to lurk in the shadows. Now he has become ordinary, your average guy you see on the average street. He may have mastered his craft but needs to master his mind.
    3- Comes out from his slumber and destroys every established side character. This, is the start of his redemption arc.
    4- SACRIFICE THE ROOK B1!

    I just wanted to say that I recently got interested into chess and I really wanted to learn it. But the tutorial videos that I saw was so confusing that I thought chess was not for me...but then I saw your video " how to play chess for ultimate beginners " which helped me a lot. Now I am watching your videos one by one and I hope one day I will also become an expert.
    You are an excellent teacher...and I just wanted to express my gratitude...
    Thank-you so much ❤

    I love how Hans was melting down about this video coming, but the video was actually very respectful and generous to Hans. Things like "hyping up his audience" for laughing at Levy and his abilities, excusing Hans' mistakes, just everything Hans' stream wasn't. I'm sure Hans wasn't actually as mean spirited as the stream across, the compliments of Levy finding positions disguised to keep Hans' bad boy persona, but it's still a pretty amazing contrast of what Hans was expecting and what Levy actually made.

  • @GiganticPawUnit
    @GiganticPawUnit 2 дні тому +890

    It's fascinating to see Hans's whole "Levy, you're supposed to choke! This is not Levy Rozman!" reaction. He's thrown off because he expects Levy to make certain mistakes based on his past performance, while Levy's recent training (and the effects of hiding his opponents' identity) have mitigated Levy's weaknesses in terms of his reactions and stress levels. And like Hans said after the game, he played worse because he thought about how embarrassing it would be to lose to Levy . It really shows the importance of temperament and mental game in chess, how it can be as important as knowledge, calculation, reaction time, etc.

      @@victorkao1472 I mean, being put on a GothamChess Thumbnail is a good thing. Even when losing, Gotham does a good job of showcasing people's skill and giving props to this. In this video, Gotham is highlighting how good Han is, and the fact that it's blitz so a single win doesn't mean much. Now, the UA-camrs that are showing Hans whining like a baby the entire game and constantly insulting Levy? Those are the videos you don't want to be on.
      Being in a Levy video is almost always a good thing and gives a big boost to people's renown. It's just up to the person to make it so people don't hate them, and Hans failed miserably at being a decent person.

    I’m a new and learning chess enjoyer. I found Levy like everyone else through chess tutorials and I have to say I am so glad I did. You make this game so fun and exciting and although I am new to this world, I am rooting for you so hard on your journey to GM. So exciting learning the game as well as the surrounding drama and players.

    I love this series, it's a small insight into a level of chess that I'm almost certain never to get to (along with the gentle mocking for my lack of knowledge) but aside from that the psychological side of everything and watching Levy slowly gain in confidence and self belief is extremely relatable for everyone I think. Well done!

      The problem is that it probably focuses on what to do on the board. Levy and Niemann both know what to do on the board, it's the nerves that are sometimes the issue. Good shade, sure, but not the perfect move.

    No this is by far the best episode you uploaded. I don’t even need to watch to know it, since I saw other recaps.
    Not knowing your opponent and winning like this proves you can earn your gm status if you get over your mind games you play on yourself. Once you are to gm (which feels inevitable at this point) I’d love to get a whole video laser focused on thoughts on how you changed from a sports psychology perspective. They should be scared of you, you don’t even know who they are 😂
    You really deserve the smile at the end, plus who doesn’t love seeing entitled Hans so angry and defeated. Cheering for you is more exciting than watching top games right now. I hope you throw yourself a celebration of some sort this seems like a pivotal moment for you.
