oh my, this is such a great pairing for a collab. Nice job you 2! Chess, the cozy vibes with the fireplace background and your perfectly relaxing softspoken narration is just toooo good
Thank you so much!! You know... There are some interesting mathematical ideas and problems related to chess... If only some brilliant non-caffeinated ASMRtist would consider making my life complete and do an ASMR Chess Math video? One can only dream lol. So happy to see you here decaf!
You are doing something different with your voice here that is AWESOME 👍🏻 Slower? Softer? I dunno, but super tingles. Good game, too! I always learn something about how to play when I watch your videos, so thanks again!
Yea I can't exactly explain what it is, but I definetely used my voice differently from how I normally do ASMR - at least during the first game. I'm glad you like it - I'll try and explore it more in future videos.
@@ASMRChess I feel like your voice is a bit deeper in the first game which also results in a slightly more vibrating sound. How is talking like that for your voice? Because it also sounds like that may be a bit more staining on your voice if you have to force it
@@Lars_Maassen I wouldn't be able to force it for very long I think. In order to do the voice I need to be very relaxed and have saved my voice during the day. It feels quite natural once I hit it, but it requires more editing since my voice has a tendency to break occasionally when I'm in the really low register.
ASMR Chess has the most incredible voice for ASMR, I also find it incredible how he can turn content such as chess into informative tutorials / tips and tricks, chess is very hard to make content on and this man has aced it.
Love these videos. Started playing chess as a kid but just recently started to actually learn the different play styles and strategies of the game. Love seeing and learning from how this guy plays. 🙏
I couldn’t because he could defend with Rb1 and now my knight is under attack and if I take the bishop he could recapture with the rook. All-in-all, I don’t really win anything apart from eliminating that pesky bishop!!
I'll add something to Dido's instructive explanation. By trading the knight for the bishop in the way you describe you would trade a piece that has moved 5 times for a piece that has moved 0 times. You have effectively wasted 5 moves doing nothing which is a disadvantage.
Thank you for being the only way I can sleep while recovering from surgery! I respect you very much, and I will become a patron as soon as I get a job because there is no UA-camr that is more deserving.
Your videos are so amazing man, when I started watching you I was 700 rated but you have helped me reach 1400 and learn so much about the game. Ps, I love the production style of the OTB vids, keep them coming😉
I actually follow both these guys lol how weird, followed asmr chess for long time and this guys smart and a top chess player , sorry to my fellow scot but I can see u getting ass whipped here 😂
I don't have a set amount. I usually just hangout in the discord and ask if any patrons wanna play if I'm doing a video. I used to have a system where you would be guaranteed to play me at a certain pledge but I found that it stressed me out if I didn't have the time and I was afraid to let anyone down you know.
8:58 If the queen takes on D4 your queen could take on F3 causing an enormous headache for the king (you're queen isn't really pinned yet because he has no dark-squared bishop)
If you're referencing goodnight moon there you have good taste in asmr she has wonderful content :D as always I love the vids and I hope they keep on coming :)
this is a Sennheiser MKH60. For the videos with a physical board I either use a Neumann TLM 49 or a Schoeps CMIT5U for the voice and a stereo pair of Sennheiser MKH50 for the board sounds (tapping, clacking of pieces etc).
New player here. Are resigns frowned upon? Like, what’s the community take on resigning? When I get a resign, I feel a bit of pain for not being able to see my plan executed or get the checkmate etc.
Lovely video! I have a question pertaining to strategy. I`ve seen many games in this channel, many of which involve the enemy knight pinning our knight (such as at 2:36 in this game). Why is it that Pawn to H6 is never used as a counter? I assume that it's because we want to maintain the defensive integrity of the pawn structure, but I'm a bit of a chess newbie, so I'm not really sure. Thanks again for the awesome video!
it all depends on the circumstances surrounding the pin. In the position you mention pawn to h6 would not be ideal, since white can capture the knight and mess up the pawn structure. I instead played e6 so that I could recapture with the queen and keep the structure uncompromised. In other positions you want to kick the bishop, like I did at 07:06
@@ASMRChess Ah ok: I'll keep an eye out for that. Thanks for the help. This channel has really motivated me to get back into chess by the way, so thanks for all the work you've put into it.
Just curious, how would you rate yourself (or how have you been rated on a profile you play more)? You said 1300 is wildly inaccurate so I’m interested
In that first game (around 27 minutes in) surely it would've made more sense to play Bishop h3 and then bring the Queen to f3? Seems like he's just wasting a turn doing it the way he did
No that doesn't work. The bishop needs to go to f3 because that square can be defended by other pieces. If you go Bishop h3 white just plays Re3 covering f3 and there is no mate and most of black's advantage will have disappeared.
@@samhargrave5901 no problem my friend. Usually when something seems 'obvious' in chess there is more to it. Now in this video it is just me and Dido playing and so there will be more mistakes. However I also get a lot of comments with "why didn't Capablanca/other legendary super chess grand master just play this or that move? It was clearly better" and invariably there is some small wrinkle in the position so that it doesn't work. Of course even the greatest make mistakes occasionally - but if you find something obvious - chances are it's wrong. Anyways I'm happy to answer comments like this when they are phrased politely like you did. Have a nice day.
Such a fun video to make, thank you for having me man! GG again and I cannot wait to get my revenge 😄

At 9:23 couldn't dido play knight b6 to win the bishop? I am not high rated by any means, could this lead to something bad for white?

Hey I gotta say, fire background!
I refreshed your videos at a perfect time and this just popped up, very pleasant surprise just in time for some sleep :)
Very nice video. I liked the pacing
at 7:15 white could have played bishop c4, then if pawn takes, knight can move to e4, forking the bishop and queen
yes and black then plays queen to e6, getting out of the fork and defending the bishop. Black then has a winning position.
@@ASMRChess a sneaky little line if I do say so
Listening to a fireplace during summer is a real trial =w=;
