You are right.
@@GothamChess holy, you read comments on video this old?
@@GothamChess LMFAOOO
bruh
pin of late shame!
Levy out here solving the YT algo. Good on ya, young man!
Put Magnus in the title. EZ Clap
This is me and because of it, I'm playing chess again for the first time in years. Quality content.
How to change bot
@Chris P learn to read lol
Why are people using this embarrassment of a site when lichess exists
That’s exactly how I would have played it
Same, every single move that Magnus guy played was "meh"

In this game Magnus had a 99.4 accuracy. And if you delete the last move its an 99.6 accuracy (99.7 is the highest possible accuracy). So in this game he played like the best computer in the world for 46 moves.
Why is 99.7% the highest possible?
@@opticpower7542 that's because nobody is perfect, and you can't just sight read people's moves all the time. So sometimes, you may blunder
it's actually possible to get 99.9 accuracy. i saw it in a website once so i might link it if i find jt
Hans is better
@@johnnydeclanbarnes116 i am better than that kid
For everyone wondering at 14:39, the black queen cannot take the rook on d4 because of Qg5+ and then exd4. White should not immediately play dxe4 because of Rxh6
Thank you I was wondering what’s wrong with the move
Thanks for explaining
thanks, was wondering about that
Thanks for explaining. I'd literally have taken the Black Queen immediately and lost my Queen in the sequence.
That's right, I didn't think about that possibility
Wait... I thought this series was gonna be every loss Magnus ever had
Overused joke..... come on bruh
Shut up
That series won't be long
Not enough content, better off using all of hikarus loses to Magnus
Yea I saw ur joke on the last video😂
As a kid I learned how the pieces move but I never thought to 'study' chess and actually try to improve at the game, so, here we are at 55 years old (and after watching The Queens Gambit :-) ) and I've learnt more in a couple of days than I have done in all my years of life! I have to say that this guys enthusiasm for the game is downright infectious so a big thank you to Levy and keep up the good work :-)
How are you doing now? Climbing the chess ladder?
Is the grind still going?
Same
Wow, this is so similar to me! Only learned how pieces move in the childhood, learned more about chess in days than in all years before combined, and also inspired by the Netflix's TV show! Damn! I wonder, how many similar stories exist, and how much Quenn's Gambit brought to the world of chess.
Haha.. Exactly the same here ! Just passed 1600 here, but it all depends on how much time i can put into it how fast i climb.
This game is amazing! Levi analyse so everyone can understand!
11:52
"After bishop takes, you don't take back. It's not checkers" lmao 🤣🤣
LOLLLLL
Lo
L
I feel attacked
My favorite line
Great video, definitely one of his best games.
Meh. I think it's mostly luck...
@@rakrul lol do you really know him ? You don't even know what magnus is capable of.
@@Light-sv2li bro trust him he's 3000 elo legit bro
Well Mr.Rukrul, can you give me a detailed essay to why chess is mostly luck?
rukrul Tell me you’re rated under 1200 without telling me you’re rated under 1200
Carlsen makes sacrifices giving him the upper hand in 10 moves perfectly, then here's me who doesn't see a mate in 2
Don't be so hard on yourself, Magnus missed a mate in 2 last week
Magnus hung his queen in a game in like jan of this year don't worry lol everyone makes mistakes
"and after bishop takes, you don't take back.... it's not checkers." I'm gonna keep that quote with me forever in this game.
imagine levi going to a major chess tourna and just starts narrating every move and every intent of the player.
Imagine Levy and Agadmator doing commentary... Ah yes that's a mate in 29, great move by the knight to fork the bishop and pawn... And stuff... Would be an absolute delight.
They are not allowed to speak of other games during matches. Do not give Chessmasters bad ideas. After the game for sure.
I'd watch that anime lmao
David Howell already does this lol
Has Magnus beaten Carlsen tho?
Best comment here.
Has Nakamura ever beaten Hikaru?
Yes. He has a sister and the reason we have Magnus is because as a child he wanted to beat his sister
yes
explanation- what's his father's title? carlsen right? and in one of his lessons he made on his own app he mentioned he have had beaten his father and sister when he was 10. So yes magnus had beaten carlsen.
@@thegorn agadmator said they drew
''This is Magnus at his peak!''
You can say that about any period of time between 2013 and right now
Nope... After the Caruana WC match Carlsen conceded he wasn't as strong as previously.
Carlsen is fucking washed... Stockfish is rated 1200 ELO higher
@@usernameispassword4023 who cares?
@@shanelawson5072 actually, the year before Caruana Wc match was Carlsen's worst year. But after that match.. He basically won everything in 2019 and on. Just look for it. He went back to his peak on 2019.
@@usernameispassword4023 Supercomputers are better than people in a game with no hidden information - who would've guessed. And because of that reason, you go ahead and call Magnus washed? Then wtf would you call every other current pro? lmao
Also it is far too early to call anything a "peak". The man could play for 20 more years and peak in 10 for all we know.
Chess is so fun for magnus cos he doesn’t get to play magnus
he has Alireza..... then fun ends :-D
@@josefmalar7837 relax, Magnus currently just toying with Alireza. For now Alireza barely able to reach semifinal in most elite tournaments. But yes he is extremely strong and still young. I am sure he can be a world champhion contender one day.
@@samuelsibarani6297 that day has come
"Chess isn't always competetive, chess can also be ... beautiful" Beth Harmon"s quote really suits this game, its just mindblowing art by Magnus.
Is this Magnus Carlsen’s best game? Are there others, in your opinion?
His bongcloud against Wesley is legendary
Yes, there is a shortest game of Magnus Carslen career where it ended draw because Magnus wants to Poop..!!
When you say the best Magnus game ever, I can only think of one thing: really? This game was not as attractive as even a normal Mikhail Tal's game. just a boring positional game. Today is Tal's Birthday man. you should analyze one of the magician game!
Anand has his best game against Aronian too🤔🤓
Bobby Fischer's best game
Meanwhile I'm basically playing head or tail at 800 elo
same here
head or tail
It shows the quality of the highest levels of chess. It's not just their insane calcualational skills (being able to effortlessly see many combinations ahead), but also their positional knowledge is on a different level
I swear i feel like my brain cells just increases by watching these videos
Can we just appreciate Levy's analysis on this one 🙏🙏
Everyone has their greatest games against Aronian lol
Its an old joke
@@pranshusinha7266 who cares LOl
Maybe he is an aggressive player that allows people who calculates long variants to shine
Fact check me on this tho
It is like levon forces the opponent to be more creative than ever...
Really now i am felling sad for that poor guy,hope he also gets some
11:55 "you don't take back, it's not checkers" LOL
Your story telling is really strong. You make chess really interesting, even when not looking at the board. You have a nice way of moving through a story. Appreciate you making chess digestible for people.
The rook-queen dance at 13:50 is beautiful. Thanks for the engaging analysis Levy!
Look at what he said at 1444 though????
Andrew Court its basic ladder checkmate , when you force the king one rank/file towards the edge of the board.. that check was to force the king either up a file so the rook mates or down a file so that the ladder could continue ..
This looks like a Karpov game: constantly increasing the pressure without actually taking anything and wait for the opponent to make a move that will open the door to a particular strategy. It's all about positional pressure that leads to an end game with very little (if none) chance for the opponent to win. I love these games!
It seems like that describes most of Magnus's games. Not a lot of fireworks, just deeply understanding the position and slowly but surely outplaying the opponent.
Nice nice nice video man keep them coming
Yes lol
Non ci credo, sei proprio tu 😍
I love how passionate you were when explaining this match
One of the most brilliant chess game explanations out there; absolutely fantastic!
14:36 Qxd4 - Qg5+(only move). Levy did not mention, and i found only 4 other checks for white.
Thanks for pointing this out.
Because it does not work .
White can check Black's king and then capture Black's queen .
And if Black blocks the check with the queen white captures with a fork on the rook.
I was about to comment on this because I didn’t think of that check, thanks for pointing that out.
good point Andrius
Your energy is really inspiring. The most captivating chess analysis I have ever seen! Amazing content
Great video I remember the game from another video but it did not have this level of explanation. Great job on walking us throughout the game makes me really appreciate just how good he is.
Really happy i found this channel, rly nice content and well explained games.
2:46 “Magnus is showing his first kind of poke”. Spicy!
inspiring and beautifully harmonious, much in keeping with this series
This is a totally different level of Chess altogether. I love the planning and of course a few people get to say "I love when a plan comes together"!! Thanks for bringing it to the layperson like me.
Anand then Carlsen. Why does Aronian always fall prey to these legendary players' immortal games 😂
isnt that a way to make himselph imortal as well? :P
gate keeper hahaha
Also Veselin Topalov. He was the opponent in Alexey Shirov's immortal where Shirov played 'the greatest move in Chess history' according to Agadmator, Anatoly Karpov's immortal, and Garry Kasparov's best game
@@Overlordsen he guides others to a treasure he cannot possess
More players have played immortal games against Topalov. Plus, Aronian also played his immortal game against Magnus, and it was much nicer than this one honestly
This is crazy good analysis and commentary. Thank you so much Levy!
you do a really good job of making the chess interesting. i've seen a ton of chess commentators that do a phenomenal job of explaining but don't do a great job of holding your attention. you did a great job both explaining and engaging
That's where the 1,44 M followers came from!
Such a tatical game.. Magnus at his best and Levon looked like he played nearly perfect.
Also such a good analysis of the game.. you really break down games well Levy
Levy, your analysis is absolutely spectacular and hugely underrated. Big things ahead in the future without question. Sending my best wishes from Ireland!
Anish Giri: Was I a joke to you?
YES
Thank you Levy. I watched this video and tried using some of the concepts in my blitz games. I had a fool trashtalking me as he locked in his light square bishop. I rerouted a knight, traded off his most active piece and forced a resignation. It wasn't super high level but it was enough for me. Thanks again!!
Love watching chess content. you push out the most at the highest quality so easy sub! ty keep rockin !
Vishy's immortal against Levon was insane - would love to have that featured.
I love this series and the commentary is great, good work Levi💪🏼
14:28 after Rd4 interfering with the rook's defence of the queen, why can't black play Qxd4, defending the rook, and attacking the queen? If exd4 then Rxh6 and black is up a rook. Edit: looks like Qg5+ intermezzo allows exd4 on the next move, winning for white.
Thanks. Makes sense with the edit
saw this too, was wondering about Rd4 as well, because that gives black advantage
@Nathan Smith Coz if queen takes Rd4 then there is Qg5+ check and the king has to move and you can capture the queen in the next move
Yep, Qg5* intermediate move works perfectly. What an amazing game!
The game felt so suffocating. "Do anything but I won't let you breath" type of vide
It is honestly beautiful the way you make the pieces almost talk to each other like sides of a battle field!
So well explained. Makes us ordinary people able to get a glimpse of Magnus' genius.
Your coverage is amazing. So thorough and insightful. Thanks very much
thanks - I watched your post on Christmas Day ...it made my week. Beautifully analysed and so well presented. Thanks, man
I am really enjoying this series and want to thank you for helping me improve my chess skills you was also one of the first youtuber that introduced me too chess so just want to say thank you for sharing your chess knowledge. I guarantee a lot of people would say the same
This video is now out of date. Magnus played the greatest game I’ve ever seen in the third place play off in the World Cup last week. Truly outstanding by him
Your comment is now out of date
Great content! Loved to see more of this chess commentary. Cheers
I remember seeing a tournament live and Magnus was in a must win situation with black to win the tournament if I remember correctly and he played some ultra-aggressive opening , sacrificing everything on the D and E file from the beginning but his opponent was playing only forced moves mostly. I can`t remember the game but that was the best game I`ve seen Magnus play.
These are actually really interesting to watch and super engaging! would love to see Kasparov next. Keep it up :)
I wanna see the best “Sad Hikaru” ever to be sad.
Nice clear and brisk style. Becoming a leading commentator on UA-cam, appreciated and subscribed
Very Nice, a complicated game described and broken down very nicely. great vidoeo
Hey man just got to 1300 (started from 300😅), I wanted to thank you it’s only because of you and agadmator that i got this far, so keep up the good work and continue to inspire new chess players like myself
how much time did it take
@@justvibration1 about 7-8 months
1:00 I swear I heard Eric Rosen defense
Happens to me every time
thanks for making top level chess strategies more accessible! great video
6:51 i LOVE when games look like this, so many pieces left after the opening
me too! at my level people love to trade away everything in the opening to keep it simple, but honestly i really love "messy" openings like this one. so much more interesting!
At 14:39, why can't the rook on d4 be taken because once white takes back with the pawn, it loses its queen and black's just up a rook?
Qxd4 Qg5+
White doesn't have to take back immediately, they can check with the queen on g5, then take back next move
@Ogunsona Adeleke Ah I see, thanks.
The best games of MC are those which no one actually understands how great they are
Great vid, i really enjoyed the explanations of different routes possible
SUPERB channel Levy. Many thanks from the UK.
That strategy was in chess beginners book, page 14. Pretty easy.
"This ain't checkers!" - made me feel better lol
I just found yout channel... such an amazing work! Thanks!
This is a typically excellent video, thank you.
Might one suggest the alternative adjective: "Magnusian" (as opposed to Magnesian [which might have been a zungefehler]).
At any rate, looking forward, as ever, to future videos.
What a great post, first time seeing your commentary, I found it instructive, engaging and your enthusiasm is quite joyful!
The thing with carslen is that he just winds and you don't know where it came from. No big sacrifices, just perfect moves
Your style of commentary is really clear and engaging, possibly the best on YT.
Awesome analysis. Also watch agadmator but love your channel just as well. What a formidable player Magnus is. Having a plan that relies on black playing 3 moves and seeing it work flawlessly.
Breaking this game down so perfectly, is as impressive as the game play itself. Thanks Gotham.
Awesome explanation, makes even a low rated as myself player understand. Thank you. You have an innate ability to have anyone understand GM’s games. Keep doing it.
bro huge props for making this so entertaining. the passion!
Love the analyse. Nice work !
Magnus' brilliance in the game matched by Levy's brilliance as an analyst
The man is simply GOAT .....No other words to say...
I love the energy you bring.
I'm new to chess and found you through luds stream
Interesting and VERY well done.
Please keep them coming.
“Magnus was at the peak of his capabilities”
Is he not just getting better? 2020 magnus V 2015 magnus who wins?
I would say 2020 Magnus, he is a beast right now (I'm not trying to downplay his game in 2015 tho)
@@he96765 no..2015 magnus or 2019
Magnus played perfectly this game is insane
Really really enjoyed the video. Instructive interesting inspiring! Thanks!
I love the enthusiasm on how you explain the moves.
I can't believe that position at 14:45, can it really be right? Rd4+ "The only move that wins, and it's beautiful" ? Isn't black simply winning there with QxR, PxQ, RxQ. What am I missing? - AAAH, that one had already been answered further down here. Qxg5+ first, and only then PxQ. OK, guess it will be a while before I can take on Magnus or Levon.
First time I saw I was thinking the same thing. It will take some time for me too XD
11:34
Why didn't Levon played Bh2+, Magnus's queen is gone.....
There is a pawn on g3
You have a really great English accent.
Also very nice vocal intonation. It’s interactive and entertaining.

You talk with so much passion gotham. I wish you started making videos a few years earlier when I was just learning the game and searching through youtube to find a decent teacher who could guide me. This channel is a gold nugget! Period.
Absolutely fantastic video Levy. Firm handshakes.
Levon was basically spectating the whole game Lmao.
*Magnus coughs
Levi: This just shows what a great player he is
but he is :d
Dude. I'm not a chess player but this was fascinating to watch. You know your stuff and you narrated brilliantly. I just about understood probably about 4% of it but i was mesmerised by your commentary. Great stuff.
