I love how in the beginning he is kind and then later he says "If this is a 1700 I WILL SLAP THEM, unless if its a child. but man or woman I WILL SLAP THEM"
I love how in the first game in this video he is caring about his subscriber's feelings and explaining to them why he thought he is 650 and in 2022 he is just like shut up bozo IDC
lol I saw the most recent ones and then decided to bingwatch the series from the start and this was EXACTLY my thoughts, its like going from seeing Gordon Ramsey acting with kids to seeing him with the adults
aww. wanted to see you guess higher rated people. do you have a mod that can like, curate an even spread for you next time? glad to see the 2000 rated player, good to learn from. except the queen sac.
Levy then: "You played brilliantly, missed a few moves, one blunder is bound to happen. Beautiful. Nice." Levy now: "Y'ALL TRAAAAAASH, NAH NAH, YOU HUNG THE QUEEEEEN, NOOOOO, WHAT ARE YOU DOOOING!" And I love it.
“White is trying to run headfirst into a truck, trying to dent the truck. It’s a moving truck by the way.” A FEW SECONDS LATER... “You know what, white is running into a truck, with a scooter, not just their head.” And this is why Levy is the best chess commentator.
I feel like this series deserves more status. Like, youre really good at it, it should have a catchy name and people should cover your idea, ya feel me? Anyways, keep it up, your recaps are the best content on the internet change my mind
Levy in guess the elo eisode 3: You have to practice some openings. You played really welll according to your rating. You have a mate in here but no problem to miss that... I hope you are not offended. Levy in guess the elo episode 13: Heyyy bro wtf are you doing? You have a rock use it! Play agressive! Are you even my sub? Is this chess
Hey levy, appreciate the constant stream of content, but make sure not to overwork yourself! Especially with the Opera Euro transitioning into Pogchamps Live stream for 4 hours, and then a 20 Min recap daily, make sure to take care of yourself, k?
This video killed me 😂😂 the Australian accent was so perfect as well as “black is running face fist into a moving truck to try and dent it “ and then correcting him self saying of black has a scooter 😂😂😂
Hah, I love Levy's and higher rated player's reactions to silly moves, especially when Levy and others are cool enough to follow up with some helpful hints which not all high-rated players do.
Im new to chess. I started learning after my friend asked me to play a game of chess after loosing so many times, I decided I want to be good, so I am reading guides from books and your videos are fun to watch. Im also practicing a lot. My road to graduate from nub is just beginning
Keep up the great work Levy! Whenever I quit chess and some months later I come back, it´s always great to see people making top quality content with the same passion, if not even more. Love the series by the way, such a cool concept.
game 3 blew my mind, I love this series keep up the great content, came here from hikaru and I 100% would have never found you or gave your videos the time of day if not for you doing stuff with him. I don't know what it is about you but you look like someone I wouldn't like, maybe like an electro wizard from clash royale. But dope videos I am glad I checked out your stuff.
someone should send a game with them and their friends playing at 200 level missing all the obvious plays but actually being 2000s or smthg to throw this man off
OMG, When I open UA-cam, I always see a notification for a new video by Levi. Truly the energy and enthusiasm of yours toward chess is remarkable. Much love from Bangladesh ❤️❤️❤️
This is going to sound super weird but these videos are a huge confidence boost, i have been playing for like 6 months and always felt that my elo was too low, seeing real people with elos close to or below mine that have sunk above a week in chess makes me really happy.
They don’t even make any sense and haven’t for 10 years. It used to be “last time I came this early my girlfriend left me” which was unoriginal but at least it’s a joke that makes sense. “Last time I was this early” + “something that happened a long time ago” isn’t even a joke
This is some quality content! I could literally watch this for hours. Your insight is fun, and for that High level game, where you were impressed by the moves, I had no earthly clue why those moves were good😅😂 please keep doing this! Love your videos!🙌🏼
I think it would be super interesting if you asked subs to submit losses. I feel like most people submit games where their opponent hangs an early piece or makes a blunder late and it kind of rolls off from there. Love the content, that being said. Super fun series so far!
Anna Cramling after blundering her queen: "Oh god that was embarrassing, good job no one else will see this."

Is there a clip of this or is this just a though? lol

"When you can take a hangging piece, take it"
Someone who is playing against a GM and the queen is hangging: Doubt
I am absolutely losing my shit at the sound he made at 22:40
I knew exactly where this was going to take me because I had to pause to laugh, but I still clicked and I regret nothing

Me not even knowing how to see my rating

Uh ok so you know what? White is running into a truck "with a scooter". Killed me 😂😂
22:41 Didn't know humans could make this sound..
The more you know
My best attempt at translating the title into Japanese: ””私のサブスク人達のチェス格付けを察する（第三話）”
“White is trying to run headfirst into a truck, trying to dent the truck. It’s a moving truck by the way.”
A FEW SECONDS LATER...
“You know what, white is running into a truck, with a scooter, not just their head.”
And this is why Levy is the best chess commentator.
This is such a great series idea! So entertaining and instructive as well.
With those accurate guesses he should bet on the lottery today!
"Excuse me? Excuse me by both players?"

18:27 I call a premove - Anna probably didn't expect the queen shying away in the corner - explains the 1 second taken for the move to be made.
if you premove it doesn't take 1 second to do the move, it does it instantly.
