can you put 2 channel on the site, like one for white the other for black? it would be an interesting streamer-sub hand-brain battle if you can do that
That was a lot of fun, hopefully we see it or something similar again. I didn't analyze that full second game, but I think that bishop move at 29:48 is what ended up securing the draw, instead of going Rd1#, Kf2, Rf1# (protected by the bishop) and then trying to find some play with white's king in the middle of the board. Assuming we ignore the Kh1 shenanigans, at least.
I'm pretty sure some members of chat weren't coming up with those moves themselves, I suspect engine analysis will say they made the most accurate move most of the time. and not because chat is filled with grandmasters.
@@fisheatsyourhead hmm I just think it is the power of averages, with hundreds of people in chat assuming they play chess the most popular move is likely to be a very good one
Could do a ton of fun stuff in the future, NL chat vs. Dan's chat, vs. Levy's chat, vs. Dan. I'm also unironically impressed with chat's maturity in rejecting the bongcloud on only the second game.
twitch chat is a very interesting opponent actually. its not like a 1500 or a ‘1500’ rated bot. its a hivemind of 700s. It’s like an 800 except they dont hang their pieces. Very unique
I voted against chat during the points prediction, got scared when chat got good, then got annoyed when they offered M1. I would really love to see the analysis on this one! (The second one, obviously, not the hot garbo from the Bongcloud) All in all, really pogged content!
I know this is 6 months old but I'm very proud I found the winning line for black at 29:23. 1. Rd1+ Kf2, 2. Rf1+ Ke3, 3. f4+ e4, 4. Bc6+ d5, 5. Re1+ Kd4, 6. Rd1+ Kc5, 7. Bxd5 ... and then prepare for a very long and tough endgame eking out that advantage. I had to finish it out with the computer's help.
Chat needs to play lines anyone can see at the cost of being obvious to NL. It lead to chat doing what they need for chat to be safe rather than having the freedom to play something risky. Like the tragedy of Darth Plagueis the wise, they could save chat from death but at the cost of themselves.
the bishop at the end could only snipe a stacked pawn, where as Ryan was ready to open a file for his pawn to march to the end. No doubt about it, chess dot com would love ryans position more
JESUS CHRIST, NL.... I was listening to a more subdued video and then yours autoplayed after and I pooped myself a little. Good to hear your dulcet tones....but I hope next time I do it is at a time of my choosing.
Oh Snap! the chat vote lines looks like a chess computer's canidate moves list! The difference is the top move for a computer is in % and this is in votes. there's a bong cloud for ya
NL, did you watch Levy's video with Hikaru on gambits. They talk about the Englund Gambit and how no one would fall for it. It's literally the gambit that won your queen in the blitz video
You should play against subscribers. Eric Rosen tried and found that playing against subs there is no bongcloud. Also he played on lichess with normal bot where you could enter "Ba1"
Haven’t watched yet but I already know that after I watch I won’t be physically able to comment due to the fact that I will be logged out of my freaking gourd
NL is such a pleb. He didn't realize the first game was the accelerated bongcloud.
lmao I'm done
Yep. Instead of smoking it and exhaling, you ghost the bong hit and develop your king. It’s all theory.
I thought we were going to see the bing bang boom accelerated bongcloud variation a very trappy line, but NL decided to go for the lame accelerated bongcloud variation.
I was imagining the king as a real human, like a middle aged fat man very angrily stomping over to the white king to slap him.
Ah yes. One of the most solid openings for Black, the Englund Gambit Accepted: Bongcloud Variation.
Just like the masters of old

Black: I changed your mind for you, thank me later
"you have developed your king a little faster than I have" LMFAO
That king, bravely marching out on to the field of battle alone to challenge the entire enemy army to single combat. That’s a monarch I can respect.
I also learned how to play chess from watching Code Geass
And checkmate. Pretty much the only monarch I can checkmate.

You've gotta start with a meme to assert your dominance.

Big oof
Dont disrespect the bongcloud
Yeah and the second one is kind of fishy
Stockfishy
I love that the game eventually devolved into half of chat fighting against the suicidal memers. Peak NL chat.
duality of chat embodied
Ryan was unaware that we actually challenged him to king of the hill. So we technically won game 1
Ahh yes my favourite. The extended bongcloud
Bongcloud opening: Advanced Variation
Bongcloud opening: Hyperextended variation
twitch chat variation
Twitch chat showing an opening learned from the great GM Hikaru right there
Chat drawing the game is actually a GM level move, they draw all the time at tournaments
Chat round one: Kings Pawn, Bong Cloud Variation™
Chat round two: Ryab's Gambit, Big Brain Variation™
Chat: "I offer a loss"
That first game was probably the most I've laughed in months! Amazing content!!
“but you have developed your king faster than i have for sure” LMAOOOOOO
E1 - G1. Ah the bong cloud denied.
Lichess has this IIRC. It also has analysis
2:40 "I didn't see that coming"
I somehow saw exactly what was coming.
So proud of twitch chat for that opening, the power of collaboration right there.
h2-h3 play was very fun, seeing the machine learn and beat the trolls
In half these rounds I bet one of those single vote (1) moves was some 2400 getting really pissed off no one was helping him
30:32 Bc5 then maybe Rxb5 is playable after axb5, a6, Ra2, a7 and then march your king to the center.
Now we need Gotham to do analysis of this
We need Gotham to get to 1000+ ELO from low hundreds by using the accelerated bong cloud opening

Really interesting how the averages even out to some really good moves, would be interesting to see engine analysis
Collective intelligence is powerful thing. They can be 5x more intelligent than the average person in the group in this way.

NL's biggest fear, chat doing the sensible thing

Oh I remember this one guy asked in sinvictas chat to type in random moves a couple weeks back. The legend actually did it!
Chat would've won if Ryan didn't take the tempo.
True he wouldn’t have been able to get his king to the A file in time. Dirty cheater
dude friggin chat throwing the second game was so frustrating, chat's very own pot play.
4:20 it is pretty amusing how long it took GM NL to recognize that the position was checkmate
This one was really fun, and worked so much better than expected. Hope you do this again NL! Also challenges from viewers could be fun? idk

except that file was never going to open without an egregious blunder from white, there was no way to undraw that game without a major blunder.

I think the notation is O-O or O-O-O depending on short or long castle. Or you might just say e1-g1 and it'll recognize castling as a legal move
