  • @George_Bland
    @George_Bland 6 місяців тому +44

    The biggest thing I’ve learnt from this speed run is that 600s can actually play chess! I’d kind of thought everyone below maybe 900 are just hanging pieces left right and centre but these games have actually been something!

    • @dhochee
      @dhochee 2 місяці тому +1

      It was crazy that a 600 player almost had Rosen in a difficult situation. I've had many similar experiences against friends who aren't as strong as me, but I'm no master. Kinda refreshing to see that happen even with such a giant disparity in strength. :D

    • @TheeChosenWon

    @juleslondon3088 6 місяців тому +1

    14:35 A good example of where simply counting attackers vs defenders doesn’t work. White has two defenders of f2 and black has 2 attackers so a simple count says you can’t take. But white can’t take back first with the king; it would have to be with the queen, then black would take the queen and white would only get two minor pieces for the queen and pawn.

    I play this Wayward Queen on my "for fun" account, and it still plays surprisingly well at a ~1600 level. Of course you get no scholar's mates, but the queen has nice pressure on the center thruout the middlegame, and black's bishop on g7 is just staring at the e5 pawn not doing much. On the other hand, white has to develop the knight to e2 where it has no prospects with f4 and d4 being covered. It's fun to play for a change of pace.

    Loving this Series. These types of speedruns are the most educational, especially for those of us under 1800ish I think. I'm stuck between 1250 and 1400ish, mostly due to my lack of patience at times. Sometimes I really want to play and can't and often when I can play I am not in the best condition to concentrate. Chess is HARD.
    For those of you wanting more of this Alessia Santeramo did one of these recently and it is very similar and fun to watch too. I'm addicted to this format.

    For the people talking about the speed of the speedrun, think of how many years of chess it takes to get as good as Eric or Danya or whoever and compare that to how quickly the account is getting ELO. I don't know ages, but imagine it took 20 years to get where they are today and compare that to how fast they hit around their current ELO. Even if it takes a year it's still WAY faster than the first go around haha

    Every time I watch one of these videos from this series, my rating goes up for a day or so. Although then it wears off and I am back where I started.

    The queen attraction into the royal fork is nutty

      For the series? 10/10. My elo? Less than Real Rosen but more than current speedrun baby Rosen.

    Eric with his 2400 rating thinks through moves that I, a 1200 player just moves on without much thought.

    I love that the lesson is slow so that i can understand the process behind every move

    1:47 in this position, the best move IMO is 5.Nb5, which simultaneously attacks c7 and forces the queen off of the diagonal defending it, forcing it back to d7 or d8 if Black doesn't want to lose the exchange.
