    Literally one of the best chess tutorials I have watched.
    One of Levy's greatest strengths as a chess teacher is he has a good understanding of how lower rated Chess players think and move. Instead of a video full of "Here's what you do", there's a lot of "Here's how I think you would do it, and I understand why you do it, but here's a better way".

      In which time control though? 2000 in rapid is really easy, just use your time wisely and think about how every move your opponent makes changes their control of both the dark and light squares so that you can counter their expansion and overwhelm them with your own while watching out for tactics.
      If your opponent is lower rated than you, try squeezing them in a positional grind and slowly win. If they're higher, open the position to allow for dynamic positions and counterplay. Build a solid 2-3 repertoires for both white and black that you can use when you have longer matches with the same opponent, like best of 3 or best of 5.
      Do these things to get from 1600-2000.
      Up to 1600, you gotta just grind the patterns of the game into your head with puzzles and tactics and respond not incorrectly in high tension situations.

    Hello Levy, you might not see this but after months of binge watching your videos I've achieved the rating of 1000. (I've been stuck at the 1160s but regardless) I just wanted to say thank you for putting out the content that you do regardless if haters rag on you for being click baity or unserious. To me and plenty of other people you've been an excellent resource, dear entertainer, and someone I now regularly enjoy watching even if I am not constantly studying chess because I enjoy your videos for you. I hope you continue to find joy and fulfillment in making content and that your wife and dog are well. P.S. When I have the funds I'd like to purchase one of your courses to help advance my chess. Maybe I'd like to become a titled player later in life but who knows how life will go but you've definitely inspired me to want persue this silly game.

    I am really struggling to reach 1500. I can defeat high 1300s, but I lose to high 1400s and low 1500s. Really waiting eagerly for the next rating checkpoint (probably 1500 if you see this).
    Edit: There are really good stuffs for intermediate/advance players too in this video! I am gonna watch the full video.

      Make sure your openings aren’t blunders, and get pieces active. Master advanced tactics: fork, pin, skewer, deflection, danger levels. Know the basic endgames and how to actively use your king and rook. Learn checkmating patterns and short term sacrifices to get that advantage.

    • @leonthethird7494
      @leonthethird7494 Рік тому +3

      2 things. The pool of players who play blitz is a lot smaller than rapid, 10 mil vs 27 mil. This means that average Blitz player is likely a bit more of an enthusiast/chess-fanatic than the average Rapid player. Since the rating system is based on a bell curve, 700 blitz is gonna represent a more skilled player than 700 rapid. Personally I find the difference to be 150 eloish but maybe it varies. The other reason is the time controls obviously, Both 3 and 5 minutes are blitz so just play 5 if you werent already

    Great advice, especially playing out games completely when low elo. At this level so many people dont even know how to checkmate with two rooks. Theres so much inconsistency with skill online due to how Cc lets you just start with 400/800 elo. Some people start a new account and manage to get 1000elo by just starting as 800(picking intermediate) and getting lucky winning with early queen/bishop attacks. They dont even always need to be successful as some just resign if you manage to get a rook/queen or something early.
