As a person that has played chess, this is the easiest trick in the book. Especially against newbies. Normally it's a 4 move checkmate called the scholar's mate but he played a bit with the pawns first to make the newbie distracted, and harder to notice the checkmate coming.
Ya, I mentioned it in my comment. He did the pawn stall to move her knight. She was lucky and it was defending that position. He distracted her by making her think the pawn was worth taking.
@@nise8531 magnus might have done it at some point, but this guy beat Ludwig, Atrioc and Stanz simultaneously while blindfolded. There's a video on his channel and on Ludwig's, it's really funny.

like another person said, she didn’t know anything about chess before this, but the bigger issue with using humbled is that she wasn’t overconfident or arrogant whatsoever. there’s no ego to humble in this video, so there’s essentially zero reason to use ‘humbled’ over something that describes a defeat normally, or otherwise something that refers to her shock of being beaten by a blindfolded player.

Its not only the insane skill and memory its the intimidation and also the fact that he pointed out the pawn was getting attacked to show he knew what he was doing scaring her (310 likes damn)

That "your attacking my pawn" hit different
She literally got scholars mate by a man who is blindfolded
Who do you think he is???
He is literally an International Master and one of the best chess youtuber out there......Once he literally defeated a 2000-2000 rated player while being blindfolded
@@Legend-9658 I know bro it's a joke
Not just any regular man , an international master .

I love how you look at the camera when he said "attacking my pawn"😂😂

i think he's secretly gojo, but with his other half surgically attached and is an expert at chess.
that transition was like a magic trick because him taking off his glasses was symbolic of taking off the blindfold. Most interesting part of the video
It's great editing, but the most interesting part is that this dude just moped the floor with her BLINDFOLDED 🤯
Yeah! It made me remember how when asking random people to recognize Levy, the majority said that he was probably a wizard 😂😂😂
@@jonjeskie5234 Not at all, he's an international master. She committed the beginner mistake of trying to play with the fact that he was blindfolded and not playing correctly because of that confidence 😅
@@nopinias69if someone were to put on a blindfold I'd know I'm beaten
If they have the memory to remember piece placement without seeing them, means he knows the game too well
she got respectfully humbled bruh
She didn’t know anything about chess bruh wym humbled
@@jassimarsingh6505 people don’t know what stuff means when they say it
do you even know what humbled means
like another person said, she didn’t know anything about chess before this, but the bigger issue with using humbled is that she wasn’t overconfident or arrogant whatsoever. there’s no ego to humble in this video, so there’s essentially zero reason to use ‘humbled’ over something that describes a defeat normally, or otherwise something that refers to her shock of being beaten by a blindfolded player.
She knows chess notation, so she isn’t a complete novice
You know that you are screwed at the start of the game when the opponent says "I will wear a blindfold" before anything 💀💀💀
Announcer: Welcome back to the fall asleep Olympics
"I will wear a blindfold"
"Nah bro that's cheating"
This is like Matt Murdock playing chess

Bro is scholars mating with extra step blind folded
i mean this was basically everyone’s introduction to chess 😅 except without the blindfold
he actually plays optimal moves. she just walks into scholars mate
This is what happens when you go against the final boss without completing the story💀😭
Actually Levi blundered, after F4 there is en passant, brilliant move. There is no way Michelle would be able to take this much pressure. Pipi in her pampers is now unavoidable.
Wouldn't that block the queen that was prepped to checkmate?
@@4myzelf doesn't matter, en passent is forced
@@nino9273 just because it's a cool move doesn't mean it has to be played
To the 2 replies that don't get it, it's a meme that you have to play en passant if you can, so the 2 other dudes are just memeing, chill.
@@RExN6900 i know its a meme, just replying it factually, chill.
blud really hit her with a scholar's mate 💀
What is that???
@@NahJerrysolosbasically you move king's pawn 2 squares, then put your bishop and queen to attack the square that's forward left of the enemy king and take with queen. you can do it only to beginners tho, after like 700 elo nobody falls for it
@@NahJerrysolosit’s a chess term refering to a cheese strategy which is heavily reliant on the opponent’s lack of experience and awareness. In this video, the scholar is performed in a less common variation, but to put it bluntly, scholar mating someone is the most popular chess way of shouting “skill issue”
@@m.rak804cheese strategy 😂
The simplest checkmate where bishop protects the queen so she can checkmate on the pawns' line.
Levy didn't mate with bishop. As a Gotham fan, I'm ashamed.

Its not only the insane skill and memory its the intimidation and also the fact that he pointed out the pawn was getting attacked to show he knew what he was doing scaring her

Its really not impressive when her chess knowledge was basically negative.

That chess player is not only skilled but smart for memorising where he kept his chess characters and knowing what Michelle is trying to do.
"characters"... Mr. Helz..009, if that even is your real name, we will find you... ALL of us will find you, that's right, YOU. There is no point for hiding now. It's too late, you initiated the trap, it's checkmate, you fell for the Ponziani checkmate, you have played the Mosquito gambit, you put "grandmaster" in your twitter bio after watching The Queen's Gambit...
But most importantly...
It's actually called a "piece"! Not a "character"! Hope this helps you!
You'll need any help you can get right about now...
@@DecentAssailantI read "chess characters" and broke instantly, holy shit that caught me off guard
New fear unlocked imagine your going to sleep and a dark figure just asks you “want to play chess” looking straight into you eyes

"for the whole game?!"
"No just until we start"
"I'll wear a blindfoled"
"Now i'm Gojo"
i rushed into the comments as soon as he put the blindfold on expecting a gojo comment and this is the only one suprisingly lol

as if that makes it any fairer xDxD
Damn
Looks like Levy took out a page from Hans Neumann's book 😂
Dude is crazy he used a 4 move chess move strategy and when she countered it improvised perfectly and got the checkmate
Levi didn't wanna lift his fingers so he wears a blind fold
LMAO I never thought of it that way. That’s so funny
hah this is literally why i played blindfold chess in the breaks in college
Gotham:I will be blindfolded
Michelle:Ok then,I will be mute
"It's not a fair fight so let me dunk on this scrub" damn that was savage

"Respectfully, What the ***k?!" Flew my soul away.
I just like your expression after this:

Honestly, I was hoping he'd just scare the crap out of her at some point yelling "I'm going to sacrifice....THE ROOK!"

he basically was just able to picture everything in his mind, against total darkness
yes, but if you can't picture things in your mind you might have aphantasia
@@skyguy1236 no of course, i was meaning he literally just mental mapped it, taking hid vision out of the picture to basically blue print every move he could do while he envisions the board and pieces
