    The way Nepo plays is interesting. Because his positions are solid enough that he forces his opponent to think, and he thinks on his opponents time, which is exhausting but keeps him up on the clock. He's almost daring his opponent to play some wild hair-brained idea that might not be entirely sound

      True, that’s kinda annoying how Levy jumps out of his way to cushion Hikaru’s accumulating failures. Probably because he collabs with him the most, but I still find it weird, as in his recent interview he gave in Russian he told that he doesn’t really know who he is to Hikaru or other top players, so they weren’t really buddies-buddies in the first place.

    Levy I think your video format is great! However, in my opinion, I think you should increase the video length. Maybe spend more time on each game (assuming their spicy) and dissect them more as they are elite level games competing for the top title. There are a lot of ideas that can easily be missed and most people watching the candidates are chess nerds and won’t mind watching more levy so long as chess is played. Maybe don’t shy from longer video to cover these more complex games? Just an idea:)

    It's funny I was watching this yesterday because I was at a chess tourment and they had that playing while we were waiting
