    Subscribed

  8. I’ve been practicing everyday for about two months went from 900 to 1700

  9. why is the black night going back. black could just put a pawn forwards. losing a tower against a knight is stupid. the whole strategy makes no sense

  10. but I thought magnus's favorite opening was the "Honey, I don't like this side of the bed, let's switch sides" opening

  11. This is also my most favorite opening its only competition is sicillian defense

  12. I'm glad that I found this channel…… Feels like someone made history interesting by narrating Hitler……. I think it's easier lets have a kill streak that weak won't survive πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

  13. Black instead of c6 knight guarding. Playef f6 pawn guards pawn which you didnt cover. I lost horribly and had to resign 😭 oh god levyyyyyy coming back to you 😒

  14. Your videos are fun to watch! Entertaining and educative.

  15. Fuck, i feel like my IQ went up like 100 points after seeing this video.

  16. Holy Quack this is legitimately as intense as Sukuna vs Gojo

  17. The music: βœ…
    The explanations: βœ…
    The conniving: βœ…

  18. You show the hardest variations easily…..I used it in tournament and I got 2nd prize

  19. Hey man, what voice generator / tts do you use?

  20. Man I'm so happy I found your channel, I'll get to show off when you cross a million subs πŸ€“

  21. Only if math were this entertaining and easy to learn

  22. Lol. I sacrificed the knight always and didn’t give a damn about the pawn. Whooops. This stuff makes sense. Beautiful. Thank you!

  23. Im mix of black and white in example 2 πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

  24. the greatest style of chess teaching. thank you

  25. Really love your sound effects…I wish Gotham chess do like this

  26. Can we have more middle game concepts? I love your channel and I am pretty good at the beginning then I feel like I’m guessing. Also the end game 😭

  27. What if they send the queen's pawn to d5 in the beginning after you establish your knight and pawn

  28. This is too much torture for my little brain 🧠😭😭

  29. I have been playing this without knowing it’s the Ruy Lopez. After I found out, I thought why not learn how to actually play it. So I watched some guides and didn’t understand anything besides memorizing a couple moves. For those who haven’t watched other guides: This guide is so easy, it’s insane.
