Awesome video! I have been studying the opening for some time now and it really is a very enjoyable part of the (meta) game.
Have to stand up for lichess here. You can actually choose which ratings get shown in you db analysis. So what I would recommend for lichess falks out there is this: prepare for your own rating. That means you play moves by masters but when you are giving a move to your opponent (during study) you take a peek at what your peers are doing. Sometimes they all make the same mistakes 🙂
That you i
how to study endgames
I used to have a life and play video games, now I learn chess openings
Great advice/information (again) – thanks
cool..thanks for this.. the longer I was watching the more I waited when you gonna bring out your wand, then it occurred to me, wrong video..lol.. joke..
how should I send gotham chess games
Me joined some chess event in my school:
Me actually got picked for the tournament: GothamChess here we go-
I was studying openings but largely abandoned it as every game evolves into so many different lines and variations. I try to just play a strong positional and tactical game.
Love the strategy of chess but it's out dated as far as a battlefield now send in air strikes right to the queen or missiles subs and ships patrolling the water out side the board aircraft in the sky paratroopers ect don't apply to chess but cool thanks man
In a true battle I'm moving all troops not just one at a time or even gorilla tactics so that doesn't apply to chess
Push them back and move all your troops forward
Then infantry is attacking your pawns and knightd my paratroopers and sog groups are taking your king and queen from behind check mate real war cover my men with air strikes
Not taking shit just war is a 360degree battle field not in today's world
Thank you man
that was amazing, thanks Gothamchess!!
"it's for 16, 18, 2000" me, an absolute shitter, sitting at 300
3:42 did that pawn just move sideways?
I’m gonna make something called “The Cock Defense”
thank you im really tryna level up my chess skills finally done with being a low tier
Good God, this goes way too fast for me. Too bad.
Kings gambit example:
1. e4 e5 2. f4 exf4 3. Nf3 g6 4. Bc4 Bg7 5. c3 Ne7 6. Ng5 Bf8 1-0
I started playing chess about a week ago. And I'm addicted. Can't wait to see in a few years
5:12 levy was preparing early, that's why he can put up videos about their match so fast
I asked Levy about this on stream and he lead me here. Thank you so much I'm a solid 1800 player and most of my losses are because of my poor opening knowledge. This was a life-saver. Your content is really amazing!
I have a 50% win rate
Ah yes, the classic "this vid is for everyone" and then the listing of 100 opening/defense names that no beginner would know.
But i kid, i did like this vid. I feel like i could come back to it later once i have learned some opening and stuff and it would help even more.
the walking through fire analogy was immense
I found the content educational. Sadly they are so short that I feel much is being washed over. The information was a bit confusing to me, ergo the reason one should watch the video over and over and make notes maybe, IDK. Now. I would really be interested in seeing something on the Hippopotamus Defense and the Hedgehog.
i play with white B3
No matter at what level you are
Magnus:
When I play against CPU.
Me: "Fuck! Chess, I'll never be good at this".
When I play against some dumbass.
Me: "I've mastered the game, I'm a pro".
3:50 damn I have that pop-song stuck in my head… "like a G6, like a G6!"
Fantastic video man thank you
"and even amateur games, games that are 1600, 1800, 2000…"
Cries silently at 1200 :*(
Name of the content is not matching the video. it would be better if u write Analazing chess openings.
My go-to opening has been the Iron Lotus, which was developed in North Korea but considered too dangerous.
I am thinking what to write and I only can think of writing Thank you Levy!!! What an ad vice to study openings, really thank you! No more comments
