    Im interested at playing chess and days after started trying to get into strategies because of this exact reason 5:33

    I just started playing during covid. Maybe this will help me prevent getting my a** handed to me in every game.

    Such a great video. So much helpful info and very interesting. Simply useful. Thank you

    thanx by castling on the kings side not doubling up prawns i have gone from 390 rating to 420 i have been stuck on 390 for weeks

    oh come on i watched it because its a girl lol…

    HELLO cute botez please challenge me???💪 😁🇵🇭

    Really solid advice that was well presented, thank you.

    disagree about castling. Pressure your opponent enough that he rather fights to survive, than aims to attack. Castle at the end to bring the extra rook in the attack

    she should be a voice over actor, she sounds like a cartoon character

    Pawns ambition, bishops burden, knights quest, queens rule, etc, what is it but a reoccurring memory game of crowns, an eternal, endless cycle of philosophical choices we live by?

    Andrea is Andrea. All these comments on her speech, looks, clothes, are all subjective. Meaning: “in your little mind.” What a waste of energy. Enjoy her and the content of the video or don’t. I don’t care about your insecurities. These are high school mentalities. Try to win popularity.

    I play chess a lot this has improved my game a lot plus she’s a hot teacher that helps

    Nice video and I can't argue with your list of rules.

    This voice explained to me …… like she’s a 6 year old

    You should say "Deploy your knights and bishops" rather than "Take out your knights and bishops'. This is war, of a sort, after all.

    she looks like the sniper wolf person 😛

    Only if people actually cared this much about Sc2 RIP

    I'm new here which sister is the better player, really enjoying this channel.

    I can't understand u speak way fast n even the move

    I guess we’re all supposed to know what tf castle means? Laymans terms Andrea

    Hell yes! Finally a video that goes right into the tips

    Love your vids, but please….it’s ‘versus’ not ‘verse’. I know two syllables are a hassle but good use of language is very cool.

    What a great video solid advice and easy to understand!

    This has been the best video. I’ve been looking for a good down to earth explanation of why and when we move pieces. I’m new to chess. Thank you for making this video.

    Very well and quick explaned. Thank you!

    Just saved this to my Favorites file. No long, tedious, intros – I know what the video is about from the title. She gets right to it. We need more like this.

    Rule nr. 11, all those rules are good to follow but are not carved in a magic stone, even the best players sometimes break with it completely and win

    My strategy is to move the pond diagonally to the king 1st and then move the pond in the middle move the queen in front of the king and then after I do all my Other porn moves I move Brooks right next to the queen protecting it The reason why I moved the blinds diagonally to the king 1st is because being attack diagonally seems the least obvious

    Really well done. I'd like to show this to my 14yo and start playing some games with him using these strategies!
