So basically the python is stronger than a jaguar so far, huh?
2:53 "Or elsewhere"
We know.
Whoever showed the chess screen. Did not play one of the openings right.
Shame they couldn't get a pro player, but Levy is cool too I guess.
"Vibrating devices in shoe or elsewhere" .. we ALL know the exact context he's talking about.
Contrapoints getting into the questions! 😂
Contrapoints showing up in this video almost made me cry. I love you so much Natalie
omg Natalie is in this video so cool
Always amused how every response move is named after someone
00:33 thankfully I know arabic so i know that the word "mat" means "di
ed"
sscrifice THE ROOK!!!
What is the difference between chess tactics and strategy?
Paul Morphy and Bobby Fischer had the most talent.
Fun fact: In some languages the knight is actually called a horse.
Example:
The knights name in Latvian- Zirgs
Zirgs translates to horse.
nice!!!!!!!!!!
"Shah mat" means "the king died"
Im a 1300 and don't understand it 💀
I love how wrote the Persian backwards
vibrating devices LOL
Mat al shah in arabic مات الشاه بالاصل
Never realized Charles Leclerc can play chess!
I thought you were going to invite a chess pro
sooooo baddddd
Is there anybody tell you that you look like Harry Potter?
I play competitive Vintage MTG which is way harder than chess. I have no clue what pieces you have or what they do. Unlike chess.
you came for 3:00
For those who turned their pawn into ang horsey what happened?
Shah mat is also in albanian for checkmate
9:56 here in Indonesia we called it Kuda which means a horse.
slay
10:00 In Portuguese, at least in Brazil, the Knight piece is infact called the Horse LMAO
I didn't know Daniel Radcliff was a pro chess player
14:00 Gotham always says he wishes you could take a king
This is really well done
This guy is a great communicator
Gotham should have called Hikaru an Asian mom, who always calls you a failure. (Personal experience)
Just wait till the wokeists come for chess … you know they are gonna
test
You lost me by not naming Morphy as one of the best Chess players of all time.
12:55 can't the queen go F4 and checkmate in one move?
he said to become a grandmaster you need 2500 he has 2778
12:54 "How fast can to you find checkmate in 2?"
Me: Looks at board….this outta be fu….
12:57 "I found it"
Me: 😐
Tipping your King over. You will lose every time.
he looks like his name is on the tip of my tongue
"Magnus has an incredible stamina – he will go on fro 5, 6, 7 hours"
Taken out of context this line sounds so bad lol
If 1% of people had the communication clarity that this guy has, a LOT of the problems in the world would simply not exist.
Schlatt
I have to say that the game not always have 3 phases, for example, the games that ends in mate with 2 or 4 moves. The phases are an style of game, it is not mandatory but is the current standard in serious games and professional level
2:50 vibrating devices
people who dont know: 🙂
people who know: 💀
"It's extremely difficult to pinpoint exactly what a knight wants to do." You're telling me. I don't even know what my own knights want to do next.
