    I’m 300 rated. Started playing a few weeks ago 😁

    If numerical rankings can go into the negative, I'd be there.

    Levy: "There isn't any substance usage in chess"

    drunk magnus flashbacks

    "magnus has an incredible stamina, he will go on for 5,6,7 hours."

    as a german listening to levi saying zugswang is just hilarious

    I'm 16 years old do I have alot of time to be a gm?

    I think a better way to put the value of Knight vs Bishop is that their value depends on the board state and positioning. Closed boards favor Knights, open boards favor Bishops. A piece that is well positioned is worth more than a poorly positioned piece.

    vibrating devices in their shoe or elsewhere where is elsewhere?

    You’re saying that you don’t know why knight isn’t called a horse, well, I want you to know that it is actually called that in Russian language – КОНЬ (kon’), horse

    I was trying to make a chess game using Java but youtube had other plans to recommend me lmao

    I am getting scared of the giant-sized Queen

    levy, does frankenstein dracula chess opening is considered named after a place?

    Levy Rozman? More like Levy Rizzman!😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

    Ok sure he is faster but when you think about how the tennis player isn’t wearing shoulder pads, a helmet, and leg pads, the nfl player would be way faster

    Šah mat is used in Serbian instead of check mate, Šah is also the name of the game (chess), so it could mean chess frozen, because the pieces cant be moved without losing the king.

    This guy looks like he plays chess. There’s a freshman at my school that looks like him but younger

    At 12:54 wouldn’t the queen moving to f4 just be checkmate it one move?

    One thing I love about chess is that when you lose it isn’t because you were unlucky, it was because you made a mistake somewhere. That causes you to learn what your mistake was and improve

    "That is the way you would win a chess game. By cheating." That was rude, man. Just plain rude.

    A knight is the only piece that can jump/skip over other pieces… uniquely valuable. Oddly not mentioned.

    Check mate is arabic like check is the old man "cheikh" and mate is ded

    The worse move is probably-Resigning without playing

    9:57 fun fact in czech chess knight is called kůň
    which meanst horse.

    And he sacrificed, THE QUEEEEEEEENNNNNN

    “Vibrating devices in their shoe or elsewhere”

    i thought checkmate meant to check the mate the other player got.

    15:26 As a German I love how he pronounced "Zwischenzug" 👍🏻😂

    LEVY SAID MAGNUS IS THE BEST CHESS PLAYER THEN WATCH SOME BLUNDER COMPILATON

    شاه مات checkmate
    It means شاه -king -مات -died 😂

    Hmm…I didnt know to play Chess but after I saw your video I played it quite well.

    In Bosnian the word sāh māt ( its not spelled like that it's spelled like šah mat ) means checkmate hope that helps
