    It would help to explain which colour is to play before posing the question.
    I'm guessing (now) there's some convention with chess challenges that it's always white to play – but laymen watching youtube shorts like me don't know this.

    Thanks for the content, hope this feedback helps.

    You Underestimate my power to blunder mate in 1!!!!

    It easier to checkmate with extra queen than bishop

    "Can you find the Desperado sacrifice here" – not showing whose move is currently, and cutting off the top of the board

    In the last one, he took a bishop for free, had he just taken the queen he would get the free queen. It's worse isn't it, unless i am missing something

    Thought it was black to move in the last one

    For everyone dumb out there saying why trade queen for bishop look at both queen they both under attack if you take the queen they take back with pawn so,take the bishop with queen then its a check black force to take then you take the queen now COUNT THE MATERIAL

    But levy if we simply take the queen we will win 9 points of material but if we do desperado we win only 3 points

    I knew the concept, but didn't realize the applications possible! Very cool

    Oh, this is actually my playstyle. Screw the common play, let's burn everything, but take more

    Why does white needs to trade the queen for a bishop? 💀

    My thought my queen to f3. That way if the black queen takes the rook or bishop. You can just take the queen

    I don't understand why we sacrificed the queen in Levy's example… We could've just taken the enemy queen with the room without getting our queen killed for a bishop…

    Wait i dont get why that wueen was in a desparado? Wasn't Queen f4 or queen h5 a better move?

    Weren't the last two examples a ,,zwischenzug" ???

    Damn i didnt ever think about this kind of sacrifices, Nice!

    This is something you don't need to learn the name of. Its just something you know, you know when you've been playing chess for some time at 1800 elo

    Desperate people will not watch this video

    And that is why you shpuld be careful with using danger levels

    Or play H5 and if he takes the rooke you take his queen. Alternatively he moves his queen away and you keep your rooke and queen for another turn

    ….wasn't the black queen just hanging with no attack on the white queen tho?

    i dont feel desperate but i do feel like a plastic bag drifting through the wind wanting to start again

    i thought in example 3 its black to play and found Qxg2

    Why didn’t rook just take the queen?

    I seriously didnt see last one💀 anyways thanks for teaching

    instruction unclear, proceeding to sing despacito to distract opponent

    I think is black move and i capture the white rook

    I thought i was black on the last one🧍‍♂️

    You didn’t tell me “white to play” and I still got it. Am I a genius? Or are you a good teacher? 😁

    I definitely did not think of queen takes on f5, tehehehe 😭💀💀💀

    Can't you just take the queen and not sacrifice your own? Correct me if I'm wrong.

    me looking for the solution for black like an idiot

    i thought gotham tell me to do desperado on black queen to white bishop
