    Yall gotta stop it with the meaningless Hikaru hate. It's all just friendly fire. Great video btw!

    Calling the United Kingdom just England is both green and offensive.

    I bet Alex could beat the crap out of Hikaru in a boxing match too!

    Wtf the botez sisters are Canadian!? Well Canada loves you! (And so do i)(and yes I am Canadian too)

    Hikaru just told the truth, you just have a lot of SIMPS 😂😂😂

    sorry if this is a dumb question but i am fairly new to chess and wondering why at 6:34 you couldn't just go Queen to H8 for mate?

    wait wait wait
    why did you queen trade why didnt you just chack mate

    how do y'all not realise this is clickbait, they're all friends and she's just using the situation as a smart influencer would. simping is blinding a lot of y'all

    0:26 When I watch this I said to my self: wow.. she put a good effort in the room to make it look like someone with physiologic issues lives there, with the mirror in the floor, that weird couch and many covering fabrics to show an old house vibe.
    Then the color is back and I realize this is actually her current room XD

    Levi better. but you guys are ok ig 🙄🙄🙄

    Hikaru is a great player. But he is a total narcissists.

    Well, hikaru mostly loses every single match against magnus. He must learn to respect others. By the way that was a gg alex💕

    it ok dont be sad. you are nice girl and very good player

    I need more videos like this, this helped me improve!

    Hikaru is the type of chess player I wouldn’t get along with and make wanting to play not fun. Botez and levy videos make it fun

    You used the wrong flag…. You used the Union Jack for England which is Incorrect. Whoops. The English Flag is St Georges Cross

    You could tell Hikaru clearly was salty about not winning the award 😂

    He’s not wrong, but you’re definitely right. 😘

    People don’t seem to understand that Hilary said this during his disrespect speed run. He was putting that persona on lol

    Ha ha, well done. Hikaru has eaten crow from time to time for sure, but he's also caused others the same thing.
    In this case, I think he was referring to the future, not past (in which Levy of course dished up some crow to Naka) but I really don't fault Hikaru for saying that. But I do fault him for the condescending way he said it preface or not. The correct way is not to preface it or smile or state as he did, unfortunately. Here is the correct way to say it: first, you give a complement, and then you say it using the words 'I think' or 'I believe', or 'it's probably unlikely'.
    You don't say stuff like that as if it were fact… because first, it's condescending and presumptive, and second, it's rude, and unnecessary.
    Apparently etiquette isn't Naka's first priority, but he could improve more in that area for sure.
    Nice video, btw. 👍

    I really enjoyed this video! I'd love to see more of these in-depth explanations from both of you! Well done, Alex!

    If not for Levy, I would barely watch chess on twitch or youtube. Although I love Hikaru, chess streamer of the year doesn't mean best chess streamer. These kind of comment are not very smart and kinda unwelcome.

    I'm sure Hikaru has more losses against Magnus than Levi or you.

    Hikaru is a bit rude, it's not the first time he's made those kinds of derogatory comments. Maybe he doesn't realize how, which is something he should work on, not having such a high ego.

    P.d: the character of " how i met your mother " is based on you , alex is robin!!

    ARCHERS!!!! Let your arrows fall on the enemies of botez and I, like rain. KILL THEM!!! (swings battle axe for the visual queue)

    It would've sounded a lot more impressive if she left the Canadian part out of her accomplishments

    Anyone who is playing just to win has already lost…

    Awesome video, Alex. I really enjoyed the story.

    He’s just super competitive, same way Michael Jordan can be too psychotic as well. It’s not right, but I can appreciate it.

    I don't understand how Hikaru is so popular when he's so incredibly unlikable. Yes he's good at chess, but to me having a good personality is far more important for streamers.

    alex if you have a problem with hikaru or anyone i'll gladly beat them up. i may have to hire a few guys depending on who it is, but i'm pretty sure I can take hikaru 😂

    I don't play chess, but I am glad that I stumbled upon chess content creators over the past few years. I enjoy hearing game breakdowns between watching carpenters make perfect dovetails.

    People like the Botez sisters or Levy maybe wouldn't win that much chess tournaments, but their great talent for creating chess related content compensates for it. 😎
    That being said I pretty like Hikaru most, when he disrespects others. 😂

    Isn't Canada rated 1200? I think you gotta play in the US to get a proper rating.
