    My favourite international grandmaster, Levy Nakamura.

    really wondering how many dislikes his videos get

    I love this, motivational and interesting to see not only several teams of very strong players working together and learning/teaching each other, but also to see the perspective of one of those players and to hear what was instructional while playing. Stoked for this tournament

    Just imagine the team of Carlsen and Hikaru together 😅

    That really cool you guys got time to play chess together like this. Really hope you guys do more. =]

    This was an awesome video, loved hearing how you and Hikaru worked together

    So HIkaru has to play with the handicap of having to listen to Levy while he plays? 😛

    I'm so happy, that i was also thought of the move queen to e5 when the knight moved in Armageddon. It is a complete fluke that i guess that move but to be the best move I am speechless and i love chess and got into it because of your gameplay. ❤❤

    Levy does one thing with Hikaru, and he just instinctively starts drawing arrows like him

    Can’t believe they beat the goat Eric Hansen

    23:24 why not e4 after Rd8.
    It's not just a fork but a square that becomes defended 5 times. If Ne3 to attack the queen you could do Qa4, sacrificing the knight by Qxa5 so that then you had one less defender to play Bb4.

    I love how he says he is a"A Little bit better than me:" to Hikaru

    It’s honestly impressive that Levy has so much self-confidence for a guy that was so clearly bullied in school growing up

    This seems fun! Can I join? I choose Stockfish 16 as my partner our average Elo doesn’t even reach IM level, I’ll probably be beaten by the higher Elo teams but hey it’s all fun and games… This will be totally fair!

    Love this video. Levy + hikaru + team battle – we need more of this!

    is this some kind of implementation of nerfing hikaru by adding levy?

    Levy, that girl who popped up at tge beginner of your video said i can find her on bumble but i cant please help

    You totally contributed, Levy! Tag team was 👌🏽

    I say you earned the right to call the next opening/defense. Tell Hikaru.

    This whole tournament is just levy trying to trick hikaru into playing a 1v2, and he actually fell for it!

    I discovered that playing the vienna gambit without fxe5 and just playing Nf3 is pretty good and most of your opponents might not know this line because it's not really played that much

    The A5 move reminds me of “I saw rook a5”😂

    Key Moments by Agent Gold AI

    I enjoyed these two they played well and had good conversations

    Do more of this!! This game was super exciting.

    how do you see so many moves in advance how can I learn or practice this.

    Hikaru is not as good as stockfish, but he's still a damn good engine. Nice finds Levi!

    What a Self Inflating Title!
    Horrible… Your Head is Getting Too Big Without The Laurels!!

    id love to see a team chess tournament at the high level. Would be amazing

    Hikaru in the opening to Levy: "You can play whatever you want here."

    Hikaru in his head: "Hmm, takes, takes, takes, takes, there, takes, takes, ah mate in 157 at worst I'll let Levy pick a move so he feels included."

    Guess they lost bc theyre not subscribed to gotham 😢

    Jk I found this to be very fun. Hansen and van Foreest are both very excellent players. More unique chess formats like this one please!

    This might be the only way Levy ever becomes and grand master.

    I really enjoy the discussion between players. Seeing things I would never see. This improves my game alot

    Can someone who’s good at chess explain why they can’t take the queen with the rook at 29:10?

    Is this just not two grandmasters playing against each other while having to explain all their moves to their IM teammates? 😂😂

    Kramnik had a seizure after reading that title

    this is as interesting if not more than watching the computers battle.

    Looool teamed with Hikaruuuuuu. Hikaru went for content and chose you

    Mr. Levy can you cover some or of of the Botez games at the Prague open, Dina Belankaya too
    . Please 🙏

    I LOVED THIS! 2v2 is such a unique idea for chess!
