    Gotham, please check out the chessGPT puns. They are pretty funny

    great vid, instructional content on how to get to a certain rank is always fun to watch!

    day 2 of asking levy to yell “THE ROOOOOOOOOOOOOK”

    I have a question for you chess players out there. At around 16:20 why wasn’t bishop g5 a good move, because it attacks the queen while defended by the knight, right?

    I’m only 1130. How to get to 1200 tho is play play play. You start seeing a lot of the same stuff and know how to play it. Watch videos on stuff that’s really getting you. And look for checks. Look for checks. Look for checks. A lot of people around our range can go from a winning position to mated all because of checks and making one blunder. I just played a game I was -8 and mated the guy 7 moved later.

    Instructions unclear queen was blundered in move 3

    You asked whether this was a good new type of video. I think you should make many more of these, it was very entertaining, interesting, hooking and highest of all educating. Thank you Levy, keep it up!

    Your subscriber count is blowing up like crazy every day! Congrats Levy.

    As a hardstuck 150 ELO, this was very enlightening. I enjoyed this video, please make more of them.

    I was rated 1113 before watching this video. Now, I’m still 1113 because it’s 11 pm and I’m not going to play any more chess until tomorrow. But I’m sure it will help

    Edit, I just won a bunch of games in a row and hit a new peak rating of 1144

    Thank you for sharing good chess content!!

    Todays stare was quite mesmerizing and jarring 9.7/10

    Subscribee he is on a road to 4 million subscribers.

    Loved this video 32:27 it was one of my favorites and I’ve been watching for about 5 months

    Day 7 of asking: Can you make a video about sveshnikov Sicilian

    Levy I just want to thank you for this daily video series.

    Thanks I was stuck at 1800 for 1 year thanks to you I am 1200

    Best vid ever. I watched thsi and my first game on after I played someone 150 elo higher than me. I came out rlly aggressive and got almost the excact same position as you where the bishops were staring at the castles king and the knight was on g5. This video might be what gets me out of the elo I’m stuck at. Thanks

    "The secret to beating players higher rated than you is to attack them. It's not to be defensive"
    I see you learned from your last go at a GM norm.

    All love and good vibes, just giving you a bit of shit.

    Im 2350 elo in blitz, but i still watch this video, cause its interesting when Levy talking about any chess stuff

    This is a great video of how to become a 1200-rated chess player and overcome it.

    Levy while this video was playing I had sex. Thank you for the background gameplay. 💯

    Nahh mate I don't want to go down 500 rating points

    Levy never clickbaits us,i can confirm i went from 1600 to 1200.

    Ive been struggling to beat 1200 bots consistently, so this vid was perfect for me, thank you! Looks like I need to focus on developing pieces and not blundering 😂

    Thanks Levy I am 750 and climbing fast. <3

    15:45 Levi said a few days ago that you have to take En Bassant as a tribute to the chess gods. You have failed your duty, Levi. Your grandmaster title shall now be stripped from you.

    Fun fact: the second game Levy played, he was exactly twice his opponents rating

    Just beat the Pal 1200 bot for the first time woohoo

    These are the people I dont find in my games lol. I find the 1800 rapid player whos just trying out blitz

    Noooo I do not. Have fell from 1400 to 1250 like twice in the last couple months.

    Levy really changed the game, every time I threaten the bishop in the London they rock back hoping I take to try to open up their rook, literally everyone

    I'm not sure if you would ever have the interest or the time, but I would totally watch videos of you playing other games if you made a secondary channel for such a purpose. Like video games or other board games, or anything really.

    I hit 1200 today and then I this video!

    Shout-outs to the Game 2 player for probably the most sensible chess play I’ve ever seen. I think that person could be GM material.

    Hey Levy, I got in to chess in August of last year for the first time and for the first few weeks I truly sucked but from mainly looking at your videos im around 1550 rapid. Your videos made me stick around and I enjoy chess more and more each month that goes by so I wanted to thank you. I also want to ask, at my level what should be my focus when it comes to practicing and improving? as of right now Im not sure how to really practice chess efficiently – if you had some advice on that would greatly appreciate it!

    Hit 1200 last week! I got blitz to 1190, now it’s 1115…

    I got my first brilliant move after watching this video 😤

    Love these types of videos 👍🏽👍🏽

    Me, A 340 elo reading the comments

    “… lost the pawn, pinned themselves, and blundered a fork. But that’s like- that’s life!”
