[@iustinventaniuc8699]

@@JacobsKrąnųg 2k from 300 in a few hours? That's impossible. 300 is low even for a beginner that barely knows how the pieces move. And 2k is already close to fide master level. A genius wouldn't play like a 300 in the first place and someone that gets to 2k in a few hours has to be one of the smartest persons alive, if not the smartest to have ever lived.

On 200 ELO you don't even need to cheat, you can just use the Scholar's Mate, and win

[@Leyrann]

Nah, Scholar's Mate requires your opponent to have enough brain cells to know that you shouldn't blindly attack enemy pieces at every opportunity. If you go queen first, 200 elo will definitely attack it, if you go bishop first, there's a chance they'll attack the bishop with a pawn, and if they don't then you still have to put your queen out there and get a 50/50 chance whether they attack with the knight (giving you checkmate) or with the pawn (blocking the attack). Though I suppose you could move your queen to f3 and try again, in the latter case. I suspect this is also why it's called Scholar's Mate, by the way. It's the quickest mate that's designed to work against opponents who aren't completely braindead, but instead are simply unaware of the attack and don't have the presence of mind to see it when it happens. Other quick mates tend to have rather more negative names, such as the Fool's Mate.

3:00 I’d actually say that for a 200, not taking is their best strategy. This is because a 200 is not going to understand pawn structure well enough to know when to take vs when not too. In general, you should take with purpose, when there is a reason to take, but for someone this low elo they probably wouldn’t see a reason to take, so don’t. It’s better than the other end of the spectrum where a player will take any piece they can get their hands on without a second thought

placebo effect or it was in a mixed preparation with an opiate. paracetamol on its own doesn't do diddly squat, except destroy the liver in high doses

[@lulairenoroub3869]

Paracetamol? I think Americans call that tylenol. It's not gonna knock you down. You'll be lucky if it takes the edge off of a headache

[@1234macro]

I've been kinda losing interest in this channel for a while, but this video was pretty chill and had good vibes. Hope to see more of this style commentary in the future

[@BeeHammer14]

I love how Gotham knows us noobs so well, I would totally blunder that back rank mate.

[@sheikmanzoor5003]

We need more content like tricking two cheaters play each other which u did ages ago.

[@riccardozanoni2531]

yes!

[@thomasmeaney1846]

i had a 84% game the other day and I did make a huge blunder and lost my queen while I was on a constant conquest taking piece after piece

[@QueenAshe]

I never thought i’d laugh so hard in a chess video, until 17:12 happened

[@hyrulelord8019]

wen levy says he didn't want to loss his roock so he losses his roock maid me cry

[@Icehaan17]

thank you once again for clarifying that this was a stockfish cheater, and not a chess boxing cheater (like the referee in Andreas game) Also much love from nz ❤

[@Robi2009]

First game looked like 2 players who found out about chess yesterday...

[@davidboyd5021]

I disagree 0:24 😂

[@onxeb8331]

Motrin in USA Paracetamol in Czech Republic Doliprane in France

I like how you just don't castle when you're 200

[@ra2186]

17:51 I'm an 1100 in daily games and I definitely would've been mated. I had tunnel vision on the bishop sac because I was so focused on how can I finish this mate.

[@marcosmileo]

What are you talking about? I take paracetamol for everything...

[@BulbasaurLeaves]

What’s even the point of cheating at online chess? Gloating at strangers when you know you can’t compete fairly? I don’t see how that would be satisfying even for a dishonest person.

[@dombatten9424]

Bruh, u know ur bad at chess when you spot the move that is unguessable on your first shot because u think like a 200, but the go on to disregard it because you think it isn’t bad 5:04

[@notatranslationschannel8896]

I predicted the final knight move but didn't even see the checkmate risk of playing anything else

[@lomiification]

QE8 is nicer than QE7 because you're more protected from an accidental backrank mate

[@thatdudedevon]

bro I just wanted to say I have only been watching your videos a couple days ago and just started chess because of your videos. you have helped me already so much thank you for that

[@Kevbotomy]

As an 800, I have accidentally stumbled into both ends of the percentage range

[@Argiope92]

The beginning with the 200 ELO dude is close to how I play chess. Random nonsensical movements until I stumble into something that makes sense.

[@dimitriosdoulgeris4659]

The phrase "... because that's what noobs do" always kills me.

[@NoName-xc6cg]

Imagine being a happy noob playing a regular 200 game and seeing it here. Any game can end up on Levy's analysis board

[@newpgaston6891]

18:38 Honestly, no matter what the game, cheaters are always super obvious... It's the same thing with aimbotters in FPS games; If they were smart and only used the aimbot for 2 or 3 really important kills during the round, people wouldn't be as suspicious of them. But no, they use the aimbot for the entire round, killing 137 people in a row and then they get banned.

[@DsiakMondala]

I became hyper aware of rook mating my king when he is behind 3 paws like that. Childhood trauma.

[@jmth1974]

In these cases Stockfish should just put a computer instead of a human against players that go from 9 rating to 97 rating in span of a game or two.

[@Deniecu]

The earth is as flat as a cheeseboard, and as green as a red apple. Blue.

[@gamx_r9230]

I’m surprised the 200 knew engines exist. I had no idea how people cheat until I reached like 1000 or smth

[@itsCronch]

Cheater wasn't just the clown, they were the entire circus
