Wei Yi is like that one random airbender you used to chill with but disappeared for 100 years but then when the world needed him most, he returned.

[@juancarlosavila1853]

That's a cool Nickname, the return of the airbender.

[@meekaboi]

Good on Wei Yi for finally showing his class in a major tournament. It's ridiculous that he's been considered a has-been but is still only 24 years old!

[@theo7371]

Yeah, he was considered the Ben Simmons of chess. Let's see if he turns it around and realizes his true potential.

[@maryamshakeeb2521]

It makes sense cuz he was 2700+ at 17!!

[@shangao5028]

[@misterfox8061]

@@maryamshakeeb2521 He actually reached 2700 at 15 years old! Even more impressive

[@randomyoutubehandle1]

he does look way older than 24

[@kevinzheng6735]

Wei Yi started college at Tsinghua University (Top 2 in China) School of Economics and Management in 2018. He's probably focusing more on school work in the past few years. Great to see him back at the top level.

[@LinZhao57]

He's got to be one of those that don't really study yet getting full marks.

[@shayneoneill1506]

Its a smart move. Even top level chess doesn't really pay well unless you've got a lot of side channels to monetize it (Ie Magnus and sponsorship deals, or Hikaru and youtube income), and that hasn't always been an option for chinese players. And he hasn't yet proven he can hit the Magnus or Hikaru level of fame. So having a plan B is a smart move (And chess dudes usually are great at math, so a business qualification is definately a sound move)

[@ChristianHegele]

I like this thematic continuity between the Tata Chees tourney recaps and now a Wei Yi deep dive.

[@bauerch.]

I've actually been following Wei Yi not long after I started playing chess (3 years ago). Unfortunately, I started following him at a time when he never played and was just gone from the chess scene. I started following him due to his attacking style of chess. You can call any top player like Hikaru, Magnus, Ian an aggressive or tenacious player, but not Wei Yi, He's literally an embodiment of the word attack in chess. I became a fan after watching his win vs. Alireza in the junior blitz 2019. He and Boris Spassky are the two players I would call my favourites. I'm happy he's finally getting the attention he deserves and Him finally getting back to the chess scene. I'm looking forward to his future games!

[@relaxingsounds2570]

Its impossible to calculate something complicated as this game if you are not Super GM so many slightly different moves and yet you totally mess the entire position, this got to be one of most complex attacking game I watch in year or two. Even if some of the moves was forced maybe 5 or 6 still hard to see in such depth.

[@noidph]

Wow. What a game! Thanks for making this video about Wei Yi, Levy ! One thing I noticed about his games during the Tata Steel tournament is his imagination and creativity -- esp. in the opening (throwbacks and/or sacrifices galore!). This man is truly a genius! Can't wait to watch him in future games! He could be the next world champion from China!

[@TheMosayat]

This is the type of game where I realize I will never ever be a chess master like these 15 year olds

[@randys2669]

Hearing Levy say "Skibidi Toilet" did more psychological damage than all the blunders in the "How to lose at chess" series combined.

[@AP-wc1kf]

Wei Yi is like that cousin your mom keeps on comparing you to.

[@TheShamansQuestion]

Awesome video! It was super instructional for Yi's style of play and how to think like a GM but I also love that you did a close study on a chess player to follow-up Tata Steel and who is probably oft forgotten/lesser known compared to the household names. Please do more on the other players.

[@mawash0309]

Levy breaks the algorithm every time he mentions Magnus along with Hikaru

[@SacTheQueen]

If you are smart, you should play chess. If you are very very smart, you should quit chess.

[@valimaa1006]

I seriously appreciate that you actually focus on someone else than Magnus. I don't mind if Magnus is 50% of your content, but 90% is ridiculous. Seeing these latest videos is so refreshing.

[@u.v.s.5583]

Had Magnus played at Tata steel, Levy would make videos "He won again," "Magnus just broke chess" and "The GOAT just got even more GOAT."

c4 was the second best move with M9. Qf7, which Wei Lee played gets M8. It takes a while for Stockfish to calculate M8. Later, Wei Lee had an M4 opportunity with g4+, but did the M10 option.

'Gem of the chess world' is a very well said phrase. After watching his immortal game in 2015, I really want to see more of him in action and even held the notion that he would one day become the world chess champion. That is something left to be seen as at his age, it is still technically possible,. But for the time being, we can only wait unabatedly while enjoying the masterpiece churn out by him.

How Wei Yi calculated the position for about 15 moves ahead after the move Nd5 reminds of the game that Garry Kasparov played a long time ago where he sacrificed the rook on d4 against Veselin Topalov and he also just like Wei Yi calculated for 15 moves ahead. INSANE!!!

The best 23 mins of analysing Wei Yi's gameplay!! 👏👏 Also i couldn't believe Wei Yi was playing against another GM whose last name is *Batista* !

[@wyattseals3251]

When black had only 3 moves and the only one not leading to mate was Ke6, I couldn't figure out why the evaluation jumped so much... like if those are the only moves, why was it equal before? So I ran analysis on the position and found out Stockfish just didn't realize yet how winning the position really was for white. So that makes TWO TIMES in this game that Wei Yi found a winning line before Stockfish did. Wow!
