DON'T DO THIS TO YOUR KING!! | Glek, Pirc/Caro-Kann | GM Naroditsky's DYI Speedrun

The return of the king

[@AlexanderBrown77]

Revelation 19 KJV 👑 11 And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him _was_ called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war. 12 His eyes _were_ as a flame of fire, and on his head _were_ many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself. 13 And he _was_ clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God. 14 And the armies _which were_ in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean. 15 And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God. 16 And he hath on _his_ vesture and on his thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS. 1 Corinthians 15 KJV ✝️🩸 1-4

Very happy you are back! Its hard to describe how wonderful your videos are, whether its speedruns or other educational videos. You are one of the pillars in chess and hope you keep active ^_^ Keep being a great roll model for young and old alike.

[@HemBabuKarki-ue6tn]

Props to you

[@RobFraser]

My small way of saying thank you. We believe in you. You are the best chess coach many of us could ever have.

[@halfwarr8717]

Very happy you are back! I was terribly afraid you were going to let some bad actors keep your down, but you handled the whole thing with class.

[@yourtruelordandsaviour]

When the world needed him most, he returned.

[@russellthornhill4120]

You have carried yourself with dignity throughout this entire ordeal and no amount of slander or disingenuous remarks can tarnish what you have worked hard to build; a world class chess career, one of the greatest chess education resources in the world, and most important of all, your character. You are a good person and you have nothing to prove to anyone. Keep it up 💪🏻

[@Mark_e_moo]

I admire you, Danya. As a chess player and as a person. Keep up with the content creation, your videos are gold ❤

[@gtvvpt]

Love your stuff man. Sorry you've had to deal with all this nonsense and looking forward to the new speed run. From the bottom of my heart, really enjoy your videos and appreciate the effort you put into them.

[@MeritedMasterOfTheUSSR]

it hurts my soul seeing someone like danya getting so much hate because of stupid kramnik accusations

[@SpecialAgentBillMaxwell]

I know there are some other channels with more subscribers, but this is easily the best channel with respect to chess learning. I get something out of every game. Thank you, Danya.

[@rolettuce9654]

Really the subscriber counts are less important than the community he has built up. A lot of the larger channels have pretty toxic communities, but I haven't experienced much (if any) toxicity here.

[@tuckeyuk]

So happy to see a new speedrun video, thanks Danya!

[@jesuscruz836]

Danya, thank you for not stopping. I am in 100% support of you and what you are doing. 💯

[@waltsemrau4260]

Thanks for all the lessons over the years. This doesn’t even begin to cover it. Don’t let the haters get you down 😤

[@waltsemrau4260]

Grew from 900 to 1600 since I started watching

[@lendamusic]

Go Narodistky!!! We love it! Bla bla bla to all haters you are the BEST online teacher/instructor, you have the BEST explanations and you exemplify your thought process well to all of us, we stand by your side!!

[@Sread95]

Thanks for all that you do to help us improve at chess Danya! I've learnt so much from you and find your speedruns really entertaining. You are humble, measured and eloquent... a true professional. It's great to see you back :D

[@anguswlchisholm]

Welcome back brother. Nobody blinked an eye.

[@hughlamarque6414]

Comfortably the best communicator of chess concepts online. Keep it up!

[@JeremyWalkeriHiD]

Thanks for all the incredible content. So glad you came out of that horrible episode in one piece. You handled yourself with incredible dignity💙

[@rk2oo23]

Danya you're the best chess content creator out there. A small token of appreciation for all that you've taught me. Ignore Kramnik and his miserable, pathetic clique of online trolls. They're not worth your consideration. Thank you, and delighted you're back!

[@somasundaramsankaranarayan4592]

Can you briefly explain what's up with danya and kramnik?

[@mitchellmartin]

I rarely comment on anything, but your poise in the face of that clown's ignominious and protracted self-destruction into McCarthyism is a sterling example of your incorruptible character. It's a shame that you ever had to face these kinds of allegations, but hopefully the world will see VK for who he is after this.

[@caballitodetotora7087]

It is great to see you back Danya! Keep the amazing work, I have learned and continue to learn a lot from your educational videos ❤

[@akicestmoi]

Hi Danya, I usually do not post any comment, but I have been a long time follower of your channel and I particularly love your speed run series. Just to show my support and my deep gratitude for your content, especially after what you’ve been through. Whenever I have some doubts about opening theory etc, I go back and watch your previous episodes, review theories, look and try to reproduce what you did, and it made me improve my chess. Do not let random ex-world champ having the best of you, just because he does not understand online blitz chess is a totally different sport from classical, and just rage against everyone. Thanks again for coming back, looking forward to it!

[@Arthur_Frederick]

Glad to see you back creating content again, and even better to see that the events over the past month or so haven’t dampened your contagious love for the game.

[@johnharman3442]

Thanks!

[@agileduck5773]

Glad you're back.

[@xpychicken]

Welcome back, Sensai Danya!

[@benbirdsong5400]

Danya - I can’t stress this enough. Thank you so much. I love chess because of you, I am better at chess because of you. Thank you so much for encouraging the passion of chess in all of us and for the person you are. We are with you 100 percent

[@spodule6000]

Welcome back!

[@c.c.1197]

I am old father of 2 and I felt for you. I am really happy to see you again and with renewed energy, dear Sensey. Respect.

[@jamiewoodhouse6238]

Hope you’re doing well; it’s brilliant to see you back posting on KZbin Daniel. Your content is massively appreciated! Thank you!

[@ramonsk]

Danya, thank you for persevering. You are the best chess content creator / educator that I know and have been following for the last year. keep up with the great work. Don’t let other bad actors push you down, focus on the things you can control and in the support you have from this community. Again, thank you!

[@lewismccurrach7083]

Fantastic videos, always makes my day

[@vabulisedgars7400]

Thanks

[@KhalilMuhammad]

Gives me joy to see you streaming again. ❤

[@ImDengler]

It's genuinely so warming to see all the donations and support in the comments. Not to do the classic parasocial online relationship thing but Danya really is one of the nicest, most genuine, and most generous with his content output of any content creator I've seen anywhere, let alone in chess. We're so blessed to have him. It lowkey kinda broke my heart to see what he's been going through recently, so glad he's back and in good form.

[@wassernymphe]

It's difficult to not get a teeny tiny parasocial when the person in question is just super super nice, so you're good bro 😅

[@madmanonsticks]

These speedruns are always a highlight of my day when they come out. Not just because they are incredibly informative (they are), but because your enthusiasm for the game is inspiring and charming. Thanks for your hard work and quality content!

[@johnnyedemagboado4742]

Welcome back Sensei, just played my first tournament against 12 of my country's strongest players and I placed 6th. Thanks for your teachings. The only way to go from here is up

[@samhamfast]

I do not live online, so I have no idea at all what’s happened. Suffice it to say that I greatly appreciate all of your content. It is the very best that I found on KZbin. Thank you so much and welcome back (from whatever it was/is).

[@arleyantes9321]

I wish someone would post a brief comment with the context for all of this. I'd guess it has something to do with the childish accusations that have been thrown around.

[@wsleppy4699]

Vladimir Kramnik cant cope with being irrelevant and the weakest living world champ by far. So now he creates drama by accusing and the best online players in the world at cheating. And Russians gobble it up bc they are salty they haven't been relevant at the top since before Magnus hit puberty lmao.

[@RG001100]

Recently, Kramnik was making accusations that Naroditsky cheats in chess, going so far as to make hours of videos about it. (Last year, Kramnik accused Hikaru of cheating online). Kramnik is widely respected as a former world champion; so, his words carried some weight, even at the top level, despite how spurious his accusations were. Danya tried to discuss this reasonably with Kramnik, but Kramnik's responses all seemed to be in bad faith.

[@drunkenhobo8020]

​@@wsleppy4699The funny thing is, there was a poll during the Russian debate that Kramnik and Naroditsky had and 2/3 of them sided with Danya. That shows just how delusional Kramnik is being. A Russian hero lost the debate to the American.

[@crucifiedthief]

@@RG001100 Well that's a relief. I was worried it was a health issue, or family problem, perhaps a death. DN is such a cool guy, glad he's ok.

So happy to have you back

[@WilsonDK100]

We got you, because you are a decent and honourable person. Trolls and haters prone in on exactly that. You're also one of the best content creators across all digital platforms.

[@amirrezah-nb8qd]

So glad you're back Danya! Just by watching your commentaries, my rating went up from 400-500 to nearly 2000. And that’s without even actively trying to learn chess or dedicating significant time to it. You're amazing! Thank you so much.

[@hunterellison1]

Thank you Danya! We are grateful to have you!

[@timbland-q8d]

So good to see you back Danya. You are solely responsible for most of my chess growth, I'm so grateful for you and your content. I will always be a supporter. Thank you ♥️

[@jakeisrain]

I am so incredibly happy to see you back!!! Watching you handle the past month has been incredibly inspiring. It's really difficult to deal with people attacking you in bad faith, but you have just consistently responded with such unassailable logic and reason and candor. I feel like I've learned so much by seeing how you responded to people with clearly negative intentions and it genuinely has made me a better person. And now that you're back, I might even get a little better at chess :)

[@mehdiSupp]

What happened ?

[@Tburt-mx5kg]

you are a very naive man.

I appreciate how you break down your thought process in each moment and push us to also think deeper. I've learned so so much in this space and I'm deeply grateful! sending so much love and support.

[@tommeyer3871]

I'm glad you're back with excellent speedrun videos. Even though there's stilll a plethora of older videos to watch and rewatch new videos are much appreciated and never taken for granted. Your content is still getting better everytime (one can even notice how you improve at predicting your opponents next move across levels :D) and this Pirc-style game in particular holds true value for fighting these types of set ups. Best of luck in your upcoming endeavors in terms of Blitz Championship, commentating gigs and all the wonderful educational content across platforms. I truly hope you recovered well from the strain of these last weeks.
