[@striatic]

These high intensity series recaps are fantastic. I tend to skip most of the more specific instructional videos since I rarely play and only casually against other untrained people, but I do know just enough now - in part due to your other strategy videos - to be impressed by the incredible plays these GMs make when you point them out. Add to that the inherent drama of an elimination series and I leave your videos immensely entertained.

[@ferchiew7027]

Thank you Levy for these amazing recaps! I always eat with your videos, cause when you publish them it is 13:00 here in Spain. It is now my routine.

[@nicdes5540]

Love the video as per usual ! Small upgrade I could suggest for next time, maybe update the full match score after every game you cover, it would give better context as to what is hapenning. At the crucial game where hikaru won a really long game you said at one point it was good for him since he was winning but us viewers didn't know that.
