one thing to note about early queen attacks are its position and your pieces position. yeah the queen looks scary, but always remember the queen cant mate by itself. it always needs at least one piece to deliver a mate. you gotta check all the squares on which the queen can attack you and defend properly. while you're driving the queen away (because enemy is looking for potential mate) you found yourself developing pieces more and they just keep on moving the same piece again and again achieving nothing.

[@lupsik1]

Technically it can mate alone, where even a rook couldnt. I said „technically” to underline that it doesnt matter, and you wrote everything perfectly and not to be snarky.

The best piece of advice I got when I was new was just “look at every piece the queen attacks”. Incredibly obvious in theory, but just taking an extra second to be sure I’m not moving a key defender away from a piece meant queen attacks were suddenly easy to beat instead of terrifying

On concept #3, you missed the best move, which was also the topic of your video from two days ago. Move the knight attacking the queen results in a discovered check and the knight is blocking the queen instead of checking with the bishop.

[@matthewm5066]

They can block with the queen though

[@liamlynch9460]

The queen can just come back and block the check, so there is no threat on their queen though

[@b-reyer8252]

@@Mileschad Yeah but you're down 2 pawns and 99% of the time it isn't a good idea to trade queens when you have a more active and attacking position

[@Chris-87]

I like how people think they know more than masters lol. That's not a great move because white plays Qd2 and you lose a lot of your attack. Bg4 is absolutely brutal. If Ke1, black plays Nxc2++ (mate). If Kd2, then black plays Nf5+, with the discovery now, white can't block with the queen. If white blocks the check with f3, Nf3, Ne2, or Bd2, then black captures with the knight and has a discovered attack with the queen, all of which are way more devastating

[@thomasnewton2935]

Move the knight in front of the white bishops pawn on the left side. You take a pawn and when he blocks with the queen, you take it with queen for checkmate.

[@anantyadav3528]

7:01 the best move here is to bring the knight to f5 and that would be a discovered attack to king while at the same time queen would be under attack of that knight we just moved

[@ShazanKhan1]

[@panzerkampfwagenviiimaus2187]

As someone who almost always does early queen attacks, this was a very insightful video, and perhaps I may try some other strategies.

[@ImfrAfreak]

It only works against 500 or less elo players, people play counter play after that.

[@aarusharya5658]

I really think you should stop playing early queen attacks. Above 500-800 elo, you will start losing almost every game.

[@jofieji5312]

Your channel is so awesome. I sometimes take a break from chess because I can’t find that many people to play with. Every time I get back into it I come back to your channel. Love the way you approach things. 🔥🔥🔥

[@DumBot0987]

7:03 you can play knight f5 taking/trading the opponents queen, taking assuming they move the king in check and trading if they block the check with the queen

[@Cupix_]

I was thinking the same

[@johnthompson5335]

So refreshing to see someone get right to the damn point and outline the strategy from the jump.

[@Keyacom]

At 7:02, I think Nf5+ is also a good move. White's king is in a discovered check, and their queen is under attack as well

[@Anthony_LaVigna]

then theyd play Qd2, then youd have to move your knight out of the way of the attack from the pawn on e4, Nd4 gives up the knight, Nd6 causes a fork on the knights from the pawn, and anything else opens black up to a potential queen trade that prevents castling

[@quasiZote]

​​​​@@Anthony_LaVigna what about Nxe4 and after Qxd8+ simply Bxd8. the knight then threatens a fork on f2 resulting in your opponent Ke1. you're still able to longcastle and have more pieces developped. 1 pawn down at the cost of a better position. edit: to be clear; 1. e4 e5 2. Qh5 Nf6 3. Qxe5+ Be7 4. d3 Nc6 5. Qg3 Nd4 6. Qxg7 Rg8 7. Qh6 d5 8. Kd1 dxe4 9. dxe4 Nf5+ 10. Qd2 Nxe4 11. Qxd8+ Bxd8 12. Ke1

[@NoticeDesign]

They just move queen D2 and you've got a queen exchange. I like B3 better for the discovered check and you get the rook.

[@user-rc1hn]

4:34 Also in this situation, there is a fork with knight. (Knight X C2, that move forks Queen and Rook same time. It forces the King to move, because they can't eat the knight in any way, this way you both get a free queen and your opponent loses the right to castling.)

[@kzkaa.]

If your king isn't in check, then this would be a nice tactic.

[@dagmawitsegaye5971]

i was thinking that myself. that would've been spectacular.

[@dagmawitsegaye5971]

it wasn't though.

[@viytalic9049]

Even if you was in check, you'd eat the queen and be gobbled up by a pawn before you could even get the rook. I'm confused on why they'd have to move the king if the knight was at C2 as it can't reach E1

[@meltedspaceogd123]

It's called capture or take, not "eat"

[@Elipsis150]

This helped me so much. Just played a game where this exact thing happened. I counter attacked his Queen to where he eventually lined up the Queen behind the bishop on the white diagonal, and I made the knight move you mentioned sacrificing the pawn. He took the pawn putting my king in check, I moved the Queen up to get out of check, he realized his Queen was under attack so he moved it to the dark square, thus hanging the bishop so I was able to capture it with my king.

[@mud_rocker]

A few minutes after watching I played against someone who did the same queen opening as shown in the video. I applied what I learned and got a checkmate in 13 moves!

[@clutchplays9587]

U have to defend also not just develop

[@antienjoys]

congrats :)

[@RobokiYT]

At 7:07, better move would have been Nf4 as there is discovered check and you win queen

[@Outcastsage9033]

They can play Qd2 which blocks check and offers a trade of queens

[@Zamiroh]

I always love it when I see early queen attacks. I am usually between 1300 and 1400, so it is quite rare. But when I do get it, I can usually get a decent position. Opponents in my range usually will know the common counters, including getting your knight to d4. Usually they will position either a pawn or knight to defend that square.

[@airtylerb]

Thanks for the info, I’m at 450 elo and I like using the wayward queen to put pressure on my opponent and catch them off guard. I’m at a level where it works half the time and now I know how to recognize when it’s not working and recover before it’s too late.

Decades ago, during my college years, I played a game of chess with a fellow student, a girl who'd never fail to let a moment pass within which she would remind anyone nearby how smart she was. So, I started the game. I brought my queen out early, captured an unprotected pawn, but managed to get it hung-up on B7. I resisted thoughts that I had blundered and managed to develop a really strong middle attack with my other pieces directed at her un-castled king. Obsessed with freeing my queen, I suddenly realized the only safe move I had for it was to E7: checkmate. Completely unplanned. To the explosion of laughter from those watching, I realized instead of a win it was an escape (which I said to her), and I never wanted to play her again.

7:02 i think you can move knight to b3 instead? to threat and capture the rook, yea you may ended up to trade queen, but you get a rook which is better than the knight in many occasion.

I saw a video of other guy but this one is better by far far far. You rock man thx

[@elcads9864]

Thanks for this info., i usually would bring out my Queen too to defend against Queen. Your strategy is better, I'll do this.

7:05, because you'd be forcing check, the King would move to the left, or down one square. If they moved to the left, that's forcing the fork all over again. If they moved down one, you could still go for the pawn, because that would open up the Queen head on to check again. If you don't want to lose your knight, you can simply move him to a spot that could also force check from Queen, while keeping pressure on/ guarding other pieces/being guarded.

On 7:01 it's better for a knight on F5 as it's a check to king then simply knight captures queen

[@fionnhughes508]

At 7.01 in the video knight to f5 will reveal an attack on the king and when the king moves you win the queen if they don't block with the queen or if the can't in your position

[@mkblive-mp3db]

In 7:02 in your video, Nf5 is a good move because it is a check from the queen and the knight is attacking the queen!
