I Didn't Know Knights Could Do This!!!!

[@V305G]

I understand why Levy’s channel is much more popular but Chess Vibes is miles better in quality and severely underrated.

[@sammarks9146]

Yeah, Levy's got the amped-up entertainment value, Nelson's got a great educational pace. (Don't get me wrong, Levy's got some great educational stuff, but the energy gets the clicks)

[@V305G]

@ I feel you. I’m just not into his energy level and he’s too fast paced

[@ÉdouardBrasseur]

I like Alessia Santeramo alot too

[@hardybryan]

@@V305G Yeah, Levy is expecting you take pay for his courses if you want a real lesson. I'm not mad at it, make your money, but his videos are advertising and entertainment. I actually prefer his videos like one I saw today doing a history lesson on Nezhmetdinov, whom I admit I hadn't heard of or had forgotten about if I had. His energy works great for telling a compelling story, less so for rapidly explaining chess moves.

[@doublestarships646]

It's true but comparing them or trying to diminish the other isn't good for anyone. Levy just happens to hog the algorithm and got a great early start at the spotlight. Chess Vibes can keep his channel a nice safe space from the world of streamer chess.

[@Kelly-i5z9g]

Two brilliant moves in a game is rare enough, you throw in the same piece and the same square 😮 Well done!!

[@sh0ker]

Nelson: "Bishops are slightly better than knights" The knights: *I am about to end this man whole's career"

4 exclamation marks in the title to reference the 2 brilliant moves. Brilliant.

u said that was brilliant because of the brilliant moves in chess. Excellent

The best chess videos on KZbin

[@himynameisdavenicetomeetyou]

The first brilliant move seemed pretty straightforward (don't know if I would have found it in game, but as a known puzzle, easy enough). The second one, even though you said it was coming, you said which knight it was, and there was clearly only one square that it might go to for a brilliancy, for the life of me, I still could not figure out why/find the bishop continuation. Like most slick lines, it looks so obvious in hindsight, but really is a clever tactic (forcing sac to free up the square for your new attacker). Your videos are so wildly instructive.

[@xipleadthe5th]

That knight was a true warrior. Boldly putting himself in direct line of enemy fire for the cause! Not once but twice!!

[@NJDJ1986]

Nelson makes 2 brilliant moves with the knights! Gotham chess: *laughs in 3 brilliant moves with THE ROOOOOOOOK!*

[@jaideepshekhar4621]

Video?

[@TottenvilleMiddleSchool]

Awesome story! It’s so unique and iconic to have two sacrifices from the same knight on the same square.

[@etherealessence]

That was a beautiful way to tactically defend the knight on e6! wow... i'm going to have to remember that

[@QDWhite]

Still waiting for t-shirts that say “Get forked!!”…

[@andrewbennett5911]

Fabulous game Nelson , thanks for sharing it , well done !

[@Monstralian]

Nelson: there is an advanced tactic there . Me : takiing the stuck useless dark bishop that doesn’t do anything undoubeling the opponent pawn and loosing the game 🙂

Yo. Love your videos keep up the good work

[@rotatingmind]

If we need a proof of the beauty of chess, here we have it.

[@trixmtll1393]

i dont know if it was brilliant but the best knight i ever had was on f5, while the black king was on h8. the black and white g pawn were gone, the h and f pawns for black were still on their starting squares. black had the rooks stacked on g8 and g7 and his queen was like on h6,or maybe h5, i remember he had to use a tempo for is queen to be on dark squares. my queen was on d4 and i was queen side castled. and the position allowed for my knight to take the rook on g7, jump back, force the second rook to block, take the second rook, move again and force the queen in front of the king. i believe i had a rook on g1 but the pin from the queen along the dark squares kept black rooks pinned on g7 and forcing the issue plus the risk of back rank mate since i had access to the open file with my rook.

[@alexandraison6429]

Love these videos Nelson! Although I do love the love videos it’s just as exciting to hear your play by play post game!!! 🎉🎉🎉 exceptional knight you had there!

[@Adamiscrackedmyguy]

4:16 I KNEW IT

[@peterpauley]

Nice, thanks for sharing.

[@mkn2929]

Very nice tactics! The only thing (and I cannot find the game unf.) was a complete beat down I was taking and my opponent was not taking pieces for some unknown reason, but they had my king running for cover constantly and somehow escaped by the skin of its teeth over and over, until finally I realized that if I could get just one pawn move in I had mate...that's what eventually happened! It was so unreal how they literally missed mate at least 25 times by not capturing and delivering benign checks by using the wrong piece! It was surreal. Unfortunately I don't have it, must have had an old account that I used and the email associated was unused and deleted by Hotmail so I cannot get it, you would have been besides yourself! Lol I think that one must have worked hard at giving me chances, probably humorously doing it or was a GM that was drunk and fooling around. Ah well, wish I had the evidence, was a hoot and delivering mate via pawn was great as always :) Thanks for the great content! 👍

[@VihaGowda-z3m]

This looks so much like the pawns' attack in a jobava-london game

I was wondering what the other lines looked like. Instead of Kc7, Qd8 seemed like the most testing.

[@МихаилСвятловский]

Well congrats, but I don't believe it a bit. Isn't Bd8 a much safer answer to Qe8+?

[@МихаилСвятловский]

And also an explanation mistake: not taking the knight (the second time) would be ok despite the fork, as white queen is also hanging. The real unspoken reason is that king has no squares

[@christopherheckman7957]

@@МихаилСвятловский I guess Nelson didn't catch that. (I did, though.)

[@christopherheckman7957]

The analysis gives White +6 after ... Qd8 and +8 after ... Bd8 (and +11 after ... Kc7).

I think you just click on the channel, and there should be a tab saying "join."

[@blunderghostchess]

Go to the Chess Vibes home page and right next to the Subscribe button is a Join button, click on that! :)

[@remus_lupin]

I've seen the subscribe button becomes a join button, once you subscribe, if they have whatever join is for (I presume memberships). I assume that's it. Not sure if it does that on all ways to watch KZbin, though. Also, sometimes Member videos pop up as recommendations (often not marked as such), & clicking them takes you to a join membership page, with price info, tier unlocks & stuff.

The only thing that reminds me of this is one of Levy's recent games where he got 3 brilliant rook moves, 2 of which were on the same square by the same rook. It should be on his second channel for anyone interested.

That might have been a game where he sacrificed THE ROOOOOOK ... by moving to an empty square.
