LEVY IN THE FINAL STRETCH!!

[@haydonlearmonth2055]

I genuinely think he made his intro even more high pitched on purpose just to piss off that guy from the last video, and I respect the hell out of that

[@peisenxu952]

I saw his "resting face" and thought oh maybe this is a joke playing on the pin of shame. Then he just dials it to 11 lmao

I watch both recaps from you then Levy every time. It's really fascinating to see an established GM explain his take on the game then a player in development talk about his on the ground thinking and what he's learning from the games.

[@captaindigan]

It's so wholesome🥰 how Levy supported and made recaps of Hikraus candidates games. And now Hikaru is doing the same for Levy😊.

[@hamza-1-a]

Bro uploded the video before the game even started💀

From him covering hikaru,s games to hikaru covering his games levy came a long way ❤️✨

[@Parthian6]

In other news, yesterday Hikaru once again won his namesake trophy, the Hikaru Nakamura Sportmanship Award! Highlights of his award-winning performance included: - Insightful remarks about the mental health of Firouzja's family - A deep dive into who exactly Firouzja thinks he is - Comments regarding the possibility of future collaborations with the Chessbrah channel And much more! Truly a pioneer of cordiality, sportsmanship, and maturity in the chess scene.

I saw this series about Levy right after I saw Hikaru's video saying Levy would never make GM since he didn't play aggressively enough against higher elo players. Looks like Levy took that criticism to heart and has been really going at these higher elo players. Can't help but respect it. Go Levy!

I just started playing chess at 37. This game seems very simple tbh. I'm smarter than pretty much everyone so I think within a month or two I can get GM and probably beat Hikaru handily.

I like that Hikaru is really positive about Levy getting a GM norm and his return to competitive chess.

[@Nosceteipsum166]

I remember once when I was 12, I played a Pokémon trading card tournament and amidst 100 dudes I made it to the final. Ended up losing because I was nervous and couldn't see the opponent's tactic. I understand the pressure of being almost there, but not quite. I went through the same ordeal. We are brothers, Levy my man.

Getting a GM norm is such an insane feat, even though Levy is leading the tournament he still needs a win and a draw in the next two games.

[@AdmiralADD]

Just praying that the blunder here doesnt weigh on him over the next 2 games. Hes been having an amazing tournament!

[@RudolfMaster.]

2 games, 1 win 1 draw, this is going to pressure him maybe even too much, but if he manages to do it he deserves that gm title

[@michaelh13]

He doesn't get the GM title if he does that, this'll be his first norm of 3 to complete for GM title
