I remember I was in a film production class once and our professor said, “You have to learn and master the rules so then you can learn how to break them,” and this is the vibe I get from watching Magnus sacrifice that queen.

[@timothygalvin3021]

I read the title quickly and thought to myself "why is magnus playing against an amish girl!?"

[@emilerhard4189]

That's probably one of the only games they can play so it would make sense 😅

[@alexmandella7418]

I’m a simple man, I see ASMR Chess video, I click like.

[@aesaehttr]

🧀

[@flenditch]

How many more times see you going to comment that

[@PizzaChess69]

Real sigmas keep things simple.

[@mflcgaming5104]

I swear I've seen you comment this before

[@hc-vader]

Love the transitions to reset the board. Awesome editing!

[@Mercisinho]

Love your videos man. This work you’re doing.. keep in mind there are thousands of people whose day gets better because of you. Greetings from Spain 🇪🇸💪🏼

[@imanolcarrasco3780]

That’s right! In my case not getting much better but at least much more relaxed! Another Spaniard here! 🫡 🇪🇸 jajajaja

[@funkym0nkee77]

This slowly became one of my favourite games you've ever featured! There is incredible depth to every move made. It gave me that sweet chess rush

[@GregMoe-fz1lb]

I’m always watching your videos and somehow find a new one every day! This video is awesome and the production quality is top notch

[@jaminnelson400]

Thanks for showing this amazing game. I remembered this game from when you first put out this video, and had to watch it again because it really stuck in my mind.

[@Lars_Maassen]

I still really love this chess board. Still on my wish list for the future

[@cyberneticshadow5572]

Watching top level chess is like watching any form of master level art for me, it's a type of magic that leaves a feeling of pure awe. Thank you for these videos.

[@mrflongle]

Perfect timing as always, thank you!! More whisper chess videos please :)))

[@HHHBFResurrected]

Black at 37:00 might be the coolest thing I've ever seen on a chess board. That picture transcends chess & speaks to something bigger, much as people love watching fluid attacking patterns in anything, a truly impenetrable defensive structure will always win & is a lot more beautiful than people realise.

[@mlky2971]

hey man your videos are awesome, love your rapping too your insanely talented. good stuff.

[@nawemarchelli]

Man, that transitions.. That's because you are the best asmr/chess yt channel..

[@ash_tree6209]

As someone who really doesn't understand chess at all, I have to say this is brilliant! I understood everything that was happening and it was like getting a behind the scenes look into an area I knew nothing about! I also have to say I loved the quote fingers in frame at minute 25 - very funny!

[@donsimons9810]

See, this is why i think your videos are better for day time relaxing, maybe during lunch or something. They’re too interesting and it keeps me up! I would say that the special hand effects are well done but the slow methodical replacement of the pieces in their original positions made a nice asmr tapping ;) something to consider. well done!

[@donsimons9810]

and i do love that giri had only the queen in the end

[@imanolcarrasco3780]

right on sleeping time! such a good timing! thanks boss

[@gxngxbdu]

Smoothest transition oh my

[@sobekolsen4046]

once again, the chess whisperer has delivered a top notch video. keep on going!!

[@alambicco9914]

13:36 ASMR hits so hard

[@Danthrax81]

Great editing, you're quite the professional now

[@Kirito-qx6zv]

Sunday’s the best day ever, RussianBadger posted and I watched it in the day and ASMRChess posted right when I went to bed. Best day I’ve had in awhile!

[@aesaehttr]

I thought i watched this game live months ago. Turns out It was... years. 😮

[@TomCaldwell-d1k]

Love all your vids, love how you explain games, love your philosophies around chess! If I were to be a selfish man I would request more of you playing with commentary, openings or a new idea might be analysing your own games (supergms are difficult to follow but your games and how you reason your moves make sense to me despite you being circa 1000 elo higher) and your tapping and whispering are top notch so more of that. All the same love your work thankyou!

[@TomCaldwell-d1k]

Following on from this seconds after writing my message you have given a great example of why I think your explanations of games are so good: you say anish does pawn to b4 but before that I will show the other moves to highlight what pawn to b4 achieves. Best chess teacher ever

[@gg_Talon]

I love your voice and accent so much 😭❤️

[@list1726]

Thanks for posting

[@funergy]

Well well well another relaxing video of chess ♟️🎉

[@PizzaChess69]

Video idea: This is move 8, and White is dead lost. But what is even more shocking is the number of beginner to intermediate players up to this day that still lose to the Fried Liver Attack. In this video, you will learn three ways to brutally punish the Fried Liver, including the safest one, the riskiest one, and the most satisfying one.

[@andrewkontak6326]

Thank you so much for the soft spoken chess content! Could you start putting the dates of the game's you cover in the title of the videos? ❤

[@ASMRChess]

I’ll try to put them in the description :)

[@TheNitram8]

Did you know that Bobby Fisher was a huge consumer of ASMR chess content? Game openings never failed to make him fall asleep. Yes, i know, this Fisher opening fact is a bit random.

[@chawkimaraoui2302]

I was trying to sleep listening to this now I'm a grand master

[@vdog22100]

Amazing videos man! can you do one exploring end game strategy?

[@sciacallo96]

hola ASMR chess, i'm truly sorry for breaking this down to you, i watch your channel because it soothe my soul before sleeping and not for the games itself, i really enjoy your raspy voice but i love the sound of the chessboard, and this one simply does not deliver, i know it's really handy since it's so compact, but really it drags down the ASMR part of the channel, i hope that you will switch it for some videos or alternate, as always love your content, i'm really sorry for telling you this but i've don it because i sicerely care a lot about this channel (and also i watched the Hikaru Nakamura video for sleeping like the 14 times this night).

[@VColossalV]

it's not that it's compact, it's that it's the most advanced chess board in the world and provides extremely valuable insight.

[@sciacallo96]

@@VColossalV i didn't know that but ASMR wise i don't like it, just saying my opinion

[@kikicatbus]

It would be interesting to see a game playout mostly using red moves

[@JakeNaar09]

THERE WONT BEEE ANY FIREWORKS *he said in his raspy superhero voice*

[@zerohourtv256]

Brilliance

[@friendofsnugglefun]

I don't know if you'll see this, but I'd love to see a Tal game where he actually loses. I'm curious to see what that looks like; preferably a very close game.

[@nolifecooper]

What would you say is the best defense to use when playing black???

[@nordicpaws2423]

Super Sniper Bishops at all windows.

[@Pandora_The_Panda]

Personally, I really like the Caro-kann (vs E4) and the Slav Defense (vs D4, can transpose vs C4), since they both have similar pawn structures and middle game ideas.

[@andrewwilson9123]

I like the Caro against e4 and King’s indian against d4. I’m only 1100 rn, but I know 2000s who play these pretty much exclusively as black. Both have pretty simple ideas to start out but the theory can quickly get complicated the higher up you get, so keep that in mind

[@aesaehttr]

​@@slowbar1I think dude mentions that his Sicilian dragon video was the most watched one that he ever made.

[@lbgonpokeit]

Whoever dislikes this video never had a successful gambit

[@Jan-the-Man]

Yes

[@phantomjoker5]

perfect

[@mavericks621]

Here’s a comment for my favorite asmr and favorite chess enthusiast

[@B1G_Dave]

Stockfish doesn't evaluate Magnus. Magnus evaluates Stockfish.

[@Giarx206]

Another early one, I've been getting better at chess

[@matthewgonzalez2040]

❤❤❤

[@hasb826]

🙏🙏🙏❤❤❤

[@Pivas1]

Why is it a queen sacrifice? Magnus didnt give up material and 3 pieces are usually better than a queen...

[@jamesmoniz5263]

new video hype!! (and Im first?)

[@jamesmoniz5263]

(can't believe I happen stance was on youtube less than a minute after the upload lol)

[@Giarx206]

Yes

[@Giarx206]

At least I got second

[@shadowedblight1673]

500th like

[@FallaciesDetective]

Maybe I have some talent? I saw the genius move & I saw the rook move. 🫣
