@muhammad koπtol (erectile dysfunction) i have been stuck at 600 for quite a while, and no matter how much i was studying my opening, i couldn't reach the 700. Then I studied a bit the endgame, not a lot, litterally 1 hour of my life studying of king and pawns/king rook and pawns. That was enough to send me to 800. People at 600 start malfunctioning in the endgame (more than they do earlier) and I was able to turn the tables being down a rook and a piece quite constantly

[@maxkho00]

That literally happened to me yesterday. It was a bullet game, and my knight was "trapped". I spent 15 (!) seconds - literally a quarter of the entire game - trying to find a way to rescue it, and eventually did using tactics (I moved the knight to a square from which it could be captured but then skewered my opponent's pieces). Worst part? My knight wasn't actually trapped - it had a completely free rook in the corner to capture. Not only that, attacking that very rook was LITERALLY the reason my knight moved in there in the first place. But my brain had just assumed my opponent would move the rook, so when my opponent trapped my knight instead I was like "shoot, I missed that move" because I hadn't calculated it, completely forgetting that I hadn't calculated it BECAUSE IT JUST LOSES A ROOK. Actually, that's not even the worst part. The worst part is that I am 2300, and my opponent was 1700. I ended up winning the game eventually, but the dangers of playing lower-rated players sometimes come from the most unexpected of places.

[@brianaiitken]

@@smrtfasizmu6161 a bunch of reasons: firstly, its online rating, it doesnt matter in the slightest. if youre down a queen and a bunch of pawns, getting a draw once in 50 games is not worth the time. secondly, people play for fun more so than to improve, especially at lower levels. playing an endgame which you have absolutely no chances is not fun at all. might as well resign and go to the next game where you can have a chance of fun. thirdly, they generally dont know how bad they or their opponents are. to them, they are playing good moves. so while you and i can watch the game and say “wow there were so many blunders, why would they resign when the opponent could blunder more?” they look at it and say “wow, my opponent took all my pieces, theyre so good”

You know the game is fire when the bar on the left side just switches every move.

[@trumtrum5510]

Do the 3 numbers by their name count Elo or Blunders at this point?

[@AirborneLegend]

Emotional damage

[@hisuianzoroark5726]

ELO

[@rbcdelta6561]

"Oh, they hang..." Wow, what a game. Levy said it in the intro: "we all start somewhere". They are at 1100 now and are laughing with us! A great episode in a terrifically funny series. Thanks!!

[@Drivetoinsanity]

I’m in the 500 ELO point, and even I see that these moves are awful. Why would you move the queen that early?

[@couldbecharles2607]

As a beginner, this series is definitely the most entertaining way for me to learn to notice my own mistakes that I make and to fix them before I even move my pieces. Thank you so much!

5:30 awww that was adorable

[@anon374]

i just love how the eval goes crazy after each move

[@xolhdlhhskvz]

The definition of never let them know your next move

[@Bangaudaala]

20:42 Me watching this exact moment: "HE DECIDES TO LOSE THE OTHER BISHOP AS WELL!!!" Levy: *shows exactly that* Me: "Ah, for fuck's sake man!!!"

[@trollsansofficial]

the miguel cloning machine isn't ready yet how did this happen

[@learntooilpaint]

New to this channel. I have barely played in at least 15 years, and I’m trying to anticipate their next moves, but I just can’t. I assumed I would be like level 500 having never tried to get a score, but I have to assume I am some way above that level. The number of blunders is just impressive

[@MrSheepMk2]

Normally 600don't even do nearly as many blunders in game there is just some people that are exeptional and does this kind of game once in a while

[@Ghi102]

@@MrSheepMk2 I managed to get exactly one move right, the pawn blocking the bishop from capturing the hanging knight. Aside from that, absolutely no move.

[@MrSheepMk2]

@@Ghi102 In one of your game you only made blunders ? Or are you n the vid I don't understand

[@nameless2844]

@@MrSheepMk2 no theyre saying they only guessed one move right from the video which is mentioned above

@@nameless2844 Oh yeah that make more sense now thx

[@aliveisuppose]

14:13 actually, it's a 3 mover. It's sort of like an enemy preparing an attack for 2 turns and then the main character just moves back 2 steps and asks who they were planning on hitting.

[@itsjustfun0142]

Gotham, thanks to your vid, i improved my skills alot. Ever since i watched your vids, my rating went from 500ish to 800ish in only in 1 or 2 months. And now i started watching your vids again and i increasing my rating by 400 in only 1 month. (My little brother played chess with my acc and he always loses so i lose alot of rating)

[@noahdevore4039]

3:22 I'm guessing they saw how if the queen took the pawn then they would be in check so they moved this bishop to stop it. It is also very likely they just wanted to castle though.

[@ABC_Guest]

4:40 Clearly, black is a very old chess player. They must have forgotten that the rules of chess changed in the 15th-century, allowing pawns to move two squares on their first move.

[@pranavaravindan5536]

Just listening to levy's commentary and the eval bar move up and down is enough to laugh yourself into an aneurysm. I love these kinds of videos.

[@lucasteodoro4905]

16:15 bro i'm dying laughing

[@pogcow4178]

The brilliant move is f3 because white is attacking Black's rook

[@RedemptionRider1899]

​@@pogcow4178is bro dumb

[@toolng1798]

3:00 his thought process was probably: if i dont place the bishop there, he checks my king and can take my knight

[@Why-fz1gh]

Best quote of 2022 “You can’t attack a queen with an unguarded bishop”😂

[@Abrego0021]

As Levy usually says: “We are here to laugh but also we are here to learn”. And there’s a lesson in all of this: NEVER underestimate the power of the queen, specially at a 600 level. Greetings from El Salvador, Levy. Love your videos

[@guestb8389]

20:16 In my head at this EXACT MOMENT I was thinking "Knight e3, knight e3, do knight e3 you son of a-" and _BEHOLD!_ *THERE IT IS!*

5:18 This guy: Look, I saw danger levels, Levy is gonna be so proud of me! Levy:

[@Mythic_Echoes]

White is like: The strength of the rook cannot be matched by a single pawn, I'll double it

[@quantumchaos7549]

Double it and give to the next person

[@jibus3556]

almost as bad as the blundering at this elo is the blunder blindness, where you always assume that the enemy player is incapable of blundering so you don't even bother checking

[@thegoobertron]

lol that laugh at 4:26. When levy reaches sheer utter disrespect for these puny humans.

[@The21stGamer]

Was half expecting White to blunder the Queen right at the end and mess up the pawn endgame causing Black to somehow win by a hair

[@hendrianfajar]

why my opponent on 300 elo never done this? instead they play with 2300 rating match review :(

[@theabnormalpenguin8150]

F3 was mind baffling at 16:06 honestly i can usually predict a lot of the moves you warn us about due to experiencing them and then instant regret but oh my that one was crazy!

7:21 Black: Hahaha you fool now you're about to get check mated Also black when realizing that his Queen is pinned: understandable
