[@nham8875]

He was too worried about the pawn push

[@dullestpeanut]

8:25 that rook was hanging forever and the guy moves the knight and still doesn’t see it lol

[@dingusrevolver]

It's so weird when both people agree to not see something so simple haha

[@Tocinos]

why ppl should just play rapid

[@notyourdad]

And the next time the knight moved back there he suddenly saw it and moved his rook, hilarious.

[@savourydiamond3448]

I genuinely thought he was bm’ing until he allowed the draw.

[@JustAndrewIsFine]

That whole endgame sequence did critical psychic damage to me.

[@samm6933]

I've actually looped back around to thinking, maybe we, as viewers, don't deserve chess content. it's too good. what have we done to earn it? absolutely nothing

[@ascensionblade]

I agree that we don't deserve chess content. That's why we instead watch NL be confused about why the checkers pieces are moving on both colored squares.

I like watching you play 10 min chess. Find it better to listen to your thought process and then analyse the games

[@tongpoo8985]

Yeah speed chess is lame. Prefer 10 or 15 minutes

[@imCurveee]

@@tongpoo8985 Doesn't make for quick exciting videos

[@tongpoo8985]

@@imCurveee the speed chess videos are less exciting because they are incoherent. NL is not a master level player, when hes under the mental load of low time controls, the commentary and the quality of play suffers, just making simple blunders and no time to really explore any cool lines. The 10 minute chess episodes are way higher quality

[@imCurveee]

@@tongpoo8985 The chess may be higher quality, but that isn't what I said. For the non-serious chess crowd its more exciting to watch him frantically pull off ridiculous moves that wouldn't happen in a 15-min game. If you want serious high quality chess, I'm sure there's better channels to watch.

[@tongpoo8985]

@@imCurveee you think so? Seems like most people agree with me. What do you think im expecting from a 1500 player? I just want good commentary and not throwing away games on one move blunders constantly, just like a lot of others apparently do too.

[@isaacrobertson4374]

@34:42 The queen hang back and forth is so funny

[@RedzeeTV]

he was rubbing it in NLs face like do you not see what youve done

[@EpiphoneGIX]

Hey NL I never imagined myself watching chess but I’d be lying if I said these aren’t my favorite videos you make. Your sense of humor is enough to make one of the most complex strategy games fun to watch. I hope when you blow up you keep making these vids. Oh and SAP, can’t get enough of SAP either.

[@HexQuesTT]

NL when he's up by 1: I'm a god, they're done for, they should surrender NL when he's down by 5: You know, considering the circumstances Also, I've said it before and I'll say it again, I don't get why he doesn't review his losses, you surely learn more from reviewing your losses than your wins

[@gaiusgracchus7759]

NL I've watched your videos for a decade, love your content, though I've not watched as much recently. LOVE chess, though, and found my way back to you through that. Keep it up!

[@FrostCoyote]

12:10 the rook is very free bc the double attack so you could definitely take with rook, hard to see on fast time controls tho

[@alexandercordova3856]

Hey NL, never commented before but love you content. Just wanted to say that I’m a big fan of the chess content and I personally find the longer games more interesting and enjoyable to watch. 10 minutes or even 15|10 games gives you room to think and play your best which i think is fun to watch. Not that I dislike bullet, but since it seems like you feel pressured by the audience to keep it spicy, just figured I’d share my take. (Honestly I think 30 min is my favorite time constraint but I seem to be in the minority there lol)

[@jstache93]

I am begging for a single analysis of a close loss

[@jonnywhite952]

this content is just absolutely priceless

[@explorerguy]

I want to say you should try to get better but at the same time your crazy plays and the subsequent cope/rage sparks laughter even in my jaded psyche. I thank you for that.

[@DarkSideChess]

i like how his rook was hanfing for at least 3 moves and neither player saw it in game 2.

[@etopowertwon]

Me watching nl: You almost missed the shiny queen! You both missed the shiny rook for three moves! You miss the shiny rook under double attack! Me playing chess with some rando on lichess: Wait, did I just hang a queen on move 4? Wait, why do I have less bishops and knights than my opponent? Wait he will fork both rooks?! Wait, he is not going for a fork, he is going for a mate?! (That's why I disabled showing my rating).

[@Trevor21230]

32:10 Bro, the long castle was the *only* good move there, because if they took the pawn and put you in check you have to sacrifice either your ability to castle AT ALL or trade your Queen for a Rook.

[@SkAit420]

[@Zasek2112]

I'm not completely terrible, but I could never play this fast.

[@Zasek2112]

12:00 D8 to D1 takes rook, F1 to D1 takes rook, F5 to C2 takes pawn... not sure what happens after that, either E3 to D2 or they hide their rook. Either way the queen can escape and I'm sure it would have rattled them a bit. That's where my instinct went, totally different game.

[@Tocinos]

If you're cutting the caro and playing e5 then get in the mood of playing h6 and getting your knight off f6 to push f pawn to bring queen through e8 to the kingside. It's a lot easier than caro ideas like h6 and g4 (weak h pawn) although it's good for black.
