Hey Danya, this is absolutely amazing. Been playing the traxler for like 10 years and never encountered d4, would've completely stumped me. One suggestion I have for opening videos is timestamping the start of the different variations, I think that would make it a lot easier to navigate the different branches of the tree so to speak.

Ive started playing Chess a couple of months ago (already knew the basics from 15years back) and the only openings I know and love to play are the fried liver and traxler. Even tho I know what the Traxler is about, I often still get dunked on. This move will definitly give me some advantage. And the nice part is that for my elo (900-1000) probably 95% of players will play bishop takes d4. So I can get away with learning one, maybe two, lines ... for now! Your videos are amazing and really help newer players a lot. And it gets the newer players more excited about chess so keep up the awesome work!

GM Naroditsky, thank you so much for taking the time to produce this instructive video. While I am not a E4 player, there is always wonderfully insightful things I learn in all your videos. I recall years ago studying the fried liver attack from of a really old copy of MCO I picked up at a chess tournament in the late 1970's. Yes I know that makes me old but chess keeps me young. I personally would love, love, love if there was a downloadable file; pdf or otherwise of the data you covered. I realise that is a lot to ask and I do plan on taking the time to transcribe your teaching into a google doc file for myself. But hey, if you don't ask the answer is no! Correct?? Anyway I can't say enough how much I and others appreciate your efforts. Beyond your pace of speaking, which I assume is designed to get all this wonderful information out in the time allotment you have preselected for your video, there is nothing I would say could be improved. I, speaking for myself, would watch much longer videos on opening subjects. I consider myself a lifelong student and chess has always been a passion, albeit one that I have neglected for years and only came back to during the lovely pandemic we all are enduring through. I found you on youtube about 2 months ago while looking for info on Caro Kann theory which you wonderfully provided via several speedrun videos. That, in my mind, earned you my monthly prime subscription which had been going to Levy Roseman, who is also a great teacher just not entirely what I was looking for. Can't say enough good things about how you teach, and present yourself to the internet world. Thanks brother, and know your hard work is appreciated by many.

I'm looking forward to seeing more opening content. Your analysis seems quite thorough and is the video length is very appreciated! I would wonder - 1) who is your intended audience for these videos, and how does it compare to your typical viewership? For example, people studying your speedrun series around 1200-1400 may find studying these lines overwhelming/difficult, and if they run into said lines in club games they may find their opponents playing even more bizarre deviations than the ones you discussed. 2) Similarly, especially early on in your series it may be worth discussing effective learning methods for these openings, since less experienced players may not have a good sense of how to effectively study many lines (i.e., they might watch the video without extra serious work on their own). 3) I enjoyed how you highlighted several common motifs throughout the video, such as when to play Nxf7 vs Bxf7, the Qh5-Nxg6 motif, and how Black's primary plan is to play Bxf2+ Nxe4 Qh4 Nxg3. It might be a nice supplement to the great concrete variations you give to include these "bigger picture" ideas in the summary run through you did at the end of the video.

I found it a bit too fast for me to take it all in, I like it when during speedrun videos he will sort of pause and calmly try to press the chat into finding the best move, that has definitely helped me improve. Still, not everything has to be aimed at me lol, and I still got something out of it. But it'd be cool to see that style applied to individual openings too!

Hello Mr Naroditsky, I am a huge fan of yours across all videos you do. In terms of opening videos I thought you were very concise and well presented. As a fan of Gotham Chess as well I have purchased nearly all his opening courses I think comparatively you are really good at how you break theory down and explain, so I just wanted to give you some feedback and encourage you to continue making opening videos and wish you all the best ahead.

Wow! Never seen this whole d4 idea in the Traxler before! This genuinely feels like a video that even titled players could get something from - which is pretty rare for YT opening videos.

Great video! For future opening videos I'd love to see something more like "these are the long-term strategic ideas, important pawn breaks, squares to focus on" in more solid/sound openings. Tactics and variations are also great but positional opening play is the kind of thing that's hard to learn from engine analysis. Thanks again!

Even as a USCF 2000+ player I found this both educational and entertaining. More, please. And in the same spirit, I think you can make a similar series on endgames. Just a suggestion.

YES!!! I've noticed I get into equal or losing endgames as a ~1500 and then my opponents' quality of play dissolves and I manage to either get an edge, or convert a winning game easily. Need more endgame knowledge!!!

@@Arthas30000 I think the reason why endgame play is so poor with lower rated plyers is that they rarely survive long enough to reach an endgame and that discourages them from even putting in the effort to learn. But a really good teacher and content creator - as we have here - can overcome that inertia. As a teenager, I studied Ruben Fine's "Basic Chess Endings" and that is about as exciting as reading the phone book (remember those?) . There has to be a better way.

I'm just loving that you're covering the Traxler! This is one of my favourite openings for the excitement and the fun that these games always end up in. If I could make one request on future opening videos though, it would be including a PGN in the description of the lines that you recommend, so that it can be easier to bring into opening repertoire software. I do it manually if necessary, but this is just a lovely touch that I've seen in a couple places before. Thanks!
