Levy’s youtubetitles never fails to make me insecure about my chess elo

"You can't stop an avalanche with a horse" -Levy Rozman IM

Book locked in!! Thanks Levy. Shipping cost more than the book but hey, the struggles of living in Australia. Hope I made it in time for the signed copy

The " Pawn d fwee " just made my day

Lol i felt like a GM just for finding the 5th brilliant move Imagine how he felt after founding all of them

"Brilliant move #2! Knight G4 *ANYWAY*!" I love this man

4 knights is funni when you hit your opponent with the Halloween gambit

Was already hoping to get the book at some point, but I couldn't pass up the chance to get a signed copy. Can't wait to be pretty okay at chess!!

How much 9s should we put in the title Gotham: Yes

"Xu! What kind of defense is this!?" "I *AM* THE DEFENSE!"

Yo that queen and knight sac were utter brilliancy

Loved the previous title 🤣 "9999999999 elo chess"

At first it looks like he just got lucky, but all the moves would somehow lead to victory, which would be impossible to achieve by chance. Especially if they are 2400+ ranks. They just don't move at random hoping they'll get lucky.

"everything is defended" knight at g4 "defending" the bishop:😅

its 2 am. Couldnt sleep so i played a game of 5-0. Won in 12 moves. Got up and came to see what you had for me. Thanks for being here.

Gotham really motivates us with these titles 💯💯💯

The real twist was that Xu premoved everything, and it just turned out fine anyway.

This reminds me of Morphy's opera game. Beautiful and brilliant. So good it just looks effortless.

Already learnt from that game. Holy crap though, that was amazing. I can’t believe he actually broke through. Amazing content Levy, keep it up!

Gotham is the type of guy that could awake your inner Stockfish and make you reach 9999999999999999999999999999 elo.

"yknow they're going to underground gm norms where they all get naked and oiled up" got me dying XD btw if your wondering where he says that its at 3:47

Great video. Wish you still did tournament recaps.

“Get naked and oiled up and discuss bishop b5 on the 4th move” is a sentence I never thought I would hear.

Thanks Gotham, after reaching 2000 with the help of your previous video my new aim is 9999999

Gotham anarchy chess sent you the best most crazy thumbnail, PLEASE GOD USE IT

Levy went allout on explaining that line😂

Learned a lot from this games. The taking of the free pawn is a trap and he didnt push the d pawn early.

Levy: this is a 20 moves game Also Levy after every move: he can play this, Magnus played this , u can do this...

What a crazy game, he mustve read your book early 😮

"Get naked and oiled up and discuss bisshop to b5" I'm dead now

I was eagerly waiting for Levy's video on this game!

I love how levy just makes the title so dramatic.

As a 999999999999999 Elo player I can confirm this is how I play

Legend has it the vine boom sound played irl when levy was making the intro.

"Criss Cross Apple Sauce" really described this game

My biggest fear in chess is forgetting en passant

“Vegeta, what is his elo-level?” “It’s over nine septilliooooon!”

I got a mate with an exposed attack after moving my pawn, in which the pawn ended up covering one of the escape squares. Great way to start the day

Wow that move order is INSANE

I am a proud 738 ELO chess player because I found the last brilliant move.

@kburtsev

11 ай бұрын

It is always easier to find when you know the outcome. You know there is a brilliant move leading to mate, so you know it probably some insane sacrifice. But if you try to play like that, most of the time you would just give up your pieces for nothing.

@IAmMedina828

11 ай бұрын

I found the knight sacrifice before Levy mentioned because you can feel the crumbling of the castle which dilapidated for attacking chances. Sacrifices are truly one of the greatest tactics in chess ♟

Nearly 4 million subscribers! Levy, I remember when your were elated with 500k! Seems like yesterday

I love how (in the middle of a sentence)promoted his signed book.

What I find fascinating is Levys knowledge of current events, he slips in so many phrases that I recognise from UFC or any other sport😂

As a chess, I can confirm this is true

today's stare had some sort of a mystical feeling mixed with a bit of joy. truly elevating. 9/10

This feel like a game I would play except without actually knowing what my moves do

"Maybe youre 45 and still sound like that" *kamala harris cackles in the distance*

Alternate title: Gotham screaming for 17 mins

Today's stare reached deep within my soul, 8/10

I love the random UFC references: "Headshot dead!"

Bought my signed copies. Thanks levy

Today's stare was really intense and deep. It stunned me. 8.5/10

Today's stare was bold and captivating, despite having lasted for such a short time. 8/10

It is so catastrophic when levy turns off the eval bar😢😢😂😂😂

as a 1900 i can safely say that knight f3 was the most brilliant of all the moves since it is so rare that it prob was not patern recognision like the queen sack wich i also saw instant

Wow that was some brilliant chess.

I watched this game online and really pleased you covered it, and as for me, game of the year so far.

i wanna see those underground grandmaster parties

He has motivated me a lot and helped me in improving my game Thnx levy❤

Bro that stare was like u were looking deep into my soul. Wicked. Awsome

Ordered 2 copies of your book one to gift another to keep I look forward to it

Criss cross apll sauce was amazing

It's crazy by just a simple thing Knight takes Pawn and retreat to D3 causing a Disaster

Isn't it nice when Levy recites an entire sequence of moved that leads to and endgame and it just ends up not getting played in the game
