Blundering pieces and pawns is by far the number 1 reason people have lower ratings like around 1300-1500. Part of it is not calculating out lines, if you are not calculating out lines to about 5 plys, that is a problem. Also, constantly look for loose pieces of both your own and your opponent. And look for type 2 loose peices, a piece that is defended once and attack once. Finally, it helps a lot to do tactics and combinations puzzles and also look at your games afterword and see all the missed tactical opportunites on both side. Until you become a pretty good tactical player, you will never increase your rating, because it is so common to blunder and it ends the game pretty much on the spot.

If only he uploaded daily, the wait is sickening frankly

Me: "oh maybe a5 to prevent b4" Danya 2 seconds later: "99% of you would play a5 here" Me: "pfft a5? So dumb"

That “putting your time to good use” is like my motto when playing chess. Since I always play 30-minute games, I almost always spend the entire game during the middlegame, just to make sure I don’t blunder. Many people doesn’t seem to realize this, as I’ve had opponents (which probably are used to blitz/bullet) who would chat me with “zzz” or “???” when I haven’t made a move for a few minutes, which to me was really weird and annoying. Like bro, why’d you even pick to play a 30-minute game if you’ll just blitz moves and expect that your opponent would do the same.

Please keep doing these longer videos, these are my training videos!

I usually don’t comment on videos but i have to say this, your videos really helped me improve so much. You’ve changed my whole way of thinking about positions and so made me so much more tactically aware, taught me when a move is good and when it isn’t, when i should be scared of pawn pushes etc. My rating shot up from 1300 rapid to 1581. And all this for free. We love you Daniel keep up the great content.

Excellent commentary Danya, these 2k rapid videos seem the most helpful

Wonderful explanations about opening concepts throughout!🙏

Danny, another great video once again, every single one is gold to me. Keep it up and thanks for the countless lessons.

Couldn’t be more excited when saw title of double dose!! Literally look for new videos every day!!

Kudos to the first opponent tho. I think the reason he got this far is he was playing aggressive, tactical chess (sometimes dubious) but not getting punished. I'm pretty sure that person had much, much better games in the past, hopefully with higher accuracy.

There are so many nuggets in these videos that are super useful and easy to integrate into my game. Like defending with Nbd7 and not rushing toward h6. Sometimes I think I overthink things in chess, because at my level if you develop all your pieces in a harmonious and logical way you usually just win.

NOOO Danya don't tell them about that Vienna Gambit trap. That single line probably gave me 300 free ELOs

The amount of knowledge I learned from watching Danya’s videos just in these past 3/4 months, extremely grateful for your existence ser 🤝

Hey Danya, thanks for your teaching. Even as a 1400, I’m learning tons from these 2000 speedruns.

After Bxf3: white has 3 pieces covering that square, but each of them are pinned in a different way. Great stuff, Danya!

This is what my speedruns look like in my head lol

The only thing better than Danya video before bed . . . Waking up to a new Danya video. Awesome 🙂

Love the new thumbnail style 😍

Danya in the first game is a more mild version of my condescension towards people continuing to play a game down 12 points. “Oh no my pawn”

Wow I just got the exact same line as game 1 until 11.Qh4 at ~1300 rating; I don't think I would've found the knight/rook fork without this video, thank you!

There is no greater teacher of chess, than Daniel Naroditsky

That’s my goat right here!

Thanks Danya, you're really the best out there. Fantastic lessons!

Danya, I absolutely live to watch your videos. Some might think it to be a useless excuse for life but I love your personality, your intellect, your attitude, and overall your double dose speed runs. Thank you for this, I can’t wait to learn something new.

I don’t really play chess daily or really play at all but I still watch danya bcuz I love to support and just watch him play and explain. It’s crazy bcuz I just played about 6 games and went 4-2 around 1350 elo and I think that’s due to just watching danya. Being able to play at 1350 after not playing in almost a year shocks me. He is one of the greatest

I tend to play the exact structure in the second game in the advance French, other side has an e instead of c pawn but it’s just as solid

thanks

hahahahaha we lost our pawn let's resign

After Qd1, Qe7 you can play Qe2 forcing the knight to retreat. Very similar to if black accepts the vienna gambit. 6:43

@_A-B_

Жыл бұрын

Yes he said the exact same thing lol

3:00 There is 0-0-0 here actually because of Qe4! Escaping the skewer with a pin, and if black tries f5?! to deflect the queen we can escape the deflection with Qd5+ using the newly opened diagonal. Then after the king moves, the rook escapes too

8:10 Concretizing is a funny word

omg my 1000 opponent plays that against the scotch too,can't believe 2000 do that mistake

Hello, abbas56 here. I was playing with my feet. Thanks for the game.

11:29 What if black plays c5? I assume it leads to a position with an isolated pawn but your Bishop is placed aggressively and simultaneously your remove your opponent's central pawn. My question is whether c5 can be played or not.

‘And this in my book called fork'🤣🤣

"Might have to hold a funeral on it".

TIL concretizing is a word

Daniel makes it look so easy.

Finally like the old series

Can you do opening analysis on Nxe4 Four Knights Scotch, it's a really cool sideline and scores very well

I just know that if I ever ended up in a speedrun, I'd end up playing like the first guy.

The only chess related video I will always click on

Online players don't know any opening theory compared to anywhere remotely equivalent in classical chess.

Thanks Danya I'm so proud of my chess improvement I used to be 800 just three years ago and now I'm 840. I feel confident in my tactical instincts and positional awareness . My favourite gambit is the King's gambit accepted.
