It's officially over three months that I've been waking up with Chess Vibes everyday. First, WOW, that's insane. But second, THANK YOU SO MUCH, honestly, your videos make me feel like I'm just watching a cousin doing what he loves doing and that's soooo chill, I literally have no ways to tell you how much this little routine is precious to me. You're awesome

He's not like other streamers who go "knight here, take, take, check, take, bishop, take take, and now what you're gonna have to do is take take CHECK, and take, checkmate, VERY SIMPLE."

Halfway through watching this very instructive rating climb series. I appreciate how clearly you articulate your thought & calculation process, and how you always seem to stay cool calm & collected, and never seem to get ruffled! *slow clap* I will definitely support your channel in the near future by buying some of your paid teaching content. Thank you!

I've been watching lots of chess streamers on KZread but Nelson is my favorite. He teaches me how to think during the game. This rating climb is so beneficial! Thanks!

Mine too, very helpful!

Lion's Claw is VERY similar to an opening I spotted on Anarchy Chess that was surprisingly very good. They called it the Anakin Skywalker Attack, and it runs very similar ideas to the claw, but it's a Queen's Pawn opening that basically starts as a Jobava London and if you see KID, you go for the Queen bishop battery, and you have the same pawn structure as the Claw, and you castle long and attack with the Kingside pawns. Good stuff! Love that kind of opening. Throws the KID player completely off his game as they're used to being the ones pushing King Side pawns, not being pawn stormed. 1. d4 Nf6 2. Bf4 d6 3. Nc3 g6 4. Qd2 Bg7 5. Bh6 O-O 6. Bxg7 Kxg7 7. O-O-O This is a typical Anakin Skywalker Attack setup. You will end up playing f3, taking the center if they let you, and pawn storming their King. Their best reply is to throw their Queen side pawns at you, but you get there just a tad faster, and one of you is going to die, just about every time. I play between 1400 and 1600 and last I checked I had something like an 85% win rate against KID thanks to Anakin Skywalker.

Congrats to 1000! Keep it up Nelson! I hope everyone learned a thing or two already and is able to apply the new knowledge in their own games.

These are easily the best chess videos on youtube. I'm learning heaps form them. The format is perfect, the explanations are spot on and super clear and your chess skills are excellent! Thankyou mr Patzer! :P

Very thankful for this series. I think I've learned "a thing or two". lol. A couple of things that have been very important is understanding the meaning of saving time with tempo, and don't shy away from aggressive moves. Very helpful , learning a lot. Really appreciate you sharing your insights!

While you’re explaining the position, your opponents are checking your profile and seeing that you haven’t lost and then they quit 😂 This is such a great series, super informative and has really helped improve my way of thinking!

Great series m8. I usually play Vienna or caro-kaan ( when allowed) but you're making me want to branch out a bit. Love the calm thought process. I have a bad habit of overthinking early to mid game positions and then losing thru time pressure but you make it straightforward. Keep up the good work lad👍

I love how the games become more complicated as the rating rises

Nelson love this series. I have been learning so much and I don’t get bored at all. If anything the uploads are not long enough!

That really sucks when people disconnect 34:30 that guy was giving Nelson a good game

This is the first video of yours that I have seen. I just subscribed. I like the pace, description, and thought processes of your matches.

very helpful to see the thought process behind the moves, thanks! :)

This series helped me break into 1000 club on blitz after being stuck under 900 for a year. You explain your thoughts so we'll. Very helpful. Thank you 🙏

What a blessing this channel is! I fall asleep to this. The chess game and his voice is so calming. No bullshit, no screaming like many other chess influencers (Cramling, Botezs etc.)

Thanks so much for playing those Dutch games! It’s my favorite opening right now, it was fun to watch you play them

I've been over 1000 rated for as long as I can remember, I'm currently 1430 something. My highest is 1473 and I've been trying to get to 1500 for so long it feels like. It's been a wild up and down with great days and terrible days trying to climb.

Great content. I hope you continue the progression.

yo I love your content it has taught me so much, thank you for taking the time and putting the content out!!!

These videos have been helpful. I’ve been able to conceptualize things better while playing

Love the way you are commenting . it makes the game so much more understandable

Loving this series Nelson, keep it up! Would be interested to see you okay the KID or more of the KIA :)

I really like how you were deliberate in all your moves and it made the game feel like it was slower.

Amazing stuff. Love it

Great content, learnt so much as a beginner!

What an amazing tutorage. Thanks again

Loving this series

Enjoyed watching you. Explain your logic

I have no interest in chess before but from when I watched your chess rating climb since I am adding to looking your videos.. Whether I loss in chess but interesting looking your sense of explanations and manoeuvring your tactics.. You are a nice mentor..

I learned the trick at 22:25 as to just put the king on the different color than the Knight. In the end i guess its the same result.

In 16 episodes you’ve come as far as I have in my first 6 months! I’m hoping to one day climb as high as your series will go, get that NM status. Should be fun since I’m starting at the age of 27 😅

You do so well at explaining broski

I just starting playing chess a month ago and I am really learning a lot from you, and this series of videos. I was watching Nakamura's beginner videos but simply moves too fast for my beginner brain. Nothing against him, but I haven't learned enough to keep up with him yet.

Man I been sleeping on this channel, great video! Now I need to find the ones where he’s playing in the lower ratings lol

9:50 I think going for that pawn is okay, because it greatly weakens the light squares, particularly the knight on c6.

You r a very good explainer=> teacher❤️

Peter is now keep getting better. I hope Bobby will climbing up his rating too!

Can you play few games of Urusov Gambit. I'm learning it, would be great to see your thought process while playing it

You are doing a great job talking about what it is in your mind and help us to understand it better, thanks for that. But can you pls analyze some games which you think it wasn‘t that easy? For example the game against „a-random-goat“ which disconnected?

I'm 1400 and I still get a lot from watching all of these lower rated speed runs. You think a lot differently than I do and I'm learning a lot. How do we give support for your channel, do you have a patreon? I'll check out your shop.

Moving the b pawn up to to move the bishop to b7 would attack the rook instead of moving the d pawn

Thanks for your help, I crossed it and now I’m 980 elo

At around the 5:00 mark, could you not have fianchettoed (sp?) the bishop and attacked the rook? Just looking at it, it seems that the worst-case scenario is that you win the enemy knight because he would have to move the rook to get off of the long diagonal. If he doesn't move the rook pawn, then you do that and the white rook is yours. Or am i missing something? EDIT- I should have kept watching. Lol.

Anybody else thinks that Qc3+ was a very obvious move?

@TheZoneEater

I looked at that move thinking it was a fork but actually the rook was still defended by the bishop on e7

well you have became my favorite chess content creator. thanks for the insightful tips

Sometimes you do have to trade material for time. With pieces on the board, it's much easier to blunder a game where you are 5 pawns ahead, whereas 5 pawns up in a pawns only endgame reduces the chance of losing to an infinitesimal.

i love how humble you are even if you are playing with 900-1000 ELO

Nevermind

You are the best teacher for lower-rated (900) players like me. Please do some tactical things and their variations also , because I think most of your viewers are 800-1500 players. As they do less blunders, I think they are capable of learning some tactical variations also.

I saw your trap against the fried liver attack counter gambit and he followed the moves you laid out step by step all the way to thru smothered mate.

Next speedrun if you get into the 1. e4 e5 2. Nf3 Nc6 position could you please play a spanish I would love to see it however this is not my speedrun!

8:04 Actualy there is a trick but you had to play h3

Really impressive

At 20 min 7 sec... Why not moving the pawn straight in Front of the king, and even if the Knight goes h7, just take and cm?? Am i missing something?

Min 7:35... why would it be checkmate? Couldnt black defend with a horse on the greenfield? Thanks by the way :)

i, of course, watch people like alex, gothamchess as far as chess youtube goes, but since starting watching your vids i've gained 150 ELO in the last 7 days. appreciate you!

Me - Let's move from 900 ELO to 1000 today. . End up with 800 ELO

btw what elo should i be when i can find m4 in 2 mins or 3 (just wondering if there a tier system)

At 18:53 if black pushed the pawn to g5, what is the recommended move for white?

Please show the analysis after a good match so we can see the accuracy results and how many of each moves were what

7:53 Ng5 doesn't work, either. 18:09 but after ... fxg6, the f-file is half-open, which is a bad thing. 32:07 What about ... c5 and THEN ... Bc6? 52:22 Or ... fxg3; after Rxf8+ Rxf8, Black's upcoming Bxf3 and gxh2 both look bad for White. 53:29 ... Ne5 and the threat of ... Bxf3+, looks formidable.

how are you always using the orange squares and red arrows when you right click and your left hand is nowhere near the keyboard!

Something in my eye... traped knight...

good playin nelson lopez

23:00 bookmark

Magic berries in chess prison, obviously.

Please play Vienna gambit

Great video! Thank you so much!

36:47 why didn't you take the pawn with en passant?

How did you know beforehand that your rating will be 1001 after winning the last game?

18:45 I wonder what white would do if black played g6-g5

25:09 Bxc3+ best move

I am only 1400 my problem is I play while at work when the call volume is low since I work the night shift. And also i go through some days where I lose like 50 elo or more because I can not think for some reason. I Struggle against the cicillian and the caro khan and end games are always tuff. I love playing the Albin counter gambit against the queens gambit hoping to see that line in this series at some point. If they do not know what they are doing they can really be in a bad situation my favorite part is the under promotion to a knight and forking the king and queen with the bishop after.

21:16 Stockfish say best move is Rg3

59:36 opponent resigned quickly I may have played a few more moves given you only had 41 seconds left esp seeing how long you’d taken on your previous moves (given they didn’t know you were streaming).

Can you please play the Caro-Kann next

I voted that the first loss is over 1300 and i guess it's between 1600-1800

31:00 Fish say g4

Close games … wiggle wiggle… one or two went in the endgame only 4-5 points up

Can u play kings indian or london

Can you put chapters again?

At 20:36 instead of the move Nd2 was g5 just winning? Yes you lose the rook, but after you take on f6 with the pawn checkmate looks pretty unstoppable unless they play Qxf6 but your just winning there

at 45:30 wasn't Qf3 really good? If defended the pawn and attacked the bishop
