perhaps a video about improving "chess vision" would be cool. e.g seeing moves, noticing weakness, avoiding blunders. i mean maybe the answer is just 'practice and play a lot of games' but if there are any other specific tips that would be dope

Write down the things you need to check for (checks/mates, captures, simple threats, pins/potential pins, loose pieces, double attacks, alignment issues, trapped pieces), play slow games and before you move any piece run through the list. You'll soon be doing them without the prompt and at least from a tactical perspective you will be fine. I also find asking "what is my opponent doing" as the first thing after their move reduces your blunder count massively! If you see what your opponent is doing but mis-evaluate it, you can learn to fix that, if you miss their plans altogether you'll never improve. From an 1850 10+0 (i.e. not an expert but not an amateur).

Seriously, you've really helped me improve enormously, and I'll know I've really improved when I start hearing your voice before I make the move.

It's due to the Dewa kipas drama. Many comments on this video are fans who support him blindly even though it is clear he was cheating. Truly disgusting how many gave Levy Rosman death threats and disliked his videos

I was familiar with a lot of these concepts already, but this was the most clear and concrete explanation of piece activity that I have ever heard. A lot of people talk about active or passive pieces in really nebulous terms assuming that it's obvious, when it's actually one of the harder concepts to grasp for new players.

As always, I appreciate you. Keep it rolling. Cheers.

Hey Levi! How about a video explaining when it’s good to trade vs. when it’s bad? I’m about 1000 rating and struggling with that sometimes. I get that you’re supposed to trade when you’re up material and not trade when you’re attacking for example, but I still find it hard sometimes. Appreciate the content, keep up the awesome work
