Commentary by Levy is Amazing. Just watching Levy explain exactly the rest of the game at 13:33 I realized Levy really is the best commentator I've ever seen, read, or heard in the Highest Levels of Chess

um no not really. the eval bar started moving down not because the eval bar failed to see ahead, but because magnus's opponent failed to play perfect moves.

@orangepacker7479

8 ай бұрын

Magnus also often played 2nd or 3rd best moves. But he played them in such a way to put pressure on his opponents. The perfect move isn't always the best move because of this. More tense positions allow the better player to outplay their opponent where stockfish would evaluate it a draw, no matter the flavor of the position. Magnus is a master at bringing games to positions where he can pressure his opponent without playing suboptimal moves. That is why he was world champ for so long.@@ade8890

Really nice of Levy to give attention to small chess players like this Mango guy.

Good lord almighty, been following chess since late 60s, lived through and loved the whole Bobby Fischer era, but Magnus seems to be on a different plane -this guy is something we've never seen before, I'm grateful to be around to see this.

Normal person: Wow, hes got more than twice as much time Levi: His time advantage is bigger than the amount of time that Fabiano has left on the clock! :0

I don’t even like playing chess, I just watch because the storylines are interesting and levy is a top tier storyteller.

Firouzja punching Magnus for 30 moves Magnus: "that's all you got George?"

“1.e4, and he wins.” Had me cracking up😭😂

Maybe I never noticed before but I love that the chess board changed colors when you were discussing theory and changed back when we were back in the game. Makes it easier for me to follow.

Been following Magnus' career since the 2013 Candidates. I can honestly say that I haven't seen domination like this from him in a very long time. Effortless really is the word. The man is so in tune with the game it's actually touchingly beautiful to watch sometimes.

The last game there against Alireza- that was... incredible. Yes we love these Magnus videos. Please keep them coming. Perhaps showing how people beat him as well, where he goes wrong, that would also be instructive. For example Fabiano beat him in one rapid game recently. How did he do it?

20:04 The threat of Qh4 is a funny Anastasia's mate with Qxh6+ Kxh6 Rh4#! Alireza stopped the idea with Qe7.

Beautiful, Satisfaction, Peak of Defending and Attacking, sweet and sour positioning, pleasuring video, thank you Levi for this video you made my day

You're the Man Gotham. I love your video content and training.

i leaved i like in the openning of the video because it was just so good and hyped me so much

Always loving his crazy thumbnails 😂

You gotta respect a man like Levy, makes a split second mistake that could be edited out but decides to leave it

From someone about 1000 ELO it's fun to listen to you without watching the board as I miss much of the deeper ideas anyway, the broad sweeps and things to pick up are usually said in your commentary so it's super fun to listen even if I can't watch. It's almost a podcast!

Im no chess player. but, man, the way you describe the games. it's riveting to me. love it.

“Walks Among the Pawns” - You should trademark that immediately

Hikaru was just talking about this in his latest video on Magnus. How Magnus has an extremely deep understanding for where pawns should be positioned and how he knows exactly how to punish pawn structures that are inaccurate. So that pawn on g5 (in the Amin game) and the way that knight was jumping around on the kingside was a true testament to that. edit: Ahh Hikaru actually made the comment while recapping that Firouzja game. It was about that early h5 move

Great breakdowns!

I Love how Levy never clickbaits

Stockfish when he sees you're playing magnus: "The only winning move is not to play".

great video man, finally subbed.

Magnus about to lap Christmas with that Santa picture

nothing like watching Gotham before my game to reach 800 and getting it in a literal flawless game watching these actually inspires me for wins lmao

Now Magnus has become a deity

If I binge every video you’ve made I’ll become a GM by tomorrow

the way he says "Zwischenzug" 😂

11:16 “Socking” 💀😂😂😂

"Let's see how Magnus gets it done, all across the board" lol good unintended double entendre
