So it's brilliant because that queen move hangs your queen to Knight check discovery, but even further past that it's winning for white Since you didn't see that the move should lose your queen, and your opponent didn't see he wins the queen either, I'm not sure this counts haha, gg on the win

That isn't what happened, NL hung the queen the move before the brilliant move. If his opponent saw it, NL's queen was dead no matter what. The sensible move afterwards is taking the pawn with discovered check, losing his queen for the opponent's knight, bishop, and initiative in return. The reason NL's move was a brilliant move is because it sacs the queen and requires a very specific set of difficult to find moves, including 2 sacrifices, to make it not wasted. Opponent didn't see the queen was hanging so we didn't see it play out, but no chance NL would have seen the 6-8 move follow up with 2 sacrifices (he even is surprised by the suggestion in the analysis), so it would be a bad move because he would have lost the queen for little in return if the opponent saw Nc4.

Worst case scenario you lose a queen but you can capture all of the developed pieces on the white side which smooths it out a little

got it twice , first was a rook move that forced a draw as i was about to get mated ,the second was the time i had just learn the greek gift and i managed to apply it in a match. The brilliant move was the bishop sacrifice to start the sequence

My first and only brilliant move was like the only move that didn't lose, I just took a pawn with my king

holy shit this did not click at all that its northern lion until I looked at the channel. good to see him again. was wondering why this chess vid was so entertaining

Bro when I was at a 900 I was put in to check and I moved my king out of chess and it marked it as a brilliant move. It was a extremely obvious move

There are a lot of lines and if Black plays the better ones, they end up ahead on material but the H8 rook is still stuck. I think if the Black Queen retreats, it hangs a Bishop, while the Queen trap line trades down lots of stuff. White still goes from way behind to even in the evaluation. The actual response was that really bad pawn capture that threw the game.

Me: Oh now he can just win your queen with a discovered attack... Also me: Yet to get a brilliant move

The reason it is marked as a brilliant move is because the engine thought he purposefully blundered his queen into a position where it was trapped a few moves earlier to get into this line that the engine itself did not even consider, and not because the move itself is better than just giving it up to the knight.

i’m case anyone confused, a move is “brilliant” if the player plays the best move, but the engine doesn’t realize why it is the best move until it analyzes a winning move sequence after the move is played. this may mean that you played a move that genuinely was outside of the box, or the computer just didn’t see a certain winning move sequence until after the move was played. it is wiser to listen to chess experts on whether a move is “brilliant” or not in cases like this, and not the computer. because a queen sacrifice mate in 13 is brillant, but to the computer it’s just the best move.

Hey man, first time here. I have to say I instantly subscribed when I witnessed that brilliant move of yours, Qa5!!

39 seconds in and I've played this same opening numerous times and I've never seen anyone else play it. I saw it in a video about the Queen's Gambit and different lines. I'll also play d4 then Nf3 before c4 to prevent the albin counter-gambit

I just love how the queen move is both the most small brain and somehow also the most big brain move and he chose it for the wrong reason.
