Hi Danya, I just wanted to express how much I truly enjoy your content. Your dedication and passion for chess really shine through in everything you do. You're one of the absolute best teachers when it comes to chess! If you are thinking about restarting the speedrun, I'd love to see some full-fledged classical chess. You bring so much value in your explanations and thoughts, and it would be incredible and fascinating to hear/watch a Grandmaster going through things like Closed Spanishes/Italians. Maybe bring out some romantic chess? It'd be super fun to see the King's/Evan's/Scotch Gambit! There's also things like the Four Pawns vs the Alekhine, or a nice fun line like the Lasker Simul Gambit. I'd love to see some Classical Caro-Kann too, It's definitely sad to see how it's fallen out of favor despite (in my opinion) still having some venom for White. Some more Advanced would be good too, especially the Milner-Barry. Could also show some love to the Classical French too. Austrian Attack vs the Pirc/Modern, Modern/Classical/Nimzowitsch vs Petroff...And for the Sicilian it would be super fun to see a cut-throat Yugoslav vs the Dragon, or English Attack vs the Najdorf! Rossolimo & Sveshnikov would be nice too. Not to mention on the Black side how beneficial it would be to hear about the Queen's Gambit Declineds, Slavs like the Semi with the highly theoretical Botvinnik, or Moscow! Even the Classical Slav is pretty interesting. Then there's of course the creme of the crop in the Breyer, Chigorin, Open or Marshall Attack! Two Knights vs the Italian? Modern vs the King's Gambit? Bc5 vs the Scotch? Thank you for your dedication and contributions to the world of chess! I hope you can consider these suggestion, but i'm still going to eagerly wait whatever you post next. Keep up the amazing work!

Cheers Danya👍

Thanks for these

I know you only planned on doing one of these but another speed run would be amazing!! I'm 940 ELO, currently playing the Ponziani as white, and Caro Kann as black. Another speed run where you share your favorite openings for the lower rating ranges would be awesome. Appreciate all the effort you put in. You are the best teacher on KZread.

Danya i would love the next speedrun playing your main openings all games!

I would really like to see a speed run where we don’t get ‘easier openings’ just because we are at a lower rating then we only get more theoretical ones when we get higher up the ladder. I really want to see how to punish ‘beginner mistakes’ using theoretical openings like the Najdorf, the Ruy, etc. but I rarely get to see that cauz it’s always the Scotch or something boring when we’re lower rated 😅

Thank you so much for these speedruns. You've single handedly improved my chess. Can you do maybe a few more games in the 1300-1600 ish range? Cause that's where the most players and a lot more players will profit from it, compared to say, a 2200 rated game because very few people are in that rating. Anyways, thank you so much again for these videos

The next speedrun has to be Kings Indian for sure, it's his pet opening and a lot of people including me love to see him play it. Leave a like on the video for the algorithm guys

Although it is frustrating to face so many cheaters at this level, it is very instructional to see you play such high level games and explain them. I hope it continues, but I understand if you want to quit 🙂

Happy birthday buddy🎉

great game and analysis thanks Danya ! 3 questions , short chess 960 speed run for fun ? checkmate patterns review ? 42 tactical motifs ? standard chess speed run ? Whatever it is I'll be here. keep going brother, great job !

I have carefully watched all the games from all Danya's speed runs, and I have really benefitted from this tremendous content. However, I feel at this point that it's time to start a new speed run, perhaps with a different theme/approach.

I like how every time Danya has to calculate he says "I have to calculate for a moment in silence" and then the calculation is already over. If he doesn't point it out, we wouldn't even notice.

I kinda wish more time was spent in the 1100-1800 range where most people here probably are. But since it's a new account he whizzes through those bits and spends most time in the 2000+ range which can be a little too complicated or theory-heavy.

Those Sicilian adventures where he gets in trouble and says - "we are somewhat worse", and then he wins - are more exciting than good westerns. Thanks. Wish Magnus did something like that, except for his famous bongclouds.

A suggestion: link the videos where you have played similar or exact openings - it’s hard to find the one you were talking about, and you went through it very fast for those who aren’t as advanced Thank you danya

There’s really no “silver bullet” answer to this question. At any moment, Danya can be tired, hungry, sick, unfocused trying to teach, not to mention he rarely plays online rapid AND is playing 2300+ players who have a lower difference in skill. Plus, he has a tendency to over exaggerate being “outplayed.” Perhaps he is facing one/move cheaters or snipers. Again, it is simply impossible to say.

When you cover your eyes and calculate, what do you see? Is it visually seeing in your mind, or combination of seeing and knowing (knowing that a file is open or piece is hanging, etc)

@bughunter1766

7 ай бұрын

I'm somewhat able to do this as well, and yes you can see the entire board, but as you visualize the moves, the real board isn't confusing your mind with the pieces that are stationary. I cant do it all the time, but for instance while watching Agadmator a while back, I was able to see a 7 move mate in a game later while laying in bed, and do what-ifs on the position. So far the hardest part for me is that I can't remember the position well enough to play it out without missing things. I calculate a lot of checkmates and tactics in courses on Chessable and really try to calculate to the end every time, and that really helps this skill, but for me it is slow to improve. Probably like many things, the better you get at it, the faster you improve.

Hey does anyone know what previous speedrun game hes talking about where he goes in depth into the English attack?

For your new run could you play more d4/ c4? I’ve loved learning about the KID, Sicilian, French, and Caro from you, but as a c4/ d4 player I’ve always wanted to hear your ideas in those structures. Cheers to another speedrun!

Hey danya, you announced an update to the podia course but it s yet to come out, any news?

What about a strictly 10 + 15 speedrun? Your over-the-board explanations are best in those games, and you don't have to rely on pressing on your opponent's clock as much. I think most of us understand well enough by now the importance of time management, and even how to apply it, because even low rated players work on that skill.

Maybe for the next set of speedrun, Daniel can do review viewer's video similar to Coach Andres's "The coach reacts" series. It's very useful to see the common mistakes that players at different level experience. The student's explaining the moves as it goes is important since sometimes player make the right move for the wrong reason, can then the mistakes shows up 1 move later.

Do you give chess coaching? If so I’d be interested

I completely get restarting the speedrun due to the prevalence of suspicious players in the blitz pool at 2200+. Also, I imagine these higher level games take a lot more effort and get less viewership. On the other hand, I wanted to express my deep appreciation for these high level games and analyses. As a ~1900fide level player, I feel completely lost in complex positions like the one at 31:40, and seeing you break them down and make sense of them is quite enlightening. If this ends up being the last video of the speedrun, I'd nominate your recent game where you played Black vs the Jobava for "game (+analysis) of the run". That entire video was just incredible.

@Ghosty-yf5qb

This is the last video. Next week, Danya starts the "positional" speedrun. One thing that's important to note about Danya's speedruns is that their point is easy to misunderstand, and I believe that is your case as well. This is the "deep opening analysis" speedrun. While Danya does go over these games as a whole, he focuses on one aspect of the game, and what you learn may be limited. I believe that this new positional run, which centers around an aspect of the game highly neglected by the majority of chess players, is a change of pace well overdue. You, and perhaps many others, will gain far more value from the early stages of this new run than you might think. For example, say Danya is playing a 800 in the fried liver. A normal speedrun game might go over all of the complexities and traps arising from such an opening, some insane bishop sacrifice, the odd line or two if you're lucky. Alas, an individual such as yourself, who is well-seasoned with this content, may not derive any useful value from it. A positional run, however, may go into diatribes about the middlegames of the fried liver, the common ideas associated with it, which anyone below master-level can appreciate. If you think this is not true, you are underestimating Danya. I mean he leaked his opening preparation at one point, which should show the lengths he goes to deliver on his promised "theme." In essence, anticipate this new run. Enjoy it. And you may learn from its earlier games just as much as these later games.

Always going to watch these. I do wish when he restarts the speed run he would start at a higher level. Something like 1000-1200. Seeing a gm roll beginners for eight videos is always a bit of a let down after these higher quality games.
