Hikaru calculating olives at 21:32 😂
I just wish the rest of the games were shown! This was so incredible.
The title should be light-bullying Levy for an hour straight
19:12 lol they moved their head at the same time
as a person who watches ludwig and a bunch of chess youtubers it was a huge surprise to me to find out he’s a GM
Ban that last dude, holy shit
I'm guessing stupid took is a reference to "fool of a took," so Hikaru actually did get the reference
Annoying Orange and epic rap battles were so good in their prime
As someone who lost 80 pounds on keto I can definitely say that everyone is different and not every diet works for everyone. But it sure did wonders for me.
Levy's style of "support" is exactly my kind of motivation. Sometimes you need your guy to beat you up a little when you're slipping. xD
Levy was definitely omitting a few details from that camp story. Lol.
What an amazing ending)) Ludvig is good chess commentator!
nice battle there
That's the best and the worst (as a new chess player) ending a 1 hour+ video could have. Better than any movie! xD

I had to rewind the entire 4th match bc they started talking ab olives and I completely zoned out of the game for their conversation lol
how do I join this tourney?
"I mean, I'm not gonna eat olives straight out the jar" why not all my homies pop open a good can of black olives and get 400% of their daily value of sodium
This is just ludwig doubting his intelligence for an hour straight
Is there part 2 for the rest?
