See the highest danger level is the other player. If I attack the other player they can't even play a move anymore

This and the advice on pawn structure really helped me turn a blundered match as black with a material disadvantage and my queen on the run into a solid win with said queen as the checkmating piece. I am so glad I discovered this channel.

Quick tip that helped me a lot, once your pieces are developed to their best squares, start looking for pawn moves because any piece move would mean you're moving your good piece from a good square to a bad square... Seems obvious but many people don't know this.

The adjectives handpicked to describe the various "noobs" are hilarious.
I watched this video once and it had an immediate positive impact on my game. I’ve found some devastating combinations while under threat that has netted me a Queen and handful of Rooks. Your approached forced me to step back and see the whole board rather than being overly defensive. Thanks!
“These 2 words will evolve your chess” My mind : Get good
I used to play chess when I was 7 or 8 years old in tournaments and such but then quit. Now I am 20 and starting to return to the game and I‘m absolutely loving it. Your videos are absolutely fantastic information and really enjoyable to learn with. Thank you!
Danger levels is when i forget to take the chicken out of the freezer and mom says shes on her way home
I love how informal this is. I love the way you move your hands around and just how everything seems so clean and efficient. I will defiantly use this so that I don’t keep loosing valuable pieces without thinking about how I can counter attack.
Danger levels is indeed a game changer. I always was very good at understanding pins, forks, skewer etc... But when I was under attack I either always retreaded, exchanged or removed the attacker, basically dealing directly with the threat Only recently I have grasped this idea of ignoring the threat to make a stronger one and my +200 elo in a day says a lot about this ahahahah
Last time I was this early Levy still had his pieces against Hikaru
Yeah yeah, danger levels and actual technical strats are lame. The true two words you need are BANG BANG and Juicer.

This is the least complex way I have seen the concept of an "in between move" explained. This is amazing.
I read a couple of book, about or by Bobby Fisher many years ago, this was the strategy he promoted. He seemed to use more aggressive metaphors as I recall but I learned that, sometimes, the best defense response is a better offensive move. I love your vids, you are very clear and I learn a lot.

I recently found your channel. I have to thank you. After watching this episode yesterday, I played a game of chess (vs computer) and used your advice. I was able to find some amazing moves (for me) that I typically wouldn’t have found. Although, going back through the game one of those moves where I forked the queen and a rook, I missed a checkmate. Ah well..! But this is how we learn. Thanks again. Love the channel.
Another brilliant instructional video from GC. Thanks, Levy!

LOL, Levy's a Great Guy but he isn't doing this for "free". there is significant income from all the hits and eyeballs delivered to advertisers...and paid courses etc. Levy deserves to make a good living! Also, I suspect his hourly rate for private tutoring/coaching is multiples higher than what it was before millions of people built up his rep. I bet there are very well-off players willing to spend big bucks for private lessons...which, again, is totally deserved. But make no mistakes, very little on the commercial web is truly free. Advertisers pay a lot to access your brain.
I have never played chess seriously but to be able to correctly surmise the play was Rook > E5 on the second example felt good. I love the hands-off approach you have to teaching. Will definitely keep learning now 😅
I just discovered this amazing video, sorry it took me so long. More on this topic, please! :) The examples (until the final rehash after the 14 minute mark) are AMAZING -- clear and precise. Perfect for my students! (I'm a chess coach.)
your channel has rekindled interest in chess, playing and practicing more than ever- it's amazing
The principle of danger levels is easy enough to understand. What makes it difficult to apply for beginners (me included) is that you have to precisely calculate, usually 3 or more moves deep, while trying to prove yourself wrong, not right. And quickly finding the most dangerous out of many possible continuations is the what beginners struggle the most with.
I was playing a game the position was 8/8/2Q5/2qpbp2/2k5/4PP1P/8/1R4K1 w - - 0 1 and it was white to play I was playing white and I played Rc1+ (That does follow up on a checkmate in 12 but I didn't see it because it's 12 moves) he played Bc3 and I hear a word echo in my mind deflection so I took the bishop with check and he made the move Kc3 taking the rook and I take the queen and I went on to win the game 16 moves later, if he moved to b4 not only is it a mate in 2 after Qc5+ Ka4 is forced and Ra3# is checkmate thanks for the tip.

Retired and have been playing chess now for 3 months (haven't played since college in the 60's). Totally consumed by the game. The Netflix series, "Queens Gambit" had a lot to do with that. Your instructional videos are very helpful but wouldn't have as much value to me but for the "pause button". I have learned most of the openings and defense strategies but still consider myself a beginner. Keep up the good work! What a fabulous and complicated game.

I also giggle because we use the same expressions in German on the rare occasions we're being ironic and sarcastic (yes it does indeed happen, I'm 35 and I've done it nearly 6 times already in only one lifetime).
This year you get the Grandmaster rank, Levy.
I use different words for the same type of thing designating different types of combinations. This is a relatively simple chess lesson, more on the level of Class C maybe, but I think that the examples he gives are interesting and it is good to be reminded of these concepts because they are easy to overlook.
Honestly this helped so much. Forks have been increasingly less annoying

Hey Levy, could you make a video about moving the king out of check? Sometimes it's not so difficult to do and you might have limited options, but other times there are so many different ways to get out of check that it's hard to make the right decision, especially under a time constraint. I was just wondering if there are patterns to look for that can help make an informed move in a timely manner. Thanks!
