I'm surprised Hikaru was so adamant about people hitting walls and never getting past the wall. Sure, lots of people do do that, but it's not impossible. A famous example is Roger Bannister breaking the 4 minute mile and then all of a sudden 'lots' of people were breaking 4 mins. Tyler had the benefit of already being incredibly good at at least one other thing that required fast tactical thinking with longer term strategy, so that whole mental aspect of the wall was mitigated and he already had some aspects of chess well developed before he even played the game.

He is stating a simple fact that is present across everything that requires practice. Everyone reaches a plateau or wall at some point. It isn't that they are unable to break through, it is they are unable to maintain the level of commitment needed to break through. When you practice, you are rewarded with an increased ability to do whatever you are practicing. It may be a very small amount, but it does become noticeable as you continue. That wall or plateau is when you are no longer improving no matter how much you practice. There are no gains for the effort invested. That can last for years and is extremely discouraging. Not many people have the desire and drive to continue putting in a lot of hours when there is no improvement. Our time is limited and valuable, so people will switch to something else that has caught their interest or devote less time to practice and more time to things they find enjoyable.

@ACSMEX

The wall is real. Tyler is talented, but each ELO point he gains is one ELO point closer to levels where EVERYONE is talented, but also studying chess and not only playing it. Playing and tactics can only take you so far. A tactic requires a mistake, which will be less and less common the higher he climbs. Still, the fact he can get that high is proof of how dedicated he is. I wish him well and hope that he gets a tutor if he really wants to keep grinding that ELO.

I mean, obviously. If you play league or even watch it at fairly high level, you learn that the strategic side of the game has a MASSIVE impact on wins, not just mechanics. Tyler is a great example of this, as it’s been pretty clear he is not the most mechanical player, but his knowledge on things like macro, micro, gold earned, wave control, match ups and so on is what got him that 5 role challenger. He actually LEARNED HOW and WHY things work in the game. But his streamer personality and his energetic side conflict with it so much that people might get the wrong idea and think he is just mindlessly brawling through matches. Put all that type of gameplay on a game as limited as chess and you have all the good sides without him “running it down for kills”. Super interesting tbh

I'm a long time fan of Tyler1, and he is the type of person who, if you tell him to chop down trees, he will literally chop the entire forest down and develop a workout routine around it.

Again,, he is actually just built different.

Been watching Tyler for years. He is literally the embodiment of “built different”. Dude sets a goal, then achieves it. If he came on stream and said he was going to build a space agency that competed with SpaceX, I would fully expect the comment “guys, building rockets is easy” to be uttered from his mouth about 8 months later. I can already hear it. “Guys, if you’ve been building rockets for the last 20 years and you haven’t gotten to mars yet…. What are you doing?”

Never underestimate the power of obsession.

Wait wtf 1900 is like the same elo that people that were serious about chess as kids reach

To be fair, the difference between rank 1 GM and a GM/IM is astronomical.

Also, he got the dad buff now

It will be interesting to see how he progresses from here. it's going to be really tough to beat master level players with that opening but I wish him luck. Hard to doubt this kid.

I thought the title said tyler1 is officially a chaos god

Bro is in best interest to make his "Dad lore" impeccable

He is truly built different

People meme about Tyler1 having autism powers but seeing stuff like this makes me unironically think that 😂😂

He is simply assembled alternatively

It's was losing to Erobb that changed things, not XQC

the problem with people playing since qge of 3 is that they learn and memorize games, so they dance under pre-set moves. Hence why many don't reach 5% or even 10%. Tyler has his own strategy: "what can my opponent do and how can I stop it?" based on what he has learned. Adapting to the situation that each match offers. Something that only the top % of anything truly achieve. Not saying that learning by-the-book will never get you there, but instead, that adapting will give you an upper hand in achieving it.

good for him, whoever he is, i wanna see how far he's going to take this

It still amazes me that whatever God you believe in made a perfect specimen like Tyler, and then gave you Erobb... There are complex mathematics at play here.

Hikaru is such a mega nerd it’s insane

He hit every single wall possible and broke through everything

Tyler sees stacks on Hikaru and he's coming for them.

You would struggle to become any kind of master let alone GM lol. You would certainly be better than Tyler though.

I will say the cow opening is definitely better against overconfident opponents which is rather common amongst those in the 1500-1800 rating range. In the higher elo, the more analytical opponents can more clearly understand the opening's weaknesses.

I think the cow is helping him now because no one knows him personally and analysed him before they play against him, but that might as well change once he is in really high Leo where the players know each other. Then the advantages could shrink in which case he must find alternative openings with which he could struggle because he is not used to it.

Levi is still trying to become a GM, but questions if he even can do it with enough training. Edit. Nvm 2000 in Rapid is certainly possible for everyone with enough training and he is just exceptionally fast additionally.

​​@@kaspervercruysse5710 he plays 10+ hours every session and considering he's a pro in other games he is not playing without learning so he gets in the amount of practice normal ppl would probably after 3-4 years but obviously this will stop once he reaches like 2100+ where your opponents are covering all the modern engine knowledge with similar skill level in chess so basically extremely hard to beat if you are not good at some level of theory Edit: Oh wait he said he'll quit at 2000, then fine he should be getting there quite comfortably with the way he's progressing

I'm not sure how big the pool of players in his bracket is but at some point if he climbs high enough it will shrink to the point where he will start getting rematched with same poeple over and over - if he hasn't diversified his opening by then I imagine people will have counters prepared.

honestly this is so fucking insane

Yeah, this is breaking chess records for sure.

It is unreal, the guy is a machine.

This just shows how underrated most e sport pros are or even those streamers that can compete on high elo.

1:24 For the guy who did the whole chess coaching streamers to bring a new audience in, it surprises me that Hikaru is so quick to tell Tyler1 to give up. He'd been playing for less than half a year at this point and Hikaru is saying "you've hit your ceiling, give up".

The man is a menace and I respect it honestly

I’m so glad he’s getting up there so he can start again with a new opening

I would only believe when he plays offline vs someone.

I know l don't have to say it but gap between 1800 and 2000 is much bigger than you think but you never know

Anyone that says it’s “brute force” is coping cuz he is smarter than them. There’s people that play chess their whole lifetime and can’t reach 1800. You can’t just “brute force” intellectual problems. If that was the case humanity would be able to “brute force” everything. That’s like saying a you can brute force crack a 20 character AES 256 bit encryption with an intel pentium chip from the 90s. Brute forcing that would take thousands of years unless you find a more intelligent way.

@@afjelidfjssaf The method of “brute forcing” is to exhaustively search all possibilities until you find the “right answer”. Many things can be brute forced whether it be a chess game, hacking an encryption key, finding the longest, shortest path in a graph. It’s just a matter of time to find the “right answer” using a brute force approach. I will just stop there. Hopefully you learned something from my comment.

@@waterflowzz yeah duhh i know what brute forcing is but you're just being obtuse by saying "uhm actually thats technically not brute forcing 🤓" what people mean when they say T1 is bruteforcing is that instead of studying theory he just keeps playing more games and improving through trial and error (which is what brute force is)

@@afjelidfjssaf you obviously don’t know what brute forcing is. Learning through trial and error is called experience but it doesn’t take going through every iteration of trial and error to learn. Such asininity, it’s unbelievable. And if it was brute forcing why isn’t everyone else able to obtain the same amount of chess skills through the same method of brute forcing? I mean if it is brute force like you claim then you or anyone else would be able to accomplish the same level of skills as long as you spend the same amount of time. Obviously he’s smarter than you kid, just face it. Your comments on here alone is proof of that, without a doubt.

This is like hitting diamond in your first year of playing league

This made me chuckle

Tyler actually playing a balanced game, Imagine if it was made today people would call for queen nerfs or something.

I think a lot of people don't get that, how much of mastery and improvement is really a psychological phenomenon. When you master your own mind, you really unlock so much potential. I learnt this myself when I made more improvements over the last year in language learning and piano than I have in the last 10 years. Most of us are not aware, but we harbour a lot of psychological inhibitions that prevent us from unlocking our full state of concentration. Whether it be insecurities, fear of embarassment, or other such things, we "limit" ourselves in order to prevent ourselves from the pain of loss or being inadequate. What Tyler has mastered is the art of COCENTRATION, and focusing on his desire to improve and be better. He doesn't worry about looking stupid, he doesn't fear failure the same way. He just keeps playing and stays FOCUSED on whatever it is he's doing because his only desire is to reach the next goal. He's learned how to block out all the noise distractions and insecurities. I don't think he's necessarily "built different" in that he possess a special gift others don't have, but he has achieved mastery over his own mind through perseverence and desire.

This is gold, “we limit ourselves to prevent ourselves from the pain of loss or being inadequate.” The fear of not achieving your set goal and the feeling of disappointment as a result of coming short of that goal is enough to deter people from setting new goals and actually trying their best.

@@dzmanhooo8602 I'm not just talking about chess, but everything he's done. I used to watch Tyler back when he first started and came up as a variety streamer, I've never watched him play league. Tyler 1 has an obsessive mindset that extends beyond just 1 accomplishment, and I noticed it fairly early on. CS Major (LUL), bodybuilding, football player, runescape addict, then league addict. Then he grinded out being a variety streamer providing some of the best content during that time, and he would even endure getting trolled and griefed in pubg and dayz or whatever back in the day. Then of course, he went on to become an obsessive league player and get challenger in all 5 roles, etc. It's unfathomable how he's able to sink so much time into things. I don't know if he's an addict or just has superhuman willpower, probably a bit of both. Now you can say yeah he got lucky because his ban gave him notoriety, but if he didn't have the personality to carry his variety streamers he would have faded out if was just your average toxic nerd league streamer. The culmination of all his traits in combination with his ethic I think played into him getting his lucky break.

I don't watch Tyler but he is deffo the prove that if you grind and have the motivation you can achieve anything lmao. Everytime he sets himself a goal he fucking destroys it, crazy grinds.

back in his college-dorm days he was grinding lol for 30hrs on the regular lol this dude can do anything

Hikaru = Hater

You can cope as much as you want and pretend like what I'm about to say is not true, but Tyler1 is simply a very high IQ individual that is simultaniously extremely low in neuroticism, which means that he has very high levels of never ending ambition pumping through him for no reason. It's simply how he was born, his brain is not normal. This things have been obvious forever if you are even remotely familiar with how dominant of world class player he trully has been in league of legends as well. Some people are just born with Golden Brains, and a Golden Brain will not necessarily manifest in wanting to be a mathemathician of phisychist. Sometimes that Golden Brain will simply strive to be the absolute best at some random game, just because.

excuses for the lazy

Tyler1 is actually internet persona legend status at this point.. He just keeps popping up in all sorts of things even outside of LoL.

Tyler hitting chess day on chest day.

The opening is good in rapid, the slow progression is good to do in a fast pace and the enemy get‘s pressured and fumbles

getting 2k with his style can be possible, hes really good at recognizings those patterns, that will work up to some point, maybe he can grind even further in rapid, but like this he will never get something like a title or whatever, first of he would have to play classical games and in those games those, let the opponent overextend strategies will not work anymore, because you have 2hours to think. i mean he can prove me wrong for all i care but i dont see him succeeding like this in classical chess
