When you spend hundreds of hours studying a rare variation to insane depth and the first time you unleash it Danya posts an hour long deconstruction on how to destroy it ☠

Ur perception of how long it takes to analyze a line to a certain depth is off by a few hundred hours. Mightve taken him 2-3 hours to analyze with engine and then an hour or two to memorize the lines/main ideas.

Kudos for the opponent for playing 13 moves deep in the theory, and then on 14th move finding an improvement over the game betweeen grandmasters. What a feat for 2000 ELO! I want to be as strong in chess as he.

And in his other game against Danya he played an interesting novelty that caught Danya off-guard. Dude is just a wandering monster in the opening.

As fun as it is to watch Danya tear through the pre-2000 range in these speedruns, nothing compares to the last third of the speedruns where he gets above 2000. At that point he always has the chance to play someone super under-rated who knows their openings and turn the game into a slugfest. Danya's strongest skill is his tactics especially in the endgame so opponents who make him flex that are the best.

Well, honestly something seemed wrong with his opponent. The way he pre-moved few moves in position where there were several choices for black seemed odd. It seemed to me as he was using a database. Not engine but database for the opening. But of course I could be wrong!

@@howlingwolf317 this guy danya is playing against is easily 2300+ if not 2500+ online. I just took a look at his profile and he beat a 2600 in blitz, this guy is probably secretly a GM who does not want us to know his identity and desperetly wants to play some rapid against danya so he sandbagged the system to play against him

@@howlingwolf317 He's already played two smurfs this speedrun, one who was literally rated 2500 blitz. The last speedrun had AWFUL 2000s who were blundering early middlegames and only a couple of them gave him a run for his money. Give your head a shake.

This video was incredible. Absolute masterclass put on by Danya not only in his insane ability to convert extremely high level chess concepts into tangible, understandable ideas for his viewers, but also in how he perfectly communicates his passion for the game and the sheer entertainment that can come from games such as these. The analysis section especially where he demonstrates all the confounding lines that make the Sicilian so crazy, you could feel his joy and excitement from such a cool position. Thank you for this wonderful video!

Although you did highlight it in the video I still cannot believe your opponent's preparation. I found it very interesting how you can immediately sniff out a well-prepared opponent and yet keep your cool and play based on pure principle. We are all privileged to have access to content of this caliber. Thank you, GM Danya.

It does kind of make sense that he can do that, given that he's used to playing against GMs, but it is definitely impressive.

This was my favorite game of the speedruns so far!

Not Naroditsky losing it at 1:06:17 😂 My guy saw the juiciest, most mouth watering line ever and it shows in his reaction

What I love the most about these is how informationally dense they are. There are people on KZread who play longer games and explain, but the number of observations daniel makes about the position between each move is just absurd. Definitely helped me understand how to think about chess, they all add up over time.

That's why I prefer the 3. e6 Grand Prix when playing with black pieces. The g6/fianchetto Grand Prix is very sharp from the black's side and often you have to either know theory or make only moves while white gets a huge initiative and potentially a checkmating attack with natural play. The e6 variation takes a lot of the fun out for the white player and the moves in the middlegame are much more natural.

You're killing it with the analysis and the in depth lines. Seeing why bishop b7 vs b6 matters so much was great. So interesting.

Holy molly! What a crazy game, so many x-rays tactics until the end, amazing

The fact that I was literally looking for a video on the Sicilian Grand Prix an hour ago, but you were playing white instead of black and you're coming out with this now? Unbelievable haha

I've seen close to every speed run video you have posted and many multiple times. This one is one of the top 10 you have made maybe top 5

these videos have made me better at chess. but the biggest skills for me to become legitimately good, patience and calculating, will always elude me lol

This tutorial was exceptional. Danya's expertise in breaking down advanced chess strategies is unparalleled. His enthusiasm is contagious. His knowledge is vast. His teaching is unmatched. Unmatched, really. I don't think there is anything equivalent on KZread, to be honest. The only thing I wish for sometimes is content aimed at advanced players. You notice all explanations are reduced to the lowest common denominator. But that's my only critique.

the games have been amazing lately!

Narodisky ability to articulate his thoughts properly is a blessing to upcoming chess players. Thank you Danya

The analysis this time might the most valuable so far, so much crazy lines and concepts to pick up. I'm 1800+ (also because of your videos) and it was pure gold for me, thank you sensei Danya!

Another beautiful game! It’s truly a treat watching Danya work his way through super complex positions

Danya just thinks so fast...at 31:40 "I calculated up to this point!" I would had had to think much longer. Also what a fun game!! I am hoping we get at least one more caro-kan fantasy game!

Awesome vids danya. You've helped me improve a ton. 1300-1570

This is just an incredible video, thank you Danya!

Just came here from the previous delightful video. This makes my evening :)

Fantastic game and post analysis! 🙌🏻

When you approach the 2000's the speedruns really hit their stride. I understand why you start the runs at 1000 so forgive me, but I wish they started at 1500 just so we could get to these kind of games faster. Looking forward to a video recap of you playing this line OTB ;) Edit: "and some technique is required" gives me huge "this is left as an exercise for the reader" and I love it

thumbnail was goated on this one

Love the energy and excitement for the crazy calculations and the engine lines. Great explanations

Amazing video, friend! Thank you so much! 😍

The content in this speed run is incredible. Have to watch every episode multiple time over. Very instructive.

One of your best speedrun videos! You struck the perfect balance of which details to go into, both during the game and post mortem. Kudos to the opponent's understanding of the opening and strong play.

That was amazing! What a great game!

One of the best chess analyses ever !!

Thank you so much for these speedruns and giving invaluable insights, theory and analysis, and techniques!! I have learnt so much from you! Thanks a lot again Danya!

This is so awesome

Amazing video. Great game. Awesome knowledge and prep from white as well. Also, the Thumbnail for this vid is sick.

astonishing game, marvelous play

Fantastic speed chess in this game. In the early 70s I was playing in the Edinburgh Open with a friend from Yugoslavia who was the only GM in England at the time, and he played this line as white against 3 former British champions and the current champion and won all the games with sacrificial mating attacks. They nearly all made the mistake of playing Nf6.

Totally active instruction very good Thank you Daniel

Amazing analysis by Danya and one of the best games of this speedrun so far! Kudos to the opponent for the brilliant prep too.

absolutly beautifull video. i saved it. insane game, lines, analysis, everything. AMAZING in every way. keep it up danya!

Que video bom, danya monstro demais

I have seen some grand prix videos. But none of them made me play this opening. But this video which was supposed to refute the play compelled me to pick it up.

By far Daniel is the best chess streamer on the net! Although there are times that I can't grasp all the complexities of a position or a move, still it's amazing to see those unbelievable GM explanations 🙏

Most exciting game so far!
