    I love how eloquent Levy is in this video, whereas, in his more recent ones he’s straight up roasting you.
  • @36Corey
    I just started learning chess and I'm 28. That queens gambit show made me wanna learn lmao. Thanks for your videos!!
  • @rng8072
    if i play anyone and they know what an opening is, i've already lost
  • @traplover6357
    Best pleb summary of this video: Memorize the London System and Kings Indian and superfocus on them for life!

    A Polite and relaxed version of levy lol
  • Do not follow the setup openings blindly. Be aware that the opponent can still capture the pieces you put forward, based on their opening. Just look out for possible dangers before making a move.

    Back in my childhood I used to spend hours and hours playing chess, and just a couple of months back, during the corona crisis, I started playing again. I got the love back, the passion. I am so glad to find great people like you uploading these videos. An easy way to understand the fundamentals of chess.
  • @ziwuri
    I know there's a very low chance that Levy ever sees this, but I'd love to see long form content that just briefly explains, let's say, the top 10-15 most popular openings and what to do against them. Would be great stream content, maybe a five part series, maybe just dropping a fat 90 minute VOD on the main channel. Would help out a lot so I don't have to go out of my way learning every opening out there, just see the general ideas of the most important openings to remember.
  • @EDaBeast
    The only opening ive ever seen and learned is the bongcloud, i didn’t know there was anything else
  • @ShreyasGupta07
    Still can't understand how this guy has so less subs and views Edit: Oh man I remember making this comment when this guy had less than 5k subs here, and now look at him, lets go Levy
  • @LowSociety
    Why did you let Ron sacrifice himself instead of you in The Sorcerer’s Stone?
  • @danb6118
    Really helpful and well made video: - Clear and concise - Different levels of complexity but keeping it "simple" throughout - Good starting point to delve deeper Started on specific openings (your videos) but good thing I found this as they feel like a continuation of basic concepts (for total beginner at least).
  • @3xxiled
    Finally a video that really explains it, without doing complicated quick moves using terminology I don’t understand, thank you!
  • I'm really appreciating your coaching material. Your getting really good at teaching and making concepts understandable.
  • @SkyyWalker2137
    I honestly love your twitch and I have to say your tutorials are probably the best quality out there! I’m really surprised that you don’t have more viewers. I think you should do more tutorials like that because they honestly make me want to play more chess.
  • @dukepande
    Levy is too polite and civilised here.... It's making me uncomfortable
