Dear Eric, Thank you so so much for making a video about Alien Gambit 👽 The first thing I read when I woke up, is that you made video about Alien Gambit, that me and my dear community invented 👽❤ Thank you so much!!! Thank you!!! Qxg3!!!!!! So romantic move!!!!!!! 👽❤

Tal took his opponents into deep dark forests. This guy took you into Area 51.
-
We need a Predator Defence against the Alien Gambit
-
Eric when his opponent has an opening trap: I need to cool down and think about what my opponent wants to do Me when my opponent has an opening trap: yummy pawn, yummy piece, oh no my king
-
Queen sack + quiet move is a great combo. I’m too afraid to miss something.
-
Still can't believe I missed rf2. Reckon I would've had you if you'd berserked and we'd gone into the same variation. Really happy you uploaded this, because I was hoping to see your side of it.
-
I remember when these two played in an arena and Eric was accepting all the romantic sacrifices and just hoping it wasn't checkmate 😅
-
The alien gambit really shows results on blitz and bullet. It's harder to get compensation for the lost piece on rapid
-
"I feel like this is one of those Tic Tok traps" lol
-
If there is some way to orchestrate a bullet match against Witty Alien i feel like that would be top tier content 🙏
-
This is one of those perfect examples of 'I don't need to win from stockfish, I just need to win from you'. When you create a game so insane that people are very likely to make blunders. I definitely would have made a couple in a few places here.
-
Really well played. The great public usually love attackers, who doesn't? But there is a poetic beauty in keep the calm, dodge all the threats, block all the attacks, then suddenly counter-play and mate. That Queen sacrifice REALLY looked like a Judo tactics, using the violence of the attacker to finish him off all of a sudden. Impressive composture and timing.
-
that was an excellent queen sac and quiet move combo for mate
-
Clicked because I didn't know what the Alien Gambit was, but then realized I've faced this opening before! I got it about a month ago, but didn't know it was a named gambit; I thought it was just a creative novelty. In my game, I found the correct opening sequence, but after Bc4+, I played ...e6. I also played far from optimal, but was eventually able to simplify while up in material and won the endgame.
-
13:16 Oh no, my Queen!
-
that queen sac that you found in like 10 seconds, i would have struggled to find in a classical game
-
5:58 "happy new year, stephen" 😂😂
-
Wow, this was such an awesome video. New opening tech expertly handled by Eric into a stunning queen sac. Nice one
-
Hope you're having a wonderful start to your new year! Keep up the great work.

Been a while since Eric sweated like that. Would love to see the heart rate counter for this game.
