your opening: -600 elo your middlegame: 6000 elo

"The thing about 600 elo chess is one game you're playing Magnus Carlsen, the next you're playing someone who doesn't know right from left" > proceeds to do both in the same game
-
Finally a relatable chess game analysis
-
"... OR if he sees all this fuck shit" is my favorite chess analysis of all time
-
There are only two types of players @600 elo those on their way up and those on their way down. That’s why it’s so crazy.
-
you started the game as a 600 elo player and ended as Mikhail Tal.. ggs
-
beginning: doesnt understand the scandinavian is actually kinda bad for black, ending: discovers 7 move rook sacrifice involving a double bishop mate
-
That was a beautifully horrific game. Keep it up lmao
-
681 spotted a 7 move sequence involving a rook subtracted by knight sacrifice by bait leading to apparent (since it's actually defendable but the defense is not easy to spot either) mate in 5 by king manipulation, discovered check and last minute bishop support from the dynamic knight im at a loss for words

This is why magnus has to step down
-
Gotham really have to see this video I cant explain my 600elo moves
-
the most obsurd one I've heard was "I was trying to distract the opponent" WHEN THERE WAS A HANGING PIECE THERE
-
The opening in the beginning is the called the scandinavian. The main line is you take his pawn, he takes back with the queen and you develop your knight, attacking his queen. Yes, he's technically developing his queen for free, but not really, cause it's not good practice to take your queen out so early since it can be attacked, and now your opponent is developing for free while you're hiding your queen. that's what tempo is.

You’ve got some great calculation for a 600
-
900 elo here... so this is why im losing all my games lately
-
fianchetto = one of those fancy structures that the king hides behind and sucks off the bishop. gotcha
-
FM here. This video was really entertaining; you've got a knack for explaining things in an engaging way. Best of luck on the way to 700 and onwards - you showed good self-awareness in this video, which will help a lot!

Normal person's response to the clinically insane Scandy opening
-
1350ish player here. That was the funniest and most brilliant chess video I have ever seen. And yes, saccing the rook on c5 was the right move, even you you don't seem to have understood why. Put very simply, if he recaptures, you can put your plan into effect, and if he doesn't, you've won a knight.

The finishing was really good for 600 elo 👍
