Danya has singlehandedly elevated me from 1000 to 1450 rapid in 3 months. A deity amongst us men.

[colefirth]

I'm obsessed with watching this man play chess, and then not even play chess. Vicariously stomping 1600s

[grahamdugan]

Danya puts so much effort into explaining concepts and answering questions that to him must seem so pedantic yet he does so with such grace and humility, I feel like the entire chess community is blessed for having such an awesome Russian school boy teacher putting out so much high quality content. Cheers mate!

[rbarreira]

Opponent: looks at the board.

Danya: The game is essentially over, our opponent crumbles and allows us a relatively easy win.

[TomB]

Danya and Aman's thorough explanations in their speedruns have boosted the level of play for us casuals by 2000%

[michaelwhinnery]

Daniel went into full GM mode ... Brutal attacks.

[zacmrd]

This many games in one video is a gift, enjoying this speedrun so far.

[dromadrosis]

I have the same feeling time and time again watching these videos: it is like seeing a magician performing his show for a vast audience. Once again, Daniel: thank you so much!

[eldaroplachko]

Hey, Danya i wanna sincerely thank u bro.I started playing chess Nov 20 2023.Now i’m 1700.

I have some spine issues and often it’s hard for me to think i even took 1, 5 month gap cuz my head was just blurry all the time.

but as i can compare to others it’s pretty decent result

Mostly thanks to ur educational content and ur personality so pleasing to watch and follow ⭐️

[exceligence]

Thumbs up! This opening with black from previous vids has helped me much against London openings.

[michigan]

Danya! Thanks for helping me cross 1200!!
