[Old-Dog]

How can someone dislike his video.
So much hardwork appreciate it man

[seanunderscorepry]

Nice try, but you've forgotten the bongcloud.

[castravetdragos]

Wow, one like is not enough to pay the respect you deserve for all of the efforts you had put in this video.

[passageenBleu]

I was looking for 'philosophy of chess strategies', so this is an excellent result. Only a few minutes to appreciate the wealth of this channel. Subbed.

[jerrellcrosby]

respect for doing this for 3 plus hours well done deserves more views and likes.

[tentaclefather]

I subscribed just because the amount of effort in this video

[shaiithenaai]

All the chess theory I'll ever need. Thank you.

[azizgerma]

what a great job that you've done, you deserve better .

[mikereilly]

My heart my soul! I hope you get a bajillion subs for this. you just earned one!

[ramanujamcharis]

My friend, you seem like a prodigiously intelligent human. I hope your channel becomes huge. Thanks for your video on openings.
I know little in comparison to you on these matters and hence my advice may be superfluous however I would counsel you to play longer formats of chess matches where you'd be able to ensure higher quality.

Also a small request: can you possibly analyze all the tactically imaginative matches(decided by you ofc) of Korchnoi, Capablanca, Bronstein, et. al.

[jurjenvanderhoek]

Tip for starting chess players: it is better to first learn just one opening and focus on the different endgames than focusing on all the openings. If you do not understand how to finish a game, you are likely to lose any game.

[WH]

Finally, I is so hard to find a chess opening on YouTube or google when they don’t really explain

[MrShakes]

@8:55 "Black got forked... heh, f0rked"

[myles]

The Sodium Attack is not shown. I can't believe this video left out such a classic, fundamental attacking opening.

[arunpolekar]

Now that's real hardwork

I bet the raw recording was actully 4-6 hours but you might have edited it

[salatieljyrustumanan]

Ah, yes, the Kadas. My favorite weird opening that is aggressive af when played with tactical aggression. They say it's bad but it actually controls 2 squares that early Queen attackers like to go to AND makes a nice way for the rook yo enter the game when you rid of the light square bishop.

[hideoakb]

Thank you i dreamed of this video. Thanks yt for reaching me now. Better late than never.

[drewe]

The transvestite opening could have been added: 1.d3 d4 2. Kd2 ... 3. Qe1 ... 4. Kd1 swapping king and queen!

[estebanlegare]

Good job man that was very informative to say the least
