I far prefer this format of playing against anyone in the pool. Playing against 1000-1800 was getting repetitive, and this is my favorite series you do as it allows us to see your thought process and reaction in real time rather than in post-commentary

1) you don't need to make it entertaining, its entertaining as it is and 2) it's really ok if it's longer than an hour

My entire chess learning process consists of watching "Guess the Elo" and "How to Win at Chess" and I could not be happier with my progress

17:15 it’s reassuring to see that even at Gotham’s level, the top 0.1%, you’re still not beyond making 1 move queen blunders in rapid.

This is actually great. I like watching Levy get worried. He respects his opponents moves so much more and you can see how giddy he is to comment on his opponent’s strategy the whole time.

Gotham if you want to try something different, for a new concept of "How to Win at Chess, " you should hide the ELO of your opponent from yourself, and then at the end of the game guess what you think their ELO is based off of how they played, tactics they used, etc. then you can explain your thought process of why you guess xyz ELO, and maybe some tips on how they can best improve. It would be a combination "How to Win at Chess" and "Guess the ELO."

The first opponent with name at the end UNAM stands for Universidad nacional autonoma de mexico, one of the best univerisities in mexico and all Latam, they are the champions at college level chess at Mexico, curious data point,

I definitely enjoyed the higher level chess in this series. I would love to see more of this

[TossiCheeser]

Wouldn't it be good to give the "Win at chess" episodes a theme like win with d4, win with traps, win with leningrad, win against caro-kann etc. Because I feel like that would make the episodes more rewatchable. One would return to those episodes whenever one would search for something specific. I can't even count how many times I watched episodes about specific openings or traps because I realized that I forgot some things about them and needed a reminder.

This is my favorite episode! I went from 1200 to 2200 due to you, and I missed the old days when to win at chess I just had to watch a "how to win at chess" video from Gotham! Now I can start winning again 🎉

[Arianschko]

I was once paired up against your second opponent and won in an opposite colored bishop endgame. Crazy how there is a link between me and a master now.

I've seen Levy talk about analyzing each game after you play it to get better, and I really love that he shows us the exact process of playing the game and then reviewing it. I really appreciate these videos, keep it up.

"it could be a cheater"
that'd be the fun part tbh 😭

[ltdericjones]

I watch almost daily & absolutely LOVED this episode!

I also liked some other commenters idea of having ‘win at chess’ w/ x opening / ‘win around chess’ guess the elo version as well.

Ps. Thanks for the free Levi bot availability, was generous to share for free & super helpful & fun! Was a brilliant idea to add to supplement the courses.

0:27 what a brilliant way to advertise for the clash of claims event lmao

[heattorture]

I'd say a mix would be better, like 2 vs low rated Subs and 2 vs random search pool, as the majority of people are much lower rated, seeing how you deal with lower rated opponents is easier to take in, for me at least.

[mannylokzzz]

Rapid format is excellent for 2000+ elo. 5 min blitz for sub 2000 to allow for more games with heavy emphasis on middlegame planning/precise endgame play. Love the series. Thanks dude

And seeing more of what your saying with the computer you can see the connection not just with pawns only now continuation presents its self in best moves situation.yeah its fun and dicey❤😊
