How to destroy Nelson : Just let him destroy himself early game

[FoMScratch]

Nelson literally made me want to learn all these early mates just so I can learn how to avoid them.

[drcrocodile]

I've played Nelson hundreds of times. His range of play seems to oscillate between 600 and 2200. Sometimes he plays his usual cheesy openings, and sometimes he mixes it up and plays extremely well.

[davidrobins]

Nelson's got an unhealthy obsession with his queen. In my experience, swapping queens off as soon as you get a chance works pretty well; without his favourite piece, Nelson quickly loses the plot. Just stay solid in the opening, watch out for any queen-related shenanigans he tries, swap queens if you can, and wait for him to blunder. Once he hangs a piece (and he will) he quickly self-destructs.

Nelson started feeling like a joke very shortly after I found this channel, but he's definitely the biggest roadblock for people who don't have anyone teaching them past how the pieces move. I really appreciate how Levy will intentionally play worse moves in complicated positions so that the game runs more similarly to how people who need this content might play.

[cypher]

This could be a good series where you take on each BOT in order and show strategies to beat them.

[voltsu]

I really like that Levy says "we" when he's playing chess by himself instead of "I, " because there's a calming sense that we're playing together and he's helping us all along.

Thank you.

The issue with Nelson is he follows the top Stockfish's move for the first 8ish moves - well after the Scholar's Mate threat is finished. So basically, he plays at 3200 elo for 8 moves before he's allowed to make a mistake.

[joshuavarghese]

I mean, once you play a couple of games against him, you realise he blunders his queen every game. All you need to do is not get scholar's mated. Keep your defense up and develop pieces.

[duckfat]

I love how Nelson can play like a grandmaster for 4 moves and then blunder every piece he has

[adnang]

I'm 850 elo, and I've beaten Nelson a couple times. Although I can't beat Isabel to save my life

[joserose]

I've played Nelson countless times and lost from foolish blunders even after learning to defend the Scholar's mate. I must say, the criss-cross apple sauce checkmate felt like sweet and swift justice. Thanks for the video 👍

You can immediately punish the early Queen attack if playing as White in a better way
1. e4, e5
2.Nf3, Qf6
3. Bc4, Qh6
4. Nxe5, Qg5
5. Qf3, Qxe5 (this does give up a knight but you immediately get back material)
6. Qxf7+, Kd8
7. Qxf8+, Qe8
8. Qxg7
You can just play it by ear from here, because this is when the bot's moves start to differ between games but it's very easy to beat him after this sequence of moves, just have solid principles and don't blunder anything

[benji]

Nelson is the reason I tried to get better at chess

[mrcxydv]

The early queen attack speaks for itself

[ItsKhad]

would be cool to make this a full serie with every episode taking on a bot (that has a precise playstyle) to teach us how to play against different opponent and their strenghts / weakness.

[mikes]

Super helpful Levy! I like that we can practice playing the bots after watching the techniques and really get a handle on how to play them.

[jackknipe]

Nelson literally blundered his queen against me on move 5. No 1300 plays like this.
