idk why I get so excited when he says "welcome to those watching on youtube" it's like "that's me!"

[cunucky]

Thanks Daniel for all your teaching. Hope you are taking care of your health and spirit :)

He can be a best chess coach ever. The way he explains everything is easy to understand, and so much logical.

[thomasrisden]

Been playing sloppy lately, but when you drop new videos it always helps me to get my thought process realigned. Hope we can get more frequency from your speed runs. Best chess channel

[mahirbhatt]

I was 700 when I started watching Daniel Naroditsky speedrun. I only learned from this speedrun and reached now 1400 Elo in blitz online. I never used any other resource. Thank You Daniel!

[ericfrederickson]

Danya, please upload speedrun videos more frequently! They are your best content by far imo.

[MeritedMasterOfTheUSSR]

[danjeory]

tempted to start playing the 4 knights again to try this Glek

[willzang]

the tactical awareness and board vision is so wild

[adamwolsey]

Daniel, I have decided that you are to chess what Malcolm Gladwell is to writing. Your ability to take complex topics (topic in this case) and make sense of it for the layman, is unparalleled in my opinion. Thanks for your work.

Danya: Pause the video and find the winning move
Me: *Doing my impression of the drooling guy putting the blocks in the wrong holes*
