*Hafu just vibing*
Commentary: Truly 5D moves.

[ivaneiaraujo]

I see that a lot of people are thinking that the commentators are over complimenting Hafu, but here is the thing, until one month ago she only knew the pieces movements. It is very rare to see someone improve so fast.
Her moves are incredible because she should not be seeing those tactics being a begginer in the game. Not that the moves per si are that difficult for any experienced player.

I know Hafu from Among Us and clicked on this out of curiosity. Her status as one of the scariest impostors makes sense now.

[J.R.Swish]

Great move by Daniel, infiltrating the PogChamps arena, collecting some intel to get his pupil Charlie an advantage when he makes his epic return to the battle grounds. Good one

"she's skipping his turn, that's a new level of disrespect"

She just knew any move from white was still losing 😂

[andrevitalpardue]

The fact that chess is cool now is awesome. When I was playing, it was just the me and the loneliest nerds.

[omfgjegkedermig]

Pretty wild to see so many petty comments trying to minimize hafus victory.
They're just salty long term players that are jealous of her fast improvement.

[litapd]

hafu is the godliest gamer i know. i don't know of a single competitive game where she does not rise to the top within weeks of starting. started as a wow pro, then hearthstone, league, tft, runeterra, among us, and chess.

there are people better than her at a specific game, but i've never seen someone be so good at so many games so quickly. she's really just that hardworking with a great growth mindset

[KM-jbvg]

Hafu slowly leaning more over and her legs just getting higher in frame is so funny and cute

[NSACinder]

Hafu is just one of those people who can pick up something and be great at it. Reminds me a lot of Reckful r.i.p. She was always one of the most impressive hearthstone players to me.

[coolsquirtlesquad]

All I know is how the pieces move individually. I have no idea how to really play chess so why do I get hooked to chess videos??

[jasongent]

Levy, at 4:46 - "Hey, you're disrespecting my student!"
Levy, at 10:35 - "The *only* thing that could happen here is if Hafu disconnects. She's just playing lights out chess."

That's game recognizing game right there, folks.

(Nothing but love, Levy...I just had to point it out.)

[wabbajocky]

i like how everyone's in their room but fintan's just in the void

[acsu]

Daniel's impression is pretty solid LOL I also like how Levy was saying Hafu can't lose when she's up two pawns, reminds me of that video where Kasparov is going over memorable games and he's looking at his game with Anand and he says he's "two pawns up, let me emphasize, TWO pawns"

[racim.boussa]

8:59 She's skipping his turn that's a new level of disrespect OMG

[hipeople]

Hafu: am I throwing
pros: best move
me: **audience retention**

[markolvera]

It’s kinda funny that they agreed the opening and all the commentators were like ... What

[mr.smartypants]

I have only ever played chess twice. I don't know why this is here, but i'll watch and nod like i know what's going on.

[PeterSodhi]

@Hafu is exactly what PogChamps needs - a real freaking Champ.

[jordanr]

I have no idea what going on 🤣🤣🤣 I’m just listening to the praises for Hafu
