30 Queens. Can Martin Win? 

When you have 30 queens, you could literally win 99.9% of the time with completely random moves. The fact that he lost effectively proves Martin has extensive knowledge of chess and intentionally picked losing moves to let you win, like he does with his kids.

"If you do not know what you are doing, neither does your enemy." - Martin Tzu

Chess manuals: "one queen is worth nine pawns" Martin: "one pawn is worth nine queens"

That pawn who promoted to a knight needs a movie made about his journey

They should add a feature to Martin's playstyle so that 1 in 100 games he plays like a GM just to confirm that he's just throwing the rest of the games for fun.

Considering Martin purposeful chose moves to lose (considering randomly moving would have been better), it means he actually understands chess really well and just chooses not to use good moves

16:37 - *Levy:* "He has soo many mates.." *Martin:* 😊

So just a thought, but since material advantage is quantifiable, Martin may be coded to be "dumber" the higher the gap in material advantage is in the bots favor. This would be a great way to code a beginner bot since it would never straight up blow you out, but it would become more competitive when the material advantage reaches closer to parity (i think this is evidences by how Martin seemed to play a little better once he lost a lot of queens)

Martin is a chess genius. Finds the worst move every time. He could consistently lose to a random move generator.

martin just has a big heart, he lets his kids win, that’s why he has kids

Martin is letting you win, meanwhile he's decrypting nuclear missile launch codes.

There is no one that can snatch defeat from the jaws of victory quite like Martin

Poor Martin, he just wanted to play with his children. He doesn't deserve this bullying.

"He only has 5 queens left" is a sentence I never thought I'd ever hear

as someone who usually loses to martin, this vid makes me cry

5:27 “ KNIGHT. Uhhhhh. Yes I broke Martin, he doesn’t know how to capture knights “. Got me rolling 😂😂😂😂😂

Chess played perfectly always ends in a Martin

Martin is made perfectly according to his description. He's made to play evenly against clueless children, so they don't lose every game and hate chess.

That one pawn in game 2 was an absolute legend, it took out 30% of Martin’s starting amount of queens when it got taken!

I can just imagine the game review and all the blunders, misses wins, and mistakes made by Martin 😊

the reason that Martin doesn't capture knights is because he simply doesn't take L's

As a Martin fan, Martin knows how to speak for himself

I'll never forget when Martin checkmated me In 4 moves.. *Twice*

5:30 this knight has a main character luck💀

Martin doesn't want to sacrifice a Queen for a piece of lower value, even when he has 30 of them

Martin is a godsend. He’s not trying to play competitively, he’s just trying to be a good dad by spending quality time with his kids. At the end of the day, Martin is who we should all strive to be.

Pretty sure Martin can see to a move depth of 1 and then chooses the worst move unless he gets captured, checkmated or can checkmate himself

14:36 martin be smartin

Imagine how hard it is for Martin to not accidentally mate you. Like he does everthing in his power for you to win

Martin is really a Good Bot, finding the worst move is just as hard as finding the best one

I'm not a scumbag, well that's debatable 💀💀💀

I like to think that when you play against Martin, you assume the role as one of his children, and he's throwing to make you feel good no matter what :)

This is literally the representation of “a herd of sheep led by a lion is stronger than a herd of lions led by a sheep”

*martin knows that no one can read his mind if he doesn't have one*

I watched this entire 30 minute video and I didn’t even realize it was 30 minutes. This is new for me.

I like your reactions when Martin is making good moves😂

Levy: "Even as a beginner, you'll stumble into good moves by accident." Martin: "haha 30 queens go BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR"

Martin taught magnus carlsen chess when he was a child and after teaching him everything he knew, suffered a terrible accident that resulted in losing his memories. So magnus's grandmaster-level chess moves are truly the teachings of the great martin.

Martin is an absolute genius on the chessboard, his strategic brilliance is truly awe-inspiring. Martin's mastery of chess is truly remarkable; his moves are like poetry in motion. Martin's strategic prowess in chess is unmatched, and his dedication to the game is admirable. Martin's chess skills are out of this world; he's a true grandmaster in every sense. Watching Martin play chess is like witnessing a work of art; he makes every move with precision and finesse. Martin's strategic thinking and tactical awareness in chess are second to none. Martin's dedication to perfecting his chess game is truly impressive; he's a role model for aspiring players. Martin's passion for chess shines through in his exceptional gameplay; he's a true inspiration for chess enthusiasts. Martin's chess skills are nothing short of extraordinary, and his dedication to the game is unwavering. Martin's ability to read the chessboard and make brilliant moves is a testament to his expertise as a grandmaster.

"I'm gonna give him few more queens, like who can beat anybody with 15 queens".. was too personal🤣

The most amazing thing about Martin is his overall willingness to play. Doesn't matter when or what time of day, when you need him, he is there.

I actually really like Martin. He makes me feel like I'm good at chess

I’m so bad I can’t even beat Martin😭😭

Just want to say, this was way more entertaining than I expected. Great job, man.

Levy when -2 at lose at chess: the game is lost Levy today: _I have -112! That's winning!_

As someone who can’t beat Martin I am now in tears

You missed a change to fork his queen and his queen.

Now that is what you call “the queens gambit”

"I decide to take the place of Stockfish, because I am better than Stockfish" - Levy Rozman(Roastman)

That pawn at 11:51 must be the most OP pawn in chess history. Took down 9 queens!

"You can predict your opponents move . But you cannot predict stupid's move ."

that opening clip "hittin me with that checkmate action" had me rolling xD

I'm not good at chess and one time I was trying to beat Martin when he told me "my 5 year old son just beat me, ouch!" I have not emotionally recovered from this moment since

Martin is a stronger computer programmed to randomly pick bad moves. When he only has queens he has like a bagillion legal moves and he isn’t allowed to play the good ones

12:20 That knight promotion got me😂

You should be grateful towards martin for having mercy on you, using a mere fraction of his immense talent.

Martin plays this way so that his children can always win. Father of the year for me. ❤

This was like Levy was a pokémon nuzlocker learning the trainer AI

This reminds me of the Elden Ring video by Let Me Solo Her where every enemy was Malenia.

18:39 seeing that bar instantly skyrocket to white while gotham’s face turns into immense surprise is so funny

my theory is that martin doesn't realize he has 30 queens, and is scared to risk losing his most valuable piece (or 1 of 30 of them). so any move you make that threatens a single queen makes him panic for absolutely no reason

Martins king having the best time

12:48 "Did I just break Martin?" LOL!

I think its got very specific strategies attached to pieces that causes it to always consider a queen high value. So instead of going "So much power in these queens" its thinking "Oh no these queens are in so much danger!".

Martin: My goals are beyond your understanding

Martin is a true champ. Not punishing his small children for all of their insane moves

17:32 had me dying lol

Levi: "I'm gonna take the queen" Blind viewers: "which one?"

i never played chess but this is the funniest thing ever i died when he did the knights disrespect

1:14 "well that's debatable"💀💀💀💀 nahh bro did himself dirty

9:46 that was kind of intense, knowing that if he wanted to at any moment, he had so much pressure. 13:10 the pure laughter from the knight just bulldozing the backyard. Oh it was so glorious.

The fact that I lost to Martin at the age of 17 is truly a blessing

That pawn showed how hard you have to work for a promotion at a job and how unfair life is, even though he took 9 queens and got a small promotion, nobody cared when he died and didn’t appreciate him 😢

bro this is one of my favorite videos by Gotham of alltime.

18:40 I like how the bar is in sync with his face xddd😂

Martian’s weakness: everything… But when he has only queens: Knight’s L-pattern provides Martian with yet another L to his list of wins and loses.

I think I figured out why he is playing so defensive, I think that Martin is programmed to be protective of the Queen piece (since you know….there’s only supposed to be one) so when you give him 30 of them he still just thinks he needs to protect them and save them as if there were only one. Idk if any of that is true, I’m just guessing.

I think knights were designed to counter queens because a knight with check on a queen is perfectly within the queen’s blind spot

20% of the video: Levi taking queens 80%: Levi trash talking Martin

I can just imagine all the “there goes my best piece”

'The hardest battle you'll ever fight is with yourself' - Martin

I never thought I'd hear someone say, "I mean, he's only got five queens left.

Martin is only using a fraction of his power. Just wait until he ascends into mega martin.

The way the bar turns 100% white at 18:40 is just beautiful

that king must have had a hell of a time before the battle started

1:43 black king be rizzing up them queens💀👌

I LOVE this video! Playing against a bunch of queens - and Martin, the world’s biggest blunderer! - it’s like Apone in Aliens! “Alright you sweethearts, what you waiting for??!”

Suggestion: make two Martin Bots play against each other and see what happens. Will one win or will they just make random moves till infinity?

I was very confused with the title, I thought Martin was this ALPHA AI that could predict every move chess move imaginable. But he’s just a family man lololol

You should be in Arkham for chess like that, that was insane.

Nice to see you doing chess vibes channel type stuff nelson lopez does these kinds of martin bot videos 😊👍 and that second game with the monster knight just devouring queens dum dum martin allowing it 😮😮😮

He's so smart he even knows the worst moves and purposely loses... Truly the kindest man to ever played chess😔✊

Martin is actually a gm, but purposefully let's his kids win, so they fall in love w chess

My favourite chess channel by far . Please never stop making videos ❤

If I ever get check mated by five knights I'm never playing again

Levy's "awww" every time Martin sees that he can take a piece with any one out of 7 queens is pure comedy gold.

Martin: Imma be big brain Also martin: help a single pawn captured 9 of my queens ;-;

Room Temperature IQ. I'll be stealing this phrase for the foreseeable future my friend

Respect that he promoted the pawns to horses and sacrificed DA ROOOOOOK!

there's something hilariously wholesome about a man from Bulgaria who's willing to let you beat him even when he has 30 queens. Like, he just calmly smiles back at you. I'm imagining him doing the total "oh shucks, ya beat me again champ, you're such a brilliant chess player." speech after each loss.
