How to be 3200 at Puzzles in Chess 

The day Levy becomes a GM, I will learn basic checkmate patterns.

The whole community gonna be lit the day he becomes a GM

Gotham breaks his record Guinness: nobody has ever applied for this record before

Mom: Go play with the neighbor's kid The neighbor's kid: 22:18

When chat spits out literally every legal move. Someone is going to be right before you

Normal people when they are angry: *scream* Levy: Russian accent (22:05)

Levy having to explain twitch chat to YT like it's his kid he's embarrassed about pls don't mind them

15:23 no guys it’s not Rc1, it’s never gonna be a move like that, you need to train your instincts 18:25 ...

"There must be a weird rook move" *Fails the puzzle because he didn't calculate the rook move* Well, he was right

at 23:10-23:23 levy started literally rapping the moves along to the beat

22:20 is my new ringtone thanks levy

Can’t wait for the third „I did it again“ video

The first puzzle was so hard he still gained a point for getting it wrong hahaha

9:38 "take a deep breath, and decompose." 💀

13:30 Levi discovers something incredible.

"Next step is 3300" ... Gets tilted and goes back to 3100

he's learning about the stockfish ceiling

Levy I'm from the future. I am here to tell you that you NEED to keep doing what your doing because it's great.

22:19 "brrrrr brrrrrr brrrrr c*m"

Nobody: GM Levy: Lemme just take a deep breath... Decompose 💀

"And then what? Some gangstar shit like Ke7?!" Cit.

25:49 - "What is this? Do you think I'm an idiot? Do you think I'm not gonna get this right?" - Levy immediately shows up nodding and giving thumbs up killed me

"just very confidently giving away your Queen?" killed me

The dream of GM title is slowly getting closer, let's go Levy!

Teacher: What are you laughing at? Me: *Nothing* Also my brain: *Levy Ackerman*

Levy your content has been amazing and I really appreciate all your uploads man. Keep going strong and know we all are here for it!

I know people keep saying "Levy needs to go for GM" "Levy will never be GM" "You can do this Levy! You can be a GM" But for some reason every time I think of Levy and I think the word IM it just fits

Next time he "does it again" I'm expecting a Britney Spears thumbnail

Who wants Levy to start competing seriously and become a GM ?

Levy I love what you do and your dedication! Hope you continue that way for a long time! Thanks for the amazing content

Bro I watch your RU-vid and twitch content and watching the speed you understood that second puzzle was beyond anything I’ve seen... nice

I'm liking the new editing style

At this point my day just consists of waiting for levy to upload new shit

13:49 gotham doing the pogchamp face, could be a good thumbnail or meme someday lol

Hey Gotham I love your videos and the personality you bring to them! Is there any way you can do a video on how to decide what to do during the midgame? Like figuring out what the best plan or move is?

When Levy gets mad his accent just comes out, amazing.

Could you make a video about your training, how you study etc.

Love your videos ... Helped me so much increasing my rating .. the intro I don’t know if it was my connection or your editing wasn’t a smooth as I think you would like

like when i see these puzzles i dont even have the closest idea what to do BUT when i see the answers i still feel like they are great designed. they feel smart and beautiful. and everytime he gets it i am like "thats such a sweet play"

One day I will get there. It may take a while though. Because I can only do three puzzles per day

When Gotham goes insane from a puzzle.

I love puzzles it's so chill and a good way to learn complex mechanics.

Bro you have dying laughing! I enjoyed this video so much! “Then what is it some gangster shit like King to E7” 🤣🤣🤣

Stop spoiling us, I feel so lucky to get double uploads

The Day Levy becomes a GM, I will host a 3000 dollar Chess Tournament

This video single-handedly taught me how to calculate. After watching this I've so far gained over 100 points in Puzzles with very little sign of slowing down. I'm excited about it and I just needed to share. xD

800k!! Congrats levy 🥳🥳

Last time I was this early Magnus wasn't the world champion

Levy rozman ❎ Levy Ackerman ✔️

Congratulations levy, love you 3,000 keep it up man

It’s literally nuts that the song that was stuck in my head because of Levy is the song that twitch is listening to in the beginning of the video, and I was on twitch during this, and this could have been when the song got stuck into my head.

He's gonna unretire and do a tournament at this rate

13:38 dammm levy installed that stockfish in the ceiling encouraged by hikaru

Congrats Levy! Love your content and please keep up the good work!!

4:27 "Once you eliminate the impossible, whatever remains, no matter how improbable, must be the truth."

13:34 gotham just discovered the ceiling technique

Video recommendation: Anish Giri's Greatest Draw

Great video and it helped me go up 100. Can you talk through some 1200 to 1800 puzzles in a future vid because some of the opponent moves need explaining so I have a chance to predict them? I thought chess was logical but some just seem random to a noob like me.

26:46 now that's a real New Yorker right there.

Day 39 of translating the title in Italian: " L'ho fatto di nuovo!".

Levy breaking all these records when he could be breaking my back 😩

2:33 when Levi being possessed by Hikaru with his arrow spam

Congrats man, I hope you go onto kill it at the Vegas Open

when you're so early gotham hasn't pinned a comment yet

I'm not first and I'm not last, but when Gotham uploads I click fast

You have to do more of thise. in my darkest hours you make me laugh . Thank you.

21:26 it was Gangstershit levy Edit-It was actually 21:25

Last time I was this early, GM Levy was still being hunted down by brown ppl with glasses

10:52 i hear secret crates - springtime stroll man of culture

He left the music in! I’m not able to always watch on twitch but I love the music

1:32 Not hard to hit 3200 when you fail and gain rating.

I am a chess puzzle looser ,but i will come one day to edit this comment

Hahaha your reaction to the first puzzle's solution is my reaction to some 2900 puzzles. You really have to do a double think of your life choices XD

he finally learned the stockfish ceiling trick

I watched on stream, was really fun and I'm glad it's on RU-vid now so I can watch it again :D

The most satisfying part is that the rating is perfectly 3200, on the dot, no extra, super satisfying

That was a very entertaining video. Found myself laughing out loud. Glad to know even the great players get frustrated with puzzles.

You don't know how much this video actually helped me. I'm a 1100ish on rapid who just got a membership and is doing as much puzzles. I'm 1200ish there tho I do everything fast, there is a 3-4 move pattern to checkmate, i go and take the free knight. My vision accidentally caught the time you take on your puzzles, 8-10+ minutes! I was shocked. Thought it was just because your puzzles are harder but I don't really think it's that. Before watching this video the most time I took on a single puzzle was about 40 seconds because I wanted to have a perfect time and be "the best". Now I'm calculating every few moves after what I'm about to play, and got 50 instant points, like literally 5/6 puzzles. So thank you so much!

"That's how you calculate" You can see how proud he is on his face lol

Congrats dude! Keep up the grind, you are making incredible progress and content!

that was amazing !!! Congratulations . And how you found those clues behind the puzzles. Intriguing thanks . Sherlock Gotham .

Chat keeps getting it right because they just say the first thing that comes to mind, and eventually one of them gets it right

When I pause and get at least one move right that Levi couldn't see, I feel like a GM

Sitting there watching a Levy video and I get this notification! I love it!

I’d like to see a video of trying out some puzzles I different sites.. lichess, chesstempo and see what the change of difficulty is.

Good to see that I am not the only one that suffers through puzzles. Not at your level but the pain is the same. :)

I love the boat sounds when he missed the puzzle at 22:30

2:20 Goddamn it! I would've taken months to figure that one out. it took him like a millisecond

Hello Levy could you do a video on explaining when the end games becomes the middle game and middle game becomes the end?

the absolute madlad. Congrats levy

Levy can you make a chess openings video on how to play the Albin Countergambit/other openings against the queen's gambit? I like playing the queen's gambit but I keep getting crushed by it :D

Such an entertaining content creator ! Love you and keep it up

Congrats on 800k Sir Levy

“I DID IT AGAIN” - Anytime GothamChess uploads a RU-vid video (aka every day)

Love seeing chat go 'Qg2 hangs a queen chat' absolute self-awareness

18:40 hollerrrrrrrrring lol

Congrats Levy! Please do that New York accent more often please I love it

Congrats for 800 k levi you are speed running 1m 8 months ago you were just 100 k in 2020 u shined congratulations hope you reach 1 million soon best of luck

13:35 I see Levy also got the Stockfish ceiling

13:30 Levy discovers a very cool looking spider on his ceiling
