imagine just hitting 1100 and celebrating and then you come across this guy who goes 'oh no my queen' on the second move and makes every move in like 0.5 seconds
An experienced general with smaller, quicker forces prevailing...and enjoying his music while he does it. The queen sacrifice runs are so fun! Glad to see more of that content.
I think there will be some players with high blitz/rapid ratings but are not able to play fast so fast (due to slower player/slow connection/hardware) - should bring some interesting games earlier on, I think. A very good, but slow player should be able to put up good resistance. Will be very interesting. I think the speed run will still go very far, maybe to 3000! Very cool stuff!
This is the equivalent of a pro boxer saying he will fight, a 10 year old kid, using only one hand. The kids still don’t stand a chance neither do these low rated players. Still fun to watch though 😂
Hikaru's speed is intimidating. Players see their clocks running down, so they start playing faster than they are used to, hence blunders. Those who play well lose on time 'cause they do all their thinking on their time because nobody gets a break to think on Hikaru's time.
Hikaru is always queenless so this is light work for him
Does he not have a gf?
@@TheMrBirrihe is the 1 minute champion come on.
Love you hikaru tho
@@violentjingo7899genuinely curious, don’t know anything about him just like his chess. He’s not gay is he?
He has a gf
@@TheMrBirri he isn't
9:02 he’s not taking the queen I mean he must like kings 💀💀💀
I love it when Hikaru says things like "I'm only missing my queen, so it shouldn't be that bad."
As someone who is 1100 this feels like a violation lol
What is your elo rapid?
@@MrDanielfff777Only 1000 atm but I should get to at least 1200 soon
@@superepicness1554 why is ur bullet elo hihger than ur rapid?
@@MrDanielfff777 Because I haven't played enough rapid games for my rapid elo to represent my true level.
Hikaru's editor, may you keep numbering the videos of this (and any future) series? I have issues keeping track of where I left off sometimes.
They used to do that with all the other speedruns, don't know why they changed
it says part 2 in the description
@@des3373it does, yet this is actually part 6 if I'm not mistaken.
apparently the youtube algorithm doesn't like adding 'part [number]'. i agree its annoying though
3:50 funniest part
Hearing Hikaru singing we didn’t start the fire was something I didn’t know I needed
5:10 Ryan started the fire!
I'm 1600 in bullet and Hikaru could probably win most of his games Botez Gambitting at that level too.
Even at 2500+ level too maybe till 3000 as per his target
He has videos on his channel where he beats 2000 rated players with botez gambit
1600 hundred = 160000 = 160k elo

@@anonymustarrasque3550 i'm pretty sure he's at 2200 now in bullet with only 4 losses so pretty cool
Very impressive that he can memorize all the the lyrics to "We Didn't Start the Fire"
😂😂😂
Hikaru's face at 5:27 had me dying
mine is 20:19 lol
20:13 "rook here and block, have to be a little bit careful..."
Opponent: How is this guy so good?
Hikaru: Joseph Stalin, Malenkov, Nasser and Prokofiev, Rockefeller, Campanella, Communist Bloc, Roy Cohn, Juan Peron, Toscanini, Dacron, Dien Bien Phu falls, "Rock Around the Clock"
0:50 being down a queen "this is pretty standard so far"
Hikaru’s brain modules for chess and lyrics are obviously separate and run in parallel.
Some of these checkmates are truly amazing
Looks like we're missing an intermediate clip here. In the last video he was at 70 wins
Wicked tune at the beginning! jammin’!
Hikaru singing the Beatles is just so heartwarming!❤
that intro is absolutely stellar
ive been on this app for a long time, one the chillest youtubers on the platform
That's great music the editor pumped in. Give that man a raise, shit is epic. Hikaru u should listen to his Playlist while destroying.
imagine just hitting 1100 and celebrating and then you come across this guy who goes 'oh no my queen' on the second move and makes every move in like 0.5 seconds
My favorite chess player...Hes so precise at commentary & chess!!
Then you don't know him well enough.
An experienced general with smaller, quicker forces prevailing...and enjoying his music while he does it.
The queen sacrifice runs are so fun! Glad to see more of that content.
7:27 I was wondering if was actually going to say it 😂
the pre-take with king at the end was a nice touch.
Hikaru getting married : " I, Hikaru Nakamura, takes, takes, takes, takes 😂
"Alright this is pretty standard so far" -Hikaru after the Botez Gambit
These intros have always been fire
Think of the confusion of someone giving away their queen on move 2 and then destroying you with near perfect accuracy.
"He's not taking the Queen,
I - I mean he must like kings"
- Hikaru
Mr. Editor this is part 6 not part 2!! Also, part 5 ended on win #70, this starts at win #83!
Intro music makes me feel like I'm in the upgrade lounge on gran turismo
Intro reminds me of staying up late as a kid watching Toonami
Hikaru has a Queen now 🎉💍
I think hikaroo forgot he was making a TH-cam video that can't play the music he's singing along to
Ironically hikaru is no longer queenless
Thanks I would watch these 24h❤
Hikaru said he wanted to try out for American Idol. May I suggest using the alias William Hung His Queen? Just a thought...
Hikaru singing some Billy Joel, we didn’t start the fire!
1:36 any one explain
Speed of Chess
I like when Hikaru said its Botezing Time, and He Botez'ed his opponents all around the board
If my king takes one more step mr hikaru it'll be the farthest from home it's ever been.
at about 8:00, what's the name of the song Hikaru is singing?
22:03 isnt that a fork on c2 ?
please do a blindfold speedrun
5:26 lol
Anyone know the song at 22:00?
I like how hikaru's opponents also doing botez gambit speedrun
intro is pure gold
Hikaru without a queen
This is pretty standard so far
8:00 song name ?
the intro is epic
best intro ever
Where is part 1?
10:32 great Avril Lavigne song
Hikaru:
1) arguably the best chess player in the world.
2) arguably the worst singer in the world.
Also, we love you Hikaru :)
Dang, after watching more of the video, I’m hearing all the parts of American Idol and desires to “try out”. Now I just feel like a big ass. 😢
The first one depends if its all time in my opinion he's not but if its currently then maybe which makes sense
Best bullet player yeah, the rest not so much 😅
bro one opponent tried doing scholars mate at 1100 💀

intro is insane
HIkaru, great content. A one and done run would be great- how many games can you go without a loss, how high can you go without a loss.
That is really impressive.
Part 3 Le's go
How to get the chessboard theme to look like his?
3:24 missed f4
Again, great intro
intro at 5:29

Not quite. Maybe Floyd Mayweather beating up a High School Varsity Boxer with his left arm only.
@@IntotheLloyd Lol a 1000 rated player isnt exactly a High School Varsity level chess player, you literally get there after a few months practice tops
This intro gave coffeezilla vibe
gotta love hikaru as a content creator and chess player lol
space monkey mafia 6:37 ...
DISRESPECT SPEEDRUN, HIKARU!!!!! NOT BOTEZ GAMBIT!
*reads the title*
okay. step no.1
1. become super gm
Could you do this in rapid?
would love to see alireza do the same thing
Another in the ofis by hikaru 😀👍
Hika-raoke today
What happened to part 6? Last one was part 5 and this part 7.
I think I can beat Hikaru if he played without his king
WHAT IS GOING ON IN THIS VIDEO??? These opponent blunders are insane!!
Hikaru's speed is intimidating. Players see their clocks running down, so they start playing faster than they are used to, hence blunders. Those who play well lose on time 'cause they do all their thinking on their time because nobody gets a break to think on Hikaru's time.
Which is why I think 2+1 format would be better. But to Hikaru that's like blitz. And he already did that. Was it 3 + 0 ...?
What is my boi even singing
Step 1: be Hikaru
olhando a tumb rapido parece uma imagem do imperio japones☠️
The lick! Anyone else hear it?
these are not 1000s like in rapid. They are probably around 1600
NO QUEENS?????
I want to play a bullet game against Hikaru like this to see how I would do!
Okay Magnus
@@iggy1644 Would you not like to play against him without his queen?
I feel like you'd have immediate regrets
@@HowThatHappen Nah, I could tell everyone I lost against Hikaru
Only downside of that would be you'd no longer be able to tell people you've never lost a game against Hikaru
Ooops looks like you hung one episode, (last ended at 69 (nice) wins, this one starts at 82.)
Awesome to see I'm not the only one that butchers good songs🤣🤣🤣
I am here after the mariage annoucement and demand to stop the botez gambit series 😂
I love Hikaru's taste in music
Which type of music is that
@@admiral9107 Old music
We didn't start the fire
What's the name of this opening
In before I GOT 100 FLAWLESS WINS DOING THE BOTEZ GAMBIT CHALLENGE (GONE MUSICAL)
Idk man. I play against 500 at bullet atm and they play better than some of these over 1k rated players
Hikaru best chess streamer
Hikaru is my new favorite singer
2 wins from glory
