Stop it bebe!!!!! Alien Gambit so OP! 👽👽
Thank you so so much for this video, Eric ❤
stop it bebe dont boo spam brilliant emote
@@OvercookedOctopusFeet then why is it an official opening now? Alien Gambit forever bebe
@@vincewientjens5599 is that a serious question? Learn your chess history.
@@OvercookedOctopusFeet no seriously
So happy to see everyone giving your gambit the recognition it deserves!
"Let the pieces marinate" - the new let 'em cook!
Not a new saying, that phrase was common place during among us era
I mean, it doesn't even mean the same thing
@@AvocadoTheBugCat It was also common place during the 1990s lol
@@AvocadoTheBugCat⛽️
Let him marinate 🗣️🗣️🔊🔥
I think it's time for an alien Gambit themed tournament
Not to criticise, but you need to watch the witty alien video on the alien gambit. Play d4 and don’t give the knight check unless the bishop comes out, otherwise castle rook e1 etc. the gambit becomes even more powerful when u play it like witty
Yeah it's not quite the alien gambit but the lines resulting are quite similar so ...
eric is so funny „let the pieces marinate”
The alien ist not with the two knights variation, but this looks very or even more deadly too!
That was brutal. Very well played.
I think the pawn has to be on d4 for it to be the AG. This is Karo Kane Variation iirc
Havent seen this version of the Alien gambit before. Nice win
What a game. Loved it!
More alien gambit Ericccc
Don't Booo Spam the Brilliantt Emoteeee
The aliens shared their chess knowledge to the world! How shocking!
Sharp game! Also, I think I saw mate in 2 w/ Qb7, Ra3?
I thought so as well!
Woww, Brilliant move at Bd3‼️
This is Caro Kane though, similar ideas but without the d4 pawn
Oh no my Knight!
Alien Gambit baby!
I just can't play with so much calmness .. my anxiety while playing chess🔝
That was nice
Was that not a fork around 1:15? I’m new so I could definitely be missing something
Isnt that the Caro Kane? It even says it in the notation
Nice one
Oh No my alien gambit
I like the Fantasy variation, you can get oh no my queen there
I'm sure I'm missing something, but why not fork the king/rook with Nf7 on move 10, around 1:05 in the video?
Yeah I thoughr the same thing. Still can't figure it out.
Same
Black can qg2 to attack rook and bishop after white knight takes rook.
@@birthdayzrock1426 Yeah but the bishop would be covered by the knight on h8, so just move the rook to f1?
@@nobodyharder6575 i'm saying that will happen after white takes black rook with knight.
Always look for mate in 3 if you have mate in 2 :P
“BTW - this is Caro-Kane variation Alien
Gambit is 2.d4
Dont booo!!! Spam the brilliant emote!!!
I used to play a opening like this 8 or 9 years ago in a online app called dr.chess. Moving only the knight all the way to the king and disable the castling right by sacrificing it, then unleash full attack on king. But now i forgot the follow up moves, the main aim is to disable the castling rights. This method won't work all the time, but i have beaten a national master with that method when i was around 1200 to 1300 rating..
Black could exchange the rooks at end and go for draw. I almost
Always lose or draw with this gambit.
Jiren can play chess
Wish I could find my old lichess account. I swear I went up against that knight sacrifice multiple times back in 09-10. I even know it for sure because the first time I saw it I tried to kick the knight away and got wrecked. So idk how this is new to people. Still a cool opening trick. But it’s not new to 2024 no way
Actually it’s the Caro Kane variation 🤓☝️
Why not go for the fork on move 10?
A sound thrashing.
Why he didn't fork in starting?
after his king d8 did you not have knight f7 forking king and rook - knight protected by bishop so queen cant take?
Qg2 is too troublesome to let it ramp behind your lines I guess
There is no need to allow Qxg2
There is Nf7+ and then just castle...
Eric allowed Qxg2 for some reason, I think he missed the idea of checking and then castling
5:18 "when u have mate in 1 look for better"
this is caro kane not alien apparently
The alien gambit is a Caro Kann variation
@@ijemand5672 witty alien made a video about the difference between the two, eric played caro kane on this one
@@ijemand5672 The Caro Kane is a variation of the Caro Kann named after Jeremy Kane
Basically the same lol
@@Nico-xc3rgwrong
Yesterday I saw this video, today I thought I'd give it a try, won a game in 9 moves with all my opponent's pieces (except pawns) on their original squares 😂 brutal!
Imagine Magnus plays "ALIEN GAMBIT 👽👽"
Why you didn't fork KF7?
At 1:05 you have Nf7+ Kc7, Nxh8
what's wrong with 10. Nf7 ?
idk dude I'm rated 400
5:45
Not strictly wrong - it wins material, but loses momentum. Eric wants to keep creating bigger threats instead
pawn is hanging, knight and bishop would be stuck in the corner
@@gwonky931ty ❤
Can someone explain why black queen did not take the bishop on f4 at @2:27 ?
That hangs mate in 1, Qxd7#
1:13 Af7
Why not go for the fork with Nf7 on move 10? Didn't want to allow any white counterplay with their knight and queen?
Pls somebody answer 1:11
caro kane
So, you used alien technology to win the game.
oh yes my love indeed Eric
Meanwhile after Ne5 and Kg8 black is winning lol
thanks for the shoutout
good ❤
U missed d4 when d5
Why not 10. Nf7+? You 'll win the rook at the only cost of your castling rights and two pawns.
This is the caro kane not alien gambit
7...Ke8 ?....7...Kg8 !
Oh no I play Caro...don't do this to me :c
Don't boo just spam Alien Gambit emote my dear friends 🔥
Eric, think about letting your bear grow my brother! You are an IM, the bear will suit you very well!
You mean "beard"?
@@davidanderson_surrey_bc lmao yeaah! BEARD ERIC! Thanks bro! I will leave it wrong so your comment keep making sense!
After he plays Kd8 why not fork the king and rook on f7??
g2 was weak
because queen g2 would fork his rook and bishop, and opponent would eventually definitely win the knight. So he's actually be down 2 extra points of material after it's all said and done.
Ahh I see, could’ve still played it, then black plays Kc7, white castles, but then you don’t win any material
He should have played the knight fork, d4 was a blunder. That was the only move to maintain equality (I just had a look with stockfish)
mate in 2, not 3: after Qb7+, Ka5...Ra3#
He for some reason thought he could find a way to peacefully castle, manual castling was mandatory, he shouldn't have played that nd7 mess, I can't understand why didn't he play kc7 and then bring the other pieces into the game
An all "A" video by Eric would feature the Alapin, the Alekhine, and the Alien.
hi from the future... or the past, or
You missed mate in 1
👽👽👽
It's too strong
10. Nf7 was bad ?
its easily refuted. first time I saw it I thought what kind of rubbish sacrifice is this?
first time I encountered it, my opponent resigns pretty early once they realize that there no actual attack
This dubious gambit needs to be busted.
Cant believe it works.
I love gambits but this one just feels wrong.
Gambit had already been refuted... But the move that stops it is really hard to find, and most Caro players go for their ordinary, logical moves often result in problems. Sure, gambit is dubious according to engine but humans are not engines, therefore it works pretty well in bullet/blitz games with not enough time to calculate correctly 😅
In alien Gambit you play d4 this is the caro Kane ig
a theoretical gambit. No one will ever play the lines to make it work.
Why doesn't the knight fork the king and rook on move 10?
Not worth misplacing a great pony going after that awful rook that hasn’t moved. Down a piece, Gotta keep the pedal to da metal
He is going for the kill not for material. If you want to become better at attacking, you need to realize a strong knight is better than a rook that hasn’t even moved.
@@macdonaldnnadi Just checked it w. the engine. Eric is lucky that black didn't take the g2 pawn on move 10, or it would have been black going for the kill. Knight fork and then castle is the only real path forward.
@@pepperwestwood Checking w. Stockfish, it appears that the knight fork is the only real way to continue the attack. Eric got lucky that black's queen didn't take the g2 pawn and put him on immediate, permanent defense. The fork doesn't actually win the rook because white has to castle to prevent the queen's incursion. But the end black is not far off.
@@p0gue23i was looking for this comment, i also checked Right After i saw it
That is the Caro Kane Variation not the alien gambit
You might saying urrr duhh wtf is this move…
Why don't you fork ? 1:15
No-one over 1400 should fall for this.
Dude theres some gms that have falling for this
Only for bullet/blitz, more time and white is lost...
Don't booooooo spam brilliant!!!!
Do a quick recap of Witty and Gotham's video in this gambit, and you will be unstopable.
Hikaru knows more about this Gambit than both of those you just mentioned. Hikaru played this opening in the nineties against Robby Adamson. Adamson was playing this gambit a long long time before witty gave it the meme name. Probably before Witty was born actually.
Damn that's wild if it's true. But, Gotham and Witty made instructive video about it. Is there a video of Hikaru playing it from back then. ?@@OvercookedOctopusFeet
@@shuvro40 If you go to GMHikaru's channel, his video is called "Learn to play the Alien Gambit with Hikaru!!". At the 13 minute point he tells a story about how the Alien gambit is not new at all, he played it when he was a kid against Robby Adamson (Adamson made the opening well known back then, and even then it was well known a long time before him).. so yeah, Witty gave it a silly name but it is not new. I recommend Hikaru's video on it. (it is a 2 or 3 minute talk from hikaru between playing his moves so bear with him as he explains to the end)
@@shuvro40 someone is deleting my replies here, interesting
This is the Caro-Kane, not the Alien Gambit
Are you stupid?
@@danzeboye4 c6 Nf3 d5 Nc3 dxe4 Nxe4 Nf6 Neg5 h6 Nxf7 is called Caro-Kane. Alien Gambit is e4 c6 d4 d5 Nc3 dxe4 Nxe4 Nf6 Ng5 h6 Nxf7
@@danzeboy Bro, there is D4 in alien gambit. The Caro Kane is a 2 knights attack variation.
@@Blackmystix i didn't realize that had a different name since you can so easily transpose into alien gambit with d4 at the end of the caro-kane
I mean, the gambit is from an extraterrestrial being.
This gambit was being played 30+ years ago by Robby Adamson. How easily chess history is forgotten.
@@OvercookedOctopusFeet you're right but I suppose it's witty who popularized it in this age of chess. Chess players back then didn't have much of a following or an audience
@@strek45 Yes, but is a little disappointing that so many young players don't understand the difference between "popularising" and "inventing/creating". The "alien gambit" is a fun meme, and Witty should be credited for that, but i wonder how many of Witty's audience actually believe that he created this opening gambit.. it's frightening and funny at the same time to think about🤣
@@OvercookedOctopusFeet no one's gonna know or accept the fact that their favourite creator didn't invent it unfortunately
I don’t know who created the gambit. I was just making a joke about how the name was “Alien Gambit”, and that an “Alien” made the gambit.

Day 3 asking Eric to say "bon appetit" on a video (I always watch your videos when I'm eating)
It's not the Alien Gambit 🙄🙄 Just look at the explorer. You guys gotta stop taking Jeremy Kane's thunder, like credit him.
It's the Alien Gambit bebe
