Hi
Bro sponsors anime games 😭💀
Hi Levy
Pin of shame
Get the bag ig but I'm not downloading that lmao
"If one of the kings has a gigantic hole in his house, but he uses it to point a rocket at *your* house, whose king is actually safer?"
- Levy, The Art of Chess, 2023
That's actually dope ngl
That segment reminded me of a George Carlin bit : "It's the quiet one you gotta watch"
Imagine you're in a bar and there is a guy in the corner, reading a book, not bothering anyone and there's a guy by the door jumping up and down screaming with a machete yelling "I'm gonna kill the next motherf**** who comes in here!"
Who are you gonna watch?
Perfect
@@dynad00d15 the guy with the machete lmao bruh
Omg!
It's crazy how effortlessly Ian was able to beat Nepo in this match
He outplayed himself
Yeah, Nepo beats himself
bro i was so worried u spoiled it but then I reread it.
@@bluu4208 but I did kinda spoil it didn't I? Sorry about that. Today's match was wild tho. It was like watching Guess the Elo Super GM edition
Spoilers ._. Couldn’t even make it full screen before it showed up
We should all be grateful to Magnus for giving us the opportunity to see this absolute chaos
underrated comment. the guy is living his life playing poker and watching the chaos unfold like us :D
@@AndreasInLondon underrated, or stolen and reiterated ad nauseam? Same difference to your generation huh
@@drownedcreation weirdo
@@drownedcreation Calm down
@@gadfly6301 is that your way of saying you would prefer I sheep along with the rest of you in your painfully unfunny echo chamber? No thanks pal.
I felt so sry for Ian when he blundered and then realized it...started talking to himself, anger, desperation, everything coming together....man that was so tough...poor guy. Hope he recovers and we get two super exciting games....
man went through all five stages of grief before making a move
@@RuyLopezTheSicilian Fr poor guy, bottled it at the end
it's hard to recover after such a blunder
Repent to Jesus Christ ““Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock.”
Matthew 7:24 NIV

@@repentandbelieveinJesusChrist3ok, I'm Christian and I understand why you do this, but like, why is this on a Gotham Chess Video. And don't use bots, they're annoying af.
Both Nepo and Ding know that the biggest prize is not being the world champion, but making it into the next Guess The Elo 😂
🤣🤣🤣. True
@@idontknow36374nobody cares😂
@IDK try fools mate it's faster ez ez 💯 💯
😂😂😂😂
@@idontknow36374 he will go for the traxler and destroy u
Levy if I moved my bishop twice in the opening: BOZO
Levy if Ian does it: "this is actually really smart"
@IDK i know youre being sarcastic but thats so cringe
@IDK you are right even I can beat him
@@idontknow36374 fr bro
@IDK ikr anyone can just fry his liver
😂
Started this match rooting for Nepo. But I love Ding’s willingness to utilize openings that aren’t “engine theory” to take his opponent out of their comfort zone. And honestly it’s just such a great underdog story. I’m a Ding fan now!
Ding! DING! Go Ding! Go!
I'm still rooting for Nepo, but seeing Ding bounce back is so insane. I'm happy just to watch crazy chess, to be honest.
@@Johnnyvtg Do you think either player will ever be right again? I mean the chances each has taken, the mental toll (Ian's second shot while Ding's play has been less than accurate), added to the uncertainty of ever returning to the Championship Board, has got to damage each of the players. I mean that once the confidence goes, (Fabi), you can still be a contender, but more likely a pretender. And then there is Magnus, so whichever player wins, there will always be an underlying question.
Same. I didn't even know who Ding was before this Championship, but now I'm a big fan and really hope that he can pull off the win.
The more I learn about his story, the more I like him.
He seems like such a likeable, honest, and humble guy.
@@whiskeybacon4581 I can hardly fathom the pressure he must be under. Disregard the political pressure of a government which not only controls your every move, has eyes on world dominice on every front.
I love how Fabiano described it. bishop d7 is like Nepo reached for the bishop and was trying to move it to g4, but felt a sudden urge to sneeze, causing him to drop it on d7
You know the WCC is exciting when Levy narrates the game like one of his 400 elo videos
He had me thinking Ding was toast, as we are not commentating on two 400elos. But you are right, the same type of commentary works here in the WCC. I really think Magnus is still better than these two, but this is the most exciting tourney I have seen in a good while. They are evenly matched, indeed.
@@minoc2 Yeah I feel like Magnus WCC matches tend to have a theme or quality of seeing how long a "bulletproof" approach works whereas this feels like a total slugfest. Very entertaining games and very interesting theoretical explorations.
@@minoc2 Magnus, Caruana, Karyakin a few others would beat both of these two with a big lead, but the fact its exacctly *these* two makes the match much more exciting because we don't actually know who will win.
@@its_dey_mate It is an awesome match, indeed.
@@taboopancake28 Yeah, a slug-fest with no pulled punches. That game today, just wow.
If Ding intentionally makes mistakes to confuse Ian out of his prep that would be 900 iq
"Make mistakes, confuse the enemy." -Doctor Who, Destiny of the Daleks.
Emanuel Lasker was known for doing that, Magnus does it also. Inaccuracies though not mistakes lol
It's the Rapport coaching
@@TechnoMageB5 EXTERMINATE! EXTERMINATE!
Ding's clearly been watching GTE and learning some tactics
“The king sees the horse though so it’s adorable” had me crying 9:45
I never thought I’d see the day where a chess video would be on top 5 for trending on gaming. Great content.
When Ding blunders, the position can still be saved, but when Nepo blunders, it becomes completely hopeless in matter of ONE MOVE. Truly shocking.
If Ian had taken advantage of Ding's blunder he wouldve won. That's what the difference was this game.
This is a certified King's Pawn versus Queen's Pawn dynamic 💀 edit: I hadn't watched the game yet when I made this comment and realize now it makes almost zero sense given the game itself lmao.
Ian is obviously a very strong player, but he has some of the most baffling blunders in the world championships. He'd be crushing Ding if it weren't for just bizarre mistakes
@@12jswilson maybe ge got paid for losing this match :D
Yeah Ian has been insanely impressive but this f5 move blows my mind. I haven't seen the post game interview but I have to wonder if he just somehow missed Rxe6 or if he somehow misevaluated it because it seems like a two/three move threat that I'd have imagined was very much on his radar.
Absolutely magnificent recap. The best of the series Levy. Such passion, twists and turns. Title and thumbnail on point. 11/10
damn a heart
Heart of Shame!
Agreed 100%
I would agree that this is his best for THIS WCC, but game 6 of Magnus vs Nepo is still my favourite video of his
I envy you😢
14:09 some of Levy’s most sophisticated chess analysis.
Levy, your analogies to different sports moments, in this case, MMA, is something I greatly appreciate; especially the Weidman spinning wheel kick that led to his demise, that was perfect.
Damn, these last Guess the Elo episodes are damn good Levy. Mad respect to you and also to video donators.
I felt like I was watching Low Elo Legends.
@@genericyoutubeaccount579 This is clearly a low 800 vs a high 700
This was heartbreaking for Ian especially after blundering away a winning advantage of -2 but at the same time huge props to Ding for finding such a innovative counterplay.
it was -2 then it was +2 then it was drawn then it was +6 lol
Same thing happened to Ding a few matches ago. As a neutral, this is exciting. But i imagine if you have a preference, either Ding or Ian, heart attacks all over
counterplay come from nepo. nepo beat Ian
Ding spent ~1 minute on each of those blunders, and when he eventually played the best move it was still only 1:10 on the move. I’m not really sure if he found it or if he lucked onto it ngl
@@Ramin2340 Yes, but Ding should never have had the +2 eval unless Nepo blunders a winning position. If he didn't rush to make his moves like usual for no reason at all, there's no way Ding even had a sniff in this. Ian was the one with the massive initiative and was playing brilliantly up until the blunder. Ian threw this game and probably the title. Complete choke.
What a match this has been so far! No matter who wins, I am grateful to Ding and Nepo for giving us so much excitement. I honestly don't know whom to root for anymore, they both deserve to be world champion.
This is why Levy is so big. That recap had me on an emotional Rollercoaster in which I never knew what was actually going to happen. Great stuff!
Ding has evolved from Ding Chilling to Ding Winning 🗿
Na man 😂😂😂😂
DING CHILLING LMAOOOOO IM ROLLING
@@mitchellcruickshank3815 I slightly chucked the first 20 times I read it
Bing Chilling
AYE SPOILER ALERT BRO!!
I know I shouldn't read the comments before reading, so don't chastise me 😂
Levy, your ability to never give away the ending but to live in the excitement and momentum of the current setup is truly amazing. What a ride.
This comment should be TOP
I would prefer if he didn't say whether someone won or not, but still fascinating
Never give away the ending? Not sure if sarcasm since the title gave it away before I even started the video.
@@exscape bruh no it doesn't lol he titles it as them winning no matter which side wins. You can guess which one it's referring to based on intuition but there is literally no actual indication one way or the other
Exactly my thoughts. Unreal. What a good job by Levi
And in an unexpected turn of events, Ian sacrifices..... THE WIN!!!
Bot ❌
Hey Levy, as a long time MMA fan and a recent Chess fan, i really appreciate how you explain these chess matches. And especially this World Championship match, this is a fight!!
Greetings from The Netherlands!
The plot of this game was better than most movies.
Depends on what you mean by one of the best. Quality wise, it was honestly way, way below the level super gm's should be playing at/normally play at.
@@eaglesto5398 He clearly didn't mean the quality
@IDK nah I'd just do the scholarship mate against you him and magnus blindfolded
@@Cristiano_RonaIdo_dos_santos nah Gotham would just fall for the fool’s mate
@IDK Yeah because it is probability that you are a bot... or willing to cheat... otherwise - no chance
What was your favourite moment? Mine was when Ian said, "It's Nepopotamus time", and sank into the swamp for a chill.
I preferred the part where Ding said "It's Dingin' time" and Dinged all over Nepo's king. It truly was a move in one of the chess games of our time
my favorite part was seeing Ding chilling
And in this position, the game was stopped, since one of the players, although looking very focused at the board, had actually been dead for 30 minutes.
LMAOOOO dude so far this is the funniest comment, so bored of the ding jokes, this one is fresh
This is definitely my top 3 most favorite moments of the match
Why doesn’t ding take nepos rook with his bishop after moving his queen to c3 16:31
Quality title action - Excellent fighting analogies. Set everybody up. I saw the result at work and was eager to see the analysis - and even knowing the outcome you had me doubting.
I am supporting Ding but I felt bad for Ian man, he looked so devastated.
Noooooooooo
@IDK Traxler counter attack:
@@tomatoxd69420Darknight gambit is way better bro way more deadly
@IDK you have to know this!
@IDK bot alert
Levy describing a hockey fight was so accurate as to why we love them. True genius
18:23 what kind of “hahwawhaia what is going on!?” is that
'If you're livin' under the brige that's fine" Levy is just too funny. Woke up after grinding out finals and I needed that laugh.
As exciting as the individual games of this wcc have been, I just can’t imagine Magnus missing anywhere near as many winning moves as these two have.
I think that's the great part of Magnus no longer competing at the WCC, he was too dominant, too clean. While I love watching his mostly flawless games, they're cold and efficient. These games have been hot and chaotic at the highest level, and it's so refreshing to watch
Yes but ding and nepo are more relatable. So we love ding and nepo ❤. Hope ding wins
@@boxofcans461 same
The funny thing is Magnus is a pretty cool guy in everyday life, but on the chess board, he's a cold, murder machine. He's like invincible. Whereas these two guys actually look human and relatable
Please just stop talking
That was absolutely catastrophic for Ian. What an insane match
This was an entertaining video on Levy’s part; the bazooka bit and boxing discussions and physical demonstrations were very amusing
14:07 Levy showin his martial arts
Honestly more impressive to me is the relative sportsmanship of both players, actually sitting and analyzing some positions from the game afterward. Sadly incredibly rare at such a high level. Almost sucks that this can’t be a drawn world champion. Some back and forth Rocky type stuff going on here. And we won’t know who Rocky was until it’s all over.
this is one of the best videos i've ever seen. the way he metaphorically describes the game is insanely accurate
I’m just happy to see it get back to tied. I just want to see both players have strong moments so whoever loses can seem like they at least put up a good fight
Levy, just wanted to tell you you are a master entertainer. For the first time in a while I had no idea what to expect and you really had me with the whole "it was a good game while it lasted" thing. Thanks for making these videos, you're awesome
Fr fr
The end of the game was truly heartbreaking
Git it aint been 16 mins
Bro the video came out a minute ago
@@xtezzeract Yeah, but the original commenter must’ve seen the live broadcast 😅
Its Only Been 20 Seconds
Umm the game was streamed on TH-cam? The ending can be known before watching this video
watching unfold live was crazy. very happy I tuned in after not watching the last 2 games
The simple explanation is that someone paid them both to play "Never let them know your next move"
12:13 Levy became the pot guy from Plants Vs Zombies 😭😭
I can't stop watching it 😭💀
Crazy Levy
Ding is showing absolute resilience throughout this match. After coming back this game and dealing with leaked prep, I have to give tons of props to him
Nah, if anything Ding should thank Nepo. That man is a master at throwing away games. He is so good at it, it's like an art in itself.
That get outta here at the end was so seamless
I really like the actuality in your recap, mentioning the recent boxing match and ufc matches to make anologies. So cool 😁🔥🔥
we need to revisit this match sometime in the future in "Guess the Elo" episode
12:30 "I am not in danger... I am the danger"
Exciting back n forth. Ding's queen went crazy
That was an incredible recap. You were perfect.
To everyone who has not seen the game live. The frustration and devastation in nepos face and body language after f5 was so heartbreaking to watch.
Yeah. It's not his first time playing too fast. Like seriously, doesn't he learn
it was great for me since i was rooting for ding
I was able to tune in for about 15 minutes when I woke up, came in about two moves before.... then watched Ian's suffering for 9 minutes before having to go was a sight to see, can't imagine how that felt :(
@@o_s-24didn't he spend like 17 minutes on that move? I don't think he rushed it.
@@anthonyjs8048 he was already lost on that move. i think os is talking about when he lost his advantage
!!!!!!This match is WILD!!!! Great coverage Levi. I look forward to each recap 👏👏
Mindblowinggggg thank you so much for these recaps......VERY insightful and humbling
There's not even a rest day tomorrow so hoping Ian can recover as quickly as possible because the fights still not over and now the road to victory is now gonna be longer than ever for both players...
Thank you for all these recaps, i have been following the entire event and even after the game finishes i am looking at you channel if you have already posted the recap. You give great insights and have a great sense of humor and you make me understand the moves they are playing. Thank you for everything you do for us.
The Beauty of the blunders and when ding FINALLY played a good move and win
9:28 is one of my favorite Gotham moments to date
I hadn’t seen it yet but I trust you and agree
Watching this live was an absolute rollercoaster of emotions, one of the most entertaining games I’ve ever watched
Yes. The moment Ian realized (and the 20 or some minutes that followed) was a gutwrenching, heartbreaking coronation to what already was an incredible game.
This game was beautiful, tragic, wild, hopeful, disastrous, confusing, heartbreaking, amazing, and so much more! I'm so glad we're going to get at least 14 games in this championship!
So many adjectives for one game of chess, it’s truly quite lovely to see so many so passionate about a chess WC
I really enjoy how you recap these games, while holding my attention the entire time.
"It's round number five of a five round fight.."
Levy, you're a poet
I love how you perfectly sold the disapointment when Ding was losing, I was alredy sad about it, all the way to the end
i woke up to see Ding completely lost. I took a shower and ate breakfast and he was completely winning. that was such an epic game in such an epic match
So many unexpected boxing and MMA references I love it!!!! I was already a Gotham fan but I adore it
The acting in the first half was fantastic, for the first time it really fooled me and I really thought Ian was gonna win
missed opportunity to say "rooket launcher" on 12:39
This was also the very first Chess world championship match that I followed live. It was exciting and really fun to see live! A completely different feel than watching these recaps of just the game, because the camera on the players gives it a whole different feeling. Watching them mentally break down. BUT I was also really hyped for the GothamChess recap because so many crazy things happened in this game. I kept thinking: What would Levy think about this? (If you read all this, thank you, you are beautiful)
"I'm like a 300 ELO at boxing..." 🙂
I have to add this analogy for so many things not in my repertoire.
I think the highlight of this match was seeing gotham do some sort of shadow realm boxing
Honestly Levy, this is one of your best recaps to date. Thrilling stuff.
This entire match has been a rollercoaster, and that feels like an understatement. Whoever wins this at the end, massive respect to both of them.
Levi can you please upload a guide about dutch defense? Thank you in advance
Absolutely loving this WC. I feel like this is what this match should be like always. Perfectly played games that end in draws gets really old really quick. Games where GMs get pushed to the end of their ropes and start making massive blunders with decisive victories going both ways? That's how you get people to watch and care about the match. Nothing against Ian but I'm onboard the Ding hype train. Dude plays some wild games of chess that are just fun to watch.
"Pogo-sticks to the stars!!!" Best quote.
Levy's descend into madness during this year's wcc is a treat to watch
Holy cow this series has been amazing
I think I remember watching a previous levy video a while back between beginners where he was roasting the opening Ding did here lol
This might be your most exciting recap yet. Thanks for doing such a great job telling the story of this game.
Levy’s recaps actually get me so hyped. Love these videos ❤️❤️
Thank you Magnus Carlsen for being the proprietor sponsorship for this amazing championship.
This is definitely better than watching Magnus smoke either of them lol
@@Icannottolerateit 'Smoke'? Carlsen actually had a pretty difficult time against Nepo at the last championship until Nepo started to blunder after game 6. At this level it's all about willpower rather than actual ability to calculate. It's not actually that complicated to compute chess moves, everyone can see the best moves when they're not playing. Since Carlsen isn't motivated, even if he were to play at this match he'd just loose since he has no motivation.
@@CNFrostXY If he would play, he would prepare. So he would not lose. There is still not a single chess expert in the world assuming they are stronger than Magnus. He just stepped down because he does not want to prep after 10 years of prep. He would have smoked Ian again, everyone knows it. You can actually see the mental weakness of Ian in all the games. Having so many decisive games means they struggle hard, making mistakes. So if you really believe Magnus would lose against this blunder fest called WC, then you have not a single clue about chess xD The only reason why it is entertaining to watch, is because they are making so many mistakes, resulting in decisive games.
@@CNFrostXY Ian had never been close to a winning position vs Magnus
@@CNFrostXY Tbf Nepo is out here blundering this match just as much as the other. The difference is Magnus didnt make the blunders that Ding has
What an amazing game! It was literally “Epic.” The twists, turns, stakes, & emotions. Everything you need in a great story. Also, great commentary as usual Levy. You really brought life into this game.
Great recap as always, could you include what move the game is on in your analysis when you show other lines - It would speed up looking up the position and following faster when rewinding. Or when you just want to hop in to see for yourself with an engine without following entire way.
This world championship is such an emotional roller-caster
Heartbreaking for Nepo but this is getting more exciting!!
His boxing 🥊 when he was talking about hockey fights lol😂
I love Levi's imitation of a hockey fight.
Ding did absolutely what he needed to do. Nepomniatchchi wanted to draw this game - and playing conventional stuff would put him in confort zone. If game 12 ended in a draw, he would've just needed to secure a draw in game 13 to be crowned world champion.
So Ding came and did a completely chaotic non sensical opening. He played, a bit like Magnus, aggressive moves that weren't ideal, that often put him in a disadvantage. But those moves made Nepomniatchchi completely stuck : he had to find only one move in a lot of positions - every other moves were losing right on the spot. He often found them as they weren't complicated, but you only need one miss, one moment where you miscalculated a sequence of moves, and this changes everything.
I'm certain Rapport helped Ding with the mindset he needed for game12, and that payed off. He tried everything and was rewarded !
Now, the entire World Championship will be decided on only two games : Nepomniatchchi with white on game 1, Ding with white on game 2. This is sensational, what a crazy world championship we're witnessing
To be fair, a draw today and a draw tomorrow would have left Nepo on 7 points, not 7.5. So he would have still needed a draw or better in game 14 to win. If Nepo would have won today, he'd only need a draw in game 13.
Having Rapport as second is the best thing Ding could ask for, the man's creativity combined with Ding's accuracy and brilliant moments in middle game is unbeatable
I agree, but the move he missed is seriously dire, not something a player of his calibre should ever miss
Bro is acting like thiss is some ding masterclass chess wise or pschyology wise
25 moves in ian was clearly winning with black but lost only due to5 blunders
Not becauze he couldnt find the best move
Ok
Actually an insane world championship. Turns out the last two quiet games were just tension before this absolutely craziness
Imagine the tie-breaks. Those will be absolute pandemonium
the first draw was not quiet, ding gave up an absolute sitter because of an absolute chaos of bad moves by both players equaled the position, second one was boring
Can't tell what was better, the match or the recap. That rocket launcher line... I'm crying :D
“I’m like 300 Elo in boxing” beautiful analogy levy
This Chess Championship is going in the history books.
9:35 funny thing about this is that horses literally see like that, totally blind to what's right in front of their super long snoot
Lots of blunders, nerves were starting to wrack
Ian is just doing it for the plot atm.
I just want to say how hugely enjoyable your synopses of these games are. Highlight of the day stuff.
This game got me into reaching my peak heartbeat. Insane
When gotham gets a video game ad, you know its over
Jan kept the right hand low and Ding landed that Leon kick at the end, man what a roller coaster of a game
