Wanting your student to succeed is the key to being a good teacher. Danya wants just that. He is never toxic, he is never demeaning. He is just showing his emotions, cause he is invested in this. And that is one of the reasons that the Danya/Charlie saga is so powerful. And I also think this is why Pogchamps is such a good tournament. The players really want to do well. Their teachers are invested. A lot of time is spent on it. Yup. It is gold and I hope we will see many more Pogchamps and Charlie/Danya videos in the future.
True, I don’t get the gatekeeping of some grandmasters thinking that pogchamps should not be considered as a chess tournament. Chess is chess, like all sports there are different levels to it, and of course pogchamps is nowhere near the level of grandmasters. But, that does not mean that it should not be acknowledged and considered as chess. I get that pogchamps can be quite cringy for grandmasters, because of the blunders and all but what can they expect? They are not professional chess players but entertainers with a huge following. Yes, the fans may watch it solely because of the streamer, but that does not take away the fact that they are playing chess. As someone who has known the game since the age of 7, in my opinion chess is not always about finding the perfect moves and appreciating the beauty of those moves, it can simply be two people playing against each other, whether there are people watching or not.
Well no more pog champs chess been around for centuries an it's not that popular you gotta know it's not gonna last in popularity with twitch an streaming bud
He needs to think on his opponents turns. I don't see him doing it as much as he should. Thinking, if they do this, I'll do this. If they do that, ill do this. Clock has been an issue always. That Armageddon is just brutal but he should at least get better at managing his 10min games.
It's crazy how he kinda spirals into a weird place whenever he faces unknown positions. Charlie ignores potential good finds and tunnels into some weird half assed solutions.
Yeah like on 37:47 “do I want the bishop or the pawn to take” come on maaaan I wonder what he was thinking about before he offered that trade.. And then blocks his bishop.
The way I teach my students confidence is quite simple. "Shut up and move" i have my students talk their way through their ideas as they play against me in casual moves, if they start to take too long i tell them to shut up and move. Eventually they start telling themselves that in their heads while calculating in ranked games. It makes them play faster and also increases their confidence in their moves rather than overthinking
@@theflyingdude6523 I do think Jesus is the underdog against Rainn, the chance of him winning is low but anything can happen. Maybe he can make a miracle. Lol
Are we really not gonna talk about the fact that Danya rejected Alireza's offer for a rematch just to watch Charlie play? It really shows his support for Charlie and how close they are.
@@AdityaFingerstyle True tho but many teachers not only in chess but in other fields as well just teach just for the money and content. This really shows that Daniel is the best👌
26:54 In that position you had enough tempi from the pawns on a, b and c files to go Kf6... d8 knight promotion and Ne6#. Charlie needs his chess troll developed.
Awesome job, and well played for the most part, by both well coached Pogchamps! Cheers. Just hard for experienced players/masters to watch due to slow play on what's so obvious to us, or missing important moves like just sacking the Bishop to save the Queen (and Bishop anyway too), lol -- funny though. We all had to learn somehow. Puzzles are a much better way indeed. Ggs, thx!
I feel like they increased his strength lately. I used to beat him 80-90% of the time, but yesterday I struggled really hard to not lose 4 games in a row. maybe I just got worse too
It's ok, in anime the main character always have that training phase and comes back with a new moves, this is just that momment, see you guys after the times skip..
sadly Charlie was too much of a pessimistic guy that he forgets that this is amateur tourney and he is not fighting against master level opponents and his opponents can still blunder too (see Mr.Beast game where Charlie lost his queen but won the game)
Sorry Alireza, I can't play any longer. Telling TOP10 bullet player in the world you have better things to do because he'd rather spectate Charlie's game. Inspiring.
Lmao I really enjoyed Danyas commentary because it's exactly what I do when I watch my dad play. It's not frustrating to watch a newbie miss tactics, but it's really frustrating to see them take really long for simple moves in non critical positions.
the chat always blows me away like they dont realize that danya is watching his student and friend play an exciting tournament. if your coach in any sport doesnt get this invested in your games, find a new coach
I think Danya is seriously underestimating the boardsight it takes to see that sort of Queen steal. The vast majority of 500s couldn't see it, and I bet a lot of 12k players miss it as well. Edit: I love how Danya is talking about how Charlie was emotionally devastated by missing the Queen steal... but I don't think Charlie ever even noticed! He talks about the fork at the end, not the chance to steal the Queen.
If I have to choose where a draw is a win, I obviously would go black. There so many opening that the chance of you drawing the game is way higher compare to losing.
did anyone watch Hammer's commentary on Benji's game last night? It was awesome. After the game he's telling benji "ooh you can practice Friday?" like, quit your pro fortnite stuff just play chess instead
its so adorable how invested danya is in his boy i love it
who are you and why are you everywhere?
Absolutely suprised to see you here love your content man. great games from both players.
Sup youre dope
Danya is invested into each and every person he teaches.
It is awesome how different he is with different people.
Just compare QT and Charlie lessons
It's love
The prophet is not angry, just disappointed.
Everyone knows that that is always worse 😭
@@firoen we all do
:'(
At least he is not as disappointed as hikaru watches pvc.
37:58 'psychologically just completely collapsed' ..dayum
I love how Danya anxiously keeps trying to move the pieces with his own mouse.
19:49 "Well, the problem with Charlie is that he hasn't solved any puzzles."
The prophet did not yet know how right he was...
When the prophet speaks its always true
Are you referring to charlie getting clapped last game or something else?
31:21, as that move apparently was a classic puzzle and he messed up by capturing a Queen and Ludwig also captured his Queen.
The prophet strikes again
Wanting your student to succeed is the key to being a good teacher. Danya wants just that. He is never toxic, he is never demeaning. He is just showing his emotions, cause he is invested in this. And that is one of the reasons that the Danya/Charlie saga is so powerful.

@@johnnyboy5073 lol you don't sound like you have many people in your life who love you

Lol what did he say
@@DakingofAP some shit about being called out predictable
@@DakingofAP it was his big lead up to playing the Scandinavian as his plot twist lol
Classic Ludwig lol
hilarious

31:15

Holy fudge man that reaction just literally breaks up my heart every time I watch it.
“If he justs makes a move instead of losing on time”
“I have enough time to think this through”
27:21 "Amazing game! This is the best game he's ever played"
Man, I'm crying.
Next game: "No no no no no that's not the way you want to do it, wow wow wow that's already a disaster"
right?
Judging by the investment in the last match this might be a hard watch
Yeah I was thinking if he got so invested in the set with Mr. Beast.. this is gonna hurt :(
yeah, same, I don't think I can watch this, so I'm gonna skip this one. I just came to read the comments.
@@compilationsmania451 it’s hard, but it’s worth watching for the experience. it was very intriguing watching this live
@@compilationsmania451 Well worth a watch, it's great chess!
Just watch the first one, it's pretty entertaining with a happy ending
31:00 "Ludwig can blunder his queen like this"
Danya the prophet, 2021
Charlie not finding that is heartbreaking :|
0:45 The dualism of man
"He plays with the scandinavian,so that's already a opening surprise"
"That son of a bitch!"
He needs to think on his opponents turns. I don't see him doing it as much as he should. Thinking, if they do this, I'll do this. If they do that, ill do this. Clock has been an issue always. That Armageddon is just brutal but he should at least get better at managing his 10min games.
Yeah he seems to tunnel vision on a plan, I do it too.
It's crazy how he kinda spirals into a weird place whenever he faces unknown positions. Charlie ignores potential good finds and tunnels into some weird half assed solutions.
@@damiester1 sounds a lot like xqc
He needs to learn to just fucking move
Yeah like on 37:47 “do I want the bishop or the pawn to take” come on maaaan I wonder what he was thinking about before he offered that trade.. And then blocks his bishop.
That was the most intense gasp I've ever heard
Charlie I hope this makes him more interested in improving for real
31:00 the prophet does it again
Wait no way.
"Man ... big reads" 31:10
Chin up there Sensei and Fisto, the tourney continues, the story has yet to be written. The prep for the “Dwight Fight” starts now. Give em hell boys!
The miss at 31:24 was quite depressing :(
"telling somebody to work on his nerves doesnt make them less nervous"
Very good job understanding this.
The way I teach my students confidence is quite simple. "Shut up and move" i have my students talk their way through their ideas as they play against me in casual moves, if they start to take too long i tell them to shut up and move. Eventually they start telling themselves that in their heads while calculating in ranked games. It makes them play faster and also increases their confidence in their moves rather than overthinking
It's inspiring how Danya takes blame for Charlie's mistakes. Definitely Danya is the best chess teacher. I wish I could learn from him.
every time you watch him you can learn something. he may not teach you directly but if you watch and learn something he is teaching you.
The enthusiasm and commentating is amazing, dont even need to watch can just listen and still super entertaining
i want to see charlie reacting back to this. shit's hard
The crestfallen look on Danya's face says everything. It shows how much he cares about his students' success.
This serves as a learning experience for Charlie. He'll comeback stronger
@@lachicadeldiablo20 I'm rooting for Jesus and prophet.
Rainn is unfortunatly a little too strong for Jesus
Sadly i think Charlie will get destroyed by Rainn since he's much higher rated then Charlie but pogchamps 4 is always in sight
@@theflyingdude6523 I do think Jesus is the underdog against Rainn, the chance of him winning is low but anything can happen. Maybe he can make a miracle. Lol
Rain made a lot of botez gambit before tho, maybe he would do it again the next time he matches Charlie
Are we really not gonna talk about the fact that Danya rejected Alireza's offer for a rematch just to watch Charlie play? It really shows his support for Charlie and how close they are.
what ??? Him not watching Charlie's game and continuing playing with Alireza would be the weird thing.
@@AdityaFingerstyle True tho but many teachers not only in chess but in other fields as well just teach just for the money and content. This really shows that Daniel is the best👌
That, and commentating on Charlie’s match live gets him a ton of viewership (which is good)
@@puenboy1 and he’s played hundred and hundreds of games with alireza
Gotta prepare myself. This is gonna be an emotional roller coaster.😱
I screamed whenever Danya screamed this was so emotionally draining
26:54 In that position you had enough tempi from the pawns on a, b and c files to go Kf6... d8 knight promotion and Ne6#. Charlie needs his chess troll developed.
Against xqc Charlie was throbbing in the second game against Ludwig he was just flaccid
31:02 prophet indeed!🙌👌

Hi bud
how the fuck is the reply earlier than the original, thats just how powerful this man is

32:59 “Am not mad is just disappointing”
ditched alireza to watch charlie play in pogchamps. if that's not love i don't know what is
31:10 The Prophet works his miracles once again
This was heartbreaking to watch
23:36 Amazing roast LUL
Without watching, I can tell you this: Where Charlie misses a free queen, Daniel is going to rip him a new one.
Worth adding: Daniel is a passionate teacher. And Charlie can handle it. Don't fuckin flame him for it.
31:15 man just walks out of the room
I get second hand anxiousness watching this omg 😣
Awesome job, and well played for the most part, by both well coached Pogchamps! Cheers.

"Ludwig should be 1500" makes sense why his bot is 1200 and unbeatable lol
His bot always plays an excellent or best move.
Ludwigs bot is crazy easy... what do you mean?
Unbeatable? Hahaha oh dear
I feel like they increased his strength lately. I used to beat him 80-90% of the time, but yesterday I struggled really hard to not lose 4 games in a row. maybe I just got worse too
@@franzi93 ok after reading this comment I went back to beat him again and he's smashing me now, definitely still doable tho
31:15 man daniya was so excited omg ran like a teen girl haha
"A russian man gets progressively angry while watching a clock" colorized 2021
It's ok, in anime the main character always have that training phase and comes back with a new moves, this is just that momment, see you guys after the times skip..
imagine this: the entire 55 minute video was ludwig being AFK and everyone awkwardly sitting there
55 minutes of danya analysing every possible line after 1 e4
All that build-up to drop the spaghetti all over...
2:20 the prophet says to play Ke2. "Develop your pieces"
That suggestion was from chat
THE PROPHET STRIKES AGAIN AND PREDICTS LUDWIG MISSED HIS QUEEN
sadly Charlie was too much of a pessimistic guy that he forgets that this is amateur tourney and he is not fighting against master level opponents and his opponents can still blunder too (see Mr.Beast game where Charlie lost his queen but won the game)
charlie's armageddon
>spend 50% of your time in the opening
>blitz rest of the game when you actually need to think for a second
31:14 is the moment you're looking for
I want Danya as my coach. He’s straight up the best man. Everyone just needs someone who believes in them.
Sorry Alireza, I can't play any longer.
Telling TOP10 bullet player in the world you have better things to do because he'd rather spectate Charlie's game. Inspiring.
I’m going to do puzzles now...
2:20 seems like a good idea, late bongcloud
Delayed bongcloud
This video was heartbreaking
23:10 special offer
Lmao I really enjoyed Danyas commentary because it's exactly what I do when I watch my dad play. It's not frustrating to watch a newbie miss tactics, but it's really frustrating to see them take really long for simple moves in non critical positions.

real time prophecy
That first game almost gave me heart palpitations
the chat always blows me away like they dont realize that danya is watching his student and friend play an exciting tournament. if your coach in any sport doesnt get this invested in your games, find a new coach
prophet, how do you see the prophecy not once but twice?
I had to watch the first game on 1.5 speed 😂😂😂😂
" I forgot this was the 5 minutes " 🤣🤣🤣
Charlie missed the queen tactics because he was tilted from losing his knight
If Danya ever coaches me I‘m going to make damn sure I do puzzles for 27 hours per day.
I think Danya is seriously underestimating the boardsight it takes to see that sort of Queen steal. The vast majority of 500s couldn't see it, and I bet a lot of 12k players miss it as well.

He pogged lmao
If I have to choose where a draw is a win, I obviously would go black. There so many opening that the chance of you drawing the game is way higher compare to losing.
Danya is such a legendary coach. So much passion for the game
Missing bishop c3 was huge, still great play relative to the experience of the players.
This commentary is so wholesome
31:00 That's our prophet.
Don’t worry so much about the chat they love to troll
the fact danya was literally so happy for him.
31:00 no way
has charlie been training with danya off stream? Its going to be a difficult one against rain tomorrow. Hopefully he can pull an upset

@@ChessJourneyman but that's what he is
So hype in the first game 😂 epico mr prophet
Alireza can wait. Charlie is playing.
The prophet! Predicting that queen blunder!
I suffered just as much. Was rooting for Charlie all the while but the nerves got to him. : (
Danya wasn’t even mad about the missed queen. Until his fuckin chat pissed him off
That first game was really good, I would have thought they were both above 1000 blitz, Ludwig spots tactics insanely well for a 900 blitz player.
This is somehow super entertaining. I'd have missed that queen tactic at 31 minutes too lol.
Danya Charlie content all-time as always! And a match against Ludwig? badass, such a cool game too
No way Charlie wins from Rain Wilson. He’s choking too much
I thoroughly enjoyed this.
I stopped the video after what happened at 31:10 ... I have to do more puzzles
Holy moly daniel in so invested in jesus wick
