hikaru's face tells you pretty much what an engine would tell you, you can tell a blunder or a brilliant move right away without even looking at the board

I want to see xQc vs xQc, but with one being helped by Hikaru Nakamura, and another being helped by Magnus Carlsen.
That will be hilarious 🤣

So it’s basically Hikaru vs Magnus but with handicap

Agreed

This will be more wild if they do the opposite, x tell which piece to move than hikaru find the move xD
Queen is under attack. xQc: "Move the King to safety"
This actually a good idea for new content, new Pepega moment of course
New content pepelaugh
theyve done this heaps of times
It's just hand brain. Shouldn't Hikaru be teaching xQc new moves for Pogchamps 4?
@@brucewayne2184 Hikaru isn’t helping with pog champs 4 since they scheduled it over one of his over the board tournaments :(
@@brucewayne2184 xqc isn’t even in the new pogchamp tho no?
1:26:15
Hikaru: I think we close to winning here
Xqc: I think im throwing
I mean he did throw shortly after
PepeMeltdown
the duality of man
I hope hikaru doesn't get disappointed as the last time with Charlie
Such good memories.
Peak variety Xqc.
He really did come back from that, I remember he absolutely blasted through a tournament.
Hikaru was void in that charlie match
" Ludwig is a bot. One thing goes wrong and he falls apart"
Also Ludwig: Wins the whole tournament
Yeah. I think the favorite returning players for Pogchamps have been Charlie, Lud, and X but X never practices or studies, Charlie doubts him self too much, and Lud takes a lesson almost every week. X was outpaced by the last Pogchamps and it isn't getting closer. He doesn't really realize how much they've gotten better.
@@TheLivingShadow_ wdym x never practices, he play chess everyday that time
@@igustiaditya6240 Dude he is streaming all the time. We can see that he doesn't practice, and every pogchamps Hikaru mentions that he offered to tutor X and X never got back to him. He's the only pogchamps participant that doesn't take any personal teaching beforehand.
@@TheLivingShadow_ he plays a lot offstream you can see his rating clearly improved since the early days
@@xsah2 Bro he first reached 1000 legitimately in November of last year and he's 1020 right now. Stop the copium dude we'll all overdose.
He takes a lot of time when he doesn't need to and uses no time when he needs to think.
It’s because he can’t differentiate between the two, pattern recognition with chess knowledge will get you wins. He has a little pattern recognition and not enough chess knowledge
its so funny to see hikaru praising his moves while he thinks hes throwing nice content
That was so funny when X asked if Hikaru was sure about moving the rook
Xqc intelligence level is over 9000 but he cannot show his true potential or governments would snatch him.

there is no way this guy is a 1000

Bro that was funny af
1:26:07 This one is also good
Also 51:46 how he takes it lmaaoo this dude 😂😂😂
What happened?
repent to God
That last loss was brutal.
That first pawn just waltzing past was a power move
Hahahahhaha
ive been always watching xqc for a few years now and i dont really comment on the videos but i gotta say this chess and hikaru content is what i watch everyday and it's been a while since we got any chess content from xqc, i really like it and i hope x does more chess !
40:25 ForsenE lined up in chat
Hikaru’s pain when xQc blunders 😂
It’s so funny when xqc makes a move he thinks he’s bad and is explaining how he thinks it’s terrible and at the same time hikaru is explaining how it’s an amazing move
I mean this is insane… how the fuck is he rated 1000… the more I watch this the more I can’t believe he’s anywhere NEAR 1000.. he gotta just be the best actor of all time and actually be good at chess when he’s not streaming
Alternate title: Can xqc throw the game when GM hikaru tries to carry him?
Tbh it feels like you’d play worse if someone is telling you pieces to move. Cause obv you won’t see the game on hikarus level and then just end up moving random pieces
But it'll really narrow down the number of moves you have to consider.
xQc: Makes a move
Me: That was a good move
Hikaru: Shakes his head
Me: Terrible move u trash
You could tell pretty easily tell the bads from the goods ESPECIALLY the last king g6 which completely threw the game even I a 500 would have easily gotten it right
10:11 xqc didnt even see he was protecting the pawn lol he was going for checkmate, but Hikaru on low depth didnt see that brilliancy lol.
Its the funniest thing when xqc was surprised that wasnt the plan at all xD
I love how nice hikarau is after he blunders his winning position with mate in one
Hikaru: “it was all good… well I mean you completely blunder moving to that one square, any other square would have been fine… you made some really huge mistakes overall… but you know, it happens”
51:00 qxc thought he had a tactic to win the bishop lol and thought Hikaru didn't see it but it hangs mate in 1 on with Qd8 at the end.
I love when xqc plays chess. Bring it back
It seems Frank is now the new xQc
One of my favorite moment 42:38
And thats check mate
You know it's genius when he made an arrow of a pawn going backwards
xQc: Can GM Hikaru Carry xQc in a Chess Tournament?
Me: No
X making goblin faces throughout is the best thing!
Hikaru is still so positive despite the result :)
Glad they could have fun
It's so good how xQc spotted a good tatics taking the knight on E3 to then take the bishop with check, but missed the fact that he is getting back rank mated in the end of this line and even got pissed for Hikaru not suggesting that move hahahahaha. It happens at 50:50
It's odd that he struggles more with an open board than when there's only a few key pieces left.
I don't know about the rest of you guys but I struggle the most when all there's a fuckload of pieces attacking tons of different pieces
when theres many pieces on the board = fewer possible moves for a given piece, some more obvious and easier to spot
few pieces remainin on the board= so much more possible moves for a piece, very hard to find which ones the best
lets say its a rook endgame, that would be really difficult, because the instructions are just king-rook-pawn, it would be SO much harder to find which king/rook move is the best given so many squares on the board
@@emiraryaputra4900 not true though
@@dajanacoric5495 lmao, explain why engine sucks at endgame then.
@@Nnm26 no it doesn't?
@@dajanacoric5495 yes, it does lmao. That's why they have to implement tablebase in every engine. After a certain point the engine stop calculate and uses what it has memorized because there are simply way too many variations.
... yea and no one talks about hikaru's faces that:
tells you pretty much what an engine would tell you, you can tell a blunder or a brilliant move right away without even looking at the board;
tells you if he (xqc) did a good move or not;
are the best thing...
and much more
I didn't know Chess is Genshin Impact, thanks RUclips PagMan
Probably because of his anime tag on stream
Whatareyoutalkingabout?
53:03 after all them lessons, you can tell he is disappointed
Hikaru looked like a proud dad when he makes the right move
46:03 I was confused first by his reaction but then I realise felix could have gotten a queen instead by moving his knight to f3
Hikaru tries so hard to hint without directly saying it haha
"Ludwig is a bot."

Reunited once again! FeelsStrongMan
lmao idk but yall but every move xQc did i always looked at hikaru face, and once i see hikaru disappointed face i just yell at the screen as if i saw that brilliant move that hikaru saw
51:00 is the best part of this whole video
51:03 LOL I can just see how angry xQcOW is that his plan wasn't the best
20:59 at first I thought hikaru blundered here but if you don’t give up the knight to close to h file I think white gets caught in a mating net.
Hikaru would never blunder against >1200 rated players online unless purposely doing so.
What else did this pepega expect. Unlike him, most of these players in the tournament had practiced prior to the games for days. No shit he lost all of his games.
He still made really good moves for someone who didn’t practice as much.
@@GD-jy4oz but still lost tho. I'd wish he took it seriously. It would have been so cool to win a rivals after getting banned lol
come on man i was still watching
51:11 I love the “fuck you” as he tries to back rank mate himself in the same way he just desperately defended
always enjoy the chess content. i get a better understanding of it watching these rather than being lost all the time trying to figure it out by myself 😂
At 7:59 why isn’t it check mate if he moved his bishop to a3 then he can’t take the bishop cause the queen will take the queen. So then he can just take the pawn at b2 with the queen and then the queen would be protected by the bishop so it will be checkmate.
I think black would play Ng3, blocking the queens pin on the pawn, so white would just have to move the bishop back and black would develop a piece.
xQ6 is back on track! ...and he falls off instantly
I wish they collab more its so entertaining xD
Ludwig is a bit better than xQc, but I also think that Hess was mainly looking for pieces such that Ludwig wouldn't blunder. Sometimes the best moves can be with the same piece as the biggest blunder.
Hess definately knows Ludwig and his abilities better than Hikaru knows xqc. You are right. That's why the H&B format is so genius. You don't need the best hand or brain to win. Both players working as a team will compensate a lot for huge ELO differences.
Well, Ludwig won the entire tournament, so losing to him is not that bad. But that last throw of XqC was... pepepains.
That whole dialogue "They are already confused, they don't know what they are doing, Ludwig is a bot, a one-trick andy" ended up aging REALLY fucking bad.
The shit talk is just banter. People should be more relaxed about it.
1:21:42 look at Hikaru's face LOL
He thought xQc blundered there but then was relieved after he saw the tactic
46:00 69 IQ moment
Editor is a real one on this video 👍👍
51:02 was the best moment
TIME TO THROW POGCHAMP
Title should be hikaru dying with every few seconds of incorrect moves
the way he was moving his rooks at the endgame was painful
Okay so no joke...I've been watching xQc lightly for a long time...way before his chess phase...and I'm actually super impressed with his memory recall and puzzle cognition. Like at 1:09:00, Hikaru references the PREVIOUS game, and xQc actually knows exactly the point in the game Hikaru is referring to. His ascent from almost nothing to 1000+ within only a few coaching sessions and some grinding is super impressive. This isn't a dig on xQc...but his every-day content, expressions, and general mannerisms really don't bode high cognition. I get that that's a dig, but it's really not meant to be. Just an honest assessment of how he portrays himself in the day-to-day streams. When in fact, his cognitive ability is super impressive.
I disagree with your assessment. I find that a lot of his content shows his intelligence, although it would make sense that people could interpret it as idiocy.
I only ever watched him play a horror game and the game was supposed to be guiding you to make the decision of not running everywhere because otherwise the monster will hear you. He interpreted it in the COMPLETE reverse. His conclusion was that he had to haul ass EVERYWHERE ASAP because the monster will always catch him unless he can accomplish the objective quickly enough. He made the strategy work and it was quite impressive. He's surprisingly resourceful.
In the famous words of XQC himself, "Sooo bad."
1:26:06 xqc talking over hikaru complimenting him is comedy gold
Hikaru is so patient and understanding. Then X flips him off when he doesn't like a super GMs suggestion. Then I'm pretty sure Hikarus chat told him because you see his face later, his face of utter shock and disappointment.
at 9:22 he could have moved his bishop to h-6 and got check mate within the next move of moving his queen to g-7 and taking the pawn having the the bishop back his queen- any one else see this ?
Ng6 blocks the pin and attacks E5 pawn forcing bishop back to F4, giving black option to take only bishop and also 2 moves tempo lost.
51:00 lmao why is he so mad, he'd just get backrank mated lmao
Sadge my juicer doubting the chess overlord
I paused this accidentally, watched a solid 3 minutes of Hikaru and xqc sitting in dead silence because I thought he was thinking
Someone actually managed to say "perception rank 1" in emote only mode. Emote only mode brings out the creativity of chat.
Yeah wow title for vid needs to be xqc throws chess tournament repeatedly
42:38 built different
42:38 tryhard mode on XDDD
I love how xqc showed hikaru the middle finger when hikaru didn't let him blunder backrank mate. Also his confusion when he wasn't allowed to take the queen 😂😂
At 18:20, xQc actually sees a line where he takes the king with his rook. Absolutely hilarious! Loved this entire video. Especially with Hikaru's nonchalant commentary in the background.
Ngl, he got worse. On the last tourney, he was actually good.
True he hasn’t played chess in a while though
@@AhmedMohammed-wm2ng not really an excuse when he could have practice before the tourney, same reason he lost last tourney is lack of practice
7:58 Can someone explain why pushing the bishop , taking a free pawn, with the queen putting king in check in 2 moves and messing up his kings postion and defense wasn't the play ?! Very ametuer here , so i know the obvious move is often a wrong one taken in haste. I just dont see a downfall or trap involved and it does indeed seem like the play at hand. And then after making his move , the oppenent moves the rook from the trapped position, further leading me to believe the bishop should have been pushed with anpossible queen take with the bishop after an annattempt at defense with his knight and two checks. Just would like some insight on this, please. Is this a 5head move or am i oblivious to a trap ?
Im playing halo and listening to the stream and all i can hear is rook queen pawn
Chat was going ballistic
He really has improved a ton since i first saw him play chess. I actually found xqc and twitch from hikaru's youtube originally. He used to be a complete noob, now he uses pins and has a grasp of fundementals
What went wrong?
*Picks up the white rook on g5 and throws it in the bin
If striking is playing with queens on the board, BJJ groundwork is positional play with queens off gotta learn to play positional chess. 20.Rd3 would have sufficed to hold.
Xqc being 1000 rated is the most fucking mystifying thing I’ve ever seen.
6 days ago? Love to know they're still on it❤❤
Cant hikaru just tell him what to do ez win ez money
I haven’t even looked at the game once, I’m so busy staring at felix’s facial expressions
It’s like that moment from breaking bad where Walter asks Jessie what element conducts electricity and he answers the wire
1:13:27 the pupil is talking over the master!
dang, i missed this part of his stream, I did some homework, thank you editor for uploading this
X putting the finger up after he said pawn is the best thing ever xD
This seems like a really fun format for everyone involved, honestly.
Hi Hikaru or anyone in the comment section,I was wondering if Bh6 was a good move on 7:56 since the pawn is pinned and is threatening a checkmate
You can play it but after Ng6 you will just have to put it back and black gets a better square for the knight
@@vinith8669 oh I see it I missed that lol
EZ FOR WITOLD
46:01 fav moment 😲
This is a FeelsDankMan I have no clue what's happening
"I need my little arrows, my little thingies" KEKW
xQC's arrows are killing me. He spent like 30 secondings questioning whether knight takes pawn which was in the middle of a pawn chain. I can't bro, I can't...
*second game, when X missed knight check mate* 😂😂😂😂😂
