"We all love clicking game review and letting it show us how brilliant we are"
"243 blunders"
WHAT AND HOW
"In the 10 move"
it's more impressive to win with 243 blunders than 2 brilliant moves
@@scappley1735 it takes 2 to blunder to win a lost game
@@dj_koen1265 ive gotten 11 blunders and won💀
21:32 the reason the pawn marching forward is a brilliant move is because it inspires a whole RUclips video
😂
İ think it is because it gives a knight an escape route
@@murademinli3001 That's what I was thinking. It covers Nc2. That's all I got though.
It's because this pawn is getting close to become a queen. Also by sacrificing the rook queen gets in a very good position to destroy the white, by controlling the best diagonal and on the other end of the diagonal are all white pieces there for the taking.
@@Slav4o911 Just because it's on the 3rd rank, it's not much of a queen threat. I don't think that's it at all.
I remember when I told my 200 elo friend about game review and first time he used game review his opponent made 3 brilliant moves and those "brilliant" moves were taking 3 pawns with a queen.
Edit: so a lot of people think that when he took the pawns with a queen there was a piece hanging and I didn't see it, but no literally nothing was hanging he took 3 FREE pawns
One brilliant move i had was moving a pawn, it did literally nothing didnt attack or open anything up it just gave a brilliant for free
I had a brilliant move once that was nothing but developing my knight from its starting position
@@Thetravelingmonke welcome to the chess engine, it’s bad
I had a brilliant move where I castled long.
Could you do better?
This is heartbreaking. At 1278 ELO I only last week reached the peak of my chess career receiving my first Brilliant move.
Now Sensei says my brilliant move means nothing 😭😭😭
I reached mine at 500 I was so proud and now it means nothing 😢

Dude. I gotta say, where were these 300-500 elo when I was climbing... No one is nearly this lost when I was playing
Nowadays 1000s literally get estimates of 1600 on game review. I think the ratings r doing the opposite of inflating and now the lower ratings r way stronger
why this so relatable
@@Nightly_NightI started playing chess in April. I just reached 400 today. I have never played opponents as bad as some of the 700s and 800s that were in this video. I think even the 100s I played against in my first month were better than the 400s seen here.
Because you are the one
Bro the 300s I play are like 1400 istg 😭🙏
Had a brilliant move yesterday. Thanks Levi, can always count on you to break my heart.

Levi 🤡
Levy a few days ago: “I solved chess”
Levy today: “chess is fascinating and endless”
Lmao
Loop
yea it's called click baite
He may have solved it, but that doesn't mean there aren't endless games...
I have a question WHY DOES NO ONE KNOW WHY BISHOP B2 IS A BRILLIANT MOVE its cuz if they take the rook you take back and there is no bishop to protect f7 square so you move your bishop to f7 and if rook takes take their knight with your bishop in b2 if they recapture give a check to the king and pin the rook if they take checkmate and if they dont checkmate. thank you very much
The weirdest thing though is that a few years back, a brillant move actually was a move that wasn't even seen by Stockfish at first. Only after a few second of looking at the position and realizing that "your move" was better than "Stockfish's top choice" it was deemed brillant. Those were some of the best times because it actually meant you played a really really good move and it felt absolutely awesome to get one. Nowadays you just leave your pieces hanging and all of the sudden you are a genius. Kinda sad
How is it even possible to make a move that is better than Stockfish's top choice? Is it something like a depth thing? Or is it more like the "Stockfish best move" is a very computer move that is only the best if you play like Stockfish but is otherwise bad in a game between two humans?
@@Zulk_RS it's a move that stockfish misevaluates and only with time it realizes that's it's really really good. Didn't happen very often but when it did it felt amazing
How does that work though? Doesn't stockfish determine the quality of a move in the first place? Or do they use a different engine/higher depth to see what happens
They should bring this back. Made way more sense than the current system.
Stock fish is set to a cheers in depth. So if it calculates 18 moves down the line and says A is the best move, but you play B, now 18 moves down the line is 1 more move than before. So if the evaluation changes with that extra bit of depth, the move is deemed brilliant.
I think pawn to d3 is a brilliant move because it gives an escape square for the knight which was otherwise trapped in the corner
Great move
It also gives the bishop a view of the knights current position.
I also see checkmate im pretty sure
On this part 2:28
Still, you're blundering a rook
It is definitely elo based. I had two brilliant moves in a row, but when I checked the game again after going up around 200 elo, suddenly only one of them was brilliant.
It is prob elo based but every time that u run a game review,even of the same game the results can change slightly
@@thyblackpanthertrue it once said I made zero blunders in a game but later changed to one
@@bigfootsburneraccount9160 yeah i frequently finish games and it's like "SIX BLUNDERS" and then i open review and it's like "0 blunders 4 mistakes :)"
The higher the rating the harder brilliant moves are to attain
Im only 400 and never got any but I got a lot of great moves
When you see the elefant gambit, you know it’s either played by a 500, or it’s just Hikaru disrespecting his opponent
your english teacher must be giving you alot of blunders
My friend and I were once playing a game of chess and when we checked the review it said that me castling was a brilliancy, so now any time one of us castles we yell "brilliant move!"
as you should
THE ROOOOOOK jumps the king and he moves two which is cool and now I'm safe badabing badaboom
as the chess god intended
I remember I once got a brilliancy from castling, because I wanted to prevent a pawn from becoming a queen. I found the match recently and now it's only an excellent move.
My first ever brilliant move was castling as well. I just played it because I didn’t know what else to do lmaooo
22:32 I think the reason d3 is awarded "brilliant move" is because it allows the black knight to escape from the corner (by moving to c2 on the next move)
You don’t need to be at a disadvantage to get a brilliant move, it just needs to be a forcing and creative sacrifice.
Great moves, however, occur when any other move is bad, so some are easy to find and others difficult.
I would say that a third of the brilliant moves are also great moves
Sacrificing queen = great move 💀

Not only is the algorithm for brilliant moves connected to the ELO of the player, the estimated ELO at the end of the game is as well. For example, take the game Magnus played a couple weeks ago that estimated he played at a 3400-level. If you copy the PGN and remove the ELO for both players from it and run it through the Game Review again, it will say he played at a 2500-level.
Yes the Estimated elo is connected to players elo but *no* brilliant moves are not
I tried playing games (that other higher and lower players had brilliant move in) move by move from 0 and it still gave me the same result
I LOVE YOU!!! FINALKY SOMEONE WH UNDERSTANDS I'M TIRED OF SEEING NOOBS FLEXING THEIR BRILLIANT MOVES THAT ARE JUST DISCOVER ATTACKS AND THEN SAYING “OH LOOK STOCKFISH THINKS IM -- ELO OMG”
If the estimated elo is tied to your existing elo... Doesn't that kind of defeat the point?

that time when you, 900 elo rated, sacrifice a queen in order to get a backrank mate with a rook... that was the first brilliant I achieved knowing what I was doing (I had plenty of them but they were random knight moves for position).
It's been my experience that the easiest way to get a brilliant move evaluation is to sacrifice a piece offensively to crack open the king's position.
I'm old school and view the "brilliant" exclam (and especially double exclam) as requiring much more than an immediate tactical combo. It has to be something unbelievable, incredibly difficult to spot during a real game, and "surprisingly" effective. Something like Kasparov's Rxd4 in his immortal game is what's required.
I think there should be one additional level of !!! and ???. A move like Kasparov’s should be “legendary” and quite literally be nearly impossible to achieve for a human. ??? should be any incredibly obvious blunder that throws away an otherwise completely winning game into a now easily lost one.
that's what brilliant moves were before an update
@@64chess Instead of inflating even more categories those legendary moves you mentioned should be brilliant instead. Like a 0.0001 percent stuff.
At the end of the day it's an algorithm it will never be fully accurate and precise. For example I sacrificed a bishop in the hopes my opponent would take with the queen and not the king which made sense due to not castling yet, allowing me to get a fork on the king and queen. The computer regarded my bishop sacrifice as an inaccuracy. You see.
@@JC-ox8yl trading a bishop for revoking your opponent's castling rights isn't always a good deal, I'd say it rarely is
I think 21:32 is brilliant because the pawn makes a safe square (c2) for the knight to escape (while losing the rook)
but isnt saving the rook better than saving the knight tho..
@@sidroblox398 stockfish probably thinks that a knight next to the opponents king is more valuable than a rook doing nothing
its only brilliant cuz its one of the top (i think 3) moves and it sacrifices material
@@sidroblox398 if bishop takes rook you lose 5pts of material but take back 3 (-2 overall), if you let the knight ve taken you lose 3 points overall
@@sidroblox398 but you are not only saving the knight, you are also capturing the bishop (if we assume black knight would be captured it’s -2 material while saving black knight is +1 material advantage)
i think pawn push is brilliant because it allows you safely remove your more active piece from the corner(the knight) to safety while ignoring your less active piece(the rook)
I believe that, considering it's a game between 300s, move d3 (21:12) is considered a brilliant move because of the fact that there are ways that the player with the black pieces can still checkmate the opponent by not taking the bishop on a8. The move sequence would (possibly) be like this:
Bf2 d3
Bxa8 Bc3
Nxc3 bxc3
Rh4 Nc2
Kc1 Qg5+
Kb1 Na3+
Ka1 Qc1#
Alternative:
...
Ka1 c2
Bd4 Qc1#
But, only if something like that happens. Of course, there's probably another sequence of moves available that would lead to a checkmate, but that's for the 300s to try and find which will never happen :D

A 1600 elo play somehow managed to do a better rook sac than levy has. I DIDNT EVEN KNOW THAT WAS POSSIBLE
I swear I am 1900 and still shocked that 1600 has found such a move, insane
One time I played Queen to G3 and got a brilliant, and for some reason people began throwing gold coins on my board. Weird stuff.
Hey i think someone stole your story im not sure who tho
master beiber????? are you the guy named freddie??? :0
I think part of the algorithm is that brilliant moves are moves that are given as *terrible* moves by the engine on a shallow search depth but then turn out to be the best one for that scenario at a much greater depth. It's trying to mimic how humans see great moves, ones that look unintuitive or just bad at first glance but then turn out to be amazing when you think them through.
Bishop to B2 was how he set up the mating net. He used his bishop pair very well from what it seemed.
I think the last brilliant move is considered as such, cause it provides a safe escape for the knight
Thats what Im sayin

21:12 I can’t explain the brilliant move rating, but I can say it does 2 things:
1) protects the active knight and gives it a space to escape from the corner.
2) It is a passed pawn that would limit the mobility of the king.
Ironically, in an analysis, the recommended move for white is Bishop g3. I really can’t explain it.

BISHOP BEE TWOOOOOOO
"Oh hey, I got my first brilliant move-"
Levy: BRILLIANT MOVES ARE A LIE.
Idea for game 2 @ 8:33 : Bb2 is brilliant because the following moves are Bxf7+, unpinning your rook and allowing the queen to develop into the game, and because black lost the queen, white gets a massive advantage. Bb2 is developing the dark squared bishop and blocking an attack on the rook, so that black has no counterplay against Bxf7+ (Kh8 is bad because it lines up with the bishop on b2)
the reason that last move was a brilliant move was because if bishop takes rook then queen takes and if they let the area around THEIR rook stay the same then the rook is COMPLETELY TRAPPED therefore you win a bishop and then if they dont move their rook at all the knight is also COMPLETELY TRAPPED because it can't move since queen checks if it does and as long as u leave the queen there long enough and kick the bishop out you win a knight
6:36 - i really didn't misheard it. He actually said asshole instead of castles hahahhahahahhaha
8:05 I think the brilliancy there was that the bishop sees g7 at 8:56. If it wasn't on b2, then Re8 could be met by ...Nc7, Qxf7 Kh8, since Qxg7 mate is only possible because the bishop is on b2.
Bishop seeing g7 is a positional advantage and not a "out of the box" idea, so it def doesnt deserve the brilliant annotation
I don't know what that sequence of moves is, because for example there is not a knight that sees c7, but Bb2 also blocks Bd4 which threatens a rook.

6:45 Black wants to develop the rook by teleporting
Moral of the story: Brilliant moves are either mind-blowing moves or pity medals for 300-700s
9:31 I think its brilliant because if bishop takes knight,it opens up the king,and white has reinforcwments in the form of a queen and a rook,and you can even probably sack the rook for a bishop
For the brilliant move in the fourth game the olgorithm count Ba6 as a bishop sacrifice hence counting it as a brilliancy
21:35 not only it puts an important pawn on a safer square, it protects the knite.
I think it was supposed to be a Very good move (!) than briliand (!!)
I love the part when Levy said "it's bozo time" and bozoed all over the board
When I saw that I bozoed all over my room
moai🗿
I got a pawn protected by a horse forking two Queens then got mated
21:30 The plan is to not even take back when the bishop takes and just plant your queen on f6 and threaten checkmate. Granted it's mate in 9 so the 300's would never find it, but it is a forced checkmate rook sacrifice. The one and only response is to bring the bishop back to f3 after capturing the rook, then queen b2, knight g2, pawn takes knight check, king moves to e1, queen takes knight check, king takes pawn, queen takes rook. This series leaves white down on the exchange 5 points, two knights and a rook for rook and pawn, just to avoid mate. Of course its still mate in like 30 moves, but plenty of time for another blunder to swing the game all the way back.
I received over 20 brilliant moves before reaching 1000, just 6 months after i started playing. Half of these i didn't bother saving because i felt like i did not deserve it, although i do think it would be funny to somehow re-visit them one day.
I once got three brilliant moves in a game , two of which were pawn moves and the third was an unintentional rook sacrifice but the only move i really calculated thoroughly trapping the queen and winning it losing a bishop in the plan
Brilliant moves are the single greatest achievements in my life, dont do this to me
Yeah that explains why the "Game Review" computer thought it was better to save my knight in danger instead of saving my queen whose under attack
Theory #1
Maybe the algorithm evaluates moves based on the game as a whole. So, the bishop moving to A6 in that one example was deemed brilliant because it later lead the charge into White's collapse maybe?
Theory #2
It factors in your ELO, like Levy said.
Theory #3
The computer sees some of the craziest branches of theory that no normal human would play, so brilliance is seen from an omnipotent standpoint

"In this position, white played the move, ROO-"
*ad plays*
I once played a game against an opponent who played a "brilliant" move against me, the game was a hard struggle with low king safety for the both of us and a lot of loose pieces. I actually won that game and thought I would get a brilliant move after finding a beautiful tactical defense, where after my king was checked I sacced my knight to force the queen on an akward square and expose her to several tactics if he chose to take the it. For some reason that move ws considered a ok move by the engine at low depth, and tried to argue that my opponent was better after keeping the pin on the knight and trying to expand on the king side. After analysing the line, it appear that the plan actually went nowhere. What's more the engine said at much higher depth that my move was the only winnng one for me.
I am a long time physical board player who just started playing online in the last week. I usually play good with no blunders and few mistakes. I was wondering why I never get brilliant moves and this explains it really well.
solid moves doesn’t get brilliant sign.
Just yesterday had a brilliant I didn't quite understand in the position, it seems interesting now to look at this as how to evaluate on how it applies in the actual game, thanks Levy!
21:20: It is probably a brilliant move because you are losing material with the rook and bishop trade on a1, yet it is still the best move according to the computer.
Levy:i played 14 Brilliant Moves IN A ROW
Also Levy:Brilliant moves aren't brilliant
22:16 Their silence is deafening
i never get tired of your videos, and the blunders the players do, the brilliants... just keep up the good wok man
22:41 I think I've worked it out: opens the diagonal for the bishop.
Even better: it opens the diagonal for the queen. Imagine you had a queen on b2. White would be slaughtered. d3 allows you to play Qf6, attacking the bishop on f2. If the bishop moves or is defended, you play Qb2! and white is getting mated or losing everything. It's a nice move, actually.
I see what you mean. But black still was already winning. And the bishob would not help in mating
2:46 3:02 And he sacrificed... THE ROOOOOOK!

Levy is revealing his real identity of a greek god with that new cut 👀
My 300 elo friend once got a brilliant move for taking a pawn that was "guarded" by a knight (which was very obviously pinned to the queen) and yes the guy took with the knight and lost their queen
12:03 legendary mcdonald comment lol
The problem is people don't realize the concept of brilliant moves existed before the internet or stockfish even existed, and it's supposed to be evaluated by a human being based on how diffcult and/or beautiful the move actually is from a human perspective. Stockfish kind of ruins it by using some mathematical formula
First like, Gauri
I think stockfish likes stuff that significantly increases the number of possible moves that give you an advantage. ex: Attacking a piece pinned against another through its own sightline.
Another possibility is that the move somehow drastically improves the scene beyond stockfish's depth for that board, like if it thinks 8 moves ahead and your move becomes important on the 9th.
My guess for that last game is that the move was brilliant because it allows you to let your knight escape the corner without being captured?
Was that really your idea or are you just stealing the idea of the most liked comment. And guess what, black won't safe the knight. He is going for checkmate
I guess 22:04 is a brilliant move because it's enabling the night at the corner to escape safetly because the king cannot capture it while it is protecting by a pawn
22:00 I think it is a brilliant move because you save your knight in the corner, so instead of losing a night, you trade a rook for a bishop and save your knight 🗿
So you lose a knight (-3 points of material)
Or you trade bishop for rook and get a free knight (+1 points of material)
I actually think it's brilliant for positional reasons. After the white bishop takes the rook on a8, black has Qf6! attacking the bishop on f2 and threatening Qb2. Once the queen goes to b2, white is getting mated or losing everything. It's a move only made possible by d3, freeing the long diagonal. It's actually a great move, and much better than moving the rook.
You can save the knight anyway,without losing the rook
Basically, brilliant move is a casual blunder you make evry game with unexpected turnover of events that actually puts you in a winning position.
Ok, I understood why the last one is brilliant. Because this pawn can defend a knight from the king, and then participate in a checkmate. And even if white is taking a pawn -- your knight have enough time to escape.
Wait, you guys are getting 2 exclamation marks on a game reciew? I only get double question marks. I think my game is confused or something.
It's confused alright, on what the hell you were thinking

Me: I just had my first brilliant move!
Levi: Why brilliant moves are stupid
Once my friend trapped my queen. I spent 1 minute to sacrifie my knight and save my queen. I checked the analysis it calculated it as the best move. I SACRIFICED MY KNIGHT AS A 700. I didn't get a brilliant
Just because the player doesn't know it was a brilliant move doesn't mean it wasn't a brilliant move.
Levy’s basically the Dana White of chess
Got back to back brilliants in
Maybe in the bishop A6 "brilliant move", it was considered brilliant because it required an equally brilliant move to keep the game from steamrolling out of control.
Yo Gotham, I love your videos and you’ve helped me improve my chess game so much. Thank you. ❤❤

f4 hanging your king is probably still better for white
Since when has it been a good idea to hang your king?! XD
I did a game review and found my opponent did a brilliant move and that move was just moving the king from check and the move was the only move the opponent can play (how its brilliant 😅)
Sometimes not falling over and dying at the chess board is considered brilliant
Brilliant moves are moves where you sacrifice material while it is the best move according to the engine. Check the game analysis and also, the evaluation doesn't drop on that move.
The whole brilliant move algorithm is 1. It's the best move 2. It sacrifices material
‘You cannot stop Levy from making click bait titles with a horse.’
Sun Tsu, Art of War.
As someone who has had at least 10 brilliant moves, I can relate 😂
The last move was brilliant because it gets your knight out of the corner and the queen is no longer required to protect the pawn so you can take the bishop and pressure the pawn on the opposite side of the board...
Maybe, but is it worth losing the exchange over?
None of it is impressive if your opponent is just dead lost anyway.
