I absolutely agree! I haven't come across another chess channel where the teachings are so succint yet elaborative and incredibly full of insight of all sort of things. Danya has truely mastered the art of teaching. Best channel for chess, no question! Plus, he's such a positive, wholesome and uplifting personality that I always have a smile on my face for the full duration! :)
These speed runs are absolute gold. I’ve rewatched a few of the series. I just enjoy the extremely thorough explanation of everything. It’s no wonder the New York Times picked this guy up. Most underrated chess channel. His lack of clickbait makes continued steady growth very likely.
Something about Danya's videos (particularly the speedruns) that I find fascinating is the rewatchability. Like yourself, I must've rewatched all of them multiple times from start to finish, and every time I learn something new.
A. He doesn't "immediately" play it. He plays it 2 moves later. And only after giving a detailed explanation of why. Even if he does admit that it's a bit drastic. . B. You weren't listening every well because he says (around 14:52) that it will not stay boring forever and when the time comes for confrontation, the placement of pieces will matter greater. Funny enough I was going add a comment about how those that say boring position are no fun are the precisely the ones that make a mistake in the "boring" part and ran over fast. They get their wish on makes the game fun.. just not for them because they'll be their ass whipped.
Can't overstate how much I appreciate your content. Love the focus on what's salient about a position, and how the truth is formed and then emerges move-by-move.
"I think plans are overrated." (14:21) I agree! This past year, I reevaluated my chess and discovered that that one of my weaknesses is not realizing that there is nothing really to do. In the past, I often tried to make something happen when there was really nothing to do. It often happens where your opponent has a solid position where there really is no "plan" other than trying to improve your position. If your pieces are well-placed and harmonizing, a plan will eventually come.
9:02 you are definitely not talking too much. I found you and your channel from watching the speed chess championship stream and really enjoying your commentary. The videos I've watched so far are a goldmine of theory and the reasoning behind moves for someone like me. Gotta shout out Levy for getting me interested in chess streamers and RUclipsrs in the first place but I think I found my new favorite YT chess teacher.
Being playing the Vienna for the last weeks with not much success but very fun and wild games. Looking further to grasp some ideas out of the video! Thanks for the awesome and educational content Danya!
From looking at the thumbnail, it seems he's actually playing as black, AGAINST the Vienna. But GothamChess has a pretty good video on playing the Vienna as White, you should check that out.
If you play e4 try out the Scotch. At my level of 1500 it seems ridiculously strong. A lot of people don't even see the checkmate threat from the Scotch Gambit. 🤣
@@jonathanhenderson9422 he recommends the "KID setup" to beginners As someone who fell for his trap, he definitely lies about openings for the improving player
Insane how good these videos are. I'm very new to chess (2 months of intensive play, currently 1000 rapid), and you can explain these more advanced concepts with such amazing precision and clarity. Thank you!
I started playing in December 2019 but really started playing rapid in during March 2020 during lockdowns. I have tried a couple books (Soviet chess primer, Zurich 1952), but I find it harder to learn from books. These series are what primarily drive my rating increases. I’m now nearing 1900 in rapid
Love the extensive commentary, please don’t ever withhold your thought process cause you think your boring us, I love hearing every idea going through your head.
Just saw the notification and i already know this is gonna be an amazing game. Vienna gambit always brings a bunch of interesting tactical oportunities and vivid lively positions
Genuinely nuts that you are "a lot smaller than some of the bigger channels-" your content is more helpful and engaging than all of the bigger (chess) channels combined. Thank you, Sensei!
I just started learning chess and have been watching tons of videos to learn and get better. Your videos have by far been the most helpful. You are a terrific teacher. Watching your chess videos have allowed me to experience notable improvement in my chess game. Thanks so much. Keep up the excellent work.
Love your videos Daniel, everytime I've played with people and they say "wow you've gotten better!" it's because of you! I always say, oh i've been watching a lot of Daniel Naroditsky videos haha
i really like these speed runs where you analyze a lot with us gives me a chance to learn and understand how a master thinks during game of chess thanks Danya
I primarily watch on youtube, but I'm always sure to give you my twitch prime sub because your analysis, thoughts and advice is invaluable in helping me improve my own approach. I have dozens of pages of notes on tactics and positions from your commentary because your pedagogy really is unparalleled and I hope your channel continues to grow.
I think they all are good at different things and quite complement each other. For instance Levy, who I also follow, is great for beginners and intermediate players. He is more engaging and probably the best at getting new people into chess. Danya is more advanced and thorough; he's not for beginners. His explanations are amazing, but takes a lot for granted from the audience. As I said, both are great. Choosing "sides" (e.g., Levy or Danya, Agadmator vs. Danya, etc.) is. pointless and outright harmful. Many people like to do that, but it's wrong.
Levy is very entertaining in addition to also being instructive. But when it comes to purely instructive content (not that these videos aren't 'entertaining' in their own right) I feel like Daniel has no equal on YT, at least not from the channels I've checked out so far.
0:30 "This 4th speedrun has been about playing classical openings and taking care of fundamentals" *Danya having spent the entire speedrun playing the Smith-Morra and sacking pieces straight out of the opening*
Quality lesson. One hour video totally worth it. It's not about the subscribers count, it's all about the value you create with your video. BTW you got one more subscriber.
I started my journey to get better by watching you. But you are so good I could not keep up. Went to some other RUclipsrs and now I am ready for your instruction.
I am kinda new to your channel. But i definitly like yours the most. It is just the way you explain it, just a little better than anyone else but this makes the difference
PARDON THE CAPS BUT THIS WAS SO EXCITING AND BENEFICIAL TO YOUR AUDIENCE. Dan. YOU PUT IN EXTRAORDINARY PERSONAL EFFORT TO A LEVEL I DO NOT SEE ON OTHER CREATOR SITES TO BRING OUR MINDS INTO THE GAME IN A CLEAR AND DECISIVE LEVEL WITH UNIQUE PERSONAL SKILL AND WITH MORE EFFORT BY FAR FROM WHAT I EXPERIENCE AS THE NORM FROM OTHER CHESS CREATORS!. I'm EXTREMELY GRATEFUL FOR YOUR STYLE AND AM GOING TO BEGIN SHARING THESE OUTSTANDING MEATHEADS OF TEACHING TO FRIENDS AND OTHERS IN SUPPORT AND FURTHER GROWTH SO WELL DESERVED HERE. THANK YOU SIR!! .... MIKE.
I kinda feel proud as being ur subscriber at 1k ,2k I think (dunno if I first subbed with this account or another account)... Danya Sensei's teaching will reach out to millions through this channel in the future...
At 15:27 I wonder about Qc2 by White instead of Bc2. It sets up a Q+B battery, and inhibits the B-swap by Black, at least in the immediate term. It may also start to threaten invading with Ne5 because if ...Be5 de, ...Nmoves, the h7 pawn is en prise. Note the N cannot go to e4 because of the Q+B lineup rather than as in the game. Wonder if Bc2 was thinking in terms of a Turton manoeuvre, with the WQ backed up by WB targeting h7, but as per the game continuation it fails to set the WQ and WB that way round, because it lets Black exchange the Bishops in a way that favours the second player.
Another 2 good educational channels are Hanging Pawns, plenty of opening theory, strategy and game analisis; and ChessCoach Andras, IM who overall is very experienced as a coach and with good fudamental knowledge.
d5 is the clear best move vs the Vienna Gambit.. But as someone who plays it for white, d6 is also pretty hard to punish. Black is by no means lost if they play d6
Wow...i have seen you around for many years (i watch barthalomew when he was getting started)...but this was the first time I really "tuned in". You are my new fav. Incredibly articulate and informative. Love how you explain your ideas and thoughts. I have a few games on my channel, where I am trying to record my thoughts in a game(i figure its the easiest and ultimate way to annotate my games). For a guy who has been studying for 10 years, I am terrible :/ but I still really want to progress. I will chew on the rest of your content now. Thank you. 🙌 Curious...do you do private lessons?
i like how danya is genuinely excited about the game which in turn makes me want to watch, unlike another utuber that screams and gets artificially excited to get the noobs attention.
This will hit 1 million subs in next 2 years. Faster if he can market better may be using social media. But I have recommended it to everyone I talk to for sure. This is easily the best channel ever.
I found this channel by its placement as recommended by the RUclips algorithm, and it's truly a great analysis. Just what I'm looking for. QUESTION: Can anyone tell me where can I get a PGN string for this game? Thanks!
‘Do we have a plan? Not really I think plans are overrated’ - existentialist philosopher Daniel Naroditsky on the futility of prediction and illusion of control in a over-determined and indifferent universe
As a user who uses and wants to play Vienna opening only, I barely play f4 gambit. because after 3.f4 d5 it becomes really tricky position for white, and everybody knows that at my level (1600 ~ 1700), it's just too risky to play. so if you want to play Vienna, there's some moves after 1.e4 e5 2.Nc3 Nf6. 3.Nf3 (transposes to petrov defense), 3.g3 (Mieses Variation), 3.Bc5 (Stanley Variation, mostly transposes to Bishops opening) and even 3.d4, 3.a3, 3.h3 are better than 3.f4 gambit according to stockfish
Apart from like, highschool and junk, I basically restarted chess right at the beginning of the boom. Like I started playing at the start of december. I'm about 2k games in now, so yeah, it grabbed me pretty good I played Queen's gambit for about a month, switched to King's, and a couple of weeks ago, I switched to Vienna. It looked stronger, felt stronger, and by all accounts, is stronger, but I'm actually not really, like, viscerally clear on why it's so much stronger. Is it just because it's more flexible? It reduces black's options? I dunno, but I'm liking it anyways I'm 800, and that was a crap tonne of work just to get there. They reckon you're still a beginner till you break out of triple digits, so that's my goal for now. Just want to crack a thousand.
Your opponent is very very strong for a 1735 - he/she seems very underrated to me. Almost all his moves were in the top 3 for Stockfish until Nd2 towards the end. In particular c4 is a very challenging move I think, for a 1735-rated player to find. Stockfish had it as a number 1 move and your opponent found it. Well done him! Incredible.
Yall are so cringe, literally every video someones calling the opponent a cheater. I know youre 400 elo but devloping moves that dont blunder any pieces arent hard to find. The guy is 1750, he knows how to develop and not hang pieces. Youre 400 elo. Stop talking weirdo. Imagine thinking someone cheated just to lose the match. You literally put the game through an engine, you are literally projecting your engine use.
I honestly never thought the 150Th best player in the World would be the #1 chess teacher. I used to only watch Hikaru and the big names, but they simply don't teach like you. I just hope for your tournament success, and that one day you make Super GM.
i'm shamefully glad there's not millions of subs on this channel because this is really the secret sauce to get better at chess. You're the best teacher i've ever had in any field in my entire life. And because of that i wish you to be rewarded with as many subs as possible. Long live Danya our Sensei
I agree 💯%, he does deserve more subs though honestly
damn i never actually acknowledged how many subs danya has he def deserves more. A good thing about not having mills of subs is they’re real fans
Agreed!!
