Pin of shame
I'm so early that the pinned comment has no replies yet and only 1 like. Also, how the fuck is it already pinned when it was posted 45 seconds ago?
Pin of dumbassery
now people give hate just to get pinned.
You are right bro
Wow! Great analysis of the game, I love the way you pronounce "Rey Enigma" haha really cool ♥♟See you soon in Spain or NY, who knows... 👀
I wish you have the chance to fight magnus in the future!
Yoooooo
un crack el rey enigma
Woah

First he plays against a 5 year old, now against a mystery man. Karpov's enemies have become quite interesting over the years.
I bet John Cena is next up
@@catcat4697 Hang on, how are they going to be sure Karpov's opponent shows up if they can't see him?

The fact it was Karpov playing in the grand finals makes it perfect. The final boss of chess strikes again
ye - ruclips.net/video/MQR7-ZZdR0k/видео.html
karpov is an absolute meme lord. he comes in like a dark souls boss at any event AND will mess you up.
(too bad this one's a draw)
Imagine if rey cries too lmao
Yeah, someone needs to do another edit for this one.
Yep. When I watched this I somehow got the impression that Karpov didn't really want to mate him in the end in order not to spoil the party... Nice guy. (That's something Kasparov would never do.)
I love how Anatoly Karpov is always willing to be the surprise final boss for all these TV chess players.
Karpov is the Final Boss.
Vishy Anand and Magnus Carlsen are DLC bosses.
AlphaZero is a secret boss that can't be beaten and the devs put it there to troll people.
Where’s Kasparov then? He might be the godly narrator in the background😂
@@apexpredator36 Kasparov is in the prequel :P
I can beat them all
@@jabloko992 Isn't Stockfish stronger then Alphazero
He is Misha Osipov in disguise and grown up. This was his redemption arc.
ruclips.net/video/MQR7-ZZdR0k/видео.html
at long last, he avenged his father
Are you saying the mishaverse exist?
It is not Misha. Misha doesn't accept draws from Karpov!
His name is Rey David Engifo
When Karpov made that Knight move, I saw him twitch a little; and at that moment he knew it was going to be okay.
Underrated comment. Real ones know
@@danielalanine7379 Max Deutsch lmao
😅
Fucking Max Deutsch lol.
legendary comment
Karpov's understanding of the game is just incredible. He may not be one of the top players currently anymore, but he's very clearly one of the legends of the game
No shit Sherlock
bro, he is the man.
Magnus, Kasparov and Fischer are the only 3 dudes who can be called bigger than him
One of the best ever when in his prime.
@@Terra157 if you are going by the statistics and objective strength longevity performance etc...kasparov is first ...karpov 2nd and carlsen 3rd ...Fischer 4th
@@Terra157 not going to put Kasparov over Karpov.
Scaring people with surprise Karpov is peak chess trolling move
Its Max Deutsch, he spent a month learning Spanish after his intense battle against Magnus.

Oh My God maybe it's really him

The best comment I actually laughed out loud
I really laugh out loud for this comment. Hahaha
I see a lot of ppl trashing on rey enigma for this game, but time management is part of the competition and karpov is karpov, I'd like to see the critics hold up as well as he did against karpov. Amazing match.
agreed, though for what its worth i have absolute faith karpov could beat him in any format other than blitz, but to even survive aginst karpov is a win in my book
And also the guy identity is a stake, remeber this guy is making a living out of his youtube and social media, and it would not be so Enigma if we know who he is so a lot was at stake for him. Imagine yourselve defending against Karpov for your job.
ruclips.net/video/MQR7-ZZdR0k/видео.html
@@grishnak6162 Yeah, this is just a career ending move if he loses.
the rules for the match before it began was explicit that "the game must be played to its conclusion no matter what" so he couldnt resign
Imagine if it was Eric Rosen and he couldn't use his signature queen stalemate trap because then everyone would know it was him
rey enigma has a video in which he explains he had to change his entire repertoire of openings so that he could commit to being anonymous.
oh no my identity
@@kala_asi LMAO
I just love Karpov. Simplicity, Humility, No intimidation.....Just love him
Bro watch Levy’s vid on him vs Korchnoi for some legendary Karpov content
he may not be intimidating now but back in the golden days of his career he was very supported and backed by the soviet union and that was a bit scary to play against 😂 look what they did to korchnoi (sorry for wrong spelling) in order to put young karpov on the game, literally
Karpov is pretty old in chess terms now, he’ll miss some tactics but he’s still the positional master. People sometimes overlook that if Kasparov was never in the picture then Karpov would be the undisputed number 1 for several decades
If I am the only chess player in the world. I would be the best chess player in the world.
@@jake8217 And?
@@jake8217 You atleast need two players to play chess.
@@GeorgeDCowley he is showing how shitty the commenters analogy about karpov being the undisputed no.1 if kasparov aint existing.
@@tonpariston5093 he just said that the only player able to beat him in decades was kasparov. ain't nothing about his analogy bad
Despite some slight time mis-management here, Anatoly Karpov showed his understanding of the position once again.. Considering he's 70 already, I think he played very well, which is a feat by itself. The only other players, that could do the same (and did) and that I can think of, were Vasily Smyslov and Viktor Korchnoi.
I can't help but admire the great Anatoly Karpov and his long-lasting level of mastery of chess.
But also thumbs up for the 'enigmatic' opponent, who did not play too badly at all.

Rey Enigma is just Ruy Lopez's reincarnation
Or maybe he’s a resurrected Ruy Lopez himself?
He's obviously Rey Lopez.
Just for those who are confused/offended: before even revealing that Karpov was gonna be the opponent, the host Levy mentioned (Risto Mejide) agreed with Rey Enigma to play the game until the very end, and that's why he didn't resign before.
I was really excited to see you were covering this game Levy, from your Spanish community: ¡gracias!
“It’s never too late to reinvent yourself”
That was it. Thanks Gotham. That was the motivation I needed, seriously. Going back to finish my Engineering degree. Wish me luck ✊🏼
I certainly will, all the best
Good luck!

About chess culture in Spain: The first recorded chess game with modern rules took place in Valencia, Spain, in the 15th century.
8:11 Levy hitting real close to home.
Didn't know that Irene sukandar vs Dewa kipas was the most viewed chess game before this match 🤔 . The numbers are insane . Also playing 84 moves in a 3 minute blitz game over the board is truly unbelievable .
ruclips.net/video/MQR7-ZZdR0k/видео.html
Bro, as a spanish speaker, I'm amazed at how well you roll your Rs. You really make an effort to correctly pronounce the players' names no matter where they're from. Legend!
He’s Russian so he knows how to roll Rs.
His first language is actually Russian, not English, and Russian uses the same Rs as Spanish.

Tri Flomastera it wouldnt say they are the same, but they are very similar.
@@marte1081 Russian P is identical to Spanish ere, but not to erre. it's an alveolar tap, rather than an alveolar "trill."
Rey Enigma went to the boss room and actually just managed to dodge everything only.
plot twist: Rey Enigma is actually Magnus Carlsen's long lost brother. Magsen Carlnus
He's spanish, so a more fitting name would be Carlos Magsen
@@randomnoob2031 Carlos Magnussen makes a comeback.
I'm pretty sure it's actually his cousin, Cagnus Marlsen.
Magnum Carlos, long lost son of Garry Chess
Magnus Carlos, Magnus' long-lost Spanish twin.
One thing is sure, Anatomy Karpov is still the final boss
I just had to watch the episode and the way Enigma reacted when they said Karpov’s name you could see the “OH MY GOD!! IS THIS FOR REAL!!?!” Reaction
Levy, you made this as exciting as any NFL, ESPN, etc. recap. Awesome job!
ruclips.net/video/MQR7-ZZdR0k/видео.html
Karpov is still the boss. Absolutely love his passion for the game. Easily in my top 10 players of all time, maybe even top 5 :)
agreed! his style is magnificent. the endgame positions with all pieces on dark squares, countering the light square bishop that was big in the opening is just so badass chess.
Interesting fact it was Spain that evolved the movement of the queen to be the most powerful piece in chess, it came to Spain from the arab caliphate around the 13th century but at that time the wazir (minster) or queens movement was less than a bishop.
2:20 I get the feeling that every pawn structure can arise out of a Caro-Kann...
"There are no pawns on the board in this position, kind of like an extreme exchange caro kann..."
Gotham, love your enthusiasm man. Im now so interested in Chess. I started seeing Rey Enigma and he is so easy going and patient, but now I see your channel and you are as good as he is promoting Chess for everyone.
Best regards! Thumb up for the video and I'm going to subscribe
Levy, it's just fascinating for me how you can continue to find new content material on Chess..
Couldn't believe that this amount of creative content could be made on a (what i thought of) as relatively limited subject.
Keep going man.
I love that you're covering this game. I saw it yesterday and thought to myself "man It would be awesome if Levy covered this game, but it'll never happen". Guess I was wrong lol. Thank you for your great content as always. The match between Rey Enigma and Karpov was a beautiful moment.
I'm Spanish, and this is amazing. Rey Enigma in Gotham's channel. Amazing
I’m also Spanish, do you know who Rey Enigma is?

Wow…amazing game and amazing job by you of giving us a blow by blow, a jugada por jugada, “reenactment” of the game between Karpov and Enigma, I happen to be a fan and a subscriber of both your RUclips channel as well as as Rey Enigma’s channel, I really enjoy both his and your “energy and enthusiasm” for the game, as well of how you and Enigma, explain the game in a way that a “casual play at lunch time at work with my friends and online with people around my ranking” can follow and understand. Thank you for what you now do. Watching your channel made start playing again this game I love but had not played for many years. I’m also now teaching the game to my little grandson so that we’ll also have that connection, which is pretty cool. Thanks again.
🤔🇨🇺🇺🇸
Karpov really is a dark souls boss
The enthusiasm in which you present chess is one of the main reason I watch your channel! It’s not over the top and it just comes across as fun and enjoyment! Thanks!

You missed the midgame clock tension, it was so epic. I would also love it if you had an eval bar on-screen. Thanks for the great video!
I love the passion Gotham put in his commentary like a great futbol narrador. Love the natural and well pronunciation on the “R”. His RUclips channel is my first e-interaction every morning with a cup of coffe. Keep up the great work !

I've grown to love Karpov more as the years go by , just a great ambassador of chess and a quality human being.
the fact there were so many tactics on the board had me on the edge of my seat waiting to see if it was missed or not
Hey, im a new subscriber. I just started playing chess a few weeks ago. Your videos have helped me a ton on learning the game, and getting better. I loved your analysis on the Chess Championships, i looked forward to the uploads.
Waoo veo gotamchess desde 6 meses y de paso mejoraba mi ingles pero ver a rey enigma convertirse de poco a poco en un creador de contenido de ajedrez es muy emocionante felicidades rey enigma
Hi levy, Just leaving a comment to boost the algorithm :).
The show was incredible no wonder it was the most viewed chess match.
Also, It's true that rey enigma is doing a great job to the chess comunity, I hope you both will be in two years the most viewed chess youtubers.
Good luck and good vibes.
Hey I just want to thank you for all the amazing content you make. I was terrible at chess months ago I believe I was right around 700-800 but, watching you play and how you explain what you are doing and what you could do has really helped me understand the game. I rate now just under 1200. I'm no GM but, I am proud that I have come this far and hope to get better! Thank you!
wow my heart was pounding in the final part awesome game of chess and hope for more in the future
8:25 really needed to hear this right now, thanks.
As some points, like at Ra2 - Karpov was smiling as if he has seen a win but didn't want to crush Rey right away.
Also at Qg3-Kf4; Rf3 - Karpov was smiling as if "This was your chance".
Around the Karpov's King movement in the end game they started to play very fast, but at the clock Karpov had around 40 seconds, and Rey had around 20 seconds. There is no way Karpov would lose on time with such an advantage.
It was all either staged, or heavily edited for the show.
Well, mr. Karpov is older, he's 70, it's more difficult for him to have such reaction and speed. However his age makes his current level and understanding of the game even more impressive and inspiring.
Thanks from Spain for covering this! Rey Enigma is doing great things for chess in our country and his presence in Got Talent was awesome!!
OMG Levy you are the best I was looking for the game yesterday and couldnt find it
This is awesome! Making chess exciting and brining in a new audience. Thanks to Rey and Karpov!
107th day of translating Levy's titles into Neapolitan: "A partit e scacc chiù guardat e semp"
Levy my uni has this mandatory rural internship so now I'm living in a village for a week and like I'm trying to cope and everyday I watch your vids and basically watching this before bed here is making me feel tons better thanks!
Great commentary man this was so tense, thank you
Since it’s a draw, Enigma should reveal half of himself, I vote bottom half so we have something to work with for my and everyone else’s Karpov x Enigma fanfictions
- ruclips.net/video/MQR7-ZZdR0k/видео.html
you think he's top half human bottom half fish? we lost our opportunity to find out... sad
excuse me what
It is reference to "stockfish"
Might be wheels... might be a flipper
This is possibly an interesting example of crystal v fluid intelligence. Karpov's time trouble, like Kasparov in a recent tournament, suggests the loss of fluid intelligence, or processing speed to access and execute the knowledge. However, each of them has more crystal intelligence in chess, or memory, than 0.000...1% of any opponents they might face. Crystal intelligence does fade, like a worn memory card over time. At least, that is the way I remember it. Interesting game. Of course, GM Karpov, is a gentleman and may just be playing along.
Thanks for posting! Love that chess is picking up again. I hope it keeps up.
Bro this my favorite chess channel. You have made the chess game so much more fascinating to me. Definitely the best streamer/commentator of all that I've seen. You for your content my dude
Man, Karpov and tv are a great duo
Just watched the original clip and Rey Enigma losing their mind over hearing its Karpov is just fantastic.
I love your vids man!
Keep up the good work!
Levy, you are the best ambassador for a game that most people are intimidated by. You humanize as you teach and analyze and you show how much fun it can be. Thanks, man.
We watched on TV and was really exciting...
Thanks for the rediffusion of the act... Helps to promote the chess.
Thanks for that

Once again you gave us great analysis of an exciting game. You’re so entertaining as you teach us Levy. I hope you have a wonderful day!
Probably the best video yet, really exciting commentary, loved it
Brilliant commentary. I now saw the "End of chess video" and this one. Both were very nice commented. I also connect to my son through chess. Very nice. You got yourself another subscription. Thank you.
The reflection of Levy's hair in the golden youtube play button behind him is super distracting. ... But his enthusiasm kept drawing me back in - superb video!
"You're going to beat Magnus in that position"
Levy, I cannot beat Magnus up a queen, let alone up a bishop.
Hope you come to Spain! would love to see you here, you have a ton of fans here! :))
someone on TV: I'm good at chess.
Karpov: How good?
Anatoly Karpov! *boss music*

This makes me really happy as a Spanish chess player
Karpov de verdad es como un jefe final de Dark Souls
Man Levy's enthusiasm in this video is just heartwarming to see
@Jasper Percabeth How tf is chess a drowning ship? It's never been this popular, we just had the WCC, the SCC (Ding-Hikaru match was the most exciting thing I've seen all year), the candidates tournament, Norway chess, World cup, Grand Prix, and in a week we'll have the World rapid and blitz championships, along with many more exciting online tournaments (MC tour) and the GCT. What's your point exactly?
Videos like this remind me why I love the chess community so much. Thank you For this video!
Got to love Karpov. He still goes for a queen's Indian defence setup
Karpov was always superior to Kasparov at Middlegames and Endgames. Kasparov was better at opennings. I don't know why people don't consider Karpov the GOAT when he is the most achieved player in the history of chess(160+ times 1st in tournaments).
I am pretty sure 2013 and 2014 WC and anand's other WCs in india got very high viewership . it was on freetv /DD sports in india so lot of people watched it . there was lot of hype about the match in chennai
did the recent wc match air on Indian tv 🥴
