Daniel Narodisky just earned himself his own famous chess quote without realising. it also applies to life. 4:00 "As long as you know that a piece has a clear path to improvement, it's okay for that piece to be temporarily inactive."
This has been my favourite chess series :) I’m pretty new to chess, rated like 400 at first. I got into it thanks to Pogchamps and some of Hikaru’s and Eric Rosen’s content. But somehow I was just losing games online. Kinda discouraging. Since watching this series I’ve firstly been immensely entertained, but secondly climbed to 800 rating. Just wanted to give a big thanks to Daniel!
Yesterday I played with my brother and he was totally amazed by how much I improved in the last two months. I appreciate all the effort that you put in your videos.
This game was so beautiful! In the opening white seemed to have a big center and slowly but surely Danya managed to undermine it and ended up with a massive attack of the central pawns! Thank you ever so much for your lessons and beautiful chess Danya!
Hey Danya - Love the series. Would it be possible to do one game where you take away the accessibility factor and just explain everything you’re thinking? In other words one game geared towards 2000+ players.
Hey, Danya! In case you read this, thank you so so so much for everything you've done for chess. It's been amazing to watch, and every piece of content you've posted or streamed has been a treasure trove of passion and knowledge. As a very modest request, should you choose to create additional speed runs, would you consider playing mainstream openings more often? For no other reason than those will be positions that most of your significantly lower rated viewers (myself included) would be familiar with and learning the ideas behind more common opening theory would be useful. Of course, I along with the rest of your audience will continue to enjoy and appreciate all your work with immense gratitude no matter what you choose to produce. Thanks again! Looking forward to whatever comes next.
This really was a masterful conversion. A buddy of mine recommended this channel a while back and I've loved every minute of it. These speed runs are a public service. Thank you Danya 😁
The coordination for the pawn push is a thing of beauty. It's looks basic but for so many pieces to remain perfectly coordinated even when marching is crazy.
Danya, is there anyway you can normalize that volume it's SO omega low. When an ad comes on I about jump outa my chair it's so loud, I have to peg my volume just to hear ya my guy
For real it's insanely low. I watch on my phone without headphones and his videos need to be on max volume and of course ads are loud enough for everybody to hear. Idk if he ever reads comments but i really hope he fixes this
Very surprising observation at around 19:36! 🤯 Being a beginner I would have never suspected that such opening errors still happen at such a high rating. Good to know.
Great game again. I don't know what you're planning after the Speedrun but I'd love to see more games around this sort of level, they're so instructive. Maybe even at a longer time frame so you can fully explain all your reasoning behind each move/plan. Regardless, thanks so much for all the amazing content.
danya youre kinda like the chris fix of the chess world. down to earth, resourceful, patient, common sensical and funny. thanks for all your work and congrats on beating fabi! if you can beat fabi maybe i can beat super GM max deutche
You did not go over what queen e1 and the attack. You said it was scary, but didn't go over the best line and idea for white. Thank you Sir, Daniel, you are one of the best teachers !
Beautiful play as always. I definitely want to start spending more time learning some of these interesting off beat openings but I think I should learn the openings I know a bit more first.
I was 1700 on lichess. Enjoying my life, playing for tricks and tactics, winning only 8% of my games on time. Watched all your videos and became a positional god. Playing for ruined pawn structures, calm positional advantages etc. Now im 1200, ty.
Is it possible to let viewer play first half of game and you play second half? Would be great to see a gm convert positions that arise from lower rated players
Day 52 of saying you're the man Danya. Thank you for the excellent content. The sicilian is my favorite by far to study so to watch you explain the ins and outs is so enlightening. You're a master level teacher, and I loved your win against Caruana. You totally are deserving of your recognition and I'm delighted to watch you grow further every day.
Hi Daniel, thank you for the great videos, i really love to watch them. I was wondering why did you skip uploading your games from rating 1940 until app. 2090? I would like to see those games as well. All the best
Oh my goodness this guy is up 2 ponds and he used those exact 2 ponds to slowly push up the board, make white sac a knight and still can’t stop the promotion. That’s so skilled
This turned out a really nice gambit for white. I am 2000 rated as well and I doubt that I would have held this. White at least had great winning chances.
I think this sort of content is more geared towards higher level, serious players or players that are looking to get better. Gotham's content is more entertaining but loses its educational portion around ~1800. Just my take.

thats what I tell myself lying here on my couch
Is that like your excuse to be lazy lol
The Chess community has been so vastly enriched by your lessons. I wish I could shake your hand and thank you in person for all you've done for us.
Agreed! He has an obvious talent and passion for teaching chess, which is something we all can appreciate :) luv u danya
Congrats again on the W against Caruana. Best of luck going forward, we believe in you.

Man I’ll miss this speedrun. Can’t wait to see what you do next!
Imagine if he created more chess videos
@@stevenmcculloch5727 - I heard he's going to start doing training in monopoly and connect 4. Not sure if it's true or not
@@self-righteousideologue9398 big if true
Is he going to stop the Speedrun :( ?
He must do another speed run

This is the first video of yours I'd watched, damn you explained exceptionally well!
20:50 my question exactly! Great explanation. Thank you!

Hey Daniel, I really enjoy your chess videos. Super informtitive and delivered in a awesome way. Keep it up!

Connected, protected, passed, central pawns OP
Don't forget to lower your volume after watching this video.
Damnnnn Daniel. You lookin’ freshhhhh
Damn gurll

These videos are SO instructive. Thank you!
He always makes it look so easy, every move makes sense. Amazing
He's a gm after all.

love your vids, entertaining and educational!
i love learning from your videos 💯💯

Lol the guy that beat magnus????
Smoothly done!
Petition for Daniel to start another speed run straight after this one!
one of the best speedruns i’ve watched
Love the Hannold reference. Free Solo all the way!
Me watching chess videos: ah yes, classical queen sacrafice
Me playing: loses 10 times in a row and rages

Nice game, wish you had a good day Daniel
I just saw agadmator video on you defeating fabi.
Just wanted to say congratz and I hope you the best.
'Once you're pushing... PUSH' - danya
ALL KILLER, NO FILLER - Thanks Danya.
"Once you're pushing, push" . With this advice, I shall be gm
Is it possible to let viewer play first half of game and you play second half? Would be great to see a gm convert positions that arise from lower rated players
definitely gonna try that opening. thx a lot
My goals in life:
- conquer rome
- climb mount everest
- distribute the covid vaccine
- free solo el capitan
LOL
“Once you’re pushing, push” 💁🏻♂️ as one ☝️ wise man said. Lol

danya you have to include the 0:00 timestamp in the description so it shows up on the progress bar
Hi Daniel, thank you for the great videos, i really love to watch them. I was wondering why did you skip uploading your games from rating 1940 until app. 2090? I would like to see those games as well. All the best
anyone else think Qe3 woulda beena better play at 16:50 to force the queen trade faster and ultimately checkmate?
Wow I never heard of this alekhine variant, I really really like it.
Thank you king danya!
Daniel looking sharp in that shirt 💯
Finally a Sicilian!
This is the 7th sicilian defense video 😆👏👏
Amazing pawn push
Beautiful!
Nice Alex Honnold reference 😉
What is the nice move that you mention if knight go to c5?
the audio was too low today😞😞
Oh my goodness this guy is up 2 ponds and he used those exact 2 ponds to slowly push up the board, make white sac a knight and still can’t stop the promotion.
That’s so skilled
ponds
@@Intrinsion ponds
Danya's next speed run account should be DaaaaamnGuuurl
Danya's background always changes lol
Knights are good at smoking
Nice example of conversion.
16:38 почему тут тебе не шах?
Is the nimzo sic. Better than alelkhine?
We must come from the same part of town
Is my sound system broken or the volume is too low?
How to see those orange lines
hey Danya you misspelt Nimzowitsch in the title
Super Awesome
Daniel, please play the Taimanov Sicilian. Huge fan from Brazil !!!
I think I might re-watch this speedrun if Danya doesn't start another one immediately after this one
the audio is too low
This turned out a really nice gambit for white.
I am 2000 rated as well and I doubt that I would have held this. White at least had great winning chances.
I guess you could say you Nimz that in the bud 😆
Passed pawns must be pushed! 🙂
My life goal (in chess) is to reach 2000 in rapid. But damn these players are really good tho.
Can u teach us sicilan taimanov next time?
I would love to see a Ruy Lopez!
Do a video analyzing your game against caruana
1 game man blounder 2 pawns and left the centar
good stuff, but fix the volume pls
Why is Jake Gyllenhaal teaching me chess
letttsss goooooo
Lately there has been a big gap in rating between vids. I wonder if there were to many cheaters :/
Did anyone notice that Nimzowitsch was spelled wrong? :>
You write Ņimcovičs if you're a real nerd
209k subscribers just pisses me off. There's no reason why gotham should have a million more subscribers. Daniel is the best teacher on here by far.
Right? Danya deserves twice as many subs as Gotham, if not more
exactly
More people go to youtube for entertaining content than educational content. That's just the way it is
@Francisco L Gotham is epic player tho
I think this sort of content is more geared towards higher level, serious players or players that are looking to get better. Gotham's content is more entertaining but loses its educational portion around ~1800. Just my take.
That game where Fabby lost I reckon it was trick photography, no way u beat a pro man…..no way.
That game was a set up bro. Pre arranged for u to win……..there’s no fooling me brother. I’m on to u!!!!
LOW MIC VOLUME DANYAA
FREE SOLO!
Russian school of chess
Ur pretending to think and work things out lol,,,,funny bro, since this was a pre arranged game????? Y do u do this bro.
I haven't watched the whole series, has he been in a much worse/losing position at any point in this speedrun so far?
In one game he mouse slipped and blundered a piece. I think it was one of the Vienna gambit videos of the speedrun
