HYPING UP CHESS IVE WAITED SO LONG I LOVE NL CHESS. LETS GOOO Edit: Also dont force urself to play for us, im glad to see it back but id rather see it on occasion than a forced burnout never to be seen again D:
I don't think he's forcing himself to do it, I think he loves it but sometimes gets frustrated with its mental toll and needs a break. Which is exactly my experience playing chess too.
well, new chess is the only thing that got me back watching him lately and i’ll stop watching when this spat of chess stops, so i’m down for as much of it as he’s willing to provide
Last time I saw NL play chess I was 900, now I'm 1400 and I attribute that to the fact that I was able to focus on my own chess playing rather than pogging out of my gourd at Egg chess content. I am now ready to see my rating fall
I took a 3 month break from chess, haven't watched any videos, haven't been watching the candidates, but when I saw you were playing again I had to tune in and now I have the itch again.
I used to play a good amount of chess as a child, stopped for years and have now returned. I watched some of your old chess content because you are enjoyable to watch and surprisingly good at chess! Well, feels like magic, you returning to chess a week after my hiatus has ended :)
I’m a similar rating to NL, slightly lower, I also don’t know much opening theory. I know the general set ups and ideas of the positions of the openings I play but don’t memorize lines. As long as you avoid the super sharp openings where there’s some wild line you need to know theory to not lose in, you’re totally fine at that level
Anyways, um... I bought a whole bunch of shungite rocks, do you know what shungite is? Anybody know what shungite is? No, not Suge Knight, I think he's locked up in prison. I'm talkin' shungite. Anyways, it's a two billion year-old like, rock stone that protects against unwanted frequencies that may be traveling in the air. That's my story, I bought a whole bunch of stuff. Put 'em around la casa. Little pyramids, stuff like that.
I think you might be misinformed about what Magnus said. He said it’s unlikely that he will play the match again if Alireza didn’t win the candidates. A lot of people didn’t want Nepo to win because of how the last match went and they thought it was unlikely for him to play because he already beat him, but I don’t think him not playing has anything to do with any of the other players or how that last match went. It was about 6 months ago and he hasn’t really spoken about it since. Hopefully he has changed his mind about it
I first started playing chess after watching NL's videos. I liked them more when I had a low elo and I couldn't see all the mistakes he was constantly making. That last game was a lot, but it was also entertaining to watch
That first game. How are my opponents so much better at 100 less ELO? He misses the king rook fork and the opponent helpfully gives him the queen/king fork instead.
I adore the chess content renaissance, however brief it may be!
He will do 10,000 episodes Copium
What renaissance? People always play chess weirdo
@@kaleidoscope942 they meant nl specifically weirdo
@@sanyokS1I’m sure that you know what they meant since you’re the one who made the comment
@@kaleidoscope942 what
I feel like season 2 of chess is gonna be amazing. Can't wait for more episodes
you should see how they buffed the knights
The king of spending a full minute on every move in the opening is back!

NL coming back SWINGING with the chess content
Double entendre?
That first game was INSANE ! how come 1400s let NL fork their queen and the 1400s i play know the first 35 moves of the grenfeld variation
him get not punished but rewarded for not seeing the first fork is the most infuriating thing i've seen
DUDE I WAS SCREAMING
3:22 "I feel like a damn genius" as he misses the hanging king-rook fork
Isaac’s back! And now Chess!? Blessed timeline.
The two have never been seen together in the same room!
“There might not be an episode every day or every other day” posts two chess videos in four hours
LET'S GO! I've been missing chess so bad, genuinely one of my favourite things NL's done
I really hope chat doesn't backseat him into hating chess again and just enjoys the genius of 1500 level chess
Last time I saw NL play chess I was 900, now I'm 1400 and I attribute that to the fact that I was able to focus on my own chess playing rather than pogging out of my gourd at Egg chess content. I am now ready to see my rating fall
The pog rains pour for another day,
The lovely chess video keeps notions of
demonic diablo immortal gaming
at bay
That last checkmate from black was some pretty slick stuff
I took a 3 month break from chess, haven't watched any videos, haven't been watching the candidates, but when I saw you were playing again I had to tune in and now I have the itch again.
seeing a chess renaissance is what brought me back to your channel after not watching for almost 4 years. Genuinely exciting to have it back!
i screamed with joy when i saw this new chess content
I began to shake and pee uncontrollably from excitement, truly a spiritual experience.
well please stop it, i've got a headache
Unbelievable amount of chess content, hope it sticks around
Absolutely loving the chess content! Hype!
NL is one of the chess players of all time
ngl i kinda like the scuffed screen regions it gives the video that certain "i dont know what"
9 minutes in and the insane sub 500 elo back seating is almost nostalgic
I used to play a good amount of chess as a child, stopped for years and have now returned. I watched some of your old chess content because you are enjoyable to watch and surprisingly good at chess! Well, feels like magic, you returning to chess a week after my hiatus has ended :)
YOOOO!!!!!!!! I’ve watched the entire backlog of chess!!! Stoked for new content!!!
10:30 so pogged for more NL menu content, you just don't see this with other RUclipsrs
Was almost done w the whole chess playlist so you started back up at the perfect time!!
what a good video holy moly, so many ups so many downs. Cinema could never
YOOOO!!!! The quarantine classic! This is a hit of nostalgia, damn.
"I'm not like other chess players"
proceeds to explain every single chessplayer in his rating range.
Loving this content as another 1400 marty it gives me motivation to keep up with NL’s rating 🙌
I'm enjoying imagining levy's reaction to the fianchettoed knight
I missed chess from NL so much, ive gone from 900 to 1200 while it was on hiatus
The knight fork at 3:05 is my favorite move and I'm so salty he missed it
For the love of God let this do well in the algorithm so NL makes more.
7:42 sudden Nadia Vulvokov bit
Glad to see you back at chess
Love the series
I’m a similar rating to NL, slightly lower, I also don’t know much opening theory. I know the general set ups and ideas of the positions of the openings I play but don’t memorize lines. As long as you avoid the super sharp openings where there’s some wild line you need to know theory to not lose in, you’re totally fine at that level
i love that chess is back
That tournament sounds like a chess "Money in the bank" match and would be much better if commentated like it.
two chess videos in one day, we're eating good tonight lads
Anyways, um... I bought a whole bunch of shungite rocks, do you know what shungite is? Anybody know what shungite is? No, not Suge Knight, I think he's locked up in prison. I'm talkin' shungite.

Where the heck does NL find 1300s like that..
18:57 “are ya winning son?”
Let’s go, part 2 out already? You need to cool it with these chess vids NL
Me playing chess: Life is pain, why are high 1200s so good?
NL playing chess: Knight fork go brr
Love chess from you man
Thank you for 2nd video today!
I got to know you because of your chess videos, followed your content ever since
damn, that checkmate at the end was brutal. eggs gotta roll with the punches though
Man’s literally forfeited two pawns and gave up a fork all in one move
Love the chess content! Keep it coming
3:18 *HE CAN'T KEEP GETTING AWAY WITH IT*
WE BACK BABY
Finally more Chess!
If chess wasn't a Pog game they wouldn't have played it for them thousand years
With all that extra space on the sides, can we get a 300% enbiggening to NL's webcam please and thank you
That's a perfectly cromulent request
@@sb_dunk Thanks for not being iconoclastic about the request good sir 👍
Two episodes in one day??? What is this madness?
And lo, the pogs burst forth from my gourd and fell upon my fellow subscribers
Doin it and doin it and doin it well
Twice in one day!!? We're gonna be drowning in poggg!
The candidates forgot someone Pog
Seeing the checkmate killed 2% of my brain cells
I hope the chess contant continues for a long time
Oh on God? Chess? On the Nazarene?
Dang, NL missed the candidates. Hope he makes the next one in two years!
I didnt know I needed this.
I found you through your chess content and I’m here for it again 🙌🙌
3:20
"KNIGHT C2!!!"
A nice zugzwang he found in the end
HURRAH! The day has come!
Loving the chess content pls more
NL voice: "what the hell?!"
I first started playing chess after watching NL's videos. I liked them more when I had a low elo and I couldn't see all the mistakes he was constantly making. That last game was a lot, but it was also entertaining to watch
oh fuck yeah we're back
The chess is fire 🔥 and now that I am not terrible at chess I even understand what he's doing.
The prodigal son returns
I am leaving a comment in order to keep this serie alive.
Fun fact the chess website gave NL his diamond subscription back shortly after this and I don’t think he even noticed.
love the chess content!
Ah yes a fork. take the fork. TAKE THE FORK
?????????? HOW DID YOU GET A BETTER FORK OUT OF THIS
Fellas, find a girl that looks at you the same way NL looks at chat in his RUclips thumbnails.
CHESS! LETS GOOO. POGGED out of my damn GOURD rn
Broooo commenting for the algorithm. I never thought I'd see chess again here
More chess baby
The awaited return!!!!!
I demand more.
Chess in 2022?
Yeah okay, next thing you know you'll be putting down a SM64 PB.
That first game. How are my opponents so much better at 100 less ELO? He misses the king rook fork and the opponent helpfully gives him the queen/king fork instead.
He could have forced a rook trade in that second game
Chess content! I love NL chess content!
He's back!!!
Glad to see chess
YESSS ITS BACK
oh fuck yeah
Just stretch the board for widescreen.
doesnt e5 hang his knight bc queen takes w check then picks up his knight?
it loses two pawns but it doesn't lose the knight because either the knight can block, or Qe7 pins the queen and forces a trade
@@Richard-pz2bz tru tru
oh. just watched 5 more seconds of the video lmao 😅
Jesus was here
