learned it on chess dojo and had a lot of success

He's still the GOAT despite dropping his fide rating. Besides great presentation as usual Chessdawg!

Thank you! Great explanations!

Dont understand Queen c5 after exanging black Bishop

[@chessdawg]

I am not sure either, although black is running out of useful moves at that point. If I had to guess it was to avoid the queen being hit by Rb7 after the b4 knight gets kicked away by a3. But it isn't a good move.

Excellent and concise commentary. I play the French but thankfully not against Magnus!.
