Grandmaster Solves Grandmaster-Level Puzzles
THANK YOU FOR THE VIDEO!
The title should have "BREAKING NEWS" at the beginning
The second puzzle was amazing!
9:14 So what is the follow-up on Qa4 gainst Bd3? These puzzles are complete nonsense
I love how he says slay a tree.
It seems so obvious after you explain it 😅😅 Awesome video! Love how you break it down to show the same thought process as the lower level puzzles.
Im here thinking how someone can be this insane at chess and pattern recognition
blablalbla
The first puzzle looks like the one that Praggnanandhaa missed against Duda. So it's reasonable to be there.
Man, I saw the first puzzle and immediately saw the fork I didn't see the mate in one. You have no idea how stupid I felt when Danya said the complete opposite. Lesson learned, BEFORE EVERY MOVE, CHECKS, CAPTURES, THREATS. I try to use intuition and I'm not that good.
Dude, youre an amazing teacher.
Merci .
3:00 lmao I saw it in 0.5 second. Guess I'm a grandmaster now.
I genuinely love that you said, "slay a tree".
Why in second puzzle king take rook is forced?
wow, ezyly
When I was working on the second puzzle, I calculated up to Qa4, but I couldn't find a response to Bd3, which I believe is the most challenging response and unfortunately the computer did not play it. I was hoping Danya would analyze it. I checked it with the engine and apparently it is mate after Bd3 Bd5 Bxc2 Bxa2 which is incredibly difficult to find. Bd5 was definitely not on my radar.
Enjoyed Greatly!
Beautifully human opening monologue. Vulnerable and introspective. Such courage!
I wonder if there is a way to create the most complex puzzle possible with an engine
This is great, thank you
One day, it’ll be a normal chess board, then white to play and win
That was very interesting. One feels as though one really gets inside the head of a grandmaster solving problems.
0:00 Stockfish level puzzle: Black to Play and Win
At 15:01 blacks queen can prevent the mate and then whites only chance is stalemate if the bishop doesn’t move, then the queen moves out of the way in time to give the king room to move, and stops the pawn from promotion in time too
3rd puzzle is sexy and i solved it myself
Nice!! Thanks, keep them coming
as a 700 elo player i felt extremely proud at solving the 9:20 puzzle in less than 15 seconds
The third exercise was great! And it's also motivating to see that I can actually visualise the positions when you explain them, even if they are GM level exercises.
Amazing video
I'm 1000 rated and 18:50 was too easy
DANIEL "THE PROPHET" NARODITSKY
Wait, you mean you don't just play the first random check you see?
This is the best chess video I've watched
4:32 isnt it a pin and not a discovery check im new and im confused
You’re like the Khan Academy of chess. Thank you.
i really came up with queen a4 in 15 secs but i’m only an 800 😂😂
14 min: why wouldn't queen just move h4 to e1 and not respond with the bishop at all? it'd be checkmate
For which level 3100-4000 puzzles?
Grandmaster level puzzles = mate in one
third one bishop c6 king to e7 and then bishop to a3 is mate
that was godly
Please do another of these it is so fascinating
Im solving puzzles near 2400, but im 1570 so im not sure if this method of rating puzzles is correct, maybe they are lower than it says
In the second puzzle, fxg6 litterally blunders mate lmao. SF15 still gives +6 but there is a lot of chess still to be played before the smoke clears out.
I saw Grandmaster-Level puzzles, clicked on the video, saw an empty board and laughed my ass off
8:09, white Queen can defend B3 instead of taking pawn.
Do more puzzles please!
I solved the 3rd one on my own over the board, pausing the video before seeing it. Took like 15 minutes but wow that was satisfying.
I like this guy.
