bruh these puzzles are so much easier than the ones i get. at least the first 20
Honestly after watching this i immediately did a puzzle rush improving my previous best from 30 to 36
On puzzel 13 couldn’t you take with rook as well?
yes, please do make more puzzle solving video's! it really helps how to think. i started playing chess like 4 months ago and started doing puzzles like 2 months ago and sometimes i get stuck. just got at rating 1509 this morning.
i did 72 puzzles
This is for the beginners
neck
do 800 puzzles
10:35 not even mentioning rh3 losing the queen
Alternative title: How to solve 49 puzzles
Levys puzzles: Spot the hanging queen
My puzzles: Find mate in 5 with a bishop sacrifice
Im at 20 right now
I solved 47 and im happy
so on puzzle 33 I calculated either a repetition of moves with rook checking the king, or just straight up losing for black, if white didn't hang mate. That pinned knight is terrible for black. Am i missing something ?
eyyy new highscore in puzzle rush
DON'T TRY TO SOLVE IT🙅🏻♂️
Hard Mate in 3🔥

The more intensely Levy thinks of puzzles, the more he sounds like XQC
Hey, in puzzle 33 after rook to g2 the white king is mate anyway after rook to any a-e2 square with discovery check from the bishop. They made the puzzle to mate the king with only one move with the rook to g1.
27:45 He did not solve that puzzle 😂 (or it took him a while)
I just finally got 50 puzzles. Thx for the advice
30:48 me:ROOK G7
8:48 is possible to go rook f6 and sack the rook and sack the rook then take back with the horse for the triple fork to take the queen and threatens mate by getting trapped with the pawns and going in with a rook/bishop after the rook is dealt with. That being said, I’m 500 elo on Chess.com so there’s a fair chance I missed smth
Puzzles
"Don't take the rook, of course take the queen"
Me who wanted to take the bishop: 🤭
Me when I saw like three of the puzzles before him feeling like hikaru
thank you @gothamchess got past my previous record in these puzzles in one try just by doing that check list! super helpful keep up the videos!
You are not a moron, but still, it does take a lot of chess practice to see the moves instinctively.
"Puzzles? What is that? Who needs it anyways, Blitz time."
My maximum was 42
19:54 made me die laughing
"whUt"
Hey man any advice to get to 700 elo?
10:38 that is not gotham, rook might pin you
Wth when I actually play puzzles by myself I only make it to 20 on average but on here I still pause the video to see the puzzles myself before I continue and I am solving puzzles 30+
9:55 what if king goes f1
34:40 just go queen G7 mate
Can someone tell me why at puzzle 9 night e5 is wrong
how? 6:53
Thanks for all your content, it helped me improve a lot. I just tried a puzzle rush yesterday and did 45! My best ever score ever, and highest puzzle difficulty I solved!
I tried this and I instantly beat my pb and gotten a 25 (old pb was 21).
Wouldve been 27+ if I didn't misclick or premove
"Never repeat moves because it means the puzzle is wrong."
Most of the time, yes. Although I did have a puzzle where the object was to force a draw by repetition in a dead lost position. Granted, it was a 2100 rated puzzle, so a beginner will not get that (which is who this video is geared towards). Just thought it was interesting because I thought "No way is the solution to repeat moves," but it turned out that that was correct.
Hello Levy, I remember that when I watched this video I was 900 rated and found these puzzles very tough to solve. Now I am 1600 by watching all your videos on a daily basis and not missing a single one of the videos, I can solve all the 50 puzzles. Thank you for improving my chess.
btw 21:55 if king h1 then rook anywhere on the 2nd rank mate
Gotham: try to get 10 or 15 right
Me without premium
I learned so much from this guy. He's beginner-friendly and a bubbly character too.
Levy: the last puzzle bender
When you explain it I can see the patterns. But then I fail miserably.
Finally I got to 50. Naturally my 3rd mistake was on #51.
26:34 take take mate wait 🤣😂
Who noticed a lag in video 6:00
levi i love your videos, increased my puzzle rating by 300 just from memorizing "checks, captures, attacks"
i swear i had this exact run of puzzles on lichess.
