I think it would be hilarious if, instead of being banned, cheaters would permanently be matched up against other cheaters only.

I love how Gotham starts his videos with 'Ladies and gentlemen' and ends with 'Get out of here'

13:46 Me who instinctively thought of playing e5 because I wanted to hit the knight without thinking of much else due to my bullet tendencies: "Perhaps I am StockFish"

black hangs their queen by dyslexia sounds like a crazy headline

As a cheater, thanks for giving us the spotlight and recognition we deserve. We appreciate it.

"Were gonna jump into them" Gotham 2023

As a beginner, Levy explaining when a cheater uses a first or second computer move and the impact on the game provides interesting insights into the game of chess. Thanks Levy.

I love how cheater 2 was playing Levy's black gambits repertoire and Levy was like "unprincipled play" ???

The Five Pillars of Gothamchess 1. Magnus (in titles, in thumbnails, everywhere) 2. Guess the Elo 3. Gothamchess recaps 4. 600 Elo chess 5. Catching cheaters online It’s basically a religion

At 1st, I was a fan of these series, after watching this masterpiece, I became a whole air conditioner.

Watching Levy reacting to the game between Cheaters 3 & 4 was so entertaining. Keep up the great work! 16:46 Cheater 4: "Here's a free bishop on B4" Cheater 3: "Nah, the computer's best move is rook to G1"

Cheater 3 vs. Cheater 4 was probably the most hilarious game of all time, and the cheater that should've won losing on time was the cherry on top

This was a turmoil of emotions: embarassement, hilarity, astonishment... interesting. If so many cheaters play against each other it means that it is in fact a war of bots through humans by proxy. So many social and philosophical implications. I feel like I'm witnessing what I red once in a '50 paperback dystopian novel.

I love how levy says,”any human on the planet will play this” and i’m like no, I would blunder something

Tips Levy has given to all cheaters so far: - Don't spend the same amount of time per move - Actually be somewhat decent at chess without the engine - Don't take 4 seconds to recapture a free piece - Alternate between your own move and engine moves (That's why you have to be decent at chess outside of the engine) - Make sound, common sense moves that you would make without the engine - Intentionally make mistakes/blunders/misses that don't make you outright lose but make you lose your advantage/let your opponent counterplay

i think magnus is secretly a cheater that had just memorized every top engine move

Watching Levy has become part of my daily routine

Who wants an one hour compilation of Levy saying "a cheater played another cheater and this cheated played another cheater"??? Edit: yeah it's here kzfaq.info/get/bejne/m56PeKWHmqfempc.html

Wow, Gotham Chess! Your insights and humor in this video are on point as always! I love how you break down complex chess concepts in such an entertaining and approachable way. Keep up the great work and keep making us laugh while we learn.

Cheating in chess is like playing chess with the amount of thought people put into it. Seems kind of pointless when you think of it like that.

This time Levy stared so powerful I went blind

Today's stare was a very interesting one, he looked at us in a kind of sad way but also a very interested. A solid 9.5/10

props to the last cheater for not being a coward

Me trying to focus* My brain :- Look at that white dot on his tshirt

I love how gotham says that we love cheater content, when he is the one I like to see the most

This is definitely one of Levi’s videos this year

I love the idea of a cheater going out of their way to dominate but trying to also remain under the radar and then getting crushed by another cheater and so on. Just brilliant karmic justice, especially since they all got banned lol

my favourite irony about this is that the cheaters are playing all these mystifying moves and will never know why they're playing them because they've never played logical moves and thus can't distinguish between a cpu's gibberish and something with a thread of logic to it.

Today's stare felt different. Powerful. Like Zeus himself was staring at me. 10/10 Levy. Simply unbeatable.

"I shall hang a piece in an uncomplicated opening at the 2000 Elo level. Clearly, no one will find this sus"

24:45 the legendary took sacrifice into a forced fork is so brilliant I can’t even imagine

the word “cheater” or “cheating” was said approximately 112 times

Just because we "memorise" the best moves doesnt mean were cheating

Unfortunately, Levy has earned the title of being the best cheater detector. Rest in peace cheaters 💀

It’s funny how they actually make themselves more suspicious when avoiding the top move. A knight is attacked and then in .5 seconds he makes a move on the other side of the board 😂

that Egyptian guy was the king of the cheaters for sure 😂

16:22 Bro Levy you trying to swear bro

I love the moment when cheater 6 said "it's cheating time", and then cheated all over the board

I loved the part where levy himself catches 6 cheaters

Cheaters getting theirs is what I live for.

Levy: *Connects* Cheaters: It's time to shine

6 Cheaters getting EMBARRASSED by Gotham will be remembred for generations

I also caught 6 cheaters, my wife, best friend, his wife, the mailman, my child, and my neighbor

"This cheater was a TANK!" LOL!

You could make an entire series about Cheater 2, that bot was insane 😂

Everyone only comments about his stares nowadays. Let's first appreciate the absolutely banger content he provides to his audience. You are truly worth more than a queen Levy!

"And in this position"... arguably one of the greatest chess lines to ever exist (21:10)

21:27 😂 I died when you said it still took him 4 seconds to take it 🤣💀

Today's prolonged stare made me burst into tears. Truly menacing. Probably the best stare of the month. 2/10

21:27 no way the computer found the Magnus gambit, that's another level of cheating!

Fun fact: cheaters are the most proud players without anything they can be proud of😂😂😂

I'll be honest I freaking love cheater content and feel like there isn't enough. What's almost as satisfying as getting a notification that my points have been returned from a suspected cheater, especially after I got toasted and think I'm even more trash than I am, is watching these dirty cheaters get banned 🚫 Keep it coming Levy but don't lose the educational content too.

Your teaching makes me come back in chess after a year 😊😊 And be a great game knowledge provide by your videos, appreciate your work, thank you sir 🙂❤️😊

We all love you and especially you if you expose this cheating creatures all around us and turn them into the best content of the day!

Levy : no human on earth plays e to d5 . Me who always plays e to d5: guess I'm a robot now.

Chesscom and lichess should to this: Instead of banning cheaters, shadow ban them in a way that they are always matched with another cheater. They suffer and we have fun.

ive never played chess and i have no idea whats happening, but i like his passion.

I'd be all for a separate cheaters-only bracket. The winner gets an expired Amazon gift card

i didnt know it was so continuous... was this in a row? this is so fun to watch backed by levys commentary!

Watching cheaters is my guilty pleasure because I not only love seeing them get exposed and banned but there's always that ever so slight possibility they take an L on the way out.

Silly me, I was looking for illegal moves. Didn't think about online chess and having Magnus play for them. But I've only been watching this stuff for a couple months...mostly for the comedy content and now for the amazing championship match.

Levy is simultaneously, both extremely cool, and extremely nerdy. 😂 ❤ Chess ❤ Levy

they can see elaborate queen traps in 4 seconds but can't see that they got a free knight

Love your content, Levy. I think it would be interesting to do a bot battle between two bots made to play the worst more/lose the game like worstfish. The pair trying to make the worst moves possible could make for some hilarious content and perhaps provide space to shed light on why certain moves are the worst. Thought you might like the idea. Thanks for all your work to entertain, inform, and educate us! hope you have a wonderful day

“You can’t stop an avalanche with a horse” - Levi

This is like honor among thieves, where they don't want to report the other cheater because their cheating will be discovered too.

The 6-7 seconds was just how long it took Carlsen to take an other shot

Levi is the type of guy who stares at a camera for a few seconds at the start of the video.

This was easily your funniest video ever, props to you Levy

How to get away with cheating: get 80% to 87% accuracy

I wish when the game find someone is 100% cheating it just turns the legit player's pawns into queens 😂😂😂

My ex-wife was a cheater. She was cheating on me with my buddy, Tom.

Today's stare was intense as if levy had caught me cheating with someone. 9/10

So the optimal stealth cheating tactic is to just learn how to play at 1800 level and only cheat in extreme losing conditions. "Just"

Starting to get the impression that encountering cheaters happens more often than encountering legit players.

At first I was a fan of this series, but after this masterpiece, I am now a air conditioner.

I thought Lario was a plumber? Now he's diversified to being a cop.😅

Cheater 4 had a bad day, losing both games.

the stare today was a 10/10. empowering, with a sense of power and authority. truly a work of art

Can we all just appriciate how much he makes our day every day, it just lightens my day everytime theres a new video. Thanks Levy :)

I've never heard of, straight up botting moves into the game instantly. No thoughts, no input, just, destruction and murder, while they make breakfast.

the stare at the start might look weak at first glance but it so amazingly alienates the viewer into a state of questioning and uncertainty which perfectly transmits the feelings of the upcoming video material to the viewers brain and gets them ready and hooked into the ultimate loore of the upcoming footage. 10/10 my soul left my body for a second there

Today's stare was captivating. With the slight smile at the end of gentleman, my heart melted. 12/10.

As a cheater, i approve of this video

This concludes that the world is round lmao.

This was hands down the best idea for a video

I think gothamchess is making up these games

1 st I love u gotham Pls like this comment ❤❤❤

I really don't understand what satisfaction cheaters get.

Six degrees of deception.

How can someone cheat like you taking the fun out of it? I swear there is no better feeling than winning on your own, and using your own brain, your own strategies, not just in chess, any game in general

cheater 2 vs cheater 6 would've been a sight to behold.

Gotham is like the jerry springer of chess exposing all the cheaters

#3 vs #4 was nuts

If I play my moves every 6/7 seconds, I might trigger my inner cheater who is much more capable than me

We need a 4 player chess game with only cheaters fr💀

levy is the type of guy to say stockfish when people ask him his favorite fish

To explain why picking the 2nd best move is sometimes stupid: Imagine there is one move that is completely winning or saving you. And then there is a 2nd move that is sloppy damage control. The AI evaluates the value of each move, and then orders them based on the evaluation value. This can be something like 2.1, 1.8, 1.7, etc. Here multiple moves are roughly equally good. Sometimes it's 3.6, 0.4, 0.3, etc. Here everything except that one move is bad. The AI they used to cheat with probably didn't show them the evaluation, only the moves in the list. One way to program difficulty for AI is to make the AI randomly pick the n'th item in the list. What I did once is to weigh every item in the list based on their evaluation, and then randomly pick based on that - giving the highest chance for better moves, and having lower chance for bad moves.

The first time I watched this I didn’t put 2 and 2 together and thought it was a coincidence that they had the same position😂

25:44 was truly one of the moments of all time
