Came for the chess stayed for the fact he speaks like a seasoned professor

5 likes and I'll change my name to Mikhail Tal and then we'll play a match

At 9:10 you had a beautiful sequence with Bh4+ and Rf8# if he blocks with the rook or Qc7# if he blocks with the knight. Blocking with the queen is the only move that doesnt lose on the spot but then you're up a queen for a bishop.

in devotion to willtaylorchess this thumbnail has been tattooed on my back

Gotta love the abity to explain lines really well and put yourself down 6 minutes on the clock in a 10 minute game and still get the dub. Love the videos mate. Nice work!

A beautiful mate indeed Will. That was great fun. Thanks Will.

8:08 Nb6 would be devastating. The bishop on b8 is trapped if traded of, king would be in line with the rook. If axb6, Bxb6+ would pick up the queen.

Bro walking outta room after accurate move is iconic 🫡

Thumbnails looking particularly enticing all of a sudden

randomly found your channel at 2am , can found it very informative .. really one of the beautiful chckmate

This guy never disappoints

Highly beautiful checkmate

6:45 isn't bishop d2 just winning the knight?

Awesome video here Will! GOAT chess streamer

Dude this was just GLORIOUS!!! The 3 files and 2 diagonals. Then THAT FINISH!!!

Love the way you explain your moves

King

Broooo!!!! Love your contents!

Nice thumbnail will 👍

9:54 qb6 the boden's mate pattern kinda

Brooo, I love how you explain your moves, it helps us become much better at chess. 1 minute in and got 2 gold nuggets

0:31 - I think the best move was Be2, gambitting the e4 pawn for activity and development.

Beautiful mate, indeed. GG! 💪👍

Nice mic drop at the end :)

This guy is underated fr

Well done 👍

the thumbnail is immaculate was it made on google slides

Mans thumbnail game has increased

What a checkmate!

I’m a newish chess player, would you mind sharing any books or resources you use to learn these openings/lines? Your videos have been really helpful, all the best from the USA

Cold

bangerrr

That was a beauty

🐐🐐

Queen sacrifice... chef's kiss 👌

Damn that was tuff

Will, do you stream? I’d love to tune into you playing chess live sometime.

I realised I had not subscribed and did when you said it so maybe keep reminding your viewers ❤

I am just a little 500 player, but after you played bishop to d2, you played queen c1, but instead of that maybe bishop to g4 and after that rook b1 to sacrifice the rook and get the checkmate? Does that work?

Great Chess!

Criminal

6:36 can you now win the knight with bd2? Or am I missing something?

I play the Scotch too and have prepared against ...Qh4 but once it happens in an actual game I forgot everything I'm supposed to do😂 idk why that happens

I’m a tantalizing 700 watching this feeling completely out of place lmao but it’s so entertaining I can’t help it.

Which data base you use?

Could have sacked the knight for a bishop mate like 3 moves previous. That was beautiful though 😍

Will I love your shit, in the nicest way possible your lips are looking a little tooo red in the thumbnail ngl but still, absolutely dissecting your opponents as usual ⚔👊

You not only know your prep you also are an incredible speaker. Structured, confident and witty

you had a free knight lol

Never fails to be six minutes down and still win 😂😂

Why did you pin the knight with your darksquared bishop at 6:36?

7:51 what if he moved the knight to B5 , if pawn takes u take with bishop and u pin the king it is possible?

You should get a mouse pad mate

Wait I stopped here because I didn't understand. I thought Bd2 wins a piece here 6:40, because the knight is pinned and if black plays qc5+ I just would play kh1 and the knight would still be pinned and I don't see a way to defend the knight. What am I missing?

The withdrawals were almost the end of me. Been too long without a willtaylorchess stream or video (2 days)

Qb6+, axb6, bxb6# What a beautiful game and a lovely mate! Cheers for the Win 🎉

6:36 there was a pin to win the knite.

Bro upping his thumbnail game

6:45 did you miss Bd2

As a 500 this game was very complex

Queen's Gambit

9:10 there was bishop h4 which was devastating

That was very stressful to watch.

It can also be a check mate without sacrificing the queen bishop to h4 takes takes chemate

2:40 what about queen d5? if queen takes, you would get a royal fork and win a pawn back, also preventing castling edit: oh sorry didnt watch completely before showing why f4 is better

I thought the move was bishop to h4

Missed check mate 2 moves before with bishop h4

u gorgeous

9:21 can someone tell me why Bh4 is a bad move

Hikaru loves u😮❤

@9:52 bishop h4 is also mate

What about 25. Bh4+?

how can i join to your team in lichess, can you please say me the code will taylor chess

Me see Will video. Me happy. Me like and sub

at 703, If he played bishop d2 instead of f2, how will the other defend the knight??? Am I dreaming that?

69k subs when???

Bro ngl you make amazing fucking content, next gotham chess if u do it right

6:35 think bishop D2 was better

How come b!lack cant take your queen with their pawn?

9:30, why the fuck a 500 rating dude (me) found a mate in 7 in this position? Bishop H4 - Knight e7 then mate in 1 with Queen c7 Bishop H4 - g5 just takes and it still mate in 7 Bishop H4 - Rook e7 then mate in 1 with Rook f8 So, the only move that don't make it mate in 1 is : Bishop H4 - Queen e7 Which is followed by: Bishop takes e7 - Rook takes e7 Rook check on f8 - Rook e8 Queen c5 - d6 Queen takes d6 - Bishop d7 Queen c7 - King e7 Rook f7 MATE I KNOW, NOT THE FASTEST, BUT I, A 500 ELO, SAW THIS

I will do 100 pushups if Will responds to this comment

Disgusting 🤢

I disliked my own comment

6:42 u had Bd2. How does he save the knight?

Willtaylorchess, the code did not work
