Understood it in 2 minutes. Once watched a nearly 2 hour long video from Yale university and didn't understand it. The teaching power of this woman is strong.

YOU SAVED MY LIFE BY MENTIONING THE WORD "SWITCHING PERSPECTIVE"

I'm taking Micro in grad school and I haven't understood a thing that was being taught. In 5 minutes you cleared up what 200 pages and 2 professors could not. Thank you!

Best video I have seen about Game theory so far, much appreciated

9 years later and this is still the best explanation on this concept. Thank you.

7 years later and you've saved my life. I have a micro final coming up and explaining that we are "trying to find X's response to Y's strategy" might just get me an A in this class. Thank you very much.

What my professor couldn't teach me in a 90 min lecture, I was able to learn in 5 min from you, thank you! You'd make a great professor!

It took me 3 minutes to understand something that my professor could not explain in 3 hours... Thank you Ashley! Also! GREAT CHOICE OF EXAMPLES (I am literally obsessed with HP universe and Jane Austen books)

9 Years later this is still one of the best and easy explanation videos ever on game theory. Thank u, Ma'am.

Nash Equilibrium learned in 5 mins... Thanks a ton!! Looking forward to checking all your tutorials.

my econ teacher couldnt explain this as well as u thanks

The whole day of book readings and finally normal explanation ! Thank you a lot !

I've been trying to understand for days, literally did your examples and went to the excercies i couldn't solve half an hour ago and now i can spot the Nash Equilibriums EASY! Thank you so much!!

I read from 4 different books and wasted a whole day and I still had no idea about what I was reading. Then I decided to watch your video and bam! I understood everything in just 5 minutes. Thank you so much!

I’ve been searching Nash Equillibrium for my whole day yet still stuck, and suddenly your vid came to my life as a lifesaver

I watched this the morning OF my AP test and this helped me a ton, because we were taught Game Theory weird. It also helped me to teach my classmates as well! Super helpful!

I needed to understand Nash's Equilibrium vs the Pareto Optimization today - and capped off the day with your video. Now I FINALLY understand why it's called the Prisoner's "Dilemma" because, rationally, they cannot achieve the Pareto Optimality without external incentives (threat of death for squealing, e.g.). I think it might be useful to kind of add that tidbit in your explanation - but if you come to this video after any other content, your explanation really closes out the subject for comprehension - THANK YOU!

I wasted 6 months attending lectures and i was always confused in NE and now learned in few minutes thank you

Just failed my Game Theory midterm today, then I came here, regret that it could be that simple if I found this video earlier. Thank you.

That´s really the best explanation all over youtube!!! THANKS

It took you five minutes to explain something my teacher couldn't in 3 hours. Thank you very much.

so easy to understand, saved 45 years of mine. thanks!

You and Mr. Clifford are really saving us Econ students, can't thank you enough!

I'm immensely grateful for your explanation. Your explanation was very comprehensive and helpful.

How beautiful this is A video from the past saves my life after 8 years , thank you very much this is much clear now

I struggled to understand this concept for days but you managed to explain this in less than 2mins!

You're one in the millions! Lessons not understood in months are understood in a few minutes. Thank you, exceedingly

I read my handout not understanding but you have simplified my introduction to Strategy and Game Theory Thanks very much

I’ m french but it was clearer with an English-speaker teacher thank you

very nice video, I have watched almost an hour video without understanding what I understood in few minutes with this video. thanks

Honestly understood in few mins like a piece of cake. Hats off to you. Spent 4 hours in understanding and here understood in few mins. Thanks a lot.

this is a really good explanation, much easier than my teacher's explanation. thank you!

1 month of reading professor's book trying to understand Nash Equilibrium and it only took me 2 minutes here. Thank you

This is a miraculous teaching method here of this complex topic.

It took me 1min 43sec to finally learn something that I’ve been struggling with my entire time as an Econ major. Thanks a bunch!

I never understood this during my lecture at the uni. This video helped me understand it in minutes. Great job Ashley. Thank you!!

Beautiful Ashley. I think my 3-year son can understand you. I did not understand the concept after going to university, Russell Crowe movie and 10 videos on youtube. Dominant strategy and Nash Equilibrium in five minutes. I love your sentence "switch perspective", so clear for me. Thanks a lot. Thumb Up and Subscribe!

This is the best and most crisp explanation of Nash equilibrium ever! Thank you so much!

With the examples and simple explanation you exhibited in the video, I came back to the original Prisoner's Dilemma problem and drew the box with the prisoners' respective strategies and outcomes. Instead of yearning for more numerical value, this one focused more on the "less" numerical value (lesser time in jail = more preferable). I finally understood it when the answer lead to one Nash Equilibrium despite having another and better choice (top-left box). Thanks!!

With Harry and Malfoy there would be a Nash Equilibrium in mixed strategy, by Nash's theorem (1950, I believe).

I've watched several videos trying to understand this concept and yours made perfect sense. THANK YOU!

Thank you for cutting out the BS and explain so succinctly. I have exam in 2 days and this surely will help me gaining few extra points.

Best example for Nash Equilibrium online. Thanks!

This is the only explanation of nash equilibrium I've seen that actually makes sense, bravo!

Thanks Mum. Your explanation is way better and simple than My EC202 Lecture. I will tell my mates to watch this and sure they'll say the same thing. Not only this but all your videos are great.

You have such a lovely way of teaching, this certainly makes a difference and makes really easier for people to learn! Thank you for this video!

Very well explained: A] Two nash -- no Dominant Strategy, B] One NE + Two DS, C] No NE + No DS, D] One NE + One DS for Hermione.. So far a better video in past two years that I have seen

Best video I have seen about Nash Game theory

wow after watching like 10 videos on this topic, urs is absolutely the best!

Thank you for this video, I can't tell you enough how much better this explanation was than the one I got from my economics professor.

You're the first video I found with pointing. Thank you so much

Madam, you saved my life. I have an exam in 20 mins and you have saved me

I looked at a lot of explanations and videos of Dominant Strategy and Nash Equilibrium, but yours was truly fast and easy at the same time. Thank you very much for that easy and understandable explanantion :)

im crying, how it can be that easy... you saved my life, thank you so much!! ❤

Ashley, saying you're a lifesaver would be an understatement. Thanks a million!

My professor made this rocket science. I love your explanation and understood it in 2m.

This video was amazing, even the description for the Prisoner's Dilemma. So a Nash Equilibrium is basically a set of best responses. Good enough for me.

OMG, the BEST EVER, I took more than 1 hour trying to get the best explanation and i could not find till i get your explanation. Thank you very much and GOD Bless you.

Hello, just wanted to let you know that I watched your video an hour before an important Masters exam and you saved me a lot of marks! Thanks!

Thanks for a life saver of a video, I agree, the use of the word perspective was brilliant!

amazing examples!!!! understood before the end of the video....

Best video on Nash Equilibrium.

Professor taught this for 2 hours and I didn't understand a word, you taught this in 2 minutes and its the easiest lesson I've ever learned

You're the only person who seems to know how to explain this!

Been searching for a while for a good video to help with my homework, this was perfect, thank you

Literally i got it from the beginig of the video thank you you are better than my TAs

You covered One entire chapter in 5 minutes. I understood more in this 5 minutes than in an hour of class lectures. Thank you.

That was the first time Nash made sense to me. Thank you.

THIS VIDEO SAVED MY LIFE thank you so much for the upload!!!!!

You have no idea how much this helped

You explain this concept BETTER than anyone else on the web

YOU’RE SUCH A LIFE SAVER!!!!!! I HAVE MY AP EXAM IN 3 DAYS AND THIS WAS THE ONLY TOPIC THAT I COULDN’T GET THE HANG OF BUT NOW IT’S ALL CLEAR! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!

im sitting my micro econ exam in 2 hours and have been trying to figure this out for a semester and you cleared the air up in 5 mins. wow. thanks!!

Thanks so much Ashley for explaining this game theory so good making it look too much easy

what wonderful explanation. The first time ever i understood equilibrium nash . Thanks a lot

Very helpful! I finally understand it! Btw I loved how you nearly ran out of the camera shot at the end haha! Thank you so much

My god after watching other videos for 1 hour, you could have not explained it better and how to do it. Thank you do much

Best video, watched 5 videos before was still unclear. 2 min of this video and i fully understand game theory. Thank you very much, i appreciate it! 👍🏼

You're way better than my lecturer. Easy and straightforward!

Best explain of the Nash Equilibrium that I've never seen before! Thank you dear!

Outstanding explanation, simple yet, informative. Thank you very much!!

i literally spent 5 days doing an essay trying to figure out the matrix, watching this video helped me and i was so happy!!!

Never thought I'd learn ge theory from Emma Stone.

Took me less than a minute to understand in comparison to my 2 uni lectures, eternally grateful :)
