One thing I've noticed when you reviewed the Candidates games versus your games: Whenever you viewed the candidates games and Nepo, Nakamura, Fabi, etc. didn't play the best move, you'd often say "That's impossible to find" or "Easy move to make with the engine but difficult to make in the game" In your games you look at the engine and go "I don't know why I didn't play that" or "that's what separates me from being GM." Don't doubt yourself! You have the strength of a Grandmaster, don't use the engine to get imposter syndrome. You got this Levy!

Amazing to see you take on this journey once more. Even though we’re in completely different leagues, I feel I can relate a lot to your feelings of nervousness when playing higher level opponents and trying to improve at chess nearing 30 (I’m turning 30 in September, currently around 1450 and want to try and get to 2000 before 30). I’ve bought some of your courses recently and will be practicing my openings and middle games as well as my time management as that gets worse when I try to consider the best move for too long. One thing that you’ve said in one of your videos that makes me laugh but also helps is “When you’re trying to get to a certain rating in chess, you have to kinda disrespect that rating”. Which I’ve taken in as “Be more secure in your abilities, try your best, and you’ll get there”; and I definitely believe you’ll make it to GM. Excited to see what you’ll show us over the coming months/years!

The reason Episode 1 was received better than any candidates recap is because we love youuuuu!!!!!! Your personality, your humility, your comedy (not to mention your chess). Everyone is pulling for you and as you know, the haters are just insecure losers who need to hurt somebody to feel better about themselves. I agreed with Hikaru when he said the challenge for you will be the psychology, I can see that. This is easy to say and hard to do, but if you feel your confidence shaking, just remember how loved you are by your fans. You GO Levy!

9:15 , this part of hikaru's mindset is one of my biggest takeaways. Move quickly and synergize your pieces, everytime i see hikaru in a losing situation or wanting to apply time pressure he synergizes his pieces and hunts tactics for different spatial and angular advantages. I also think if you turn off seeing other players and looked to crush everyone you play, you're already GM level. I enjoy this kind of chess. 50s of thinking mean youre losing lmao, great game

One thing that might help your nerves, Levy, is trying to remember that even the top players have to see the moves. Think back to the Candidates when all these players missed the best moves. Your opponents have to beat you too, and you didn't become an International Master by being bad at chess. Just like they have an aura around them, so do you and if you can tap into that your opponents will have to deal with the same nerves you do.

The thing is he is more like that of a kid's trainer than a GM contestant these days, GMs are not coaches , they still are learners . Kids these days become GM at the age of 14 and then top GMs at the age of 20 and the reason is that they learn every day and practice more . Levy if wants to become a GM then he has to leave streaming and focus on real learning . All the GMs do streaming after they become GMs.

@@manasuniyal2897 Hikaru is arguable playing his best chess in his life right now, he just came second in candidates, hes still the #1 rated bullet player in the world and the #2 blitz player in the world only behind Magnus, and he is sitll streaming quite often, and along with that, even during the candidates, which due to the formatting take a ton of studying (all chess tournaments do of course, but the candidates are a two round round robbin which makes studying incredibly difficult since you have so little time), he was releasing analysis videos of his own games, it is possible to become a GM while streaming. You can make the claim that you have to become a GM first, but Hikaru is playing chess a level above most super GMs, which is a whole level above GM itself, so it is certainly possible to become a GM as a streamer.

While title Tuesday is great and facing off against GMs is great content for the road to GM, I think there are better videos to be made for this journey. Would enjoy seeing you break down your studying habits. How many days of the week do you practice and for how long each day? How much time is spent on doing puzzles, analyzing openings and analyzing games. I would love to see a video covering these topics! Would also love to see you layout a timeline of goals to hit to help you reach your GM goal! (I think bullet and blitz games should be secondary content for this journey, given that you will play less accurate with the time crunch, while showing us the slower methodical training would be more interesting given the context of road to GM.) Good luck on your journey, hope you’re successful!

When i was managing a top 3 team in the world, i was making the defense play against double the number of attackers. The argument was: if you train against this, a real game will be a piece of cake.

Ah, yes, by beating Anand. No, I am not dissing Anand. Anand is one of my favorite players of all time. But, still, look at Magnus' world championship performances. Especially his first title and his last title. Quite one sided. In both cases. And, in both cases... decided during the classical portion of the match. And speaking of Caruana, yes, his match against Magnus wasn't decided during the classical portion. But, well, the tie break was very one sided. And, well, there is the reason they fear him, if indeed they do. No, I am not a Magnus fanboy. Just saying that there is objective data that supports the notion that he really just is better.

@@xfKYZacTri you do genuinely sound like a fanboy, but I'll give you the benefit of the doubt, nevertheless your assessment falls terribly short aswell, for one, the age difference is a massive factor specially in world championship play where stamina is maybe the biggest factor, an in prime or close to prime state Magnus was going to win 9/10 times just on that factor alone, second. Yes Magnus is better in shorter time controls than Caruana, that does not disprove the fact he proved his equal on classical, third, Magnus actually trailed against Karjakin, so his performances have not been particularly dominant against players that don't fear him in classical, fourth his last performance is not really good evidence since even ding liren managed to beat Nepomniachti who is extremely prone to collapse, so yes, Magnus might be objectively better across the board, but the major difference between him and the rest of the top 10 is mostly psicological

Honestly, I really like hearing someone much better at chess than me struggling with some of the same stuff that I and many others do, like time management, nerves, and just making dumb mistakes in winning positions. But it's not just that, it's that these are being presented not as eternal flaws, but as issues that will be worked out and improved in time. It's honestly motivating, and I really like that.

Great energy man. You going for GM is definitely something to get behind! Don't forget to remain playful :) Also don't be too hard on yourself for losing blitz games. Thinking versus overthinking depends on the time control, not only the thought. Gotta let blitz be sacrificed for longer game training

Good luck with your goal Levy! You mention getting trained by a GM, but have you considered asking someone you know like Hikaru to play like an hour or two of continuous blitz games - obviously you might lose 15 in a row or whatever, but also it might help take some of the novelty away, and help with the nerves a bit - by the fifth game or whatever you'll just be playing chess rather than 'a super GM' and it might help afterwards as well. And at worst it might be good content?
