Daniel got stop interrupting people and actually respond to what they're saying instead of just tryna blurt whatever dumb shit cross his mind at ever given moment. Truly aggravating.
Who is Michelle's coach at the beginning of the stream?
Anna Cramling
Eurobeat improves accuracy by 100%
Poki was laughing about Xqc saying chess was like a tree, buy Xqc was right. Chess engines essentially also picture the chess board as a tree-shaped data structure.
I love Anna’s commentary
This is making me way more aggressive than playing Mario Kart
it was so weird for me to hear people say 'rubius is the og xqc' cause the vibe they give me is so different (but then again i am sure they dont mean it like that haha)
Same haha, I get that they like to joke about it because they are both huge and look a little alike but vibe wise and from what I've seen of their personalities they seem very different
Xqc and pokimane really suprised me by their level of playing. If they work on the things they missed and understand why they missed it and how to spot these tactics next time, they will be very tough competition
5:22:15 Hikaru hiding a smile like a proud dad
Can I say fucked lmao
Rainn wilson is smurfing!
Every time I watch these on YT to catch up I can only think of all the YEP CLOCK in chat :D
XQC is the funniest by far. He even has the judges laughing. Bing bang boom my streamer xqcl
Honestly. I don't care for him as a streamer for the most part, but watching him during these chess tournaments is so fun.
The deafening pharmacist principally suffer because laugh putatively fire sans a uptight fan. heavenly heavy hellish, fantastic refrigerator
Hikaru agrees, in case you were wondering
Poki, Rubius and Daniel pouring love over Anna was the most heartwarming thing I've seen in quite some time. It's so well deserved.
@Emircan Cura No problem, I'd say castling is the main other somewhat odd move. But it's much more common.
@Albin Engström oh thx for info, yeah you are right. Is there any other move like that in game ?
@Emircan Cura It's a special pawn move called an En Passant. It doesn't happen very often so it's easy to forget about or simply not know about.
Dude at 1:45:32 how white pawn go d6 and eat black pawn at d5? There are no pawn to eat here i dont understand how this move possible?
3:10:54 look at logic and Rian..
Dude at 1:45:32 how white pawn go d6 and eat black pawn at d5? There are no pawn to eat here i dont understand how this move possible?
Daniel Negreanu shouldn't have resigned. Chances are very high that xQc would have drawn.
@David Pement ah that makes sense ty, it didin't know that special move.
@Emircan Cura Not sure why you replied to this comment, but the move is called "en passant". On the turn immediately after a pawn moves up two squares, the other player's pawn can capture as if it moved only one square up.
Dude at 1:45:32 how white pawn go d6 and eat black pawn at d5? There are no pawn to eat here i dont understand how this move possible?
why does xqc keeps thinking the opponent will make stupid moves ahahaha
@Flaze07 oh thx i didint know.
@Emircan Cura en passant edit: if enemy pawn is right beside your pawn when u pushed it to move two at once, enemy pawn can capture it
Dude at 1:45:32 how white pawn go d6 and eat black pawn at d5? There are no pawn to eat here i dont understand how this move possible?
XQC and his engine lul
Dude at 1:45:32 how white pawn go d6 and eat black pawn at d5? There are no pawn to eat here i dont understand how this move possible?
I love how insecure Daniel is around Hikaru :D In the other matches he was like “Wow, that is some grandmaster level play!” But now he just said “Well, I know that this is not grandmaster level, but they’re playing really good!”, because Hikaru was there. Also, his confused reaction at Hikaru calling cheetahs Cheetos is just omg
@PukkarPukkar that makes sense thx.
@Emircan Cura it's called en passant. When an enemy pawn moves two squares in one move and lands right next to one of your pawns you have the opportunity to take the pawn in passing as is demonstrated here. But only if you do it on your following turn, after that you can't take it en passant anymore.
Dude at 1:45:32 how white pawn go d6 and eat black pawn at d5? There are no pawn to eat here i dont understand how this move possible?
Love Negreanu and Rainn, weird timeline we are living in! Logic seems pretty cool too, wonder how much he played before this and how much he was into it. Really close games against Rainn who seems experienced.
Dude at 1:45:32 how white pawn go d6 and eat black pawn at d5? There are no pawn to eat here i dont understand how this move possible?
5:23:25 or so there’s a skip and he goes from being in check to having completed the mate.
@Finn Padmore ahh i see thx for info.
@Emircan Cura This is en passant, the pawn can take the other pawn because when it is played forward 2 squares it passes through a square the other pawn is defending. It is a bit like how you can't castle a king through a square where it would be in check.
Dude at 1:45:32 how white pawn go d6 and eat black pawn at d5? There are no pawn to eat here i dont understand how this move possible?
Good shit
@Emircan Cura no problem and it is not new lol the devs haven't updated the game in centuries
@naturally selected thx for your time mate, yea i played chess irl but i never heard en passant before; its not new right? Im kinda in shock cuz i played chess for like 2 years and im learning this move right now.
@Emircan Cura yea there is obviously castling and promotion but the other rules are about draws. Fifty move rule, threefold repetition, etc. There are also some complicated otb rules if you play chess in real life on the board
@naturally selected oh i didin't know that thx, is there any other special moves?
@Emircan Cura Google en passant. Its one of the special rules in chess where a pawn can capture another pawn if it moves two squares right next to the enemy pawn.
Why is xQc the 6th person in the thumbnail? omegalul definitely not a coincidence
@Emircan Cura its called en passant look it up on google to understand it better
Dude at 1:45:32 how white pawn go d6 and eat black pawn at d5? There are no pawn to eat here i dont understand how this move possible?
I don't know how to play chess, I just watch xqc and hope that he does what the commentators suggest. Such an emotional rollercoaster
I like what Rain pointed out at 4:26:25, Armageddon is too hard for beginners. 1 minute less for black is too much of a disadvantage, I think playing White is enough of an advantage tbh
@Emircan Cura google en passant
Dude at 1:45:32 how white pawn go d6 and eat black pawn at d5? There are no pawn to eat here i dont understand how this move possible?
daniel negreanu looks so pissed in his post game interview
I think he thought he was much better than xQc and expected to roll him.
4:45:15 Ah, good old Caster Curse strikes again.
Logic vs Rainn was like watching Vegeta vs Goku.
This is so goddamn wholesome. Holy shit. I needed this.
Pokimane played so well honestly wow
3:37:39 Danny is so adorable!!
Xqc interview was hilarious.
3:40 who is the blonde girl?
54:00 who is the blonde girl?
2:50:15 best part
What is the song XQC is listening to at the end of the final game?
5:39:26 whats the expression poki used? I will be ?? for you fellow frenchie
@Polar ohhhhhhh thank you so much
rooting
they never listen in on poki, rip
Hikaru for sure was saying cheetos not cheetahs
Hikaru and Daniel are so awkward together 😂
"Anna Cramling getting bongclouded", how hot does that sounds!
Super impressed by Logic
Identity theft is not a joke Jim.
anna: that was 5head xqc: now you're speaking my language
I love xQc so damn much.
Our warlord
xqc the lategame monster
1:17:43 how sweet geez
This is so fun!
3:47:45 making IM daniel look dumb hikaru is lowkey a demon
Agreed with Rainn 100% Armageddon doesn’t make sense for this tourney as a tie breaker. Black doesn’t have a good enough drawing chance in practice.
3:37:42🤣🤣🤣
4:02 the time control conversation is so awkward. Why doesn't she just tell she doesn't get the question :(
Well i take back what I said about Rainn being 1700+ from day 1 after this Logic match. Great game from both of them but that was definitely not a great Spanish. He missed several moves in both games that would have been very obvious and natural for a 1700+, and instead played moves that would have seemed fine in the mind of a 1000-1200
Hahaha 1700? It's a joke?
What's that music at the end? Shazam doesn't register it
As good as xQc now is at chess, his commentary is absolute gold - he's invented more chess terminology in one year than existed up to that point. His wooden shield butcher blade juicer was particularly effective today.
Holy shit the warlord strikes again. Watching him steamroll Poki is satisfying
When rubis kin is on a 2 she should move her queen to c1
Who’s the white girl in the opening clip?
xqc's 5:27:12 song?
Same, I really want to know
You can tell that Daniel's ELO comes from tricking people with gambits and not from good fundamentals.
incredible, all of these games were really really good. what an improvement, especially by xqc. they can all be proud today
Why does this make me so happy... :')
I'll bet if grip6 didn't have a 2 inch thumbhole on the side of their wallets people wouldn't always be dropping them because it would actually fit in a pocket.....
XQC with some openings would be the favourite in this tournament.
imagine logic losing
Top 3 tactics in chess: 3. Wooden Shield 2. Ice Skater 1. BUTCHER BLADE SIDEWAYS CROSSOVER
@Promix|Games If it was "top 12 tactics" those would definitely be on the list ;) I wish I could find all of these in his vids (in particular, Backwards Frozen Glasses) lmao
You forgot these: The Pick Axe The Backwards Frozen Glasses The Backwards Catapult The Wobble The Lord The Broken Staircase Ladder The Scissors Lift The Lobster Pincer The Queen's Trifecta (my favourite)
Another great day. Well done team!! Host Daniel looked v tired towards the end. But thank you. Enjoying this tourney!
Can't wait to see GM XQC blindly smash Magnus Carlsen
4:55:50 she spent the whole day just to blunder
oops
@Agent 58 Been a minute since i watched chess lol my bad... initially thought en passant was basically a fork w a pawn😂
Google en passant
5:19:36 song name? pls
Yo beat the poker master Daniel? I’m impressed.
wtf i didn’t even realized pogchamp 3 was this week
5:32:10
2:26:40 Daniel remembers he's a mortal man
Logic listening to the stream and playing the suggested moves of Hikaru 😂
Dwight: Before I moved mt Knights, I think: "Would an idiot do that?" and if they would, I would not move that Knight.
They better be careful putting a live mic on Dnegs. He might kick a dog or smash a laptop.
Guys what is a CAPS score.. I have no idea what that means
Presicion of moves compared to chess engine
3:27:05 I know Hikaru does jokes sometimes but here he sounds like arrogant piece of shit
rank 2000 = 3rd highest ranking for female player ... literally a slightly better than average male player is about the same skill level as the third highest rank woman player ... and this is all in the name of "equality" ... i think liberals need to look up that word in the dictionary.
modCheck ASKERS??
@Polar you're trying to gatekeep the KGcode comments because you feel like it wasn't related enough to the topic of the video when it literally is about what is on the video. will i find you in the rest of the comments doing the same thing, or did you just feel the need to do that to my comment only? as i said, clearly just moral posturing and virtue signaling.
@Polar who is the one trying to cause drama pal
@jhanks2012 oh of course not, I'm merely confused at how simple and straightforward things can spawn bullshit like this, unfortunately.
@Polar you're probably confused about a lot of things
Was LOGIC watching the casters while playing Armageddon? I mean he made the knight move after Hikaru said it
Daniel did the same thing against xqc as he does in poker after reading his opponents perfektly, he calls to see he was right in the beginning 😂
It's funny how the worse Raine plays, the more convinced people think he's throwing. He's just not that good, he plays like a 1300
I saw a YT vid of him playing speed chess against Magnus from 8 years ago. He lost but in one game he had a chance cause Magnus was down on the clock, so...
Ludwig realizing that from here on out all matches are tough. 4:17:14 3:30:48
1:45:35 Initial D song...
Negreanu getting a little tetchy! Maybe he should step back and look at his chess before starting on gambits...
For next time, please can you not show the streamer perspectives, theyre streaming so we can watch it later, but we want to see the commentators reactions and ideas, the pro comments are more interesting
Danny: She is a killer right now. Anna: She is a adorable killer....
*an
KGcode stream chat: ULTRA TOXIC KGcode comments: Anna-level wholesome ?????
because in chat everyone can talk and every comment has the same chance of being seen but in comments we have the chance to ignore toxic comments
How humble and gracious is Logic! He’s a rapper? Loved their banter at the end. He did look devastated though.
I love how Hikaru is such a genius but some jokes just go over his head like chess moves go over mine 3:07:00
poki cheat 4:54:45
@ツDaedalus ohhhh no longer confusion 👍👽
@Black Jesus she isn't streaming and it sounds like she is being told what to do lol.
@ツDaedalus still confusion 👽
@Black Jesus how can that be explained lol, you can tell that Rensch is sussed out
Confusion 👽
That "Custom Board" is the most mass-producible looking chess board I've ever seen, lol. I am surprised no one has ever thought of a design like that before.
Poki looks so focused and devoted it's almost scary.
No way Poki is 700
She has a alt account. On her main she has most wins against 700 elo which would be impossible. I think on her alt she is like 1000 at least.
Not to be that guy, but did anyone else notice that the bishops and rooks were swapped places in the sponsor thing 1:35:49 Come on guys. Come on
Poki could have given backrank checkmate had she played her knight a bit better.
