"Control the center and chess is easy."
Me who does this but in 3 moves loses 4 pieces:
This reeeeeeealy helped
a knight on the rim is ugly and grim
i do that
This video inspired me to play chess
N now I'm 1046 elo ❣️
Thanks Gothem 👍🏻
That's the opening I've been using for years!
Background music?
This comment section is so annoying
Knight in middle my mind:nazi knight
Really helped me tho
Oh no you don't call it octopus, you call it the wheel of friendship and get banned.

I won 20 chess battles with that what he show in the vid
The rook is the only piece that can do the exact same amount of moves in any square of the board
Thank you so much lolz
And unknowingly i am using this type of opening from childhood
"we call it octopus knight"
Germany:"we call it history"
Great
yeah. Well that’s true!
then comes Magnus with his cornered knight and Bishop, a few doubled pawns without a rock and manages to destroy his opponent at the end. 😂
People who take tips from levy and hikaru
Kings Indian
Karo Can
(Sorry if I butchered karo can)
One of my 1000 elo friend allows me to have this and even after a queen sac I win😂😂
That's always my opening!
I already figured that out on my own without even knowing it works I just wanted to build a wall that looks cool while playing
Bro responded to my comment by a video thanks dude
I call the octopus knight a swastika knight
Thats why i like queens gambit
I USED THIS EXACT SAME STRAT WITHOUT KNOWING THIS
but i lost EVERY time 🙁
I saw a n@zi
Cow opening the GOAT
The king: uhh, I think putting myself in the center wasn’t a good idea
Me premoving everything 2 secs later wheres my queen?
You sick
Can you win against such hypothetical starting position?
bishops in the corner are also strong in that they can take pieces from 10 light years😂
I use that opening

I always do that
It was helpful bro😅😊
But chess daddy what if I bong cloud?
litteraly only the bishop and the horse cover more squares in the middle. the are the only ones bro!
okay and the Queen but there it is not as big of the diffrence.
The position is defnetly even more important. becorse it is about what they cover.
still I understand the lesson is targeted to beginners and therefore not wrong
i just started playing chess and thinking about controlling the center in the early game made me sooooo much better
Make the center a trap
That is my style
Oh my god i love you send
what about. THE ROOKK!!!!?
Rooks are funny like that, if the bord is free of other pices, it can move to 14 squares no matter where it is stranding. There will always be context but its one reason why a rook is more valuble than a bishop.
Or you could play like you have a set of balls by opening with mega bong rip
Rook: 14 squares, no matter what.
Queen: Anywhere from 21 to 27. Always a threat.
Pawn: 3, or just 2 if it's on the a or h file.
King: 3 to 8, but that's not what he's made for.
