Top Comments of this video!! :3
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!

Your video announcing going back to competitive chess was honestly super inspiring, I looked into some local tournaments and have my first one in a couple weeks! I’ve single handedly learned so much from your channel and I’ve been practicing so much more on my own, I’ve seen the results! Keep pushing, I can’t wait till I see the video titles “IM OFFICIALLY A GM”

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!

Literally anything you post related to your GM journey, I will gladly watch. I would also definitely sign up to a patreon of in depth breakdowns; thats actually exactly what ive been hoping for....Dont underestimate yourself, Levy. I know 30 is "old" for Chess, but you seem sharper than ever to me when your nerves arent getting the best of you.

8:33 Next time, play titled Tuesday with a tape on the name and ELO of your opponent

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!

Have you considered a sports psychologist? Top athletes have recommended them in the past, and if your greatest weakness is nerves, might be worth your time. We're all rooting for you, Levy!
