  1. Danya Please Middle Games Videosss Playlistt

  2. Danya I Love You Please Playlist Middle Game Strategy

  3. I’ve watched so many pawn ending videos and this is the best

  4. what a suggestion by Youtube on a sunday afternoon. Great Explanation!!

  5. Terrific stuff 🙂 been loving going through these videos for the second round, which I highly recommend everybody does! Thank you for giving these lessons, Daniel 🙂 I love how pawn endgames have become my favourite "minigame" in chess!

  6. Thank you for making these videos. They are by far the best and most instructive on youtube. Just fun observation I made: I think the second game was actually already covered in a previous video.

  7. You can write a bestselling book using these endgame concepts great work Danya!

  8. I would love more higher level content danya!!

  9. Can you do some of your old game analysis or maybe some famous games analysis? You are a great storyteller

  10. so informative, but also your way of instructing is so friendly and straightforward. great topic and vid!

  11. Danya, I can't really express how much I appreciate these videos. Awesome work!

  12. Yo Danny wanna play bullet for a couple hours

  13. I believe it's called a "trebuchet" when the kings are fighting for opposition around opposing pawns.

  14. PLEASE carry on with the series! Best educational content on youtube

  15. For the next vid can you link the positions as some sort of pgn?

  16. Daniel Naroditsky is an absolute hero of chess.

  17. I enjoy consuming the content but tbh I’m not really likely to actually to improve at chess lol.

  18. I think a nice addition to this series would be to make the PGNs available for download. They could even be monetized as a way to support the channel.

  19. Man. I really do enjoy these videos! The last video taught me more than I’d ever learnt.

    Thanks very much!

  20. Ok when Danya said he was gonna be consistent, I did not think he meant like 2 videos in 2 days.
    Amazing content always love your work.
    Hopefully these endgame masterclass will help me get more towards 2000 rating.(I'm 1700 rated right now)
    Thanks❤️

  21. Daniel: "Brew a nice cup of coffee or tea and we'll delve in"

    Me: Yo Danya im drunk af right now bruh but im ready

  22. Best chess YouTuber getting warm up. Nice! 🤩

  23. Not only a ridiculously instructive teacher, but an entertaining one with a great sense of humor. Bravo Danya, please continue!

  24. Why is A5 the corresponding square to F5? Shouldn't it be B5? It seems like if White steps onto F5 and black had the ability to step onto A5 then white can just claim distant opposition with E5 and eventually shoulder the black king.

    This video is awesome, just want to make sure I understand 🙂

  25. GM Danya, I wake up everyday to drink sacred chess knowledge from your chalice.

    Much love from Kenya.

  26. I learned more about opposition and distant opposition.

  27. Straight into my Chess Study playlist. Appreciate all you do for the community. Cheers🎉

  28. Somebody stop that man. He wants us to study whole day everyday

  29. I’m sure I speak for everyone here when I say you’re one of the greatest teachers out there, chess or otherwise. I cannot express my gratitude enough for the amazing effort you put into these videos. There really is no more fitting nickname than “sensei”. Keep up the exemplary work and know that all of us yellow belts appreciate your passion and dedication so much!

  30. Very nice series even for the stronger viewers, thank you Danya

  31. Endgame is so hard and tricky, i guess i try to win in the middle instead

  32. You explain this in the best way possible… my brain is still melting but I have no doubt that this is the most understandable way. I should really start playing this game

  33. congrats on dodging the lawsuit. Hans let you off the hook 🤣🤣

  34. OH MY LANDS everything is on internet, organized and free. Thanks Danya
