Levy is the greatest chess player to never become GM

@Deep_Nath_

0:57 Yes Levy. I do. I love your these historic type of videos. I know they probably don't perform as good as the other videos, but I request you to keep making such videos. Good Job coach sir.

@brycepeddicord6763

I know these don't make as much money on views so here. Please keep making them!!! It's my favorite content on YouTube

@Enthusiast_09r

Man, I don’t usually comment, but I have to show appreciation for a historic video, they don’t get that much views, but they are forever in my heart, Tal’s video and Nezhmedinov are still my favorite.
Ideas: Steinitz and his games and of course Paul Morphy
Thx again for making those

@Hashir-j2s

Love these history chess videos levy keep 'em coming. Wishing you the best of luck for the grandmaster journey keep pushing man such an inspiration.

@debaryatarafdar7193

Man, I seriously hope Levy makes more videos like this. It's always refreshing to see the old school style of chess. Thanks levy !

@Kasartigan

Hi Levy,
Extremely happy to see the historical content make a return! Other commenters have already highlighted Keres and Rubinstein, who both deserve videos. There's also David Bronstein who came closer than anyone else to becoming world champion in 1951 when he drew the title match with Mikhail Botvinnik 12-12 (and lost bc the rules at the time said the champion would retain the title in the event of a draw). Also, when you mentioned 1978 I was reminded that that was the year Nona Gaprindashvili became the first ever woman to attain the GM title. I think that would be a historically important video to make. So there's at least a few more ideas to keep this series going!

@gibrilbah1361

0:52 Yes! We want more historical deep dives

@ranady-y8k

Commenting so the algorithm favors Levy’s historical content so he’s incentivized to make more of this

@jesseedge9875

Personally I love these videos of historical players, although I am 22 I have only been playing for a little over 2 years now so I don’t know much of the history. One player I first heard of in the video “king ding and the deep dark forest of chess” is Paul keres who was deemed “the eternal second” from the information I heard in the video he got second in 4 candidate tournaments and was called the greatest player to never compete in a world championship match. If you made a video on him it would make me extremely happy.

@ianplaysgames4298

Really disappointed that historical videos doesn't do well in algorithm. I really love videos like this, because it makes chess look very much alive, with lots of great people in it.

I would like you to cover a grandmaster, Bent Larsen, who was ahead of his time, playing 1.g3 as white, and also having a good win-rate throughout his career.

Thank you for the videos, Levy! Keep it up!

@RompeReal

7:30 there is a whole movie about it. It's called «Чемпион мира» ("The world champion") and it was released in 2021

@Euthanasia-rc1pm

Rubinstein definitely deserves a video too. I'm definitely forgetting some of the old Masters that weren't World Champion but were around that level.

@joshadkins3748

I never comment, but these historical videos ,are by far, the best chess content on all of YouTube bar none. 
The Magnus winning his first championships, Kasparov vs Karpov, Chess toilet cheating scandal, the Insane 1978 championship, Sultan Kahn, Kasparov vs the World, and of course the  Fischer vs Spassky, and Fischer’s game of the century. 
If you are new to this channel, and enjoy the history of the game, Levy’s Chess History playlist is literally the best possible resource for that info that I’ve found anywhere.

@CindyGlover-d9c

7:54  'Champion of the world' (Чемпион Мирa) is a film on the Karpov-Korchnoi match that was made in 2021 by Alexey Sidorov.  One of the greatest Russian performers of the modern era, Konstantin Khabensky, plays Korchnoi in the film, while Ivan Yankovsky plays Karpov.

@2MAoo

26:44 wow , is that a new record?!!!?

@ifk_razor

I love this style of video. I never heard of Korchnoi until now. He sounds, and I now know he’s a legend. I don’t play chess personally, but I love watching the legends, prodigies, and geniuses of the game being brought forth by Levy. It makes the game sound dynamic and very interesting. How styles clash and how stars are born. Love it. W video, Levy.

@aravpipada6978

Another mention for a great player to never be champion is Topalov. Dude was 2800+ at his peak and he played against so many other champions

@Boris_Dyadyora

7:31
Actually, there is a russian movie about this match, called "World champion" (2021)

@StrayScot

I love this historical content, these old masters are so interesting, and the stories are unreal. Thanks for making this!
