From 100 to 2600: My First Ever Educational Chess Speedrun in Honor of My Friend Daniel Naroditsky

In my first-ever speedrun, I climb from rock-bottom 100 rating to my all-time high of 2600 in Blitz on chess.com, live-commentating every move and breaking down beginner-to-intermediate tactics and strategy for players under 2000. Dedicated to my friend Dania (RIP), this is raw, practical chess lessons straight from my Russian Chess School: no openings traps, just smart development, center control, and punishing blunders. Watch me dismantle 25 games, collect wild checkmates (queen promo in the opening?!), and roast pawn-only disasters. Can I hit peak rating without losing my voice? Spoiler: It's hilarious, humiliating, and hugely educational. 0:00 Intro 1:08 Game 1-5: 100-150 Rating (Pawn Blunders & Free Knights) 26:30 Game 6-10: Climbing Chaos (En Passant & Queen Overextensions) 49:20 Game 11-15: 200+ Resistance (Solid Openings) 01:14:10 Game 16-25: Pushing to 300 (Forks & No-Castling Knightmares) 01:27:30 Russian Chess School Promo & Wrap-Up 01:31:18 Outro Loved the tactics breakdowns or want more speedruns (faster/slower time controls)?!
