Just to be devil’s advocate here, but is it possible that the reason few games are lost in the opening is that most of us do spend a lot of time on that phase of the game and the studying is paying off.
@mattwilliams4265

Yeah he just drew sort of the wrong conclusion. The openings are easy to memorize and most people do memorize a handful and they’re usually the most common openings so there’s just fewer mistakes. If you don’t know your openings you’re gonna get into trouble quite quickly especially against traps in common openings

If anyone else is confused by Kf8 at 17:50 - 19:00: Both Ne7 and Be7 are at least as good as Kf8. I think Nelson forgot to enable castling rights when analyzing the position, or he forgot to mention that black previously has lost castling rights.

Hey Nelson! Really enjoy your videos. I have to say I’m guilty of #3 and I find that sometimes I have in my head a move (like castling) and I don’t even look at where my opponent moved before making my move. I also can’t tell you how many times I’ve failed a puzzle because I wasn’t thinking of the easy capture (#4 in the video).

13:56 I think we discovered a hybrid of two tactics which I'll call "Discovered Defense" for Discovered Attack and Indirect Defense. The name is also fitting because this type of defense would need to be discovered as both a discovered attack and a defense, despite the moved piece being in danger, and as per Levy a.k.a. GothamChess, "danger levels".

In my opinion - btw awesome video - players understand chess properly at a level of about 1500. That's when you stop being a total noob at chess. And my point is supported by 1200 making such knight move mistakes. They just dont understand that the knight can move there which means they dont understand the game fully. Dont overrate 1200. It's a very noob level. 1500 is about where noob ends and average/normal player begins. Some KZitemrs say it's a big achievement to get there but no, that's where playing actual chess begins.

Thank you for your excellent videos. After watching your videos, I went on a winning streak. I am now at almost a 60%-win rate. In the last 5 games, I have won 4 and only lost to a player with a significantly higher ELO. I know that eventually I will knock out when I start playing people with greater talent than myself but at least I am now playing up to my natural talent instead of losing for stupid reasons.

16:12 if the white knight moves black check mates. Then once white castled things changed so much. Now if the white knight moves, depending on what black does, white has some checkmate possibilities of his own! Wild how one move can totally change the whole situation.

I don't fully agree with you on openings. Keep in mind your data is based on a chess engine stronger than any human in the world. Stockfish is saying "I could play that opening that way and be OK". As Magnus and the banned opening shows us, you can absolutely mess around in the opening and still be fine if you are a strong master. It doesn't mean a weaker player could play that opening and be OK. In other words, stockfish might not call it a blunder or mistake, but it's creating critical lines or ideas in the middle game that a lower rated player absolutely will screw up.
