who is the best chess streamer

May 6 2025

Personally I like Levy Rozman (Gotham Chess) , but there are many good streamers/coaches on YouTube. Hanging Pawns is good, remote chess academy, arturs neiksans, chess vibes, chess wisdom (mainly analysis of classical games) it depends what you want from a stream, entertainment, tuition?

Hello 👋🤗

I think Levi and Hakaru are equally on level however I do not approve when streamers use ordinary chess players games as examples and in doing so is undermining them!?

I agree that Levy's 'guess the elo' can be undermining to lower rated players, who need encouragement, not mockery . However, to my knowledge, Levy asks permission from those players to analyse their games on his channel, so if they consent to it, I guess it's fair enough.
