Hello there! My name is Celine, and I am an American Woman Candidate Master. I have been playing for fun since I was 5 years old, but I started competitively at the age of 8. The journey has been long, but I cherish every moment, from start to finish. Win or learn, it counts. I live on earth. (My most heartfelt and deepest condolences to Danya’s family. On October 19th, 2025 Chess Grandmaster Daniel Naroditsky passed away from a now known cause. He was a former youth chess champion and great streamer. He helped many with chess and made many people’s day better, including mine. He was an amazing young man, the kind who will be there when you need him. Life is very unfair. I cannot believe he is gone. A guy like this was gone too soon.)

We all miss Danya and I know you miss him too. I’d like to let your know your not the only one who misses him.

Slimy slime..

If I can give the viewer one piece of advice, practice visualization. It’s literally what allows calculation, and it’ll be a thousand times easier to calculate during your games if your good at it. But once again, you should still solve difficult problems for the execution. It’s the biggest 10 on a scale of how useful it is.

Fun fact: If you scream at the top of your lungs at 3 am and blast this song on your house speakers at full volume, you will be severely… punished by a mysterious entity called “mom”
