any chess fans read that daniel naroditsky just passed away?
yeah Charlotte chess center (his local center) announced it.
probably has something to do with his mental breakdown on stream last time.
May he rest in peace
he had a mental breakdown on stream? do you know any details about what happened or did you just read it?

i found the vod of his last stream but its really hard to watch. some commenter said that he was drinking liquor and was progressively getting more drunk. he starts out normal but in the second half he really started to lose it.
apparently people said that he looked very bad and some breakdown in his last stream 😞
yep he was mumbling russian and generally looking tired. idk if kramnik had anything to do with this but he certainly did not help
sadly, i think it may have been due to suicide
also what did kramnik, seeing alot of posts with him too
I'm not entirely sure but I think kramnik has been harassing Santa for quite some time now, accusing him of cheating. standard kramnik stuff but maybe it finally got to him
update: kramnik tweeted "I told you so" regarding danya's passing
what a piece of shit
Atleast nemo called him out for his shit
I expect other ims and gms to do the same
what the fuck did he actually?
what a fucking pathetic excuse of a human being. really.
RIP
I know nothing about chess but I always remembered his coaching allowed moistcr1tikal to checkmate xqc in 4 moves
bro was genuinely a nice dude, you could just tell by watching him for like a minute. rip
rip man danya was the best teacher in chess. his speeds run videos are so interesting and informative. Fuck kramnik. False accusations from a deranged old man is probably what pushed him to suicide.
His last stream was so hard to watch
Kramnik should be banished from the chess community
I'll miss Danya and he helped me with opening prep at times. I enjoyed his videos. Also fuck Kramnik.
