I think his soul may partly be in that game. I discovered some of his videos and immensely enjoyed his commentary and beginner friendly game analyses and was very sad as I found out three days later that he passed.

I thought about sticking a sticker onto the side with “RIP Danya 2025-10-20” but I think I want to engrave it. I have a dremel and a plotter ready, so I could design a fallen chess piece and said words next to it. Which chess piece would you use? I’d say the king might be a bit too cheesy.

What chess piece did Danya value the most? Which did he blunder the most?

Should I rather donate to his family’s foundation or a local chess club?
