Popular chess YouTuber Levy 'GothamChess' Rozman is science-focused esports organization BASILISK’s new Head of Chess, where his operational roles will include developing content, recruiting new players and building STEM-adjacent programming.
Rozman moves to BASILISK in good shape. His YouTube channel sits at eight million subscribers and has 5.9 billion total views in the bag, making him one of the most-watched chess creators in the world, and he still dreams of becoming the Grandmaster. Speaking exclusively to Dexerto, he explained what drew him to BASILISK: "I really like BASILISK. I like the team, I like everybody that they've signed. In many ways, it's super cool that we're kind of making nerds cool and fun. That's what I've done the last five or six years on my YouTube channel, so I'm super pumped to make content with everybody."
