    This is why Hess and Naroditsky are my favourite commentary duo. They both, along with Levy, create such a HYPE atmosphere in these time crunches. Really makes for a brilliant viewer experience. Edit: no shade at any of the commentators I didn't mention above!
  • @TheWizardsOfOz
    The fact that Magnus blundered the bishop anyway made it even more funny. Great minds think alike. ๐Ÿ˜„

    6:39 they said โ€˜what a moveโ€™ in perfect sync๐Ÿ˜‚

    Nihal defeated Anish and Ding and gave Hikaru a run for his money . But the highlight was definitely the final when the two titans of chess fought evenly matched with Hikaru a shade better .

    GM Hess & Naroditsky are the GM's of Chess Casting. No offense so many GM's are TOTAL DUD when it comes to casting but these two are just on another level. It doesn't hurt the fact that're both native English speakers.

  • @V_ChessGuy
    Hess and Naroditsky saying "what a move" at the EXACT same time lol
  • @magiklam2991
    Nihal def has the potential to be the next best speed chess player, totally stoked to see his future developments.
  • @kaivalyashah
    Should have included that Nihal resigned the next game vs Ding after the disconnect
  • @DiMono
    I watched a lot of this live, and it was so exciting.
  • @FarSunHan
    The Nihal trick was so smooth and smart that i noticed it when Hess and Naroditsky screamed.
