    I’ve always liked and admired Magnus, but never truly loved his playing style. Until this past year. Now he’s become an otherworldly magician. It’s like his old self has died since abdicating the crown, and he’s been reborn. Magnus the Grey is now Magnus the White. (Gandalf reference.)
  • After years of analyzation, Ive come to the conclusion that Magnus Carlsen is good at chess.
  • "And the players agreed to a draw." I nearly had a heart attack. Well done.
  • When I played chess for the first time, this was my opening move. You could say I was a chess prodigy

    ...I nearly had a heart attack when you said they agreed a draw 😆
  • @Horsa-sr8oz
    Magnus has put a lot of life back into chess.
  • @ColinUdoh
    “Agreed to a draw” I damn near jumped into the screen to start throwing hands! You got me good!
  • @EV0ACE
    This was amazing to watch.. just unreal. Magnus is still the cutting edge.. he is a certified prodigy and cemented as a legend maybe THE Legend
  • It's one thing doing something like this in a blitz game. It's another thing entirely doing this to a very strong grandmaster in a tournament for it to be analyzed by computers and YouTubers, and come out flawlessly.

    The sickest part of that three-way fork is that you don’t even have to take the queen. It’s kg6 and then M2 with pawns after that.
  • "for a while I thought we were even, but I'm royally forked now and will just resign" -Reza probably.
  • You nailed it @9:49 and I was stunned and shocked for a few seconds. ROFL! Alireza was constantly slapped by Magnus. What a game!
  • Magnus is never late. He arrives precisely when he means to.
  • @jaredp1516
    my goodness that final move was insane, took an undefended pawn, forked the rook and queen AND mated u, bro treated him like he never played a game of chess in his life...
  • @1977TheHammer
    The fork isn't the issue... it's the mate in 2 that ended the game. If black doesn't resign, he is forced into: 1... Kg6 (forced). 2. h5+, Rxh5 (forced). 3. g4xR#.

    We saw this with Bobby Fischer getting bored with studying opening lines and coming up with random chess. Ironically, I think chess engines right now help Magnus to come up with completely new opening lines and ideas that are either 1) not too bad and/or 2) hard to punish for humans. As a viewer, it's great that chess is back to being unpredictable. I hate watching 20 moves of opening theory hoping someone makes a tiny mistake somewhere so that the game doesn't result in a draw.
  • @JS_Precision
    I understand Magnus critique against modern chess. I think all spectators want chess to be about skill and imagination, not only memorizing databases. Memorization has a place of course, but this kind of chess is more entertaining.
  • Great recap👍! What's interesting to me is that people wonder about Magnus's capabilities when he performs poorly (like Qatar). But he's got nothing to prove with his accomplishments. He now plays for the sport. Plus, he (like so many of the old school players) are up against a new generation bred on powerful chess engines. It seems like he's adapting to the change. Trying new things. Still able to show why his mastery with results like this.
  • I just screamed WHAT! after he said the players agreed to a draw
  • This is what I like about Magnus. He will play anything and get away with it.
