Magnus been winning every tournament since he was born LOL

[@daviddurbin7682]

Demon steed trophy. Needs to be kept at Denver Airport

[@libilinbulibuli]

as much as i would like to force a draw against hikaru he will beat the cr4p out of me

[@abdelkaderyassine2908]

I'm sure Magnus can't wait to come back home to show his friends at the bar and the library this beautiful trophy!!!

[@zainquadri1206]

Dr. Drunkenstein doesn't go to the bar... He has brought the bar home... Most of the time he's drunk as a skunk and the times he's not, he's drunk as a bishop in a cathedral on a Sunday...

"The hardest move to find is always with a magnificent demon steed back" - Ivanchuk, maybe

[@SylarTheBest]

😂😂😂

[@samhall8513]

"Look at this. Absolutely beautiful. It’s supposed to be a chess night, I believe, but it’s like some Dark Souls magnificent demon steed. Who would not want that in their cabinet? I’m pretty sure Magnus has a separate property just to keep all of his trophies, but this is the one you don’t want to miss out on because you wanted to beat Hikaru." -ACC

[@tychoMX]

What a fun idea for a chess tournament. Hopefully they'll keep releasing the rest of the pieces in the same theme as trophies.

[@IngieKerr]

"Magnus, you look like you're still drunk. Heavy night?" "Yeah, if you can put it down over there for me, that'd be great"

[@LukeLongboneOfficial]

I saw a video once from a few years ago where Magnus said that he would have a drinks or two before playing in big games so he could loosen up.

[@mrpinguimninja]

The excitment in Agad's voice when he said "dark soulslike demon steed" lmao

[@davidanderson_surrey_bc]

The trophy is hermetically sealed. If that bulletproof plexiglass ever breaks, the horse is going to find its three friends and start the Apocalypse.

[@ignacio1085]

why do i always think these 2 would only give their best in a friendly bar match with a couple of beers

[@joykenn9772]

Hikaru nearly always loses to Magnus. It's a surprise when he draws and a Miracle when he wins😂

[@nedmerrill5705]

You build a separate room just to hold the trophy.

[@Mantose262]

I think if I got a trophy like that it would go on my coffee table. To make sure everyone sees it and talks about it.

[@ikeapencil7680]

And someone accidentally drops it from the coffee table

[@DemolitionManDemolishes]

Not sure if Magnus took the trophy, or the trophy took him.

[@black350Z]

"The position is now objectively winning for Magnus." A statement repeated more than almost any other about MC games.

[@crazylogic7015]

Hot take: This event was quite overrated. Even though it was the first time, the number of rounds combined with the lack of knowledge about the position amongst the players made it boring. Vishy was out of theory in just 2 moves lol.

[@grcfalcon]

This trophy looks like an electrocuted horsy.

#suggestion Ediz Gurel vs Haik Martirosyan Round 8 Sharjah Masters was a pretty cool king hunt :)

[@michaelmassaro4375]

They should include more competitors in this event maybe six or eight total and invite the big name GMs Nordibek Wei Yi Pragg etc Magnus and Hikaru seemed to enjoy the event a lot Hikaru saying it’s been his favorite event in years I’m sure we will see more it

[@markrobertson3054]

No. Because the event was continent fight. Africa - amin, 7 time african champion. Europe - magnus America ( south+north ) - hikaru 5 time us champ Asia - anand , 5 time world champ. Pragg or others dont have the criteria

[@davidgatten1033]

In Magnus's defense, I too would force a draw against Hikaru, given the opportunity 😂😂

[@anthonyschlott916]

Specially if the prize is a Trophy of a dark souls demon steed once ridden by Ornstein in his last stand against the black dragon.

[@viccietudaye370]

"the position is objectively winning for Magnus" as all positions are...

[@Jonathan-ec9pp]

Did you change the title about the trophy? Why? what happened?

[@TW-iu9zy]

[@xethnyrrow]

Antonio, how could you miss calling that trophy a, "MONSTER KNIGHT?!"

[@krystian19619]

Magnus simply passed this game, I mean chess. It is too hard to invent a format in which he is not a champion.

[@chichoskruch21]

bro the trophy is Ludwig the Accursed

[@anthonyschlott916]

Omg I FORGOT ABOUT LUDWIG!!!! XD

[@KevinFitzMauriceEverett]

Yes, I like the idea of playing from a starting position in an old game. It provides new information and analysis.

[@samjones1949]

That is one awesome trophy! I don't fault Mangus!

[@Fauxcault_]

This was a great tournament, albeit super exclusive with a small player pool. I really think that the chess world in general is going out of its way to really offer more and more variety (960 tour possibly coming up, etc.) to keep Magnus interested as they know there is probably no way he is going to play 4-6 classical chess tournaments a year anymore and with poor Ding hating being WC (from what I can tell) they really need Magnus to stay involved in chess overall. Seems like it has worked out pretty well imo as it has been a solid year of entertaining chess since the WC match.

[@boxingjerapah]

After Rh8, why not ... Qc5 ?

[@bazejgonsiorczyk3871]

Forcing a draw is lame, magnus lost for me

[@softbread3891]

But for you losing is not lame

[@bazejgonsiorczyk3871]

@@softbread3891 what? this was equal position if he is better he can win but he decided to not play anymore

[@physicscogitor6192]

I find this chess variant tournament a great idea. I like the very old games even more, so the Steinitz game in this tournament. Imagine a famous Morphy-Anderson game. Some of their games had enough rigour to start from, I think. Some of the most famous games ever (Evergreen, Immortal, the Opera game) are probably lost within the first few moves and therefore not suitable but Morphy-Anderson was probably not decided within the first few moves, even by today's standards.

[@cloudforest4087]

Trophy design should be spectacular.

[@AlexusMagnum]

Magnus and Hikaru are the best chess couple ever!

[@dravey9128]

"Darksouls like demon stead" ❤

[@hitenrelo00]

First one first time

[@markrobertson3054]

Gg magnus the GOAT! Yet another tournament won.

[@elpollolocoman119]

I would have crushed Hikrau with that position, it would have made winning that trophy even at much more immaculate. If they are forced to play positions of the past, ofc I like it. So many positions to consider, from Tal's positions, Morphy's positions, to Fischer's positions. Of course we can even consider positions in the games between the engines, hahaha. Like Stockfish vs Alpha zero.

[@pineapplesareyummy6352]

I really like the concept of the Casablanca Tournament - revisiting great games of the past, with interesting starting positions very different from the stale standard openings that all serious chess players have memorised out to move X. All that is necessary is choose an interesting game from the past, at a point where the computer evaluation is about equal for both players. I note that this is in rapid time format. But as most of the games were from Classical tournaments, it might be even better if the time format was Classical.

[@anthonyschlott916]

Agree to disagree. I think classical should be considered less and less personally.

[@tomhejda6450]

Thanks for your videos. Just please, the camera movement seems distracting to me (just raising it here in case if was distracting to others as well). So just a #suggestion whether you want to switch that off? :)

[@ansakhadeo]

@agadmator would you like to cover Kasporov vs Karpov World chess championship match?

That's literally the ugliest trophy I've seen 😂

[@miserere_me9168]

13:53 i wouldnt force a draw agianst hikaru. i have integrity ... also i would simple not be able to achieve anything else than defeat.

[@roverdover4449]

How did they get so many top players to come play a tournament of old games? I mean, money, I guess, but then how did they get so much money for a tournament of old games?

[@Littledunc1]

How many moves did they play after they got the position? they didn't have much to work with.

[@SamuelPearlman]

Magnificent Demon Steeds are tricky bastards...

So how are the positions selected? And do the players get and time to think about the position before the game?

[@michaelrose1927]

Can someone please explain how they revist past games? Eg Antonio talks about the womens match. Do the players play the same first 5 moves or what

[@jrd33]

The organizers set up the position reached in the historic game and then the players play from that point. They don't know the position in advance.

[@jessejordache1869]

The Rauzer was the variation I chose to get my feet wet in the Sicilian. I call this the "house" variation, because Black doesn't castle, but has a little house of pawns in the center, and all the "and this is what's played nowadays" are all shocks to me. Theory has moved a lot in twenty years I suppose.

[@josephbloggss7286]
