In the press conference Vishy interviewed Arjun and found out that Arjun was within his prep for 32 moves!

[@Corteum]

Giri would be proud. But Capablanca would be like "To hell with prep. I'm going to the cabaret!"

[@devmehta7406]

Aasan bhasha mei bole toh ratt li thi chess🌝

[@blinddig7525]

40 moves of prep is INSANE well done to arjun

[@honkymonky7033]

Arjun is such a strong and elegant player, bright future for him

After seeing gotham"s analysis had to come here

Arjun's match against Fabi has him in beast mode form. 😍😍

[@hsemarubab]

02:45 Arjun has 18 min 25 sec.. Nihal has 10 sec in a 15 min format match 😂

[@nav90s14]

Preparation

[@mustafa6543]

3:03 just look at it, Arjun has 17+ minutes & nihal is down to 5 seconds

[@codeengineer10]

Arjun had prepared the line till end for shak in previous game .., but got to play t5ge variation here ..

[@YashSharma-cf6gf]

That move Rc1 was so absurd that it took Nihal 8 mins to figure out what's next.......!🥶

[@vasudev16180]

At 1:45 Nihal offered a draw 😊

[@hsemarubab]

Good observation 👍

[@SMJeet-wh4wp]

Bad luck nihal! He was playing Against 32 prepared moves

[@fairtrue4557]

Arjun Erigaisi and Gukesh the best talents

[@BaddKarmaa]

That was brilliant sacrifice from Erigasi.

[@nikmat]

Nihal fell deep into his prep, 😂

[@Corteum]

Fell? He almost forgot about time altogether! Entered into a state of pure timelessness. The ancient yogi's of indian would be impressed. 😂

[@akshitjohry113]

Nihal may have been able to get something out of this but Arjun was basically stockfish, time pressure was too much. GGs to both though

[@thushanschannel]

Great

[@TrishanthDiwate]

that knight sack was amazing

[@roiatiya4303]

Just prep

[@darnokodarnoko5563]

Yes it means the prep was amazing

[@VARMOT123]

Arjun was in God mode . Prep till 30 moves . What the actual f**k lol

[@roiatiya4303]

34*

[@evanyurko3640]

He showed a disgusting line after the game up to 43 moves too. Actually insane

[@isoentro10]

only Brahmastra to defeat Nihal. 🌚

[@shivasai4237]

Beast mode..... That much prepared??

[@laxmanbafna4178]

yes

[@Kira7edit]

what the hell its insane 40 moves !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! prep arjun wayy too good

[@maverickjk]

When Nihal knew he won the tourney already, he didn't give his best

[@VARMOT123]

Nah he fell for Arjun's prep on move 30 which is insane

[@satyammanna2375]

@@VARMOT123 on move 30 or till move 30..??

[@mr.folabibabatunde6686]

@@VARMOT123 well nihal is known for his lack of opening preperations. If you can get him the opening that's the best thing becoz as the game goes on he's harder to defeat

[@rachit6366]

@@mr.folabibabatunde6686 Lack of opening preparation?😂 Bro, how do you reach 2600 with that? If you're talking about playing sidelines? Maybe. But that requires a specific preparation too.

[@sasi_kumar96]

Nice coverdrive

[@ytboxeviltwin4081]

Everybody loves Nihal.

[@cooloutac]

Oh I see nihal was playing the Gucci piano dragon defense lol

[@nareshkumar-gw1fy]

Kya title hai

[@Chess_Bruh]

Arjun Op

[@warriorgaming3356]

At last why nihal didn't push pawn to protect his knight? Explain plz if anyone

[@sud9741]

But the pawn will be attacked in the next move. And will reach a similar ending

Who won XD ??

[@MagnusFAN]

Nihal won the tournament

[@gnanaprakash690]

arjun is best

[@AhirAshokGojiya]

Its "Brahmastra". Plz correct the tittle of this video. Half Knowledge is most dengerous.

When is the World Rapid Championship tournament?

[@abhishekjoseph4729]

Lol imagine if arjun got forked with 13 mins left, he would quit chess xD

[@kerosamirgd]

Sec 6:13 Nihal has the opportunity to fork the rock and the queen but he didn't see it

[@giovannimartin3957]

He didn't, there was a pin That's why he moved his back and then why Arjun moved his king up

[@kerosamirgd]

@@giovannimartin3957 yes you are right 👍

[@randomsolver7273]

This does not look good for the future of the game. When someone can prep up to 40 moves with the help of computers, Top level chess might never have the excitement it did in the romantic era

[@lawbybhargav4986]

As long as piece sacrifices keep coming, we dont need to worry
