Dubov's Phenomenal opening preparation leaves Nepomniachtchi clueless | World Blitz 2022

There was some tension in the air between Nepo and Dubov after Nepo played a World Championship match against Carlsen and Dubov helped the Norwegian. But that tension seems to have been resolved as you can see from the initial moments in the video where Nepo and Dubov are speaking with each other with great camaraderie.
However, over the board it's a big fight as Dubov plays the opening very quickly, while Nepo tries to figure his way. Dubov's ...Rd8! is a new move and by this point Nepo is down to a minute as compared to Dubov who hasn't gone down below 3. It's a game from which you will learn a lot not only about opening, but about attack and finishing off your opponent.

In the first place, nepo never think bad of dubov. Only karjakin that talk as if dubov was national traitor or something.

[@snarkyboojum]

Nepomniachtchi looking for feedback on Dubov's face and body language from early in the game shows he's unsure of the moves he's making in relation to Dubov. Dubov doesn't seem concerned at all. Very interesting dynamic in this game.

[@inemanja]

He was smiling through a big par of the match, I wonder what was so funny that he told to Daniil before the match started.

[@thembadube9589]

There's something about Nepo that just makes you like him as a person. No doubt he was a very hurt that Dubov helped Carlsen in that match, but he can still share a light moment with him; with a genuine smile, no less. So, in the upcoming Nepo-Ding duel I will root for ... no, I will be neutral.

[@SasukeAvenges]

I don’t get that vibe, at all. I get the vibe that he a superiority complex, like many high level chess players. Dude didn’t even arrange his pieces after the game.

[@siddhantjhaveri]

​@@SasukeAvenges I have never seen him rearrange pieces after any game. I don't see how that is a problem. The players are not obliged to arrange pieces. It's their choice whether they want to do it or not.

I feel the only Player in our generation who can really challenge Magnus for the World championship, Due to the fact that he helped Magnus During his World Championship Match.. Unless, Of course Excluding the emerging Youngsters.

[@ilikefrogs4291]

Dubov is a great player and my favourite living player. however, there is no way he could take the title from magnus.

[@SeoFam01]

LMAO stop dreaming, Dubov is a very creative player. But he is light years behind Magnus. Not to mentions, Magnus had a team in the WC prep.

[@hdmotivated]

Also not to mention dubov style is less effective in classical...

[@hunterhunter5998]

Magnus vacated his title but even if he didn't, stylistically you need someone who's very gifted with tactical motifs and geometry to beat him (that's where Magnus makes the most mistakes). Dubov has that but I'm not sure his opening repertoire is disciplined enough for long time controls. Like you said, there are a few teenagers coming up who have the style and repertoire to potentially beat Magnus but they need time and experience before they're ready for a world championship match (iirc youngest world champion was Kasparov at 22/23)

[@vegapunk172]

[@barnabasszabolcs8708]

@3:40 Qf3 would've sidestepped the bind by the rook and held the position. Instead, Nepo rerouted Dubov's bishop to a better diagonal

[@ramlall56]
