Daniil DUBOV: comeback to the top, Magnus and Fabi

[@draxiteskr]

i see dubov i click. def one of the best players to watch alongside rapport.

[@ciprianchirilov1039]

Took the words out of my mouth

[@nov3m472]

or how kramnik would call him, richard report

[@tyrellwreleck4226]

He still look like he's 17

[@pakchess69]

He has one of the best personalities in the chess world

[@koustavdas4587]

Exactly Rapport & Dubov the best

[@adomaskuzinas2137]

17:10 Dubovs fitness routine: "in summer i go outside and find a bar, thats it" My fitness routine is exactly the same, its just a different kind of bar

[@escobaradrian6876]

i actually thoug he said that, i forgot about calistenia

[@gacoss2739]

lmao

[@IdaBayiKeciL]

...

[@omarbenjannet6671]

Chocolate bar ?

[@thenamelessking375]

You do it outside??

[@MueedQadri]

It is a shame that Daniel has been away from the chess scene mostly because of the war, he is definitely one of the most talented attackers, which is the kind of player you need to be to beat Magnus.

[@davidd9478]

You mean the Russian invasion, right? Let's call it what it is...

[@怪人-b1x]

it's not only about attacking, he also got the nerves of steel. Like Wei Yi is a great attacker, but he chokes a lot in important moments esp against Magnus

[@varimatra2088]

I am a bit confused how him the war affects his hability to go and play chess

[@anotherelvis]

He is top 36 in the world.

[@MichaelSt]

@@varimatra2088I believe there are sanctions on Russian chess players, they have some restrictions with getting visas and maybe other stuff too.

[@GigaShiv]

This guy is like the modern Tal of chess but talks like a mafia

[@vcliburn]

I was thinking basically the same thing, but I couldn’t put my finger on it until you said it! He also acts and carries himself in s very “street wise” and nonchalant manner…not afraid or intimidated by anyone.

[@tvrskkngdm2333]

​@vcliburn it does some strange props to my favorite gm but let me assure the way he talks does not fit to stand up guys with Russian blood wherever in the world. On behalf of those people. Street-wise. Well. May be.

[@ParanoidBishop]

Refreshing to hear a top chess player being so candid, he's very endearing.

[@Jack-x8v]

Nah he was talking out his ass the entire time and other chess gms agree.

[@beltenebrosgr1904]

Dubov is a rock star in chess, a cool guy with a chin like Alex Turner and a reason to watch chess. And above all, an interesting guy. What's not to like?

[@faouzielgrari3047]

great podcast! thank u for making it in english

[@GamutoMotivation248]

You are the best chess podcaster. THE INSIGHTS ARE TREMENDOUS. I would request you to never stop, and keep going and growing!

[@MustreaderChess]

Thanks a lot! I will try!

Love Dubov, very happy to learn that he is working hard on his chess. Keep it up Daniil! 💪🏼🙌🏼

[@8xmatch]

What an Intro! Greg has been developed himself a lot im proud of him and im getting motivated from him.

[@shvm.]

bro got dubov on the podcast LETSGOOO

[@johanath]

Daniil remains my favourite player, even over those higher rated, because of his originality, candour and humour. I really wish him all the best in his quest to become even stronger.

[@FongYukYu]

Omg, I'm so excited!! 🎉 Daniil's Russian pod has been on my to-watch list forever, but it's a challenge to find time to *read* the subtitles vs passively listening to the pod in the background. Already can't wait for the next episode

[@Phymacss]

Great editing! Your videos keep getting better!

[@ddok907]

Amazing seeing Daniil on this podcast!! Love it! :D

[@evilsdouble]

Thanks for hosting the delightful guest, will be watching again soon

[@megafedya1]

Dubov is a follower of Mikhail Tal's work.

[@irfansubekti8686]

thanks for bringing dubov! he's one of the first player that motivate me to play attacking chess!

[@bernardobila4336]

The most entertaining player. We love you Dubov. ♥️

[@linitwee1906]

Recently got into Chess - very much enjoying your informative and in-depth interviews. Great to see multiple perspectives from GMs across many topics. Cheers!

[@MustreaderChess]

Welcome aboard!

[@jordan22031991]

One of the most creative players in chess to walk on earth !! cheers for making this in english

[@xqs329]

The point about Fabiano is really true....Sometimes all it takes an early start and discipline ..

[@jamesli2545]

Its cope lol.

[@Lneoard]

Daniil Dubov is the Mikhail Tal of our time

[@tahir2443]

you are providing the chess best content right now, big fan!!

[@tonyss2416]

Tell Dubov to make more videos, big following absolutely everywhere...

[@asisomosfan666]

Really cool podcast! I also like the setup, it sounds and looks great.

[@HansWurst-k3q]

Great interview! Dubov is a very interesting player to listen to - surely most viewers won't agree with everything he said, but it's very thought-provoking, which is always a good thing. And as a side note: His laid-back way of sitting in that chair might be unique among top chess professionals 🙂

[@wernerschacht7642]

Great guy, saw recently a video of him, where he showed the power of his arms - this guy is physically much stronger than you think - he did pull - ups with one hand, cool guy

[@jimmybarroso6082]

Amazing content, Greg.

[@georgexm2032]

Dubov is my fav player. Great guy and probably an INTP personality type.

[@vidnyansiddamshetty8138]

Irrespective of results, I think Dubov plays very fearless and creative chess among top players.

[@its.not.]

Great interview and questions🤝💯 and those little edits 😂❤ keep up

[@FongYukYu]

22:16 If you beat Ding or not, it's not that big of a deal... I mean, you could do that. It's better than *not* beating Ding. 💀 I didn't know Daniil was so funny! I need to watch more of his interviews now

He is a very genuine guy. I like him!

[@Luca-yb4sh]

Dubov's interviews are always interesting.

[@mrmarkstv6585]

I wonder how strong would Dubov be if he worked on chess as hard as Kasparov or Fischer

[@jagdishchaudhary1833]

That is with everybody, even you and me, for what if, like Qs. It looked to me that he is one of those guys who gets some initial success but then is not dedicated, hardworking, and self-proclaimed genius. He looked very arrogant and lazy, who didn't achieve anything substantial apart from winning one or two tournaments here and there. don't be like him.

[@qwert28077]

​@@jagdishchaudhary1833he's a super gm. No way he's lazy lol

[@RaptureReady2025]

Dubov one of my favourite players 🎉

[@bennettgibson3738]

Appreciate the time stamps :)

[@Zzz-9t]

i finished it without even realizing it. It probably because you and dubov combo was great

[@FongYukYu]

21:21 👀 Oo... I didn't know Daniil admires Fabi! I listen to C^2, but I feel like Fabi escapes most of the chess discourse bc Magnus is so dominant and there's so many big personalities like Hikaru, the whole Indian squad, Hans...

[@chillywilly314]

great podcast! what a treat

[@Monarca-chess]

Dubov is a legend

[@xxNarcissus]

This guy is underrated

[@gacoss2739]

Seems like a very down to earth guy and I think he's on the money. Practice, and information that's been sucked up one way or another is what one needs to make seemingly original brilliant art on the board such as Dubov is known for.

[@provjerenijebac888]

[@ganesankrishnamurthy8658]

Smooth and confident❤

[@Moosbrugger22]

Great interview. Brazilian greetings.

[@markdstump]

What Daniil is saying around the 14 min mark is what happens to me when I see and old movie or show that I don't consciously remember seeing... It feels like I'm guessing at the ending, or figuring it out, but I'm so good at it that I suspect my feelings and thoughts are really the shadow of memory.

[@pankajjoshi3192]

Dubov is always refreshing just like his opening ideas. Great to listen his little bit controversial takes.😀

[@dmaxpr]

Dubov, one of the greatest ever!

Great player and great person from an ethical standpoint

[@madting2984]

Many people here are mad about the way Dubov talks about the new indian school of chess, however it’s very obvious he’s lamenting about something that’s beyond the individual players lol. Dubov is talking about the issue of how computers have revolutionised the game of chess, particularly sucking out the creative and brilliant aspects of it, making it instead a game of memory and study. He talks about young indian players a lot because they are the best representatives of this newer approach to chess. Sure, the way he express himself is very blunt, but that’s the russian style. He’s not wrong in saying that the new chess meta is vomiting as many top engine moves in every line you decide to play as you can remember.

[@adityapacharne5688]

Well womp womp I guess change is the only constant. Great companies collapsed because they couldn't keep up with the change.

[@madting2984]

@@adityapacharne5688 What you said doesn’t really make sense in the context. It’s not like Dubov is talking about not wanting to adapt, he even explained how his new approach is exactly the same as that of the new generation of indian players. He’s just lamenting how this change is ruining and will ruin chess in the long run, and even predicting the paths that chess will have to take in the future to not be a boring game of memorisation. No one here is talking about refuting change, the topic was always how this change is effectively ruining the game.

[@VikrantMalvankar]

What nonsense are you talking, Gukesh never used engine in his formative years..... he has an amazing intuitive ability. His opening repertoire was very limited. I am sure, he is way more talented naturally than your puppet Magnus. Your guy is just salty that Indians are taking over the Russian dominance. Basially US just has Hans, the rest are just borrowed players from Japan, Italy, Armenia and even Indonesia

[@Minerva6699]

Gukesh is nowhere near the talent of Magnus ​@@VikrantMalvankar

[@_Nosk2196_]

​​@@Minerva6699Gukesh achieved more compared to Magnus around the same age. Not saying Gukesh is better but by achievements he is

[@RealityCheck1]

He destroyed Magnus in 7 moves.

[@arvindradhakrishnan8270]

Very interesting interview.It appears that Dubov is overconfident and saying things to impress..but everything he says is true.He is a very mature and intelligent person.

Naah his name is Federev or sth similar. It's certainly a Russian name

[@MustreaderChess]

It’s a pseudonym, and I don’t think anyone can crush Levy, he’s the GOAT of chess content creation

[@Northseapirate44]

What if you changed the time control to have less time in the opening

[@ayanlesalad4807]

Dubov is basically saying Magnus is like Messi and Fabi is Cr7
