I think this is why Magnus is pushing for more Fischer/960/Freestyle chess. You have to think on your feet and there's no one better at that. He just starts with any old opening moves and if he digs himself into a hole, then the fun comes for him in figuring out how to get out of that hole.

[@AlwaysForgets]

Countless of players are better at that, Magnus is known for his great memorization of entire games, the chess/Magnus popularizing episode of 60 minutes claimed it was over 10,000 but it is much greater than that and it keeps on growing. Magnus is where he is at precisely because of that, if he were anywhere close to the best at thinking on his feet in chess he'd be 3000 OTB or at least 2900, because perfect chess memory plus perfect chess intelligence would make one virtually unbeatable.

[@radscorpion8]

@@AlwaysForgets but are they really so different? What does it mean to think on your feet? It means you mentally have to move pieces while retaining a perfect image of the board after each move. So that requires the use of memory anyway. This idea that memory is used ONLY to remember complex lines is silly, its used in both cases. And the better your memory is, the deeper you can "think on your feet" and analyze the strengths and weaknesses of various positions. I think he likes 960 because, often times you can get away with certain extremely well practiced lines, and be in such an advantage that you don't need to think on your own that much afterwards. And that's where chess is sort of being ruined. But its not a battle between memory and the ability to play spontaneously, unless you are in a bullet or rapid chess scenario, but it is honestly difficult to consider that real chess anyway.

[@JimJWalker]

If you think about it. Materially white is down 2 pawns (rook for a bishop). But, what is white gaining in return? White gets blacks best bishop, a tempo, free development of the knight on b1, and white sheds the queenside rook that normally goes undeveloped for at least 10-15 moves. It strangely makes sense.

[@larslover6559]

White doesnt gain a tempo here though. Its still just one piece development ahead. And also, putting the knight on the edge is hardly advantage

[@davidnika446]

I have an idea for a chess tournament. Have 10 chess games prearranged, played 10 moves in. Each player, without seeing the game in advance, picks up from there. For the first game, each player has a 50-50 chance of inheriting black or white. Each time a player loses, they get THEIR CHOICE of black or white position for the next game. If they win, THEIR OPPONENT gets to choose which side they inherit for the next game. But after 3 losses, you get eliminated. Does that sound interesting? Maybe? I call it the "Totally F-ed Up Cup". It will be awesome!

[@tarasov9794]

0:57 "horrendous placement [of the knight]" - I think that is where the problem in thinking may be found, because it is way too early for this sort of qualitative judgement of placement, which depends on ones intent, the placement of enemy pieces and esp. the king. And also, the knight is rather fast for it to relocate wherever one wishes it to be on the board. Briefly: this estimation is early and rooted more in traditional thinking, rather than in reason.

[@wanderingwatcher3981]

No, you were upset about how the "horrendous placement of the knight"-comment broke the narrative. The setup was "In the start Magnus plays bad moves but then he tries to win". On move 3 he takes the bishop and does so trying to win but the narrator's focus on "how horrible the placement of the knight was" made it sound like Magnus was still making bad moves. "qualitative judgement of placement" is just your own brain bullshitting itself when it failed to come up with a reasonable explanation for why you felt unsettled.

[@NoidoDev]

Never playing chess, still getting this recommended. Something big must be going on.

[@darrengarrett8176]

Sacking the rook for a minor piece early was popularized by chess engines. They just keep the board locked down and make the rooks unusable until they have to trade back when they dont have an advantage anymore.

[@Overt_Erre]

It's memorization, pattern recognition, some creativity and playing with the opponent's mind. A lot of people like to discount chess as "memorization", but thatn is just the groundwork the game is based on. At some point you have to choose to make weird moves to throw the game into unfamiliar territory for your opponent, like we see in this video.

[@ManuFortis]

Really cool to see Magnus use this. I've played around with this opening before in the past when playing against max level CPU opponents. I've not won yet, but I get close sometimes. I know it's not a great opening, but that's not why I use it. I use it to try to deke the computer into a certain play style by using it as a facade. The main point of it, as I use it at least, is to take the enemies bishop away as fast as possible, ideally using the pawn to take it after sacrificing the rook. Rooks are great and all, but somewhat limited in their ability to do anything til later game. So I figure if I am likely to lose the rooks anyways, I might as well take out some bishops with them somehow. The knight is used instead for harrying the enemy line, also a throw away, just for later. The main thing here is to open up the queen for attack position against the other queen, or the king. Ideally putting the king into check prior to a castle manoeuvre. Barring that, using both to start a defence against any attack vectors the enemy has building up. The one thing I should point out though, is that I will sometimes flip sides for this opening, depending on whether I want to castle on the king side, or queen side. Or, I might fake it by moving the pawn opposite side first. Which is technically a different opening all together, but again, it's all about getting rid of those bishops if possible and opening up the queen and king. Against high level players, I don't expect this to work out well, since people aren't always as absolute in their methods like a computer will be. But against a computer, I figure I can get a win out of it, provided I don't make my usual 2-3 or more 'other' mistakes according to the engine, as this opening is considered a mistake out of the box. Anyways. That's enough out of me, some chess scrub.

I understand. Like when William The Conqueror won against the Duke of Normandy in the battle of Hastings, this guy keeps giving his opponent targets in order to get his opponent to over commit his pieces and leave the King unprotected. Maybe the solution is to always move back to protect the king. That's what he seems to do and it works because the Chess pieces function best as a unit of pieces that are close to each other. If you leave your back line too far behind then you can be cut up.
