@@Chill_Enigma yeah, cause he has been an introvert but this is like fumbling too much(I am not saying that being an introvert does that it just causes you too think a lot about unnecessary things and lose side of your original plan),I just hope he can get his confidence back and doesn't go through any mental trauma or something over the course of these matches

Iirc Ding was about to quit chess. But then he won the WCC. He just doesn't have the passion anymore in playing. It's sad watching him crumble now because he was really good in the past.

What’s happening to Ding is all mental. His skills are clearly top tier, and he’s getting good opening positions. This should be studied for the effects mentality has on your performance, same reason levy is not Gm.
