[@occultsymbols]

@@fr0stburn798 the truth is what he actually believes so when you say that Magnus believes he is he goat but simultaneously thinks the truth is that Kasparov is the goat that is an oxymoron, it’s not possible. Either he believes he is the goat or he believes Kasparov is the goat. He can’t believe 2 conflicting things at the same time

[@Creek1575]

​@@occultsymbolsYou can coz in this case it's subjective. He may think that Kasparov is the best in finding flashy checkmates while he also thinks that he himself is the best in endgames. So basically, both can be true depending on how you judge the best chess player.

@chan8772 Then I'll spell it out for you. That includes who the GOAT is compared to who was. Just as Paul Morphy and Bobvy Fischer were also the GOAT at one time, they were eventually surpassed over time, and so may have Kasparov too! As we stand on the shoulders of giants! Meaning those talented few players who come later become better than! And I say may because of the difference time made in Garrys' compared to today wirh the internet and ability of players to learn from each other, since Garry was world champion for so long! So, it's very complicated, as you should know.
