When I was 13, I met Magnus Carlsen in Copenhagen. He was really nice, but when I asked him how he got so good at chess, his eyes rolled back and he tapped my head and I woke up 4 days later. Really powerful player, a generational talent.

[@Jujitard69420]

Are you good at chess now too

Did he do one of those dream sequences aka flashbacks on you?

22:15 Black Knight ~> G4, White Knight ~> G4, Black Pawn ~> G4. Either white takes black pawn with queen, or white blunders the bishop. I’m gonna just assume Magnus would play queen to G4 to capture the black pawn…Pawn to F5 (since the knight is now not ruining my piece progression) makes the queen run for the hills etc…

Magnus sacrificing the rook before it was even a meme is truly a magnus movement of all time.
