There's some great elegance and calmness in the way Magnus moves his pieces and presses the clock. Just mesmerizing.

[@Thexaxisacademy2023]

lol what do you expect him to do? be rough with the pieces?

[@jose_oliveira378]

I love how Magnus casually talk with his opponent after the game, giving him advices

[@DaaimShabazz]

It's pretty normal.

[@mirco9326]

it's chess bon-ton

[@in-ertia2389]

10:02 hikaru 😂

[@giriarun1191]

His mind voice: hey who won the game??😂😂

[@bdy576]

It's wonderful to see Magnus dabbling in the French (he used it against Naka a few days back). First tier chess has not really had a passionate French advocate since Korchnoi, so this is pleasing to see. Not that I think he'll be using it to the extent that Korchnoi did obviously, but the French is still popular at the club and Swiss level, and French players will get a boost out of the main man using it, however selectively.

[@CHICKENNUGGET69360]

Remember the time he got so bored with chess saying it was just the same went into a drunkpression, and now he plays interesting non-book moves, he played too much and just makes it interesting for everybody.

[@dontneedme25]

Ter gave it his all and you can see the agony with the post game conversation

[@_sushantprabhu]

The poise with which Magnus plays amazes me every time! G.O.A.T

[@Not-You-Tuber]

He just casually outplayed this 2500+ player.. MC OP..❤️❤️

[@claudiog7692]

Not really outplayed, a few moves before the end he went from -4 to 0,00 in one move but otherwise great game

[@joddle23]

@@claudiog7692 carlsen has been in some trouble in his rapid games, but he always makes the opponent find only moves to preserve an advantage and in rapid especially, this is tough!

[@rubenlarotin3141]

almost beat him time was problematic though seconds mere from flagging gets to your nerves.

[@HelloKittyAndMyMelody]

It was in Kazakhstan that I saw him Very,Megnus played well.

[@florinstoica5357]

3:10 many people have complained online about how this move is possible. Actually is a legal move in chess

[@Snir556]

How is that a legal move ?

[@ahchonx]

@@Snir556 it is called En Passant. Just google it up

[@LeDiableBlanc]

En Passant, is confusing as shit for newer players. Basically, if a pawn moves forward two squares on its opening move to be next to an opponent's pawn, the opponent can take the forward pawn by moving behind it to capture. BUT, only on the very next turn. If the opponent's pawn does not En Passant the turn after the pawn moved next to it, the move then becomes illegal.

[@azamatkuandyk6683]

3:12 can Sahakyan eat the pawn like that?

[@hongnhungnguyen4638]

Yeah you can eat the pawn like this if your pawn crosses the middle of the chessboard.

[@n1rupam]

Google en passant

[@divakarlhotti3857]

When i am watching chess, i see only ther expressions, not the pieces

We see now how chess can be intimadating when the opponent is not only the strongest player in the world but in the same time look alike Reacher. Magnus intensity.

[@experimentandoenlacocina5399]

Can someone explain why Sahakyan surrendered?

[@the-top-1-percent]

Because the pawn is going to queen and that's unstoppable

[@telemahos2]

Magnus played unbelievable blunders in this game. The transformation of chess into ''bullet'' games is just sad

[@user-ee1lo1il3f]

that's not very fair, is it. this was his first game. every other game except the one he lost he played at 90+ accuracy, including three at 98% accuracy. same level in the world blitz - only two of the 21 games were below 90% and more than half of his blitz games were 96% or above. (meanwhile either one or both of ding and nepo played below 90% for six of the 14 wc classical games, including one game below 80%...)

[@Dream-gs2vr]

Just again a waste 12min video by not adding the 2D video

[@lazyatthedisco]

The board is seen pretty clear from this angle. What are you complaining about?
