@@gmatsue84 potential for a future fork. There was only one defender of E3 (B on C1) and it was blocked by the move N-D2

[@PotatoCultivator]

after night D2, calrsen can take the queen after going night E3 because the queen is trapped. king F2 is meant to guard the E3 square from the night I think

I personally would not have the balls to pawn storm magnus carlson on my king side

[@robichj]

It was probably the YOLO variation. The one where you know you're going to lose the game anyway, so might as well have fun doing it.

[@simon_patterson]

I personally would not have the balls to play magnus carlson.

[@HitokiriShaggyTTV]

I was thinking I would go unorthodox like that. Hes going to crush me if I try to out maneuver him. Of course this video showed me he would crush me this way as well :). Like I ever had that doubt.

[@HitokiriShaggyTTV]

Of course he will. I just feel I have a slightly better chance going with lesser used lines. Of course in reality if you watched the match you would see me get crushed worse than I would have of I played a more standard style.

[@aphroditesaphrodisiac3272]

Stephen Stansell yeah I think lesser used lines are worse, cause Magnus quite frequently plays weird stuff against weaker opponents

[@yushamush9849]

He never once looses faith in his abilities

2:20 "Not sure how good his position is" AKA "I'm playing against an idiot or a computer"

[@paultnt1]

Even when the world champ has a pawn storm coming for him he still sees a way to win - amazing player

[@denisl2760]

The problem was the pawn storm abandoned their king lol, I'm pretty sure Magnus wasn't too concerned.

[@bobbyfischer604]

Pawn storms work only along with good play behind it. Just pushing pawns for the sake of it will let you exposed and under-developed.

[@felixliang7558]

He seems so modest and normal when compared to nearly unbeatable Super GMs like Hikaru, who on their stream make 20 inhumanly fast calculations per second out loud and obliterate all opposition that comes in his way with confidence. But then, you remember that at almost every encounter Hikaru has had with Carlsen, he gets crushed.

[@hacker-7214]

@JediNxf7 exactly its amazing

[@realmcafee]

if magnus has only 4 sek left and the other 16 he could win. Split second movement. isn’t it that what you mean ? I kinda don’t know who you talking about but will look him up now

[@ciprianourdiana1360]

Great. It's amazing watching the World Champion. In this game I many mistake in opening from white, that let so many holes in the position. Finally bkac seized the oportunity, and finished off using elementary tactics resources. I love Magnus, He's a Genius.

[@ounobaga1829]

[@mylovelyman2]

Unprecedented in the history of chess, that you get insight into the reigning world champions thought process. Not only is it just fabulous gleaning these insights, Carlsen comes off extremely well. Thank you Magnus!

[@hughreilly2023]

What an amazing attack. Carlson looked bottled up but then trades his knight for a pawn and blows the game wide open.

[@habibihabibi2565]

Seriously he just looking for someone who can actually beat him

[@RanEncounter]

That is the life of a world champion.

[@visakhunnikrishnan7232]

If Nakamura didn't have this weird mental block kind of thing when playing Magnus, I'm pretty sure he could win against Magnus in these short time controls.

[@sethdavenport5813]

Knight x g4 is a very nice start of a combination. So simple but utterly effective.

[@artmannify]

With magnus' turn to move at 6:00 could he not also have gone: G-h2 (check!) King-e3 d-d4 check! E2xd4 G7-d4 checkmate!!! Am i wrong anyone?? (Please excuse me if im not writing the moves as i correctly should.. i will learn next. I promise.. :-)) Ps. Fascinating to watch this norwegian guy play: i think he is on a whole other level.. like he has an understanding of this game that is .. well "VERY Deep"!(?).. Fascinating that is.. fascinating..
