Streamer FIGHTS! GM Jan Gustafsson vs GM Hans Niemann

[@jasonuerkvitz3756]

Gustafsson is one of those chess players I'd love to meet. What a cool guy. I remember well the Banter Blitzs he put out a few years back and he was so affable and enjoyable to watch and listen to.

[@TheHolden20]

Seit Jan die WM kommentiert hat, bin ich ein Fan von ihm. Cooler Typ

[@le6637]

Jan Gustafsson is a nice and well-respected GM, who worked as an opening expert in Magnus' team of seconds. Too bad that Hans can't show some respect to the ones who deserve it

[@luciengrondin5802]

What disrespect? He called him chicken because of the way he played, that's a bit cheeky but not disrespectful.

[@fukav1am]

The chicken chess club is a real thing, albeit virtual.

[@Wrench9-x8l]

America !!

[@itnefer4787]

@@luciengrondin5802 You really need some lessons in manners if you do not recognize disrespect when an older GM is called a chicken by a "future American World champion".

[@KnightToRemember]

Jan is literally a member of the chicken chess club

[@JohnexNottsRdfdBlvd]

Both are enhancing their reputations.

[@hubertt9046]

I remember Jan's banter blitzs on chess24, very nice guy

[@chickenmessiah]

The behavior speaks for itself.

[@ComradeSina-nt2ms]

Hans Niemann, as disrespectful as always.

[@derkuhschubser6488]

Where?

[@foraminutethere23]

He meant no offense. Apparently Jan runs a podcast called the chicken chess club

[@Anonymous-bc4dl]

Jan: "Hans played strong, well done!" Meanwhile Hans: "gg chicken" or "the chicken never calculates". What a disgraceful human being that boy is

[@duartevader2709]

It's literally a joke mate, Jan has a podcast named chicken or something similar, it's just a joke Trying to nitpick everything Hand does like this just shows lack of maturity and ignorance

[@Anonymous-bc4dl]

@duartevader2709 I didnt know about the chicken chess club podcast but my point about hans being disrespectful still stands, just listen to him and you'll know it.

[@duartevader2709]

@@Anonymous-bc4dl it absolutely doesnt, there is nothing disrespectfull in it, its his way of talking and sens of humor that you simply do not understand

[@Deciverse]

[@onekonrad121]

@@Anonymous-bc4dlI agree, Hans is disrespectful and his character is disgusting

[@Noah1377]

nice video, thanks

[@maxzweistein8951]

Hans being a disrespectful brat as usual, Jan conceading defeat in grace as usual.

[@foraminutethere23]

He wasn't trying to be. Jan runs a podcast called the chicken chess club

[@HerbertMaloney]

We understand, but Hans said "he trades like a chicken" and "calculates like a chicken". That's clearly disrespectful

[@foraminutethere23]

@@HerbertMaloney a bit yes but it is kinda playful. Trying to be at least.

[@Deciverse]

@@HerbertMaloneyLoud and wrong. Jan literally calls his own chess this. “Chicken chess club” refers to people with Jan’s lazier “chicken” style lol. It’s literally a reference to his own joke

[@duartevader2709]

It's literally a joke You are the disrespectfull one here trying to find anything to use against Hans when in reality you just come off as ignorant and childish

[@lobsterboy8148]

Hans is just a terrible person. Unliked by anyone with a shred of decency. Being good at a game means nothing when you’re old and lonely.

[@Deciverse]

Nothing he said was disrespectful, you’re genuinely just an idiot. Jan is in a chess club called chicken chess club and id a tagline he frequently goes by

[@scipie2288]

I feel for Jon when he loses, a very sad face

[@SteveMeek]

Who's Jon?

[@fbahr]

It is spelled J-A-N.

[@rmo4762]

I don't like the negative attitude from Hans. He looks sick

[@goldinhoxx8964]

"Chess speaks for itself". Thats why Hans doesnt speak in his stream? Who would watch this? So boring. Two sentences, both about chickens.

[@Livinginwonderland77]

Yeah he's focused on training his chess rather than being entertaining. People want to see him play and without tournament invites people can't. Seeing him online playing other known gms is fun. He doesn't have to talk a lot because his chess is enough on its own. 2k ppl turned in to aatch him adopt danya for example

[@nicolesoukalova]

What a terrible person Hans is; love Jan's gameplay and character.

[@YannickMMA]

Hans Niemann looks like he is having the time of his life…

[@kallimerocks]

I saw a Match between a respected gm vs someone who Talks about chicken

[@tms174]

@@msqway11dogpiling Saum? Look at hanss aggressive Interviews and Talk, disgusting

[@MichaelOrthodoxChristian]

Hans Niemann's match insults sound a bit like the Mexican wrestling world of Nacho Libre. Maybe chess needs a bad guy who will crush the chicken necks of his opponents.

[@firstlast7184]

Jan famously calls his own style of play chicken chess. Avoiding complications and the need to calculate. The Chicken Chess Club is anyone who makes such a move. Jan sometimes says it during his commentary. Hans is merely referencing Jan's own joke.

[@dennisbiermann5558]
