Gotta defend yourself from chess players flaming you by giving them as much credit as possible. If he said “Magnus really should have found this move” I’m sure there would be retaliation on Twitter, so with analysis videos you need to give the players as much credit as possible.

@@joshuapickett9676 yeah Magnus is TALENTLESS. In 2019 inaugural: Nepo lost 3x to Wesley. Magnus lost 4x to Wesley. In 2022: Why is it a surprise Nepo beats Magnus? I've calculated several times in r/chess960 that Nepo is more talented than Magnus. I told you Magnus was a TALENTLESS patzer who crumbles without opening prep. Magnus beat nepo 4-0 in chess but loses 1-3 to Nepo in 9LX. LOL. How else do you explain this? Now it's up to Nepo to defeat Hikaru, the last chess villain and a traitor to the US for siding with Hans over Magnus, and break the 4-tournament streak of that Americans are in 1st place and Europeans are in 2nd place. 2019 - Wesley beats Magnus 2020 - Hikaru and Magnus win with Levon 2nd place 2021 - Leinier wins with MVL 2nd place 2022 - Fabi wins on tiebreaks Vs Alireza. Here's what I said before: 1st wesley got screwed by pichay as a filipino and now wesley is being screwed by FIDE as an american. I already said this on r/chess960 . Lower championship privilege and lower time controls. I knew Wesley would lose as soon as they changed the format. 5C's: corruption, cowardice, cheating and civil conspiracy. magnus cheated against alireza, danya and nepo. wesley is being screwed by FIDE. FIDE screws apparently its american players: wesley so, bobby fischer, et al in favour of its european players like anatoly karpov and magnus carlsen. FIDE is committing necrophilia (to bobby) and sodomy (to wesley). FIDE screwed Bobby: 1 - with the round robin instead of knockout candidates 2 - re anatoly karpov 3 - re the FAKE world championships for 9LX - they are some fun rapid/blitz tournaments that merely have the NAME world championship. If sergey karjakin decided to create a 9LX-only federation to compete with FIDE and had a world championship that was classical that all the top superGMs tried to participate in as opposed to, say, not being sure about participating in it vs CGC or Sinquefield Cup or whatever, then why shouldn't we consider the inaugural world championship more legit than the 2 FAKE WCs FIDE has had so far? Fake world championship. Rigged for Wesley to lose and conspiracy for Magnus to win in that they reduced the time controls. Give us classical that Magnus even supposedly wants or at least the same as last time and then we'll talk. to those who might tell me to 'cope', cope with what? 5C's: cheating? corruption? civil conspiracy? cowardice? fake world championships? wesley is the inaugural world champion and became such by proving magnus is a talentless patzer who crumbles without opening prep in beating magnus 13.5-2.5 and 4-0. and nothing can change that. in fact... 1 - if nodirbek wins then it will be simply passing of the torch to the next gen. there's no way to way magnus is or was more talented than wesley. if magnus or the traitor to the US hikaru (traitor for siding with magnus over hans) win, then they'll be fake world champions. if nepo wins....hmmm...idk maybe i'll consider nepo just the world fast rapid champion. (don't believe for a second that FIDE really considers the time controls of which the ones in 2019 are THIRTY FIVE PERCENT HIGHER as 'slow rapid' however the hell they like to define this.) 2 - the castling blunder recently proves wesley didn't beat magnus out of being more experienced in 9LX specifically. wesley really beat magnus on PURE TALENT, something magnus doesn't have.

Lol!!!! Soon after Magnus quits that's a wake up call for FIDE to bring back 9LX after over 2 years of silence as a way to bring back Magnus as their (FAKE) world champion. So they lower the time controls so that Wesley is at a disadvantage. What they didn't count on is the new gen. NODIRBEK IS WESLEY SO'S, BOBBY FISCHER'S AND 9LX'S LAST HOPE AGAINST THE CHESS VILLAINS FIDE, HIKARU AND MAGNUS. NODIRBEK IS OUR LAST CHANCE TO BEAT FIDE AND MAGNUS AT THEIR OWN GAME.

Yeah chess / 9LX has Jesus but also has devils. Here the devils are FIDE and Magnus and myb Hikaru. Our only hope right now is the angel Nodirbek. Btw this is what anonymous lichess gm former_player said in 2021Dec: 1 - FIDE has deceived Chess960 supporters by promising a big deal in 2018-2019 (ratings first of all) and not lifting a finger in this respect after the half-baked World Championship 2019.FIDE officials have given us a false sense of hope, and did so by intent I suppose, to nip any potential alternative (Chess960) federation (e.g. Norway-based) in the bud.

Too many things point at that, starting from the absence of a tournament website (!) and no news about it on the FIDE website. No surprise though. and also: 3 - It is an interesting e-chess event with debatable rules followed by a real-life final in Reykjavik (half invited players!) with big prize money, but not a world championship. A world championship without a website is nonsense because today every little company, every little shop or cafe has a website. A "FIDE world championship" not covered by FIDE is also nonsense. A world championship announced a couple of days before the start of the qualifiers is also nonsense. Now... Does Magnus Carlsen have something against Americans? Hans Niemann (+ Hans' coach) is American. Wesley So 'completely obliterated' Magnus Carlsen in the 9LX world championship 13.5-2.5 and 4-0. Bobby Fischer invented 9LX. Hans Niemann is American (like Wesley So, Beth Harmon and Bobby Fischer - the 4 of them are American prodigies with dark childhoods). But consider the non-Americans of the next generation: Rameshbabu Praggnanandhaa is not American: Magnus gives Pragg today round of APPLAUSE after his Stunning performance (Julius Baer Generation Cup 2022) Andrey Esipenko is not American: Magnus 'didn't say anything when got beaten by Esipenko'. Alireza Firouzja is not American: Don't really have anything to put here except Magnus and the Alireza thingy of world blitz 2019: Initially, Magnus talks on own time after Alireza moves. That's fine. But later after moving and then punching clock Magnus still continues to make noise. Additional: Magnus cheated against Daniel 'Danya' Naroditsky on lichess. Magnus described Hikaru Nakamura as merely 'decent'. Eric Rosen beat Magnus in 9LX. Magnus condescendingly asks Andrea Botez how knights move. St Louis Chess Club is in the US. Also there was that thing with Maurice Ashley. Update/s: 1 - Is Magnus against Americans (joke theory)? Kostya Kavutskiy replies in Twitch.

I have suggestion to make, looking at this game and even tho magnus won you can see how much chances he missed and i feel like in every video on the end of every game if you can show us how much accuracy every player had it would be fun for us to see how much a player is missing a magic in the positions he had

[@yotsugiononoki9995]

At 6:04, white also has Nh3 which the online engine strongly prefers over Nd3, the main difference between this and the position in 8:04 is that white has Bxc6 only in the latter. While Carlsen could have played Rxf2 instead of c6, Ian should not have actually played Ke1, engine suggests Be1. It gave black the possibility of playing a beautiful deep sequence of moves starting with h3, mentioned at 7:35, making it a better position for black compared to the position right before c6 h3, Bxh3, Ne4, Qc2, Nxf2, Nxf2, Rxf2, Qxc6+, Qxc6, Rxc6+- Black is up the exchange which may still turn into a grinding endgame... But now, look at this- Kd8, Rxb6, Kc7, Ra6, Rxh2, Bg4, Rh1+, Ke2, Rh4 and the bishop is trapped. Ian can win the passed a4 pawn or the central pawns but Carlsen is still up a rook and is easily winning.

I've calculated several times in r/chess960 that Nepo is more talented than Magnus. I told you Magnus was a TALENTLESS patzer who crumbles without opening prep. Magnus beat nepo 4-0 in chess but loses 1-3 to Nepo in 9LX. LOL. How else do you explain this? Now it's up to Nepo to defeat Hikaru, the last chess villain and a traitor to the US for siding with Hans over Magnus, and break the 4-tournament streak of that Americans are in 1st place and Europeans are in 2nd place. 2019 - Wesley beats Magnus 2020 - Hikaru and Magnus win with Levon 2nd place 2021 - Leinier wins with MVL 2nd place 2022 - Fabi wins on tiebreaks Vs Alireza. Here's what I said before: 1st wesley got screwed by pichay as a filipino and now wesley is being screwed by FIDE as an american. I already said this on r/chess960 . Lower championship privilege and lower time controls. I knew Wesley would lose as soon as they changed the format. 5C's: corruption, cowardice, cheating and civil conspiracy. magnus cheated against alireza, danya and nepo. wesley is being screwed by FIDE. FIDE screws apparently its american players: wesley so, bobby fischer, et al in favour of its european players like anatoly karpov and magnus carlsen. FIDE is committing necrophilia (to bobby) and sodomy (to wesley). FIDE screwed Bobby: 1 - with the round robin instead of knockout candidates 2 - re anatoly karpov 3 - re the FAKE world championships for 9LX - they are some fun rapid/blitz tournaments that merely have the NAME world championship. If sergey karjakin decided to create a 9LX-only federation to compete with FIDE and had a world championship that was classical that all the top superGMs tried to participate in as opposed to, say, not being sure about participating in it vs CGC or Sinquefield Cup or whatever, then why shouldn't we consider the inaugural world championship more legit than the 2 FAKE WCs FIDE has had so far? Fake world championship. Rigged for Wesley to lose and conspiracy for Magnus to win in that they reduced the time controls. Give us classical that Magnus even supposedly wants or at least the same as last time and then we'll talk. to those who might tell me to 'cope', cope with what? 5C's: cheating? corruption? civil conspiracy? cowardice? fake world championships? wesley is the inaugural world champion and became such by proving magnus is a talentless patzer who crumbles without opening prep in beating magnus 13.5-2.5 and 4-0. and nothing can change that. in fact... 1 - if nodirbek wins then it will be simply passing of the torch to the next gen. there's no way to way magnus is or was more talented than wesley. if magnus or the traitor to the US hikaru (traitor for siding with magnus over hans) win, then they'll be fake world champions. if nepo wins....hmmm...idk maybe i'll consider nepo just the world fast rapid champion. (don't believe for a second that FIDE really considers the time controls of which the ones in 2019 are THIRTY FIVE PERCENT HIGHER as 'slow rapid' however the hell they like to define this.) 2 - the castling blunder recently proves wesley didn't beat magnus out of being more experienced in 9LX specifically. wesley really beat magnus on PURE TALENT, something magnus doesn't have. Quote: Many decisions in tournament chess are made to favor the player that brings in the most sponsorship dollars and views, which is undoubtedly Magnus. There's also no doubt that Magnus generally dislikes americans- he said so on one of the Magnus effect podcast episodes. --> Here's the link I was given: Magnus Effect episode 2 - 20 Best Ways to Introduce Yourself FIDE lost out on a proper Magnus vs Wesley 9LX 2022 rematch of the century that could've paralleled the 50th anniversary of the 1972 match of the century in that THEY'D BE BOTH IN ICELAND AND BE ABOUT BOBBY FISCHER. It's the same thing as the anatoly karpov vs bobby in 1975: a great loss for chess then and now a great loss for 9LX. They reduced the time controls 1 month after Magnus quit WCC. See? Similar to Hans: they remove Hans from cgc soon after Magnus quit sinquefield cup. Basically when Magnus quits something, a chess entity harms an American to favour Magnus LOL Why not have all the FIDE 9LX qualifiers classical and the world championship classical!?!?!? or at least slow rapid as last time!??!?! Lol!!!! Soon after Magnus quits that's a wake up call for FIDE to bring back 9LX after over 2 years of silence as a way to bring back Magnus as their (FAKE) world champion. So they lower the time controls so that Wesley is at a disadvantage. What they didn't count on is the new gen. NODIRBEK IS WESLEY SO'S, BOBBY FISCHER'S AND 9LX'S LAST HOPE AGAINST THE CHESS VILLAINS FIDE, HIKARU AND MAGNUS. NODIRBEK IS OUR LAST CHANCE TO BEAT FIDE AND MAGNUS AT THEIR OWN GAME. (btw, they're not supervillains. hans is a supervillain. difference? PRESENTATION!!!!) You know Gasai how Wesley is very religious and thanks the Lord Jesus and stuff? Yeah chess / 9LX has Jesus but also has devils. Here the devils are FIDE and Magnus and myb Hikaru. Our only hope right now is the angel Nodirbek. Btw this is what anonymous lichess gm former_player said in 2021Dec: 1 - FIDE has deceived Chess960 supporters by promising a big deal in 2018-2019 (ratings first of all) and not lifting a finger in this respect after the half-baked World Championship 2019.FIDE officials have given us a false sense of hope, and did so by intent I suppose, to nip any potential alternative (Chess960) federation (e.g. Norway-based) in the bud. They have incorporated 960 in the Laws of Chess but then started pretending the game didn't exist. At least they could have organised some online events but see above. FIDE is being run by liars and hypocrites as for decades before, period. Bobby Fischer himself would hardly be surprised with it, though. and then similarly in 2022Sep: 2 - All in all, this is not a real World Championship, just an online blitz/rapid chess960 tournament "recognized as such" by FIDE. Similarly, anyone here can organize a series of events with some prize money and call it "the world championship". Too many things point at that, starting from the absence of a tournament website (!) and no news about it on the FIDE website. No surprise though. and also: 3 - It is an interesting e-chess event with debatable rules followed by a real-life final in Reykjavik (half invited players!) with big prize money, but not a world championship. A world championship without a website is nonsense because today every little company, every little shop or cafe has a website. A "FIDE world championship" not covered by FIDE is also nonsense. A world championship announced a couple of days before the start of the qualifiers is also nonsense. Now... Does Magnus Carlsen have something against Americans? Hans Niemann (+ Hans' coach) is American. Wesley So 'completely obliterated' Magnus Carlsen in the 9LX world championship 13.5-2.5 and 4-0. Bobby Fischer invented 9LX. Hans Niemann is American (like Wesley So, Beth Harmon and Bobby Fischer - the 4 of them are American prodigies with dark childhoods). But consider the non-Americans of the next generation: Rameshbabu Praggnanandhaa is not American: Magnus gives Pragg today round of APPLAUSE after his Stunning performance (Julius Baer Generation Cup 2022) Andrey Esipenko is not American: Magnus 'didn't say anything when got beaten by Esipenko'. Alireza Firouzja is not American: Don't really have anything to put here except Magnus and the Alireza thingy of world blitz 2019: Initially, Magnus talks on own time after Alireza moves. That's fine. But later after moving and then punching clock Magnus still continues to make noise. Additional: Magnus cheated against Daniel 'Danya' Naroditsky on lichess. Magnus described Hikaru Nakamura as merely 'decent'. Eric Rosen beat Magnus in 9LX. Magnus condescendingly asks Andrea Botez how knights move. St Louis Chess Club is in the US. Also there was that thing with Maurice Ashley. Update/s: 1 - Is Magnus against Americans (joke theory)? Kostya Kavutskiy replies in Twitch. (2022Sep) 2 - 'Magnus, like most Scandinavians, probably feels like America is a bit of a barbaric country.' - NM John Chernoff aka zugaddict from lichess and reddit (moderator of r/TournamentChess ) aka GargleBlaster from chesscom told me in chat in 2022Sep. 3 - Americans won 4 tournaments in 9LX in a row from 2019Nov to 2022Sep, namely FIDE 2019, St Louis 2020, St Louis 2021 and St Louis 2022. Then there's a European in 2nd place. Note: This post is not (completely) serious.
