What Happens When Two Legends CLASH? Magnus vs Vasyl

[@JohnKuhles1966]

I love it how the commentator responded ... you could tell he was shocked!

[@LOGANoAce]

12:05 There must’ve been some computer smart Knight F7 line cause the bar kept jumping up and down when the move was looking strong. 😮

[@MOREBEATSTV]

After the white rook comes to the D file black is completely overloaded and down two pawns. Black knight cannot counter because of the check forking the rook

[@marineboy1964]

The clash of the titans

[@TruthSurge]

6:06 cuz like... moving all your attackers away from the opponent's king is great strategy!

[@geometricart7851]

Ivanchuk used to be a freaking powerhouse. The only guy I think to have a + score vs Kasparov in his prime.

[@tonydempsey9404]

I don't believe Ivanchuk managed a plus score versus Kasparov. However, Boris Gulko did achieve this. Kramnik would also have been close. Depends how one determines which were Kasparov's prime years and, I suppose, whether one takes account of games played at non-classical time controls.

[@dexio8601]

Kasparov has a 11-4 vs Ivanchuk in classical.

[@jpbroadwater]

The way I see it, he can't make a significant counterattack down 2 pawns and with his Queen and Rook tied down like that. Also, he's not going to lose much rating against Magnus.

[@mikeg2538]

It was tie at this point. Why did he resign?

[@danbaron6933]

@@mikeg2538not even close to a tie. Magnus is up two pawns with a past pawn and and really strong knight outpost. The evaluation shows it and at this level it’s an easy conversion for a win for Magnus.

[@greenmile9496]

Do players get to choose or bring their own pieces? It would appear that some of the black pieces are a bit smaller. Check out the size of the pawn spheres at the top. The rooks of each color also appear different…or is this some illusion?🧐

[@ericastier1646]

black form over dark background square will appear bigger than same size black form over white square. Probably an optic illusion.

[@davidrobertson1980]

Funny you should mention that, I thought the same thing with two of Magnus' pawns early in the game when they lined up (from the camera) the front one (to us) looked way out of proportion and big topped - probably just a glitch in the Matrix dude ;)

[@greenmile9496]

They are definitely smaller, no illusions here.

Each of them writes both of their moves to have a good accounting of the match, and to allow replication and study.

Chucky's been doing this the past couple years, when he decides there's nothing to fight for he resigns even in a drawn position. Not saying this game is one of those but he could've fought for it. Happens when you get older, you say "screw it" more often, just not worth the energy

Those pieces have been used thousands of times in big tournaments over the years, and they're probably not part of the same set anymore.

[@jonh8488]

Could Magnus not have exchanged queens at the end and get a new queen ? Or maybe it was better to use the rook., but game ended before we saw that move

Ok im a non chess player. Just wanna know why do they put down their geads like their in a lot of stress? Or are they thinking too hard? Also why do they write each other moves? Do they not remember?

[@MilitechNetrunner]

I'm a newbie chess player and my answer might be wrong, cmiiw. They're thinking hard, predicting opponents next move and thinking what they're going do about it. They basically have this imagination match in their heads. And the hand to support their head gives a little comfort I think. And it's to keep tradition alive why they write down their moves. Ofc they digitally record their games.

[@willardstaton]

Impossible to remember each move of each game, although players like Magnus have excellent recollection. They wrote the moves to keep a record of the game so it can be preserved and studied by everyone.

[@dexio8601]

Writing moves down is part of the game rules for classical.chess.

[@Chessdummy]

Both players made mistakes. We are all human and make mistakes. Then again, is not seeing a better move a mistake? Chess isn’t everything, and investing too much wasted time to it has been my biggest mistake.

[@TheSoftwareJunction]

Cant figure out who won or lost..

[@Golem.8088]
