From here Agad pushes new videos Sunday, Monday, and 2000 subscribers are coming, there is no stopping this, Agadmator is promoting.

[@zachm5136]

Your commentary is extremely helpful. I was questioning two moves, and you answered them directly. i) Why Dubov's king shouldn't have captured his bishop on d3 (but rather use his pawn) and ii) Why he used his "a" rook to attack the g7 pawn. Your ability to recognize these moves as instructional points is what makes you such a great commentator. Thank you Agadmator!

2:12 Dubov’s king is out in the open like a boss. Like Dubov himself!

[@arunbeckham8384]

One of the best games I have seen in this tournament.

[@paulofernandes1375]

Such a cool game. I can't believe Dubov actually had this level of preparation, felt like he lost his mind at some point.

[@Lydloes]

Dobov. just gotta love him. So different from the rest, and so amazing attacking chess.

[@dawn21stcentury]

Oh I'm soo happy. I just biked/plowed thru mountains of snow for the last hour to get home (Netherlands), made myself some soup and Agadmator uploaded a new video. Life CAN be great.

[@rochakparida2597]

Just imagine Dubov plays white and when Agadmator starts the analysis, he says "As of Move 1 we have a completely new game" :P

[@agentdiablo7178]

Dubov wins with 1. c3??? Or something like that

[@chessenthus]

#suggestion Shirov Skripchenko 2021. Happened a few days back. Awesome attacking game from Shirov.

[@rv907]

Classic Dubov. Brilliant beyond brilliancy, then misses something normal players would not. One of a kind. If he ever polishes his game he will be unstoppable.

[@UnknownUser-j3n]

Ya that looked so obvious, like 2-3 seconds max to spot. With 10 second increments shouldn't have been missed.

[@tdurran]

That game was gorgeous. I think Dubov may be some kind of wizard.

[@derekbaker4763]

I agree 100%. They are the 2 most exciting players by alot.

[@j_onti23]

I’m a simple man. I see Dubov, I click

What a game man! Feels good to spot the move when you ask as to pause the video :D

[@ojasbanker9902]

I love your channel .... ❤️ Reached 1055 rating today

[@mycommentpwnz]

I used to be amazed that these guys would miss some moves, then, I thought about it a bit deeper. If someone told Dubov prior to moving his rook, "YOU HAVE A FORCED MATE IF YOU MAKE THE RIGHT MOVE!" He'd find the winning move, and he'd do so quickly.

[@arnaldosandoval453]

It does become kind of a Dubov theme that he finds out of the darkest forests faster then his opponent but somehow oversees the winning moves. Maybe it's the trade of for creative play to unsee the obvious moves

Hey Antonio, you have been working really hard for us and I think that you deserve a break after this tournament. I've been meaning to write this since Tata Steel but was hesitant. But the amount of uploads from the opera rapid blew my mind (I'm fairly new to the chess word and your channel) therefore I'm writing this. Take care.

[@mcunited6902]

On 09:51 the best move is rook to h8, the only thing the black can do is blocking the h8 white rook with his own rook, then comes then comes bishop to g7 with another check, and the only thing black can do is king to e8, then u capture the rook and it's check mate
