When a Teenager Defeated Magnus Carlsen

Magnus Carlsen has been the best chess player for a while now, but a talented prodigy Nodirbek Abdusattorov has been rising the ranks becoming one of Magnus' serious adversaries..
This recounts when the Nobirdek faced the World Champion in the 2019 World Rapid Finals and showed exactly what he was made of

When a person wins too many times, the game loses meaning, but you learn by losing, which is the most significant part of how brilliant chess is, alongside the respect the two chess players are in a game of patience and wits.

That was intense I Also liked how Magnus still Smiled even though he lost

[niall]

this guy is like probably one of the best prodigies ive ever seen

I've never really gotten through a whole 5 minute chess video but you made this seem like the #1 hit movie of the year 🤣 your story telling is really good!

[birdvatcher]

as a non-chess player going through a chess youtube phase I really enjoyed the format of this video. good stuff, new sub

[christophertidwell]

This kid ran through everyone else but magnus still gave his a fight, one of my favorite chess players

Damn! I'm SUPER Impressed by your storytelling!!! You really made this seem like the most EPIC victory of all time just from the way you presented this game. This is literally perfect storytelling if I've ever seen it!

On a side note, trying to even understand the logic that goes on in top level chess is well, impossible (as it should be for someone who barely ever crossed 1700 on lichess a handful of times in his life). Even after the first correct move was given at the end, I still had a hard time understanding the full why of said move.

There is a feature length documentary about Mairo Kart DS which had amazing storytelling in it of itself. That video is an hour and a half documentary which absolutely nailed everything. But to say the storytelling here pretty much felt quite a lot better THAN THAT is no small feat!

Edit: This perfect storytelling I was referring to starts at 1:00. Everything before that is just average. But also, the music changes at around 4:00, that's when the storytelling starts to feel a bit inconsistent all of a sudden. I'm mentioning this to show that I'm not ignoring the flaws, but still, despite this, I still love this presentation of the game, and the fact that Nodirbek Abdusattorov managed to win the World Rapid Finals 2021 up against none other than Magnus Carlsen really expedites my appreciation for this video, and in a way, the game covered as well.

i dont even really play chess besides messing around with friends but im one of the best at my highschool, but when i watch these guys its blows me away how someone the same age as me was able to defeat the world champ. reminds me how small and insignificant my acheivments are in the wide scheme of things

"Nodirbek checks Magnus as it's fun checking the world champion"

[dxwnsxn]

I respect Magnus how he is still smiling while shaking Nodirbek's hand

[Kamila-gpvl]

Good to see such a talent coming from Uzbekistan 🇺🇿 Keep it up Nodirbek!

[loademup]

It's amazing to see young talent rising up to challenge the best in the world, and this teenager's victory over Magnus Carlsen is truly inspiring! It's a testament to the power of hard work and dedication, and a reminder that anything is possible if we believe in ourselves and keep pushing forward

1:16 ''after a few more developing moves, Magnus moves his queen to have sex''

[otinaj]

Got chills runnin down my spine! Keep up the good work, this kind of content is going places!

[rhodigian]

not just "a teenager", this is Abdu, and he is phenomenal

[JordySchunk]

I've never seen magnus resign, especially in an endgame! What a time we live in.

[stargrim]

I can’t imagine what it must feel like to be so good at something, you actually losing is an interesting story and a sign of another person’s genius. I respect it, but I can’t imagine it.

[MatthiasYReich]

I have zero comparison as I’ve never watched a competitive chess game and/or commentary, but I enjoyed this a lot, thank you!

[YaBoyDequan]

How does this dude not have millions of subs? He makes videos better then people who do
