3059 elo opponent... Magnus "he's really playing quite well" :D

[ismailouad]

Opponent: I made magnus stop moving pieces and think.
*Magnus reading chat comments

4:28 as a 400 elo these words HIT MA SOUL

"Ya, don't be racist. Fuck that."-Magnus Carlsen, 2023. Well said, sir.

His ability is a thing of beauty. Pleasure to watch

It's nice to know that any time I feel bad about my level of play I can turn to YouTube and insta comments on chess media to feel so much better.

[geniustipstricks]

Why is 80% of this comment section someone falsely accusing Magnus of missing a fork then everyone correcting them 😭😭

[obscurelines]

Actually a good game to follow. Some very logical moves. It's so interesting that one of Magnus's talents is sustained belief that he can win through to the end game. It almost makes the middlegame moot so long as he isn't desperately behind.

[lancetehira]

Wow!! It's amazing and frustrating to watch Magnus play because seriously the amount of mental effort to master the game to that point is scary!!!! Like that point where he said "Veeery accurate he's playing well" was basically a good time to quit to me but instead Magnus ties the opponent into a knot and announced "he resigned"

Hearing that Magnus likes Weird Al brings joy to my heart.

3:56 damn he played so fast that I thought black pawn took down black queen 😂😂😂

[aderojuolusegun]

Knight was pinned at 5:30 so no free rook😂😂😂

[nomelzorr]

spent yesterday like 6 hours trying getting from 490 to 500 enrage last night this guide feels like it was made specifcally for me ....

[uttkarshtewari]

at 0:06 are you not supposed to take the e4 pawn or does it not matter

[cominoengenharia]

I didn't find a vídeo on how to play against this variation with Black pieces. Anyone can link me to one?

I've seen fantasy, advance, exchange, 2 knights, but not this.

[fpltobias]

Why do people not understand that this guy would se a fork 3-4 moves before it would happen, if it was on the board he definetly saw it, and if ut talking about 5:30 he cant move his knight cause he will get checked

[timseidelll]

No way this many people are saying "Why didn't Magus fork??!" Like a GM would be this blind.

[dukebd]

I don’t understand what did he do at 3:52 . He like stacked his pawn and queen and the queen disappeared? Can someone explain . Newbie to chess

[ericpregent]

Why not going for the fork at 5:29 ? I suck at chess so I am just wondering

The opponent played so well but still lost...
Is there any mistakes they made? I'm too bad to see that 😢
