You got an “this is hard” and a “oo, good move” and a “you’re playing better than my liking” out of him!!! That’s a victory in my book.

[Atreas]

That "this is not easy" from him, is a huge badge of honor.

[WhisperingWempe]

4:56 magnus such a sweet and polite trash-talker😅

[OpalLeigh]

Aw I love that he really had the game in good faith:) whenever she asked questions or got stuck he did try to give her genuinely good advice. When you’re so good you can help people and still win:)

A great game to get a great "hi chat 👋"

4:45 Anna: “is this losing if I just go back?” Magnus: “yes but it is also losing if you do other things” 😂

Okay, that was so dang fun to watch. As the game went on, you eased him out of the mildly awkward mega-genius to a having-fun mega-genius. I'm a huge Magnus fan, and I'm really enjoying your channel, Anna!

[DannySizzle]

Magnus really tells his opponents what to do to win and he still wins

[SD]

I like that this is our world champion, someone with a good sense of humor and who is not so serious, he even makes jokes in the middle of the game, he completely breaks the stereotype of a calm chess player who just spends his time in silence studying

[ironmando]

When you're competing against the person who is literally the best at something *in the whole world*, and they tell you you're "doing a little too well for my liking"...I'd say that's a victory in and of itself.

[themensroom]

I enjoyed how they discuss the game and tactics during, obviously, improvement is a never ending journey.

[danielholth]

I like this version og MAgnus. So casual and generous with compliments. Hope we get to see more of this version of him :)

[sirbattlecat]

You guys play chess faster than I decide what to put on my toast...

[kevinchan]

Anna: "Is this just losing if I go back?"
Magnus: "Yea. . . but it's also losing if you do other things"
Hilarious

[salamandradehielo]

That was amazing! He complemented quite a few of your moves. I wish we had the clock on the screen. He said he was going to try to win on time at some point.

[youtreetubecomments]

amazing to watch two of the most amazing people being human and joking around whilst having the most impressive game of chess

[grahamvandyke]

I'd be one of the spectators with my hand on my chin watching the game intently while having absolutely no idea what you guys are doing tactics wise.

[abrahamlincoln]

He’s like an anime boss, who is bored for centuries until he finds a worthy enough opponent, for him to entertain himself.

[breakerillusion]

What a respectful chess player knowing he is the best in the world, giving her small hints and encouragements as they play instead of insulting or trying to get in her head.

[WhisperingWempe]

"ah this i like" 5:45 i love it, he likes her pawn move bc it makes it challenging for him 😂❤❤❤❤
