Vishy's Experience Of Playing KASPAROV And MAGNUS

0:13 proof that Hikaru can hear the commentators

1:36 Vishy so nice not to tell srinath the shut up w/ lines okay, whilst talking

[pianissimo]

This is what I keep telling everyone. It's not really fair to compare sportsmen of different eras. The technological and tactical improvements in sports like football and almost all team sports make today's players different from previous generations.
Motorsport is very different now, especially F1 compared to 1950s.
Chess is very different due to computers.
In high jump for example we cant compare the players before Fosbury to players after Fosbury.
We need to compare only active players at the present, everything else falls into speculation

[quasar]

The main difference I believe is Magnus' endgame is superior than Garry like Vishy said Magnus can do something from a dead drawn position

[theneedytechie]

The thumbnail is like Gary and Magnus wanted to murder Anand.

[theneokenshin]

But kasparov dominated his era just as magnus does today. He was 2800 when everyone cant touch that rating. His cheat was he played high rated tournaments and took 1st place most of the time

[roollavendano]

Anand entro en la puerta grande de la historia del ajedrez cuando aplasto a dreev en un match de candidatos en 1991. Sus partidas con Karpov, Kasparov, Ivanchuk y demas ya son legendarias. El match de 1995 contra kasparov estuvo a punto de vencerlo si no fuera por la famosa decima partida.

If you haven't seen many of Kasparov's games it's easy to write him off. You hear what Vishy said and just think he was a weaker Magnus. But "dynamics" means something different when talking about these two players. Magnus' dynamic play comes from pricing activity highly, and playing very positionally aggressively (he'll allow some weaknesses in his positions in order to grab space, for instance). Kasparov, though, was like a more accurate Tal, in many ways. His games inspire awe. Theyre incredible. He's probably played 100+ games more beautiful than Magnus' absolute nicest game(s). His speculative sacs are mostly approved by modern engines, even if they werent all intuitive, concrete, or easy to understand. He blew World Champions off the board in Nezhmetdinov-style, except he had the consistency in results and utter dominance over his competition that peak Magnus and Fischer had - only Kasparov did it for ~15-20 years. When Magnus beats someone, he methodically dismantles them, slowly constricting their squirming bodies until they give out. When Kasparov beat someone, he'd brutally flay them alive with the blade accuracy of Marco Pierre White, or crush them like an anvil dropping on an ant. Kasparov was someone you'd almost be afraid to play. Because if Magnus beats you, you're merely upset that you lost. If Kasparov beats you, he's liable to posterize you, to embarrass you so badly as a human being that for a time you'll never want to play chess again.

Very good analysis. But man, Kasparov was such a superstar, winning all the top tournaments, playing against supercomputer was a big story back in the day. Michael Jordan of chess for sure.

Anand put it very well. But the comment section reveals how much they misunderstood his comment.. and anyway, it's completely unfair to compare players of different eras.. you never know what would happen if a Capablanca or Fischer or Morphy who trained with engines and neural networks time travelled to play with Carlsen.. I can imagine that it would be nearly impossible to beat a Capablanca who trains with Leela and Stockfish.. . Yes, even for Carlsen.

[JohnSmith-oekx]

Excellent insight from one of the greatest players of all time: Magnus is a more universal player than Garry but came along in the compter era, which might have an influence.

[akshay]

London system was not harmed in this video😂😂😂

[rajaryan]

virat kohli ( magnus carlson) vs sachin tendulkar(gary kasparov)

[prakharsrivastava]

You have played against both Magnus and Garry at the peak of there powers 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[wolfgangwiesinger]

Gary said it more than ones, every generation learns from the previous, but i think he would have adapted to Carlsen's style.

[themanwhoknewtoomuch]

I like how the thumbnail makes it look like Vishy caught amongst mugshots of two Italian mob

[The_Scouts_Code]

the difference between greatness and being the best.

[TheGoldFrame]

Computers learnt Chess playing Garry and Magnes uses computers, that's the difference between them two. Garry is GOAT

[Hemachandrat]

I strongly feel there will be an another complete player above the
BTW.. I love Tal games. He is someone who brings out that essence from the game and make you feel.. Wow... What? Wait...wait....

[yvesm.]

It's not fair to compare players from different eras. The question is how much of a gap was there between one player and their peers at that time.
