Nepo on Magnus taking interest in his match: 'I Literally Don't Care' 😂

Very efficient use of words, attack on Magnus with a discovered attack on Hikaru.

[DDP-Gaming]

Ian single handedly went after Magnus and Hikaru all in one sentence

[naseemmassalha]

Believe me this literally was the most chess relatable question at the post match conference and this was Nepo's most rational answer xD

[ultrasound]

Ian: I literally don't care.
Reporter: well said...thank you for that.

[MatsMatsuo]

“First they laugh at you, then they start to literally not care”

NAKAMURA, Hikaru

[KevinwithaK_]

What a ridiculous question from the press. Why, in the middle of the title series, would Ian care whether or not Magnus is taking interest in the match?

[Philopantheon]

Nepo should have gone Hans way and replied "chess speaks for itself"

[namangoyal]

That "Thank you for that" in the end tho too💀

[MadaxeMunkeee]

Hikaru being acknowledged as a strong player at the WCC: 🥺

[vonolemaxle]

Nepo really is becoming a savage. His quick jabs here and there are unintentionally hilarious. Magnus being Magnus, he is very much a troll but other top GMs shouldn't poke on him too much or he'll try a redemption arc where he randomly decides to recapture his throne which he is still more than capable of doing so.

For this statement alone, I would be not surprised if Magnus come back to play the candidates next year

[andresvanpelt]

Ding on the sidelines : literally not caring either

[ParanoidBishop]

Brilliant from Nepo, a double takedown.

"I literally don't care"
Bro dissed 2 grandmasters in 4 words.

Well-handled Ian. Magnus has nothing to do with your match.

[guilherme]

Hikaru must be choking in laughter somewhere...

Stay in school kids, or you might end up being a chess reporter

[jaykovar]

'I literally don't care' is my favourite meme in chess

[BigGov]

i hope a rivalry develops and magnus returns to get his title back and ian puts up a better fight
