*when hikaru and magnus face each other* : _respekt_

*when their fans face each other* : _So you have chosen death_

This match was one of the most entertaining SCC matches ever, for me at least. And the wholesome interview with Magnus really topped if off perfectly. It was nice to hear all the praise and appreciation from arguably the best chess player of all time. Hikaru was rock solid, Magnus really messed it up in the first half, and made it very exciting in the end. You could see the happiness and relief in Hikaru's face when he noticed the match clock was below his own. Awesome stuff, loved the interviews! Cool to see Hikaru's reaction to this.

I dont know, but seeing the GOAT, unable to control his smile about Hikaru beating him, is one of the most genuine and wholesome things I've ever seen. We're going to see some of the best speed chess of all time in the coming years. Hikaru is no longer intimidated by Magnus, and he's playing like he does against everyone else. I always knew that they would be battling it out on top

Magnus really enjoys a good challenge. His mood was like night and day in comparison to the match against Gukesh (Magnus crushing). Secondly, this is probably the first time I see Magnus happy after a loss. Hell, most of the time he is unhappy even if he wins.

Chat is weird saying magnus is not same anymore lol, he won so many things this year that I cant even count, goat

[dermotshaw]

Love how happy hikaru is right now. It's not that he is playing better chess. He is just so much more relaxed and lie Magnus said "he's not intimidated by me anymore" great way to end a great year of competitive chess

Let’s be honest. It reached viewer numbers cause it was Mangus and Hikaru. Chess needs more of these types of these players. I’m glad I got into chess has helped me mentally get through some things. I thank y’all.

[harshjoshi]

They both have utmost respect for eachother 🙌

I’m a 38 year old beginner and obsessed with both the game and content! Half the time I don’t understand what people are talking about but hopefully someday

[kaidoChess]

I want to see Hikaru and Magnus just have a chat together

[Olebull]

My girlfriend just dumped me because of my gambling addiction.

*But I know I can win her back.*

[paulritchie]

Its crazy to see Magnus in such a good mood after losing. Giving up the championship seems to have been good for him

[Plebeian]

Magnus didn't have to give this interview, very cool. Above and beyond.

[Cage]

Undoubtedly, the most exciting and legendary matches that I have seen from these two in the SCC 2022. I don't know why but when I think about the best opponent for Hikaru, Magnus' name comes into my mind first. This is the case in the opposite way too. That's what I call "Legendary Pairing". Also, happy birthday to Hikaru!

[bozidarugljesic]

For someone Who played a competitive chess on Amateur and club level i agree whit Hikaru its that Adrenalin rush you feel during games that makes you come back every time even after a tough loss

[Epyxoid]

For some reason I was constantly smiling watching this interview 😁 So wholesome! So cool to watch! What an era to live in! What an astonishing final!

[koho]

Great to see both of them enjoy chess again. Interesting that this followed after giving up OTB chess and the World Championship.

[markrabideau]

I'm a huge Magnus fan but I'm happy for Hikaru, he earned it

[Bai_Su_Zhen]

Massive thank you to all the incredible grandmasters who decided to get together and create this awesome community out of nowhere, where a scrub like me can just watch and learn and be entertained for free. It's absolutely insane.
