    A World Championship game where the engine bars jumps all over the place after every move because there are so many tactics that both players don't find the most computer-accurate move. Have we seen anything like this in a long time?

    Wondering if Ding’s Re1-e2 move looked like a passive defence of f2 with a possibility of swinging across to c2 later, making Ian forget it was still on the e-file and perfectly entitled to move forwards. I’ve had blind spots like this myself, but obviously a World Championship contender would hope to be better than that!

    Spassky once said that if your opponent makes a inaccuracy do not try to punish it immediately just wait as another one is sure to follow. Then it is easier to make good inroads to his position. I think players like Fischer, Morphy and Kasparov would have punished Ian for the loss of tempo with the bc8-d7-g4 moves. The blunders by both players in this Championship are awful. It will go down as the worst one ever played. Ian should never be allowed to play in one again due to the insane fastness of his moves that prove to fatal when what is needed is deep thought and steady nerves which Ian does not have.

    • @pineapplesareyummy6352
      @pineapplesareyummy6352 Год назад

      I agree with you this World Championship has been full of blunders. But on what basis do you say "Ian should never be allowed to play in one again"? Remember he won the Candidates Tournament by 1.5 points, and had his candidacy confirmed with 2 full rounds still to play. Whatever his style of play, he totally dominated the field and was thoroughly deserving of playing another World Championship. It's just that Magnus Carlsen chose not to defend, as we would probably expect a very similar result as last time. Magnus Carlsen is just too far ahead of everyone else in the field. But that doesn't say much about what is below him. Everyone has weaknesses at the moment. Even great solid players like Caruana have been playing badly, that's why he (and others) are going down in rankings. Nepo and Ding are already #2 and #3 by ratings points. They are the best the world has to offer besides Magnus.

    I've never seen worse play in a World Championship than in this one. F5 is a mistake that a 1500 coffeehouse player wouldn't make. First half of the game, Ding's play was very passive. Second half of the game, Nepo must have missed at least 5 wins. Sure the game was "exciting" but for all the wrong reasons.

    @henrysawson2165 Год назад +3

    Great coverage and analysis as always EC 👍. This may be the elephant in the room but I think it needs saying: There is no way Magnus would have played like this. Magnus would have won as either black or white at various times and in various positions throughout the game. Fabi's commentary indicated that he understood the position(s) better than the players. History will look back on this as a second rate world championship where the best player in the world by a country mile was not in attendance (similar to Fischer's refusal to defend). I do not view this as a proper World Championship. I am happy to be corrected by anyone reading who holds a different opinion on this matter.

    • @pineapplesareyummy6352
      @pineapplesareyummy6352 Год назад +1

      Fischer's case was different. Anatoly Karpov turned out to have been a worthy and dominant World Champion who would be the best player in the world for a decade until Kasparov dethroned him. In any case, Fischer's mental state after becoming World Champion was already becoming questionable, so there is every chance he could have lost to Karpov, maybe fear was the reason he didn't want to play. But here, I am very doubtful either Nepo or Ding could replicate Karpov's success.
