      @@andrewbradley3305 That was probably him when he was younger. Right now, probably bullet specialists like Andrew Tang might be marginally better. Still though, Hikaru is still very up there even with his declining bullet skills. Some random 2300 would be out of his league.

  • @blas_de_lezo7375
    @blas_de_lezo7375 2 года назад +8

    its getting harder and harder, feels some of this games are won more by his speed than because he can overcome the queen for minor piece difference. Once the game gets down to 10 seconds it seems the quality of just about everybody else drops down to slugs while hikaru remains pretty good. Its really good and interesting, lets see how far he can go.

    • @profd65
      @profd65 2 года назад +5

      There's no "overcoming" the loss of a queen against a good player: if he doesn't blunder or flag, you'll lose. You weirdly seem to think one of those ways of winning is illegitimate, even though the game being played is speed chess.

    • @Mageofpie
      @Mageofpie 2 года назад +5

      True but his ability to throw complications into the game which make his opponents waste time thinking is definitely something else. They are up so much material and still can't find a way to break through.

      or
      1Rxe5 Qh2
      2Rb5 (so it doesn't get forked again) Qh1+ and either the R on f3 or the B falls
      or
      1Qh2 R(5)f5 (so the R's protect each other, and the forks don't work)

    When you try to follow the games as a novice, but at 16:35 it essentially devolves into
    taka-taka-taka-taka-taka-taka-taka-taka
    while the opponent only goes
    taka-taka-tak...taka-tak..taka-taka...tak-taka... tak-ta....
    The most apt comparison I can come up with would be a GM's brain going 2x speed Brain Power by Noma vs 1.25x speed by the opponent.
    Nevertheless, this offers some great insight into how great minds do their work, even if it is just a fleeting glimpse of the gears that grind in the background.
