Yeah, it's because he literally conserves all his mana to cast his ultimate during candidates but by the time he comes to WCC match his mana is enough to cast only 1-2 simple spells and then he has 0. Then the cycle restarts, he conserves mana doing nothing until the next candidates. Then loses WCC match not being able to cast his ultimate, yare yare
Cause he's trash; candidats is literally the only tournament where he's semi decent. This rat hides all he's tactics for the entire season until this one competition
Not only that, he never lost a single game in all three Candidates tournaments. And after ALL (!!) of his 33 games in the Candidates, to this day, he has held the top 1 spot, either alone or sharing it with somebody. His overall performance with white in the Candidates is about 2900. And people still think he's not a favorite 😂😂
I still lose it everytime I watch that clip of him saying that him and Hikaru are just better at chess than the others. It sounds so arrogant but it probably didn't even occur to Magnus. He's just spitting facts.
yea he saves his best for canidates nepo will win and easily beat ding for the championship! Will also say whoever wins will beat ding as he's playing 2500 chess right now which is kinda sad.

I seriously dislike FIDE so anything that pisses them off is a win in my book. I've also been thinking that if Hikaru actually becomes world champion this year, Magnus may decide to try and challenge Hikaru next year. It would be absolutely amazing!
Man gukesh is most underrated, i mean in most of the tournament, he is in top 2-3 and yet people take him so lightly. His rapid and blitz game can definately improve but in classical, i dont think anyone, among the youngesters, can calculate better then him. A slight mistake, with required timd and he will eat u alive. I really dont know why people just cant see, may be they dont watch him rhat often.
Imo, I think Magnus is in part ranking the juniors lower because of the immense pressure of the tournament that they’re not used to, not because he thinks they’re substantially worse players or don’t have the talent to win. To be fair, that’s shown some this Candidates with the juniors in particular really having time scrambles that have led to losses, and this is the same problem Alireza had last year in the candidates. I think Alireza is an incredibly strong player, but struggles to handle the mental duress on the top stage, and Magnus felt like many of the juniors would have to adjust to the pressure. Even more experienced players like Ding had that problem in the last World Championship. I do think he thinks Fabi and Hikaru are the strongest players in the tournament, but he’s not saying Gukesh or anyone else is weak. I haven’t followed Gukesh much in particular more than others, but I’ve heard he can be swing heavy and is a classical beast but weaker in other formats. I believe Magnus said he was his most difficult match in the World Cup. That being said, I think Gukesh has a great chance to win if he can avoid tiebreaks. I would love to see Fabi win as his chances only get worse from here and I don’t want him to go down in history as the best player to never win a WCC, especially after his psychological decline losing in 2018, but right now it seems like it’s Gukesh’s tournament to win with the remaining schedule. If Fabi can’t win, I’m pulling for him! I also just hope Nepo doesn’t win, not that I don’t like him, but I don’t want to see him crumble again and would rather see someone else get their shot.
with Carlsen, Gukesh just a newbie. He 17 yearsold so not surprised when carlsen dont know a lot about Gukesh. Carlsen still destroy Ding, Ian, Gukesh or anyone.
If the winner is to be decided based on strengths then why do they even hold these tournaments? The top rated player should be considered the champion. Just like Hikaru could have beaten Vidit and topped the leader board others also could have beaten him and climbed up the leader board right? So the one who has a cool presence of mind would eventually win and in this case Hikaru lagged behind gukesh.
Praggs knowledge of chess theory far exceeds gukesh and he's a far more stable player. Gukesh has often had spells where he does really poorly whereas pragg although he can have a bad day here and there, it never persists for long. This is clear even if you just look at their journey once they both hit 2700. Gukesh has been erratic, falling rlly low at times and then back up whereas pragg has been slowly but very steadily climbing up with barely any significant drops. Pragg also has a very fearless mentality remaining calm under high pressure situations against the very top players. Ofcourse you can argue this candidates gukesh has been on par with pragg but you need to consider who's been more consistent in terms of past history as well.
latest update - likely to win - Gukesh/Nepo. Top Contenders - Prag, Hikaru. Will do well - Caruana, Vidit. Will do poorly - alireza, in for a bad time - abasov
It is still really close. Alireza and Abasov are deffinetly out, but the difference beetween the 1st and the 6th place is 1 point. Anyithing can happen.
@@ankitraghav23can’t say Magnus was completely wrong coz Magnus predicted the result based on players experience and other stuffs. Proud of Gukesh winning the tournament tho.
For me personally its more impressive to win the candidates then the wcc match. The diffrence is you have to prepare for way more opponents with diffrent playstyles and it is way more exhausting.
Gukesh watched this before the tournament & used this as fuel (You may have seen him meditating at the beginning of the game, he would be surely remembering these words from mag) Chad Gukesh 🗿
@@chandanpatil9936 I'm not sure whether he was confident to win candidates (reason is He would be thanking magnus as he got his replacement, so psychologically it's luck) But he tried very hard in the first 9 games.
It's almost like Magnus is saying what Hikaru is thinking about Ian, and he's glad that he's not the only one who thinks it, but is even more glad that he wasn't the one who had to say it, whilist *making fun* of magnus saying it. Sneaky sneaky
Magnus Prediction: Tier 1: Fabi, Hikaru Tier 2: Ian, Tier 3: Firoujza, Pragg Tier 4: Gukesh, Vidit Tier 5: Abasov Reality Tier 1: Gukesh Tier 2: Ian, Hikaru, Fabi Tier 3: Pragg Tier 4: Vidit, Firoujza Tier 5: Abasov Honestly he was actually quite accurate, but he bet on the wrong Indian youngster to have a strong tournament!
even on that video, I commented that gukesh should be on the same level as ian rest of the list is fine, and pragg fanboys, as usual attacked me saying pragg better and all that, but I would still say it, gukesh is currently the best classical player in india.
When was this recorded? Hikaru putting himself on top over Ian is kinda strange. Also Magnus roasting Nepo so bad doesn't seem right, Nepo won two consecutive Candidates and first half of the World Championship Match was extremaly equal with maybe just a tiny slight edge for Ian. He started collapsing after painful loss.
The Magnus video was definitely pre-candidates, because I saw it. I have no idea when this was recorded though. Hikaru may have been holding on to it to see if he did okay in the first half before releasing it.
The predictions Hikaru gave are not "actual" predictions, but rather predictions of what Magnus will predict. The Magnus video was obviously recorded pre-candidates, probably same with this video.
@@moatef1886 Well Im not counting Ding as the context is thinking about who should have actually made the candidates. But Yup, better than all else u named.

Gukesh has had a great tournament and has proved us all wrong, so has vidit. Great job from India, I hope Fabi Hikaru find a way to recover before the tournament is over.
11:05 Hikaru laughing on Vidit - strange. The fact is Hikaru didn't win the Candidates just because he lost both his games against Vidit. Take a look at the score!!!
It does makes sense that Magnus view of Ian would be scewed considering how well he used to play against Magnus which he hasnt done the last few years.
Looking at how the events turned out this interview is a classical example of not judging a book by its cover. He looked a total genius then only until the truth was out
I think will do poorly would be between finishing with between 3.5 and 7 points, and in for a bad time is below 3.5/14. There is usually that one under 2700 in the candidates who just gets destroyed
Agreed. I feel like the tier list was constructed to mean: 1. who will win, 2. who will be 2nd/3rd, 3. who will be 4th/5th, 4. who will be 6th/7th, and who will be dead last, but they tried to be too polite about it and it ended up sounding vague.
More than halfway in the tournament and his only correct prediction is about Abasov doing poorly. Still 5 rounds to go and things can change hugely. His predictions have gone pretty much as any other sport predictions go. Nepo is trying to win the tournament by not loosing any games.
Everybody shitting on Ian, but fact is he’s just a notch above everybody else (minus only magnus himself and maybe fabiano caruana is equal). And for that reason he is simply very likely to just win again
Gukesh is doing really well for now but actual pressure is now gonna start building and most probably gonna blunder some game and mess up. I am a huge Gukesh and Vidit fan but they always get the hype and then mess up at end. They are new to handling pressure. It always hurts to see them lose after going till the end. Nepo is good at handling pressure in candidages.
We will see their 100% game play in the second half for sure. Most of the candidates always trying to draw the first half just to find out what kind of preparation their opponents have. So that they can counter it on the second half. For sure, next half will be more exciting 😊
About Gukesh _ Magnus says - I CANNOT IMAGINE HIM WINNING BUT I COULD SEE HIM BEING ANYWHERE FROM +2 TO -5...WILL HAVE SOME FAIRLY BAD LOSSES AS WELL. READY TO EAT HUMBLE PIE MAGNUS CARLSEN??? 🤣🤣🤣

He needs to move his stats to his mana and purchase some of the mana potions (3 gold)

meanwhile gukesh proving them wrong
magnus is an alireza believer. so much he picks him to do well in candidates 😂
6:12 Magnus just destroying Ian lmao
Ian Nepomniachtchi king ❤🎉
Gukesh took this personally 😂🗿
It does makes sense that Magnus view of Ian would be scewed considering how well he used to play against Magnus which he hasnt done the last few years.
Gukesh been cooking this tournament
Gukesh rlly just said surprise magnus
Nakas obsession of cagnus marlson makes him a beta player , not champion material.
Looking at how the events turned out this interview is a classical example of not judging a book by its cover. He looked a total genius then only until the truth was out
I think will do poorly would be between finishing with between 3.5 and 7 points, and in for a bad time is below 3.5/14. There is usually that one under 2700 in the candidates who just gets destroyed
Agreed. I feel like the tier list was constructed to mean: 1. who will win, 2. who will be 2nd/3rd, 3. who will be 4th/5th, 4. who will be 6th/7th, and who will be dead last, but they tried to be too polite about it and it ended up sounding vague.
Love how honest Magnus is. Also shows how well he knows the the game and players.
Gukesh Laughing in corner after winning Candidates.🇮🇳
More than halfway in the tournament and his only correct prediction is about Abasov doing poorly. Still 5 rounds to go and things can change hugely. His predictions have gone pretty much as any other sport predictions go. Nepo is trying to win the tournament by not loosing any games.
the next video being "FEMALE VOCAL TRANCE LEDGENDS" has me dead 💀0:24
Hawk eye 👀😅🔥
Trance is a type of music not what's in ur head 😂
yeah lol
@@amirhosseinetemad3094dude, even at 0.25x speed its still hard to read anything. This guy is the flash 😂
Hikaru complaining about the 2 categories being redundant and repeating it 3 times 😍
Everybody shitting on Ian, but fact is he’s just a notch above everybody else (minus only magnus himself and maybe fabiano caruana is equal). And for that reason he is simply very likely to just win again
And as of today, gukesh and nepo are at top with 5 points each followed by Hikaru and Pragg at 4.5 points each.
poor predictions seems like Gukesh doing way better than "will do poorly" or even "will do well"
Gukesh is doing really well for now but actual pressure is now gonna start building and most probably gonna blunder some game and mess up. I am a huge Gukesh and Vidit fan but they always get the hype and then mess up at end. They are new to handling pressure. It always hurts to see them lose after going till the end. Nepo is good at handling pressure in candidages.
@@morgoth8815 Gukesh is in first place now
@@kenpadilla3850 Lets hope what I said doesn't true for 2 more daya
He wins the candidates and I was proved wrong.
Its look like gukash and nepo proved magnus wrong "so far"
Gukesh proved magnus totally wrong 🍿🍿, gukesh the underdog
I have a feeling that the second half of this tournament is gonna be wild and unpredictable.
There's still 7 more Rounds, you're talking as if there's only 2 Rounds remaining. Anything can happen, yet
Also Alireza😅
We will see their 100% game play in the second half for sure. Most of the candidates always trying to draw the first half just to find out what kind of preparation their opponents have. So that they can counter it on the second half. For sure, next half will be more exciting 😊
Exchange Gukesh for Ali and it's a correct prediction xd
gukesh laughing at the corner with big bad prediction .
he underestimated vidit and gukesh
Pragg too.
Thanks for pushing Gukesh 🇮🇳
New world championship incoming 👑

watching this again half way the condidates has some sensation to it, like traveling in time or smth
Oh well it happens. Cheer up Hikaru.
Magnus owns Nepo so hard 😭
Hikaru's predictions were even more terrible than Magnus. LMAO 🤣
Will do poorly guy won. Yayyyyy

Hikaru chances are getting less to qualify for candidates if you see his performance. I think nepo , fabi and Gukesh will be the top fighters
3:35 Vidit took revenge after watching this🤘🚀
About Gukesh _ Magnus says - I CANNOT IMAGINE HIM WINNING BUT I COULD SEE HIM BEING ANYWHERE FROM +2 TO -5...WILL HAVE SOME FAIRLY BAD LOSSES AS WELL. READY TO EAT HUMBLE PIE MAGNUS CARLSEN??? 🤣🤣🤣
Guki be like I will show Magnus what I am made of and rethink his decision
His predictions were pretty accurate. But, Gukesh came out of syllabus.
If Naka win the candidates and become world champ, than Magnus will win the candidates 2026 to create history in chess together with Naka.
