Nepo is the final boss of the Candidates man. If he wins a third time surely that’s history, I mean to win it twice is already a stunning performance, and what a game this was, holy sheeet!
He can win it, dude will chock again.
Did you choke before making it to the end of an eight-word sentence?
Only Korchnoi and Ian has done it?
Winning candidates 3 times in a row means you also lost in the WCC match 2 times in a row, which sounds like a very unlikely scenario, so I indeed wouldn't be surprised if he was the first if he won this Candidates as well
@@charliegarcia6677ain't no chance ding wins anyone from nepo, fabi based on his current form
Bring back brilliancy prize!
This is the thing about nepo. He can play crazy fast in games he’s probably unprepared for and play an incredible game, or he can be slow and lazy and make stupid moves and lose a won match. One of my favourites.
Ian is working with Jan Gustaffson, Magnus' former head of preparation for every single of his WCCs, who is also the leading 1.e4 e5 expert, especially when it comes to the Spanish. Alireza is insane for playing into Ian's prep here
Yep, I agree, one of the favorites of mine too. You never know which Nepo you are going to see.
"And here Yan boldly goes where no man has gone" , loved this one 😊😊
Something I noticed is that Agad's videos receive fewer likes than they're supposed to because he's not like other RUclipsrs who annoyingly beg for likes on their videos. But covering three candidate match analyses in a day? I would gladly ask for likes for his videos: Smash the like button, guys!
Why would I *smash* it? A light tap is sufficient.
True
I never like a video when asked to, nor ever sub if asked to.
I appreciate Agad not begging for charity.
I liked this video not only for the content but because you are right
Agad's videos are an auto-like for me. I hit like on every video before it even starts. It's the least I can do in return for countless hours of great game analysis.
Ian's always like this .. he play poor prior to candidates and somehow activates the god form in candidates and goes on to beat everyone
Then loses the championship match lol
Magnus destroyed NEPO in candidates . But it was FABI the real man to go on with 18 draws with Magnus in World Chess Championship Tournament.
@@manasuniyal2897 Would you lick Fabi's feet if he let you?
@@manasuniyal2897 magnus and nepo never played in candidates together bro
honestly its not so much that nepo reaches a higher level but oddly in the candidates people play stupid against him. He plays the berlin and they overpush, sacrifice material and he wins by just being solid and not flashy.
Agad is on fire! Covering all the candidates games on such high quality! Congrats
He truly is a legend
Honestly its amazing to see 3 wins in a round. Most games are draws in this thing
@@sunburn74 4 wins
Ian is like "Okay y'all can keep sleeping on me every year"
Hope he doesn't fumble the bag again
Because the dude chokes in big games. Mahmoud even said the same thing, dude hasn’t improved
He showed up fat and out of shape for a world championship. Someone needs to tell him mens sana in corpore sano
@@camreese Ding is even more ridiculously out of shape, what a little pencil guy. He looks too fragile to even go for a walk on the pavement from hotel to the supermarket to buy a sandwich.
Magnus shows them both how it's done! Probably one further reason he dominates chess so much and is even above and beyond the mere peasant "world champion" title!
@@charliegarcia6677he doesn't choke in the candidates
One of those busiest days for Agadmator
Also best wishes for Nepo
busyness = business.
Nepo deserves to be the world champ. Hope he makes it this time.
1000000000000000 percent! I love this guy! Just winning the candidates 3 years in a row would make history. Cmon big man! We believe in ya!
Does Magnus care who is the World Chess Champion right beneath him?
So does Fabi. Probably came closest to dethroning Carlsen.
Fabi?
Nepo is my favourite player and always will be. I just love this dude. His losses were heart breaking. If he wins this again and gets a rematch, this has all the parts needed for a Blockbuster Hollywood movie. I will always root for him. He really deserves this. He has made some blunders in the past, but the guy is a beast. Also quite humble. C'mon big man! We believe in you!!!!
I love how the two queens just kept staring each other down while all hell broke loose around them
Very glad to see the classic Nepo
I believe Nepo is showing Magnus that there is actually no one worthy of playing him besides him. Because there was a time whereby Magnus said he would only face Alireza for the world champion match. Bravo Nepo.
Really impressive game from Nepo. And Alireza definitely has that fighting spirit. Nepo’s wild but somehow solid style has faired him well against Alireza, who is a master tactician and attacker. Nepo always seems to complicate well enough to get sufficient counter play.
We thank you for all your work Antonio, you remain the best chess analysis channel on youtube, calm, smart, concise and best off all, no drama, no shouting, no unnecessary overreactions like a five years old kid.
Keep up the good work and best wishes to your family.
This makes the draw from Nijat with Nepo in Round 1 that much more impressive. Nepo is a monster
Wait until round 8 where Nepo got white against Abasov
When there isn't pression is just a beast, you can see during the match how much he enjoyed it
We will see what Fabi has to say about it.
Also: Mybe you want to downgrade that to "Monsterlet." Ian and Ding are both just monsterlets.
The whole WCC is overshadowed by the over-dominant Magnus who presumably already has transcended that mere peasant-level pedestrian Candidates tournament. (An unsatisfactory and frustrating state of affairs if you ask me.)
@@franzlyonheart4362 I respectfully disagree. Magnus is not the be-all-end-all chess champion of all time, he's only been the champ for 10 consecutive years with 5 championship titles. To put it in perspective, Lasker reigned for 27 years with 6 titles, Kasparov with 15 years and 6 titles, Karpov with 16 yrs and 6 ttles, Botvinnik with 13 yrs and 5 titles, and finally Alekhine with 17 yrs and 4 titles. From my POV, Magnus dropped out to pursue other entrepreneurial activities with potentially higher ROI
@@supperhey i think Kasparov is #1, but Magnus could be #2.
Antonio, I know you want to cover the games as soon as possible, but know that we will wait for you my man. No need to rush the games. Get some sleep, give us the videos on your own time. We Love You
As much as I feel like Fabi would beat any of these guys in a 1v1 14-game match, somehow Nepo seems to have an absurd talent for farming everyone in the Candidates
Alireza played for win by black and refused draw and everybody commneted nepo is a monster! lol
Yes you're right if he wanted a draw he could have it but i think he wants to win this game dearly cuz of two successive previous losses against him but yea helluva match this was
Thank you for your effort of staying up late and uploading these analyses. I now understood this complex game.
Just as you mentioned it, I was also thinking of a Brilliancy Prize.
Bravo Antonio. Uživam i jedva čekam sledeći video. I vreme je da Nipo uzme titulu. Poz iz Srbije.
Most Interesting is that in 1st round all 4 games were drawn and in 2nd all 4 games were decisive, the odds of that happening were 0.24%
how do you do the math there?
@@abdjahdoiahdoai considering 1/3 chance of any game being a draw, the chance of all 4 being draw is (1/3)^4 = 1/81, now all second games being not draw is 1 minus (1/3)^4 = 16/81, and when you multiply 1/81 and 16/81, we get 16/6561, which is 0.00243
@@dhairyasonpal5450 the odds Are not equal ... The odds of nijat wins less than the the draw and odds of draw less than losing
@@mohamedqandeel6594 for the sake of simplicity, it was considered, it may be slightly here or there, even if you calculate using their rating, the odds will not be too far, all 4 draws and then all 4 decisive will still be between 0.2% to 0.4%, which is amazing that it happened
@@mohamedqandeel6594 exactly. A draw does NOt have probability 1/3rd. In fact, it isn't even that surprising that the first round is a bit drawish -- candidates still getting acquainted with the venue etc.
Instead, he ought to have used the Elo system to calculate the most likely probabilities of the actual outcomes -- as a reminder the Elo system is based on statistical probability estimates, by its very design.
thank you for all the vids agadmtor :)
Three videos in such a short time is crazy dedication man
Brilliancy prize for your analysis sir!
On behalf of all the chess fans thank you for your hard work and dedication. I know you have a daughter a family and other obligations but we appreciate how quickly you are getting these videos on stream. Its a special time for chess fans and your coverage enhances our experience and makes our days just a little bit better. Thank you.
I presume that Agad's main family income now comes from YT and he is doing this full time. This will leave him a lot of spare time during the day to look after his small young family. Well deserved, he is outstandingly entertaining.
That's what hard work is! Give this man his likes!
Nepo loves crushing fizzy.
Farmer fizzy not making use of his undeserving invite to the candidates
That Ali slipping himself into the candidates the way he did was quite dodgy, I agree.
Wow really surprised you were able to upload another Game for us Agad Much Thanks Strong game by Nepo with the Bishop pair from hell Alireza just couldn’t freak the funk against Nepo Thanks for the game hope you get some rest tks a lot
Agadmator is a beast!!
I beat the hard difficulty chess computer on Delta Airlines today. I found that if you just play defensive then the computer is so hesitant to trade pieces that it starts doing pointless moves
Great game
Thank you for working the night shift Agad!
I would like to see the evaluation bar in these games!
All hail The Candidates Boss!
...one of the sharpest games ,played in the candidates...
Excellent game by Nepo!
I think Nepo's style particularly suits the candidates, because in this tournament players tend to go for wins more than in other tournaments. When players go for wins against him he seems to be very good at exploiting any inaccuracies.
It's when he comes up against more conservative play or long endgames when he is weaker, like he did against Magnus in their match.
What a game!
I noticed in the Pragg, Gunesh game when you showed the picture in the background you could see this game.
The joy started
🔥🔥🔥
Beatiful game, full of complications, maybe Alireza took too much risks?
They really should bring the brilliancy prize back
Thank you for "oculated" 11:49 !
Nepo deserves the championship for his persistence. Truly remarkable!
was thinking " what should I eat to dinner?" Lol
Hey guys where can I get the schedule of the matches ? Like who will play against who etc
On the photo Nepo was thinking what he should eat for dinner. But then he got so hungry he ate Alireza.
In a classical climate where it's all too common to see top players try and force draws (especially w/ black), I appreciate Alireza's creative effort, which delivered a really interesting game. Great D by Nepo.
When in the "pause the video" moment, the first move that comes to my mind is the best move, I can feel my ELO rising.
4:11 PETER SVIDLER. Didnt hear anything about him. Such a great player
Great game by Nepo. I can’t believe how much stronger he seems to play in the candidates compared to other classical events.
I'm watching the video and I'm thinking to myself from the beginning I've seen this video before. Then around about move eight it changes. Do all the high-ranking chess players use the same opening moves?
As far as I can tell different openings seem to come into style at different times. This year in the candidates the ruy Lopez seems popular (with the white bishop on b5), while in other years and other tournaments different ideas are 'coming into vogue,' and everyone wants to try them out. I don't really know why this happens (or if it really happens at all - I could be seeing something that's not there). Maybe the engines are getting updated and revealing new ideas in certain openings that players then want to try out?
@@jamessweeney5459 I play against an engine and I find the randomness of the opening moves to be very difficult to play against.
@9:30 pawn g5 is hanging. Nepo takes with knight e4, if bishop e7 takes it's checkmate with Qg7.
...unleashing the real monster that was dormant on C3... sounds great like an exerpt taken from Tolkenian Moria stuff.
Btw, Nepo on this war on the board is a real coldblooded beast so far.
Btw, you deserve briliancy prize for a commentary to this battle.
As usual Agadmator has the best coverage of the big tournaments - most other sites only interested in the Indian competitors ( men and women ) - thank you
I was waiting thank you 🙌🏻
I wanted Alireza to win the candidates but it looking tough
Alireza is over and didn't study to reach his prime in time
How did I find the g4 move I don’t know didn’t look that far 😅
Brilliancy prizes should be a thing again to encourage bold play
Would love to see Nepo win it all this year. Then beat Magnus to defend his title in the future.
Nice T-Shirt Antonio
I love watching Nepo in the candidates! Awesome chess
Unleashing the real monster of this game 😁😁
Respect to Ian's incredible performance; game is just unbeliavable; boldly mastering Alireza;
Great coverage Agadmator as usual. Ps my uncle happens to be the best player in our club!!
Give my best to the uncle!
Bring back the brilliance prizes!
I thought the title was predicting 3 time winner of the candidates for Nepo.
I’d like to see the Brillancy award come back.
It looks like Agadmator will be getting up and going to bed at odd hours for the next two weeks. That's what happens if you live in Croatia covering a tournament in Canada.
Somebody should have sponsored him a ticket to Toronto to cover it right from there. He's far and wide the most entertaining chess channel for us lowly Elo chess hobbyist spectators.
ian 'ahead on time' nepomniatchi
Sorry for yhe wierd question but what happen to agadmator dog i don't see it any more?
At 17:38, why not Qf5+? Is it bc of Qe4 offering a trade to just simplify the game?
Rooting for Nepo!
"I'm probably going to show that game, but tomorrow, because it's already 3am" - Agad, that IS tomorrow. You are already 1/8 of the way through tomorrow. Your dedication astounds me.
one reason alireza is so fun to watch he plays for a win. even when he loses his games are always fun to watch
Magnus already said it “Nepo is the most talenteded player alive” not only that, when asked Magnus also said that Nepo is the one who is the most genius or has that genius aura. The problem with Nepo is his anxiety of playing fast sometimes without thinking and his emotional state. He reminds a little bit of Magnus back in the day when he gets pissed off and also a little bit of Hikaru saying “Idgaf”, but man, you have to care. Maybe thats why Magnus is WC and neither Nepo nor Hikaru are Champions. But for sure Nepo is the great monster of chess nowadays.
Who else wishes Wei Yi was here to educate the masses on the art of destruction
👏
Hikaru against Magnus, Alireza against Ian, and they BOTH use a surprise d5 in the opening? I reckon they must have planned this.
please append timestamp, thanks
see only magic here!!!!
Not another Nepo in he final!
❤
Love you yoda
14:27 Queen to h4 wins hard for firouzja
It’s never boring chess with Alireza
Kd3 warrants a win for Nepo! Nothing less suffices for him.
There's no hope. All my favourites are losing
How can Ali be your favoured one, the way he farmed himself into the candidates was dodgy, at best.
Don’t worry Agad, we are honoured to host the candidates this year but Toronto is the entire country’s favourite punching bag. They’re like the 3rd cousin in the family that you don’t want to spend time with but will always fight for. Welcome to Canadian time
Dominating play by Nepo
Damn these photos are really grainy
its turning to be a firey tournament already! EXCITEMENT LVL MAXEDOUTTTT
Alireza looks like The Riddler
Nepo is the kind of player who runs into prep in the Candidates and plays faster than you 🤣🤣
New youngest Turkish GM videos pls 🙏
Alireza is not playing as expected
Well, Nepo isn't as easily farmed as ex- GM's who may or may not have been paid just to show up …
