I thought the title was exaggerated but wow, this was probably the best chess series to be played. Props to Magnus for offering a draw at the end to allow a final score of 13.5-12.5 instead of 14-12, because that is truly how close this series was.
Crazy for a bullet match, it's a great time to be a chess fan with two, possibly 3, players who are so amazing and head and shoulders above the competition.

magnus v hikaru has gotta be one of the best chess rivalries ever they both respect each other so much. Every match that they play against each other end up being amazing games
After the final Hikaru was asked about the rivalrie he sayed that there rrealy wasen´t one because Magnus had a very good score against him. Ok after the pandemic his score against Magnus had improved
@@TahreaGarnett I guess he means that he is never truly defeated... Like literally what he said. He may lose a game, or a tournament or even a match, but he is never truly defeated because he comes back with a vengance and wins it back!
@keithherron2705that’s why you would be pumped about it. Cause it’s insane that a human being was capable of finding that. I need at least three of me with an eval bar to find that
@@edheffyea, that's like one of those computer moves where at first you don't get what it's even trying to do, but then several moves into the sequence you think to yourself how the hell anybody would even see that as a possibility!! Definitely crazy as hell.
Well technically he is actually not even close to being the puzzle GOAT, Ray Robson holds that title without a doubt. I think he is a 4 time consecutive puzzle world champion now, and he has outperformed Hikaru several times. Hikaru obviously crushes him in actual games but when it comes to pure puzzle solving Hikaru doesn't stand a chance.
The beautiful thing about this match : it’s not like one guy plunder a piece and the other takes advantage, those guys are finding brilliant moves and crushing each other
I began watching Levy during the Chess World Cup 23'. The guy is a commentary genius, and I watch his videos from start to finish, with much love from South Africa. Keep at it Levy! Great content.
In this video we saw: levy turn into an elephant, Magnus take off his shirt, hikaru play en passant and Levy trying to pronounce the weirdest opening names in existence
Lets be real , Magnus gets the most clcks and makes the most money for Levy and his channel. Hes open about this and generally tries to make a genuine product for his viewers

The energy levy employs when narrating games is captivating. I watched all 33 minutes and it felt like 5

One of the games they played was 161 moves long, and Magnus played at 98.1 and Hikaru at 99.3

the craziest thing about this match is the fact that hikaru and magnus's average accuracies are 89.9% and 90% respectively lmao. truly the best duo
Yea They both played a game with 99 accuracy and went like 3850 Elo stockfish 3 games in a row
And there is that huge game that Magnus lost with 98%, these guys are completely insane
even crazier that this 90% is magnus' lowest average accuracy of all his matches this event lol

What an incredible set. The gloves were off. Magnus finishing that final brutal scramble by offering a draw was a sign of massive respect.

“Are you not entertained!?”
Nice Gladiator quote at the end. 😂

What are you on about, he lost the last one😅😅
