Why is there so much malice in people? A man has won a lot recently, and when he loses once and draws three times in a classic game, he is suddenly criticized from all sides. It's obvious that sometimes he will do well and sometimes not. The fact that he says he wants to play good games and have fun shows that he tries to approach the tournament without pressure. And after losing, people can write things like: "He lost to Vidit, so he has his content". Why? The other players with the same number of points are supported, and Hikaru, although his score is worse than many people expected, is criticized.
I wholeheartedly concur with your viewpoint. Hikaru not only possesses exceptional skills as a player but also exemplifies remarkable moral values, making him truly distinguished.
This is the Internet. People are being mean here without a reason. The anonymity helps, also.
When you’re as visible as him everything he says is going under the microscope. Somebody as popular as him are going to have detractors and supporters, that’s just how it goes.
people are mad because he keeps saying streaming is more important , instead of saying . im here to win.
those are the comments i have read recently.
@@usuariocelular8065 The fact that he says streaming is more important to him doesn't surprise me, it's what his life is based on, it doesn't mean he's not here to win either.
hikaru after round 1 : Iam here to play exciting chess unlike last 20 years of boring chess
after round 3 : my opponent was solid with white and could not do much
after round 4 : my opponent was solid with black and could not do much , why do you guys do not do recaps ?
I thought the interviewer did a wonderful job with his questions
He missed the welcome back everyone, I would say it is a blunder.
The chess24 chat in the broadcast was hilarious lol.
True
I appreciate that Hikaru does his best to not only be a good chess player, but also a good entertainer! Entertaining a lot of fans with good content is an art, and to me it seems, he is quite good at it. As are Levy, Eric, Ben, Andrea, Alexandra, and quite a few others. I enjoy chess all ways!
Andrea and Alexandra just scream and capitalise on being attractive girls lol come on now
Anna does that way less for example, she's just the cheerful next door girl who happens to be a titled player
This is a great interview, asking good and pointed questions that the guest is willing to elaborate on. You got a great answer, it's really well done!
I agree with Nakamura, chess people should show more to the public and put themselves out there. But that's my selfish POV, I get it if someone just wants to study the game and not deal with fans. But they should consider that if more people want to watch, then they'll attract more sharp minds to the game and the prize pool will increase - so it's not just good for the fans but it's good for chess and for chess nerds too.
Positive vibes all the way! ✨
sometimes it seems like he's not talking about the most important world championship in the world but rather about a neighborhood tournament
Hikaru is right. You don't have to do anything to help promote the game, but if you are going to complain about the prize pools, then you better be doing something to help promote the game, or else you are a hypocrite. It's a similar argument to complaining about elections, while also claiming that you don't vote.
And this is my first time learning of an eclipse. It gets dark every day, so what's the big deal? I cared about that stuff when I was an impressionable child, but now that I'm older I really don't see what the fuss is about.
I agree with you about the promoting. I wish you could be more poetic about eclipses! The solar ones at least
Watch an eclipse once and you figure it out.
"I cared about what was happening in the universe when I was a child, but now..."
@@thebermudaI But now he cares about a board game.
Again the fans? No one plays the candidates for the fans, or for content.
i have not been entertained thus far by Hikaru.
Fortunately, we have Pragg...
You have now!
@@LordBoston123 ooooohhhhhh yes i agree. well done, Hikaru.
Maybe there are hopes for Hikaru with the recent wins, so you won’t stay bored lol
already have responded to this lol
It's so convenient to Hikaru with his "literally doesn't care" persona and him saying he just wants to enjoy so he can escape the criticism with his play
Eh I mean I think he still cares I think he just wants us to know that he takes streaming as priority over chess as a career. Ofc that’s not an excuse for his subpar performances
@@WarriorsFan-ob3rt it's okay for him to make streaming his priority since that's where he got more money but this candidates tournament should be about winning and it's a big disrespect to the other candidates talking about taking this tournament lightly
@@Im_him69-this doesn’t make any sense. If the player with the white pieces wants a draw then there is nothing he could have done
@@AhsanGaming133And today also he couldn't do anything because the player with black wanted a draw. Looks like he just wants his opponents to talk all the risk while he'll play risk free but they're not as stupid as he thinks them to be.
You could tell he doesn’t care by his facial contortions against Vidit when he was losing.
When did hikaru say anything about the fans?
Thanks for sharing.
Master of The comic reactions ♥
When Naka talks about his fans, he's really worried about his ego. They are the support mechanism that keep his over-inflated self-esteem alive.
Sounds like an Excuse to Not Fight.
Come on Hikaru, We love to See a
Fight on the Board. 🤷🏻♂️
Wait...Hikaru was born in 1987...Halley's Comet was last seen in 1986.... he probably means Comet Hale-Bopp? ;)
Hikaru just does not CARE!! Which ironically is not what you want in a world chess championship!! 😂
thats what he wants you to believe when he just can't win
Yes, that and solid wins…
I think he clearly stated that the tournament is a long haul, and if he is relaxed now, it means that he is saving his breath for later.
@@zvonimirtosic6171 But don’t his fans always say he just doesn’t care?
@@thetaxiucla "doesn't care" is a meme...it isn't his actual beliefs.
Hikaru in Board Chess - 🤡
Hikaru in Online Chess - 😎
he is in the candidates... hes #3 in the world... hes drawn the #2 player in the world... how is he a clown?
@@SeanMaddenBMX #3 now because he's playing less and is picky on tournaments he plays, when he was competing as a chess professional he was barely in the top ten.
@@detectivemarkseven r u new to this??
@@riddhimaraj549 no
Useless like really ? He is a GM and whata te you again . When you are a GM then we'll talk@@navymalfunction9710
everybody really doesn't get it don't they. this is the candidates, Chess at it's highest level. so what it he loses or draws a few games. that's natural at this level, you cant judge the guy for doing what he can to get a result. sure he might not be winning any games yet but there is still a lot of games to be played. his form is currently poor but thats just how it is.
Oh very well articulated
What on earth is he saying about fans and sponsors etc.? I didn't understand a word of it.
He meant that chess could be more popular if other top players promoted the game more on social media like he does.
This is what banks and investors are looking for. A horse that keeps on running, a painter that keeps on painting. Not a brilliant talent that performs a brilliant sacrifice once every third year, and dies alone in a hotel room. There you go! A lesson to everyone born 2005! Me? Born 1974. I enjoy watching the races!
I'm gonna make a confession. I only watch Hikaru to feed my schadenfreude when he loses.
You're missing a lot then
@@riddhimaraj549 I don't think you understand what schadenfreude means
@@qdlaty23 I do, even if I didn't there this thing called Google. Is it maybe, something like a satisfaction you feel when smth goes bad for sm else?? I'm not sure because I'm just a dumb fucking bitch talking to a 2000iq person so excuse me.
Also, I also believe that you don't know how English works you dumb mf?? What part of my comment did u not understand??
@@qdlaty23 he lost once. thats what he means
Obviously chess at this level very boring with lots of draws will take a Magnus Or the next Einstein to dominate but will be to late before AI in our brains will take over x don’t force ironically we are the Borg 🙈
I watch a lot of chess content and none of it is hikaru's. so I do think the chess community is doing a good job on social media, unlike what he said
What other famous players have social media like him though? That was what he was talking about.
Ian again will play and will become the world champion
Hikaru always says “He doesn’t care”… but really who cares about Hikaru…. he’s the poorest sport in this “sport” and that’s probably because he knows he’ll never be number 1 as long as Magnus is around
even with magnus not around he still isnt
Looser time
The eclipse not a big deal 🙈shame on you Hikaru all a big deal how very sad you say very very sad and Halley’s Comet I remember with amazement for weeks in the sky and I will never see the likes again obviously you have no memory because you wasn’t born at the time 🙈trust me it was the most spectacular sight you will never witness again unless you live until your 73 years old 🤞again for weeks like a story book you say 1999 🙈it was actually 1986 and we won’t see Halley again until 2061 🙈Hikaru not the best in these things 😂🙈
"all a big deal how very sad you say very very sad". Dude, wtf is up with this rambling? Most ppl don't care about an eclipse.
Just my opinion dude ❤️if Hikaru doesn’t follow the stars respect x just my opinion I love it and love Hikaru x
And your name ? 😉🙈🙈
Like astronaut 😂😂😂
@@illuminautrelax my friend
Hikaru has a goal better than this.🤗 You can tell! He wants chess to be enjoyed by a lot of people! Hikaru is a people person!❤♟️
@@fangiscool1 He wants to do it because he has the energy for it; passion.
You must think disabled people can stand if they were given money.
The #1 person disliked in the on-the-board chess community is a "people person" lol.
@@detectivemarkseven like you know what it feels like. even magnus has been an ass on the board, kasparov used to be really petty and don't get me started on fischer and paul morphy. you can't criticise hikaru for his past attitude and not place that same judgement for other players. you have a bias that is as clear as day.
