Agadmator comes first in Magnus recommendations of chess channels which include Gothamchess , Botezlive , John Bartholomew , St. Louis Chess club and Daniel Naroditsky . The reason , Magnus father only watches Agadmator's videos from start to finish . Which makes Agadmator the 🐐 .
I watch Anton for the entertainment and Daniel for the learning. This channel did get me playing again after I quit in my teens, not sure if that’s been a blessing or a curse.
My cat went for the pawn push as well, which is rare for him as he usually prefers to sac material and pursue a sharp line in the hopes his opponent won't be able to consolidate in time.
My cat tends to try to capture all the pieces in a single move, She wants to remove as many piece from the board as possible, doesn't matter which color.
By far Nepo is my favorite chess player for his deep calculation, it allows him to spring a winning attack or a clever defense in a position you'd not expect it from. I think he could have had the title at one point in these past years if he was able to relax a bit more over the board. In a lot of matches against Magnus it seemed like the only thing holding Nepo back was himself, he just needed to keep his cool and he might have had the title himself for a bit. Still my favorite player though
Ikr like even during the world championship games till game 5 nepo was just playing more accurate and better chess than Magnus and then that nightmare game 6 man it just crushed nepo and I don’t even blame him for that he was winning that game during the time scramble I was like ahh nepo might win this slept then see the result see the game and I am like Magnus u beauty and felt sad for nepo
It is amazing that even my cat found the pawn push and I could only think of bishop capture. Another day, another move not found. Let's keep the streak
“It’s been a while that we’ve seen a piece placed so terribly that you could literally play anything. Like if you let your cat on the board and the cat moved a piece it would probably be winning.” 😂😂😂😂💔💔
There is a cat that's hanging out a lot in my building. Might try replicating Nepo's position and having the cat randomly move on the board lol. Thanks as always for interesting ideas, Antonio.
@@timmyshore3755 it's reference to a comment Agadmator made in the video. Basically, Nepo reached a position that was such that any move for him was winning. Hence, Antonio said something along the lines of having a cat randomly move a piece and even a bizzare move like that would still retain a winning edge for Nepo.
Not really good at anticipating moves, but I can always anticipate the moment when Agad is about to say the famous "And it is on move x that we have a completely new game"
Love pausing videos to find moves, have been playing puzzles only and got up to a 1900 rating from 900! Need to start playing more actual games (I’m about 1100) but puzzles are just awesome
I was thinking the same, only square for bishop is e5, but then pawn to f6 and that's it. Only tactic that I see is instead of moving bishop you can attack black knight with g4 but then the whole structure in front of a king is destroyed.
Have you ever thought of making a chess app or website with a chess emulator of just daily puzzles that come your pause-the-video moments? The puzzle could have a link to your videos.
Love your recaps. At 3:48 you said bishop goes back to d7. The move White played was Bd3. The time control is 25/10. We all make mistakes, you're still the BEST by far!
Hi @agadmator Just a suggestion. It would be still more cool, if you can go for a 4k camera. If you really feel that the benefits doesn't out-weigh the cost involved, I really respect that as well. Thank you.
@@andrejatodorovic4094 Since the video/content length is short around 10-15 mins and also this is the biggest chess youtube channel, it would be good to watch the content in 4k clarity. Often @agadmator shows photos and even few video clippings in 4k. Hence it would be nice if it is presented in the highest clarity available now.
@@emailstorbalar4100 It is a very tiny part of his videos but I guess it wouldn't hurt. Also, pictures and short clips that he's sometimes showing are usually not shot in 4k, so it wouldn't be some great improvement, that's my take at least.
Word is viewers everywhere are placing their pet cats on chessboards with this exact game setup, and we should all brace for a new YT Shorts/Tik Tok trend.
@@timmyshore3755 then watch the whole video, again. And you'll notice Antonio mentioning, something along the lines that, even if given to a cat, it would win, considering the position. Also, Shakh is an abbreviation for Mamedyarov's name, Shakhriyar. And that's the good stuff.
Agamator really got a kick out of that worst move. I was looking for it, but I couldn't find it. Agamator's later comments about some of the problems the move created gave me a little incite into the art of making bad moves,
The more I watch chess.. the more I find the game a living example of the butterfly effect.. the tiniest insignificant move can affect everything lol just as you show all the other variations that could of happened
What do you really mean? In all games, you say at a special moment of that game, that the game is a completely new game in the history of chess! How can that make sense?
"Without error there can be no brilliancy." ~~ Lasker. I feel that this is a more apt quote for this game. You used it for another video. Have I understood the quote correctly? Did Lasker mean to say "nothing ventured; nothing gained"?
Watch Magnus say some nice things about the channel twitter.com/agadmator/status/1563624361071984640
Yes!! Let us not let the significance of this slip past us!
👍👍
A considered moment
Number one!😉
Congratulations Agad. I know how much it means to you.

Its normal.teach him opening preparations.

Cats are generally good with meow Gambit
The Magnus comments on this channel are very worth listening to! Congrats Agadmator and everyone who's connected to his lessons :)

nepo we love him. hillgartha chess club president billy myers said.
" if your cat moved a piece" man you are getting funnier by the day. i always have a great laugh with you.. thnx from australia
9:20 Gotta love the engine throwing in Qd8+ when Rb8 wins the queen immediately.
"if you let your cat on the board, and the cat moved a piece, it would probably be winning" - Aggy
Aggy? You're getting too comfortable I guess.
It is amazing that even my cat found the pawn push and I could only think of bishop capture. Another day, another move not found. Let's keep the streak
i reckon i’m willing to bet you have more than 3 cats. are you a cat lady ?
Magnus's comments really show the impact that his father has on him and how much he values his opinions.
“It’s been a while that we’ve seen a piece placed so terribly that you could literally play anything. Like if you let your cat on the board and the cat moved a piece it would probably be winning.” 😂😂😂😂💔💔
My cat beat Shak!
Embarrassed that my cat didn’t find Qd8.
He has 8 lives left now.
U miscalculated 😬
Shak vs Nepo that’s a good matchup!!!
Some mistake at 0:10, I think Nepo got 3 Draws on 1st Day with Xiong, MVL and Fabi !
Nepo is a master of forcing variations
Awesome battle! So tactically rich and displays Ians' strength very well.
12:40 you can just imagine 2 cats playing .....
no eye contact tho !
St. Louis Rapid games are 25/10 time control.
That's a beautiful feather in your cap Antonio!

If you let a cat on the board and the cat moved a piece, it'd probably be winning...
*having flashbacks of losing to my cat*
Agad not saying the bishop is on b4 is why I love this channel
Love pausing videos to find moves, have been playing puzzles only and got up to a 1900 rating from 900! Need to start playing more actual games (I’m about 1100) but puzzles are just awesome
That comment by Magnus is hysterical 🤣
Cat vs Nepo, truly truly spectacular stuff 😊
This was a beauty because Ian maximized all of his pieces and used them in the attack.
Thank you ! Very interesting game and analysis!
Dopamine levels are back up
💨💨
Same.. Lol
I got the dope part
I used to think golf was the most frustrating game ever, until i took up chess...
Agadmator cracking up about how bad the position is at 10:38 made my day 🤣
“If you let your cat on the board and your cat moved the piece…..” 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
My favorite part of every video is when Agadmator says “there’s no way to defend this”
On 2:50 - sorry for noob question, but isn't g5 just wins a bishop? Cause if Be5 than just f6?
If the title of the video is like that - of course I am watching.
@6:40 why not knight captures g6? if the pawn recaptures, queen picks up pawn on e6 with check then can grab the knight.. am i missing something ?
Shaq has been crushing it ever since the infamous failure that was Shazam.
Of course my cat found one of the winning moves. This is his favorite opening.
3:12 isn’t g5 by black ,traps the bishop on f4 ?
I was thinking the same, only square for bishop is e5, but then pawn to f6 and that's it. Only tactic that I see is instead of moving bishop you can attack black knight with g4 but then the whole structure in front of a king is destroyed.
no that leads to checkmate
I think Nepo is nowadays the best attacker!
"If you let your cat on the board and it moved a piece, it's winning." Agadmator
Hey Agad, I think you mixed something. Nepo didn't win a single game the first day. He had three draws
Henrik Carlsen line video next
#suggestion : add timestamp for endgame start defined by lichess to as 6 pieces except kings and pawns.
Here the timestamp is:
N/A
"If you let your cat on the board and the cat moved the piece, it would probably still be winning" 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
And it was in this position, with a cat PAWn move, that Nepo won the game.
What a wonderful check mate that is being discovered.
#conspiracytheory Magnus is only giving up his WC title to be the only WC ever who picked it up twice without loosing it over the board once.
that would be the ultimate power move just to dunk on everyone else
Have you ever thought of making a chess app or website with a chess emulator of just daily puzzles that come your pause-the-video moments? The puzzle could have a link to your videos.
no we’re not going to do that

One of the best beautiful game I saw today
Thank you for continuing effort to make these clips👍🙏🏽
By the way:
Sound quality is not good. If you could fix it then even better👍🙏🏽

It was a draw, but what a draw! Most dramatic game yet
Nice analysis as always.
excellent, thank you
The triple fork variation is awesome!
howdy 🤠 😉💋
I saw "with milkshake comes brilliancy" and was determined to make one before each session. Then I realised that it was a mistake!
11:53 Look at "diz nuts"
#SUGGESTION Alireza vs Caruana round 5 Saint Louis rapid August 2022
Mamedyarov looks like a Mongolian warlord or some shit in the picture Agad uses but looks so friendly normally lol

That’s the problem with the bishop pair. They get stuck behind pawns
Material aint nothing all by itself.
I love the power of knights
The allusion to the cat was brutal 😅
Now, we have to see Agad vs Magnus dad game.
Beautiful game 🤩😍
K takes on d5 first?
My cat basically told me any move was winning
Word is viewers everywhere are placing their pet cats on chessboards with this exact game setup, and we should all brace for a new YT Shorts/Tik Tok trend.
And it was in this moment the Cat checkmated Shakh ♟️
what in tarnation are you talking about ?

Love the thumbnail haha

His face :))))))) nepo is the ultimate dou
#suggestion
Stockfish 15 vs alpha zero 2022 game 8- game 7 - game 18
He said "uhhh" about 86 times
Agad mentioned a cat instead of Medo because a cat can play some wierd moves but Medo plays strongest moves only...
I just immediately click on video if it's on nepo.idk
Definitely my favorite chess channel, my second favorite? Hikaru's channel.....
Knight pair from heaven?
Shakh after watching this vid on Carlsen's recommendation:😠😠
I had to analyze the whole ending to this because you didn't show what happens if rook captures at the end. But yeah it's all brutal checkmating
Hiroshima-Nagasaki special after Bc6 🧨🧨🧨💣💣💣🤯🤯🤯
Brutal!
Oh No My Shakh!

A new position in competitive chess game between masters

🔥
are you saying cats are dumb?!
Nice game.
9:03 your analysis as presented missed mate. Yeah. 😄
No offense meant but Ian vs Others : Lion but Ian vs Carlsen : Cat. Tells a lot about how Carlsen is God level.
