Think how it would look if football (/soccer) players did this. "I would kick it to him, and then he would pass it to the defender, and then via midfield the ball would be passed to me again and I would kick the ball in the top left corner of the GOAAAAAL!!!"
Comes off poorly though. He's effectively an athlete. Athletes have to talk about their successes as well as their struggles. He can't shy away from those types of questions. A footballer who struggles in the first half and then has a decent game still has to come up with some kind of answer for what happened in the first half, even if it's a generic answer.
@@B3Band i've heard that interviewer many times being rude to players and insulting their gameplay, he's always acting like he's a UFC commenter not a chess one
@@B3Bandyour footballer example is max trash cuz chess champ spends 4+h at an intense game just to receive dumb questions in the end. Mental sport is not some football where in interviews they answer like bunch of hobos. Example: you know it was our defense you know.. you know... got our chemistry you know... And same shit every interview. Chess is notging luke football.
@@B3Band Disagree, the best always get frustrated by the tendency of others to tend towards "normality". I think he explained effectively that he's playing a higher level. Just because others don't see it as "smooth", the concepts is boring and well researched. Get them out of prep asap, that's when Magnus starts playing.
@@B3Band Comes off poorly, to you. I see a player not bending over to suit a commentator's whims. With justification too here, seemingly. Effectively the question boiled down to something like "why didn't you treat us to an even more perfect game?" Like asking an athlete who broke a track record something like "why didn't you beat the world record by a few seconds?" Well done Magnus.

@@anomaly3215 No, the little boy moved 1.b4 in the opening ceremony. Magnus has the right to accept that move or play what he wants instead. Dubov and Giri were laughing because Magnus was trolling his opponent by waiting so long to retract the 1.b4 move -- faking that he might actually keep it. That's why his opponent started to look worried as he would probably never have prepared for playing against 1. b4.

@B3Band no they don't 🤣🤣 he's a person first, and he doesn't have to talk about anything he doesn't want to, stop dehumanizing people by placing them on pedestals
@anomaly3215 bro, it is done in the history of almost all sports, which sport u watch ? Esports ? Bcz im sure even there interviewers ask questions. Particularly, magnus here just was very disrespectful , and so arrogant. Doesnt matter if u can back it up , its like saying , hitler was right because he had the power to do what he did. He couldve simply responded witb politness as he does now , but ig hes a human afterall , cant judge a man from a single instance
@@jankisi Oh. Is this a sort of tradition in some games, that some random official would decide on a challenger's first move? I am curious about what this game was, and who is the guy facing Carlsen.
@@mickybadia it's a tradition that some visiting important people move the first piece according to what the white player tells them, but with language barrier + the press around them at that moment a lot of the time b, d, and a, e are heard wrong it also happened in a funny incident in caruana vs magnus in WCM 2018 in most cases you can ask a takeback because you didn't make the move yourself
It was a gooffy opening that borders on disrespect (my take is magnus wanted to trhow his oponent out of the known theory or maybe he was just bored who knows) so when the other gm's see it they can help but laugh, u can also see that the oponent was not liking that move
@@educampos3867 No, the b4 move was played by someone else (official who play the first move of the tournament, I think). Magnus is allowed to change the move if he wants (which he did later), but he was waiting a bit to change it, to troll his opponent.
@@daedalron Now the question is whether the official knows anything about opening theory - because if it was just a random move, leaving it out in the open could've easily be also laughing at the official's move, not necessarily against the opponent. Though the guy did look pretty miserable (uncomfortable as hell).
Maurice didn't say anything wrong. Magnus overreacted to a perfectly normal question, probably because he was stressed out. I love Magnus, but your hero worship is blinding you into thinking he can never do any wrong.

@@zaftnotameni Thanks for proving my point. :) You're focused on the fact that Magnus is the GOAT, rather than whether the comment was reasonable and within the norms of sports commentary.

@zaftnotameni it's pretty obvious that he didn't mean it in a negative way, he was obviously trying to say it was a slow, grindy game which was true. Magnus just react like a child and took offense.

The 2 of them playing in their head during the interview was cool. Probably not hard for players at that level but still cool to see.
Always amazes me. It's like they have superpowers.

I've never seen Magnus so heated before than in the interview with Maurice. 😂

1:07 “Do Better!”
- Magnus Carlsen the GOAT
One of his best responses.

I love how Dubov and Giri are just like "dude c'mon why you gotta do bro like that"
4:35 Magnus had full control
lol that last clip is hilarious
I don’t even know what happened in that last clip lol

Did he end up keeping the move?
@@PriZ0nM1kehe played b3
That look he gives when Yasser touches his arm ha
😂😂😂😂😂
Hahaha right.
Stranger danger
Pedro alert
That was a look like "once more and I will destroy you".
What a character
i hope that i can continue to win not so smooth games
was already the goat even back then.
How can a professional chess journalist not understand adjusting pieces, that was embarrassing...
Some people don't know the amount of pressure chess players are under in these tournaments.
Someone remember if he did play B4 ?
a3
in the last clip he did
@dmoeller0 no, in the last clip it's b4
It says 'chess grandmas' and not 'grandmasters' in the transcript
That smoth coment really tilt him lmao

4:40 wtf are they saying?? Some nerd language bro lol
Truly the language of chess. They definitely speak it fluently.
you must be new to chess lmfao
What is there to understand in the last segment in which virtually nothing happens?
The guy played 1. b4 for Magnus, which is an aweful move. Magnus then changed it to 1. b3

Not at all
