Wouldn’t make sense. Carlsen doesn’t need to promotion. He is the GOAT, no questions asked. If Hikaru gets any attention, Carlsen will get it too, as he’s just straight up better.
@@mathieup.corbeil894 damn you chess people really don't get it all huh. you don't join orgs with the main idea of promoting yourself, or being better than anyone LMAO
@@mathieup.corbeil894 Things arent like that little one, Being the best in the world doesn´t mean u gonna get more promotion than a guy like Hikaru ( and Hikaru is the GOAT at blitz, not Magnus )
My favourite part about this is that Hikaru isn't doing it for money at all. He doesn't need it in the slightest, he just wants to spread chess and get more people playing. Such a good dude.
@@crazyinsanechessplayer2208 He currently has a slighter higher elo but... Carlsen is a 5-time blitz world champion (Nakamura's best result is runner-up) Carlsen holds the record for highest blitz elo at 2986, way ahead of anyone else (the same is true of rapid and classical) Carlsen famously beat Naka 24.5-15.5 in a secret OTB blitz match in November 2010 Carlsen beat Nakamura 14.5-10.5 in the 2016 chess.com blitz championship Carlsen beat Nakamura 18.0-9.0 in the 2017 chess.com blitz championship
@@TheCriticsAreRaving I get that, but if you witnessed the recent 7 day match between them, you would have noticed that they were pretty much neck and neck.
@@crazyinsanechessplayer2208 It was a great match but it's clear Carlsen was slightly out of form. Normally he's so good he habitually sets all-time records across all formats of chess.
Never would I have thought I would live to see the day Hikaru Nakamura, the second greatest blitz player of the last decade, would achieve what he achieved in 2020. Crazy year indeed.
I won't agree. Covid shown that chess (all types of bullet/blitz/rapid time controls) is as capable of being e-sport as anything else. With good commentary (like Levy Rozman/Anna Rudolf/Botez sisters) it is veryy nice to watch even if you don't understand what happens or don't play chess well
all the semi or experienced chess players know what a pro and legend hikaru really is. One of the best players in the world at most modes (blitz bullet etc) excited to see what hikaru brings to tsm :)
It does make sense because team can branch out to other games besides only league... hikaru didn't join the league of legends team team hes not on the roster so it's nothing like Tiger Woods joining the Lakers it would be like Tiger Woods joining an LA golf team called the Lakers.
I feel nice for Hikaru. Bringing chess to a bigger community is always nice. But I'm not very informed, what are the actually benefits from being in a team like TSM?
He gets more viewership, he gets more money from sponsors, and being in an organization as big as TSM, is such a huge deal. It's pretty much an accomplishment.
Seems cool and all TSM hype video signing a chess GM, but like what does this actually mean?...Is it that he's just associated with the team now and things go on normally as if nothing changed?...lol

For those who don’t know chess well. This guy would easily demolish the whole tsm team 5v1 and blindfolded, in about a minute each or less

I thought the same thing right away. Lol
Now TSM League team just needs to add Pawn to their lineup
