@Take Take Take congratulations on your 100k subscriber. This journey has been great with you guys.The mods are very friendly and the commentary is very fun and meaningful. Hope this journey will be so fun always.
Wow, Brandon Jacobson had 4 brilliant moves vs Hikaru. Tbh, it does seem like he and Hans are creative af and get brilliant moves more often than most. And clearly, he did this while being observed and vs a top player. Very impressive.
Amazing tournament from the lad. Really impressive positional chess. Fantastic to see the Russian school produce another positional demon. Awesome for the game!
I still remember that every game from the 1992 Fischer Spassky rematch was printed in the Tampa Tribune. No other player commanded such a presence. Fischer turned down $50+ million dollars in 1976! What is $9 million in 2024 compared to that? No player today commands what Fischer did, none.
Hans mentions rating decay. That's an interesting concept. You would have to come up with an algorithm that works though. It can't just be something like "you lose X rating points a month". Because of course that system would lie even more than the current one. A grand master stops playing for a year and all of the sudden his elo is lying to the world. He didn't get worse, he just had "rating decay". You want a system that tells you the strength of a player, not dangle a number over his head to incentivize him to play more. You can incentivize more play with other methods.
World champion is 18 years old World rapid champion is 18 years old wow😮 This is the year of 18 years old guys in chess wow And of course the year of Indians as we got GM Koneru Humpy also as a World rapid 🏆 Great for chess.😊
Great interview with Hans and I completely agree about rating decay, soooo annoying how open people like Hikaru and Vishi are about barely playing but keeping their rating thus not letting it truly show their level
@@112233JORDAN Fr I'm so sick of people saying people like Arjun are farming 2500/2600s when most of the top players are too scared to play those open tournaments since it's full of underrated players
In today'sss video, i got crushed by 2500lvl analysis the first american world champion hans niemann! I let him torture me for 10mn because i deserved to be punished and i don't care..
I disagree with Hikaru. Chess doesn't evolve around Magnus especially as he nears the end of his career. Also, mid-tournament is not the time to protest dress code. Magnus knows better but he's used to getting his way. EDIT: Hikaru wants the top 20 players to form a union and protest against FIDE. I wonder which top 20 list Hikaru wants to use for his union. Maybe he forgets that the top 20 is a rotating list. People with common sense aren't going to put what little earning potential they have to protest against petty stuff like dress codes. Also, when FIDE tells these top 20 players to shove it like it happened to Kasparov and Short what are they going to do? It takes a lot of money to start a new federation and keep it running long term. Kasparov learned the hard way. Hikaru and Magnus don't care because they are both multi-millionaires but most other GMs aren't going to gamble their earning potential to follow these two elitists (at the end of their careers) who got nothing to lose.
Pragg needs to grow Sense of Occasion... Penultimate match with Murzin was his to win... So 💔.. and Murzin gone on to win the Rapid tournament... Still Blitz is Possible... Hopefully, ✌️😎👍
Magnus was losing badly. That's why he created a diversion and withdrew from the event. You people need to get your facts together before regurgitating nonsense.
Magnus just found a lame excuse to wriggle his way out of losing games in the competition. Now he is out there relaxing with his fanbois yapping and his ratings intact. Smart chess move.
@Levy - please stop saying ‘like’ every second word when you’re speaking to people who dont have English as a first language…it’s really difficult for non native speakers to translate in their heads when ‘like’ is used as a filler. If you’re struggling to find your own words stick with ‘um’ or ‘er’, noises that seem prevalent in many languages! (Even better, try not to use fillers, especially not with an international audience)
The more I think about Magnus' decision, the more I'm disappointed in him showing such poor sportsmanship. Now every winner will be deemed to "not be the true champion" even though Carlsen was nowhere near winning the tournament when he decided to leave it. BTW, not even Carlsen would agree that he is at its peak. He is still a phenomenal player but he is on his way down. Some time ago he named his favourite player as himself 'three years ago".
Arkady is such a hypocrite, saying he'd be willing to revise the dress code but players need to follow it. He allows multitudes of players to violate the dress code and focuses on the players on camera, thats unprofessional. Either you enforce it fairly or dont enforce it at all. He's just a snake oil salesman. 🤢🤮

Unbelievable performance by Murzin! Congrats on an amazing run and winning the world rapid event!!
I cannot believe that I am actually agreeing with Hans.
Yo I didn't know Hans was based like that😂
Amazing tournament from the lad. Really impressive positional chess. Fantastic to see the Russian school produce another positional demon. Awesome for the game!

This is the year of 18 years old guys in chess wow
And of course the year of Indians as we got GM Koneru Humpy also as a World rapid 🏆 Great for chess.😊
Levy was very classy in the interview with Merzin
A Magnus mic drop comes with play. It’s in his genes….🧬
Instead of worrying about the clothes being worn Fide should be concentrating on using technology that works
Great interview with Hans and I completely agree about rating decay, soooo annoying how open people like Hikaru and Vishi are about barely playing but keeping their rating thus not letting it truly show their level
And also sticking to touraments with invite only facing only the top. Have them fight in open tournaments and their ratings would get demolished.

Congratulations on 100k Take Take Take ch & Volodar Murzin for World Rapid Champion! 👏👏
So many Russians in top 10 in both open and women sections. They still run chess.
It's good. Wrestling and Chess are where it's at.
Congrats takex3!!! 100k in less than three months!!!! I hope the app is going good too!!
Congrats on 100k and great coverage on all the games and drama. Will there be 100k merch?

The Indians, Russians, Central Asians and Chinese would NOT protest against FIDE. And those guys are mostly covering the top 20.
If chess doesn't revolve around Magnus then why are there news stories across the world about him dropping out?
hikaroo is so wrong abt there wont be any sponsors without magnoos, i mean come on fide got google as sponsor without magnoos😑
@@DC-zi6se basically asia continent
*congratulations Russia*
3:42:04 "It's perfect daddy" Freudian slip
Lol!
Lol shes smiling like shes got a crush too, huh? Got a crush on the Chief Chess Officer.
Had to change that thumbnail!
Pragg needs to grow Sense of Occasion...
Penultimate match with Murzin was his to win... So 💔.. and Murzin gone on to win the Rapid tournament... Still Blitz is Possible... Hopefully, ✌️😎👍
Pragg is the future of chess
nandhahahhahahha?
Magnus Kicked out, Hikaru Kicked at the nuts, 3 Russkies at the top.
A bad week Take Take Take.
No indians. What a disappointment
@@Chrollo17th LOL
@@Chrollo17th what about Koneru Humpy?
@@Chrollo17thnot many top players participated.only arjun and pragg was there and they are also at 9 and 8.5.
This rapid was best of all time and fun to watch seeing the old pucks get beaten. @@Chrollo17th
Damn hit 100k after livestream ended congrats tho
100!
Without the goat the competition wasn’t even near 40%. But to Murzkin, Congrats young champ.
Magnus was doing terribly lol, he would have lost anyway
Magnus was losing badly. That's why he created a diversion and withdrew from the event. You people need to get your facts together before regurgitating nonsense.
Get his nuts out of his mouth and focus on your mental health.
Magnus just found a lame excuse to wriggle his way out of losing games in the competition. Now he is out there relaxing with his fanbois yapping and his ratings intact. Smart chess move.
Magnus would have lost anyway. Found a tantrum to avoid that. What a child!!?😂
come on hikaru... wear a jean
90k price money for the winner is nothing
True😢
Look for MC to remedy that in freestyle chess

The more I think about Magnus' decision, the more I'm disappointed in him showing such poor sportsmanship. Now every winner will be deemed to "not be the true champion" even though Carlsen was nowhere near winning the tournament when he decided to leave it.
BTW, not even Carlsen would agree that he is at its peak. He is still a phenomenal player but he is on his way down. Some time ago he named his favourite player as himself 'three years ago".
Why do chess players always mention tennis ?
Arkady is such a hypocrite, saying he'd be willing to revise the dress code but players need to follow it. He allows multitudes of players to violate the dress code and focuses on the players on camera, thats unprofessional. Either you enforce it fairly or dont enforce it at all. He's just a snake oil salesman. 🤢🤮
FIDE - Carlsen 3:0
He just doesn’t deserve it. “World champion” does not mean anything anymore
And you don't deserve watching chess. Go touch the grass kid.
Change that girl commentator the only thing she can do is to yell 'Is there a blunderrrrrr' XD
World champion does not mean anything anymore
