I actually think he will, but only in a winner take all situation. My guess is that they strategically played for the draw against Hans, but Magnus didn't want Hans to get the draw against him, especially the first time since the incident OTB.
Magnus performance for the rapid was 2895 and Hans 2594, and Hans is not even in the top 100 in the world in Rapid. As a viewer I can't grasp why some wanted a matchup between them.
Precisely because Magnus is on paper much better than Hans is why I as a viewer want to see that mach up. Hans is right, if you choose not to play and send your teammate instead then you're a coward
@@_Bailamme_ Magnus recently lost his mother, probably the last thing he wants or needs is the drama that can come from facing off against a person who sued him.

I think Hans saw the kind of line Ian was going for that is typically a draw line and pretty much scoffed at him, like if he was saying in its mind that not only Magnus didn't show up but also Ian is just going to draw him
Magnus can lose to Rapport or other established players, but if Hans outplays him - its cheating. He is for sure ducking Hans out of fear of losing again
Pause is a cheater and it's bad enough in the day and age of computers instead of the minds of men working out the best possible moves and memorized patterns without low character being an issue.

@@bm7502 there's videos all over the internet where they computer analyze and put up percentages. Mini top players have never had a 100% game in their career. There's been a couple that have had like one with a low number of moves. Hans has had like seven or more. Nakamura has a video on it as well
'Famous' might be an overstatement, but Pang Bo is actually pretty well-known among our Chinese chess fans and players. I believe he's in Peking University(which is literally the top 2 uni in China) and has been playing many tourament(in China, we kinda have an own system which is non-elo base) and won quite a number of medals(and bonus) of course. He's actual strength is way way higher than 1400, is just that he doesn't participate in elo-based events. Anyway, very happy that he representes our Chinese team in this events and good luck to all!! (p.s. sry for any potential grammar mistakes in my comment cause my grammar is trash)
He’s probably saving the game for SCC semi finals if I had to make a guess. I wouldn’t be surprised if Ian also really wanted to troll Hans and asked Magnus if he could step in his place.
This is overblown. Magnus lost pretty badly yesterday, so it's possible he just decided that he wasn't in the best mental state to actually play Hans today. That, on top of Magnus not yet being back at his best since his mom died, is very understanding. Hans just being an overdramatic scumbag, as usual.

I suspect there's players like Bo Pang in Montana. It's just several hours drive from anywhere to anywhere, let alone going out of state. I've heard tales of FMs moving to Montana and within a year they're below 2000 because the local 1900s are really more like 2300 strength

I love Hans's dynamic. It brings a lot of fun to the chess world and his disappointment is understandable but Magnus' mother passed some time ago and even if he's fine and doing well, it's not ideal to call him cowardice and other means things. Hans should have been considerate.
Kind of seems that Hans is like that annoying drunk guy in the pub, bumping up against everybody and spilling his drink, and everyone is just waiting for the bouncer to come along and kick him out.. 🤣
To be clear its not like we cant pursue chess as a profession in india but there’s a stereotype mindset of parents that you should be graduated and have a good settled job and does not involve your mind in side things like sports or chess as many indian parents sees chess as an ordinary game
Hans yapping is funny, "Chess is the greatest combination of art and war. Cowardice leads to inevitable defeat.", yet bro took the easy way out and resorted to cheating during his career. Yeah his words don't mean anything.
In the heart of Gotham City, beneath the shadows of its towering skyscrapers and amidst the constant hum of crime and secrecy, an old tradition still held sway: Gotham Chess. It wasn’t just a game here; it was an institution, a way for the city's most influential figures to test their wits and maneuver behind closed doors. The chessboard was a battlefield, and the pieces were more than mere wood or plastic-they were symbols of power, strategy, and intrigue. On a cold October evening, as the city’s fog rolled through the streets, a new player had arrived at the Gotham Chess Club, a nondescript building tucked between two dilapidated warehouses. The club’s façade was unremarkable, but inside, it was a world of velvet curtains, polished mahogany, and dim lighting. The club was a haven for Gotham’s elite and its hidden operators. At the center of this particular evening’s buzz was a young woman named Clara Kane, a newcomer to the city’s high-stakes chess scene. She was known for her unorthodox style and striking, jet-black attire, which earned her the nickname “The Raven” among the regulars. Clara had a reputation for dismantling seasoned players with a combination of raw talent and cunning strategy, but Gotham Chess was a different game entirely. The Gotham Chess Club had an unspoken rule: the higher your rank in the chess world, the greater the stakes of the match. The reigning champion, a mysterious figure known only as “The Knight,” had held the title for nearly a decade. His real identity was a closely guarded secret, even among the city’s most well-informed insiders. The Knight’s games were legendary, characterized by aggressive tactics and brilliant, unpredictable moves. On this particular evening, Clara had been invited to challenge The Knight. The invitation had come from a shadowy benefactor who appreciated her talent and perhaps saw her as a pawn in a larger game. As she entered the dimly lit room, the atmosphere was electric with anticipation. The Knight was known for his psychological prowess as much as his strategic skill, and everyone was eager to see how Clara would fare. The game began with an air of quiet intensity. Clara sat opposite The Knight at a grand chessboard that seemed to pulse with its own dark energy. The pieces were carved from black marble and white alabaster, each one more intricate than the last. The room was silent, save for the soft clinks of pieces being moved and the occasional murmur of spectators. The Knight’s opening moves were swift and precise, his strategy meticulous. Clara countered with a series of unexpected gambits, her eyes never leaving the board. She played with an intensity that bordered on obsession, each move calculated to draw The Knight into a trap. The game was a mesmerizing dance of aggression and patience, with Clara’s unorthodox maneuvers pushing The Knight to reveal subtle cracks in his defenses. As the game progressed, Clara realized that The Knight was more than just a chess prodigy-he was a master of psychological warfare. His moves seemed to probe her mind, attempting to unsettle her with feints and bluffs. But Clara was resolute, her focus unshaken by the mind games. She had prepared for this moment, studying not just her opponent’s strategies but also his tendencies and patterns. In the final stages of the game, the board was a battlefield of exposed pieces and precarious positions. Clara had managed to maneuver her queen into a position that threatened The Knight’s king from multiple angles. The Knight, though visibly perturbed, was still a formidable opponent. He made a desperate series of moves, attempting to salvage his position and mount a counterattack. But Clara’s patience and preparation paid off. With a decisive move, she checkmated The Knight, ending the game with a brilliant, unexpected tactic. The room erupted into applause as Clara leaned back, her expression a mix of triumph and relief. The Knight’s mask fell away, revealing a face that was both familiar and enigmatic. He was an influential figure in Gotham’s underworld, a man whose power extended far beyond the chessboard. He offered Clara a nod of respect, acknowledging her skill and determination. As Clara left the Gotham Chess Club that night, the city’s fog seemed a little less oppressive. She had earned her place in Gotham’s chess world and had made a name for herself against the most formidable of opponents. The Raven had flown into the heart of Gotham and had emerged victorious, a testament to her skill and the enduring allure of the game. In the end, Gotham Chess was more than just a game-it was a reflection of the city itself: complex, shadowy, and full of hidden depths. And Clara Kane, the Raven, had become a significant player in its ever-evolving saga.
To be fair to Hans, it seems like he actually didn't cheat against magnus and so the fit that he threw would've pissed me off as well. The lawsuit was stupid probably, but I get why he was mad about it.
The lawsuit was most definitely not stupid because that is a career ending claim lol. Hans had no choice but to sue Magnus to clear his name. Otherwise people would believe Magnus and Hans would be banned from competing everywhere.
@@vulcanh254 well I think to win defamation you basically have to show 1.demonstrable harm to your reputation 2.That it was a lie and 3.That the lie was intentional. And with the multiple cheating instances online it’s gotta be pretty easy for the magnus side to say “uh dude cheated online so he killed his own reputation. Plus Magnus did have some reason to believe that he cheated in the match- once a cheater always a cheater.” And then discovery would have a bunch more stuff come out and if there are any instances of Hans cheating that haven’t been documented yet, they might also come out
In the video from ChessBaseIndia, Hans can be very cleared heard to say “very nice” and then “good try” but it’s not entirely clear what he’s referring to.
The start of this scandal got me into chess, this channel taught me everything I know. I’ve gained 100 points in that time, a testament to your channel Levy.
i mean, not at all. magnus doesn't like one proven cheater, kramnik accuses every player who he's ever played online as a cheater. kramnik was never close to as good as magnus is either, he just thinks hans is a clown and won't play him, which is fair, because hans is a total clown.
@@Josharoo I can't remember who,but he lost some match against some dude this year and made some snarky comments,when he's gona start losing more and more games you'll see it,everyone knows about his beef because it happened at one of the biggest tournaments,he had other slipups
@@zezeti2246 I mean.... no one's perfect? hans literally makes a snarky comment every single day of his life. he can't stay off twitter drama and he's both a sore winner and a sore loser. so not sure what your point is.
@@Josharoo snarky comment towards hikaru, gotham, or magnus who have always been very negative of him. Lets be real, Magnus is an extremely sore loser, and now that hes losing more we will see a worse side of him come out.
I understand Magnus. Ideally he wants to play Hans in events that have proper security measures in place. And unfortunatelly most tournaments dont have that.
You were okay with the witch hunt earlier? But a year later after the kid has had psychological, and career-reputation damage your on the other side? Genuinely curious what was the turning point in this..
Because Hans didnt cheat they never confirmed that he cheated, it was all just Magnus imagination and shows how insecure he is for making such claims@@nikhildawani2913
Wrong or not, why cheat in the first place? Magnus is the type of person who respects the game deeply, along with other players he's played in the past, grandmaster or not. Hans' playstyle is undeniably good and has proven to defeat high-rated players fairly, and there's nothing wrong with that. Whatever the case, Hans has already tampered his playstyle and mindset when he used an engine against a player. Now I believe from Magnus' perspective, Hans is a definitely good player, he's just lost his respect for him down to rock bottom for not respecting the game of chess even if it was just cheating once. Now Im not milking either of the two. All of this comes down to Hans' ego kicking in and deciding to cheat which he admitted. Seeing now that he has gotten a higher rank in chess fairly, still does not justify his actions in history. If you're a master at something, it all comes down to respect.
@@KBG01_ sure he has cheated but that was years ago when he was just a kid. If it was really about respect for the game, Magnus would show his respect by playing the opponent he was given, not dodging him because of suspicions. He was fine with playing a former cheater until he lost to him. He already knew he was a former cheater before that. It seems petty to me. Or like a PR move more than anything.
@@cdizzlegd3611 I agree. I think it’s more than what meets the eye, you should watch how Hans played against Ian. I could tell he was pissed by Magnus not playing him, but the way he shows body language, I don’t think he’s very likeable at all.
Bro, In India, Tamil Nadu and Assam are the toughest. DO YOU LIKE A CHALLENGE? I CHALLENGE YOU TO COME IN ASSAM AND GAIN RATING IN A FIDE TOURNAMENT I HAVE NEVER IN A LIFE TIME SEEN A 2000 PLUS TO GAIN RATING IN ASSAM Even the two IMs were 2000 s in Assam and when they went abroad, they instantly gained 400 rating points. By the way I am 1521 and 2084 or like that online. People here are 2100-2200 online without playing their first tournament.
Magnus made himself look like an ass with baseless accusations. He is extremely likely the better player even now but he has lost the mental game so hard because he feels if he loses it vindicates Hanz so he doesn't have the balls to lose. He cannot even risk losing 10% of the time because he is a coward. It is a game, a silly game and he is acting like some morally superior person taking a stand. And against what? 18 year olds cheating in board games. What a loser.
doesn't want to play against a blowhard, arrogant, cheater with the worst attitude in chess as the best player to ever live. I think he can do that if he wants.

>that game . once a cheater always a cheater.
i mean hans sued him
@@UnflippedGDhe got banned from all top competitions for 2 years,he would have been stupid if he didn't sue them
@@zezeti2246 o thanks
Hans not cheating is like believing mentalist and magic are real
That Duda game was wild. Great content as usual, Levy. Your success is well deserved.
"maybe his aura had him saying english or spanish"
cmon man
yeah thats too much
bro bro 😔
?? : this move was a blunder, his aura is too powerful
I love Hans's dynamic. It brings a lot of fun to the chess world and his disappointment is understandable but Magnus' mother passed some time ago and even if he's fine and doing well, it's not ideal to call him cowardice and other means things. Hans should have been considerate.
Kind of seems that Hans is like that annoying drunk guy in the pub, bumping up against everybody and spilling his drink, and everyone is just waiting for the bouncer to come along and kick him out.. 🤣
To be clear its not like we cant pursue chess as a profession in india but there’s a stereotype mindset of parents that you should be graduated and have a good settled job and does not involve your mind in side things like sports or chess as many indian parents sees chess as an ordinary game
why r the heads so big in the thumbnail 💀
fr lol
Your eyes are just small today
He likes big heads
Why aren't they?
Big brains 😭🤣🛌
Might it be, about Nienman's laugh, that Ian moved is knight and took the pawn, instead of taking it first and then moving the knignt?
Poor move by Carlsen. Shouldn't have been this petty
Wasn’t it petty of Hans to get so tilted out of his mind that he had to vent to twitter about it? He’s a 12 year old 😂😂😂
Levy was rubbing his hands together like birdman when this happened
petition for levy to scream THE ROOK uncontrollably for 24 hours without any reason
I see that
Good luck
I'm going to have a big chess channel just like yours Levy!
Anish being anish 😂
5:53, I had an opponent (1850) blunder his queen for a bishop on move 5 today in a 30-minute game
Hans yapping is funny, "Chess is the greatest combination of art and war. Cowardice leads to inevitable defeat.", yet bro took the easy way out and resorted to cheating during his career. Yeah his words don't mean anything.
Yet he never cheated over the board and beat Magnus fair and square.
Magnus is just a diva, a pussy and a sore loser.
Prove he cheated.
@@ollikoskiniemi6221 he legit admitted to cheating when he was younger but ok
@@jwmc99 once when he was younger. That does not make him an active cheater.
@@jwmc99 Bring one solid evidence that Hans cheated against Magnus in any match. You are just a clueless sheep repeating your shepherd
"funniest grandmaster until i become one" wild 💀
Magnus can't handle the fact that hans beats him without cheating
Magnum Carlos is giga chad. Hans bad.
Stop dickriding magnus lil bro@@EnverHalilHoxha1917
he cheated once he should be banned for life ngl
@@anewfuture who's OP?
Sorry but he cheated. I remember when Hans admitted it: “The anal beads speak for themselves”

In the heart of Gotham City, beneath the shadows of its towering skyscrapers and amidst the constant hum of crime and secrecy, an old tradition still held sway: Gotham Chess. It wasn’t just a game here; it was an institution, a way for the city's most influential figures to test their wits and maneuver behind closed doors. The chessboard was a battlefield, and the pieces were more than mere wood or plastic-they were symbols of power, strategy, and intrigue.
On a cold October evening, as the city’s fog rolled through the streets, a new player had arrived at the Gotham Chess Club, a nondescript building tucked between two dilapidated warehouses. The club’s façade was unremarkable, but inside, it was a world of velvet curtains, polished mahogany, and dim lighting. The club was a haven for Gotham’s elite and its hidden operators.
At the center of this particular evening’s buzz was a young woman named Clara Kane, a newcomer to the city’s high-stakes chess scene. She was known for her unorthodox style and striking, jet-black attire, which earned her the nickname “The Raven” among the regulars. Clara had a reputation for dismantling seasoned players with a combination of raw talent and cunning strategy, but Gotham Chess was a different game entirely.
The Gotham Chess Club had an unspoken rule: the higher your rank in the chess world, the greater the stakes of the match. The reigning champion, a mysterious figure known only as “The Knight,” had held the title for nearly a decade. His real identity was a closely guarded secret, even among the city’s most well-informed insiders. The Knight’s games were legendary, characterized by aggressive tactics and brilliant, unpredictable moves.
On this particular evening, Clara had been invited to challenge The Knight. The invitation had come from a shadowy benefactor who appreciated her talent and perhaps saw her as a pawn in a larger game. As she entered the dimly lit room, the atmosphere was electric with anticipation. The Knight was known for his psychological prowess as much as his strategic skill, and everyone was eager to see how Clara would fare.
The game began with an air of quiet intensity. Clara sat opposite The Knight at a grand chessboard that seemed to pulse with its own dark energy. The pieces were carved from black marble and white alabaster, each one more intricate than the last. The room was silent, save for the soft clinks of pieces being moved and the occasional murmur of spectators.
The Knight’s opening moves were swift and precise, his strategy meticulous. Clara countered with a series of unexpected gambits, her eyes never leaving the board. She played with an intensity that bordered on obsession, each move calculated to draw The Knight into a trap. The game was a mesmerizing dance of aggression and patience, with Clara’s unorthodox maneuvers pushing The Knight to reveal subtle cracks in his defenses.
As the game progressed, Clara realized that The Knight was more than just a chess prodigy-he was a master of psychological warfare. His moves seemed to probe her mind, attempting to unsettle her with feints and bluffs. But Clara was resolute, her focus unshaken by the mind games. She had prepared for this moment, studying not just her opponent’s strategies but also his tendencies and patterns.
In the final stages of the game, the board was a battlefield of exposed pieces and precarious positions. Clara had managed to maneuver her queen into a position that threatened The Knight’s king from multiple angles. The Knight, though visibly perturbed, was still a formidable opponent. He made a desperate series of moves, attempting to salvage his position and mount a counterattack.
But Clara’s patience and preparation paid off. With a decisive move, she checkmated The Knight, ending the game with a brilliant, unexpected tactic. The room erupted into applause as Clara leaned back, her expression a mix of triumph and relief.
The Knight’s mask fell away, revealing a face that was both familiar and enigmatic. He was an influential figure in Gotham’s underworld, a man whose power extended far beyond the chessboard. He offered Clara a nod of respect, acknowledging her skill and determination.
As Clara left the Gotham Chess Club that night, the city’s fog seemed a little less oppressive. She had earned her place in Gotham’s chess world and had made a name for herself against the most formidable of opponents. The Raven had flown into the heart of Gotham and had emerged victorious, a testament to her skill and the enduring allure of the game.
In the end, Gotham Chess was more than just a game-it was a reflection of the city itself: complex, shadowy, and full of hidden depths. And Clara Kane, the Raven, had become a significant player in its ever-evolving saga.
tl;dr
Tldr; He told chatgpt to write a story about a guy.@@jjtt
Can tell it's ai, and I liked it!
To be fair to Hans, it seems like he actually didn't cheat against magnus and so the fit that he threw would've pissed me off as well. The lawsuit was stupid probably, but I get why he was mad about it.
The lawsuit was most definitely not stupid because that is a career ending claim lol. Hans had no choice but to sue Magnus to clear his name. Otherwise people would believe Magnus and Hans would be banned from competing everywhere.
@@vulcanh254 well I think to win defamation you basically have to show 1.demonstrable harm to your reputation 2.That it was a lie and 3.That the lie was intentional. And with the multiple cheating instances online it’s gotta be pretty easy for the magnus side to say “uh dude cheated online so he killed his own reputation. Plus Magnus did have some reason to believe that he cheated in the match- once a cheater always a cheater.” And then discovery would have a bunch more stuff come out and if there are any instances of Hans cheating that haven’t been documented yet, they might also come out
Hans definitely has main character energy. Keeps chess exciting
Hans is literally doing nothing lol. It's Magnus that's doing everything
Main character energy? HANS?!? Did you tell your wife’s boyfriend that? And did he tell you to eat your veggies after?
:P
He definitely seems to be leaning into playing the heel
hans is like a poorly written rival who always loses and just is a measuring stick for a real main character. hans is garbage.
My 600 elo detector is going crazy
The real Hans vs Magnus match ups are the friends we made along the way

Levy loves chess so much, he married Hikaru's twin sister. That is dedication!
Liar. He marries hikaru himself.
In the video from ChessBaseIndia, Hans can be very cleared heard to say “very nice” and then “good try” but it’s not entirely clear what he’s referring to.
Wait till Levy becomes a Grandmother😭🙏
😭
Mother😭
the duda vs amin match was crazy, but I'm glad to see gms also miss these tactics like I would 😂
Finally,my movie is going to start.
The start of this scandal got me into chess, this channel taught me everything I know. I’ve gained 100 points in that time, a testament to your channel Levy.
Magnus is slowly yet surely turning into Kramnik,you eather die a hero or live to see yourself turn into the villain😅
i mean, not at all. magnus doesn't like one proven cheater, kramnik accuses every player who he's ever played online as a cheater. kramnik was never close to as good as magnus is either, he just thinks hans is a clown and won't play him, which is fair, because hans is a total clown.
@@Josharoo I can't remember who,but he lost some match against some dude this year and made some snarky comments,when he's gona start losing more and more games you'll see it,everyone knows about his beef because it happened at one of the biggest tournaments,he had other slipups
@@zezeti2246 I mean.... no one's perfect? hans literally makes a snarky comment every single day of his life. he can't stay off twitter drama and he's both a sore winner and a sore loser. so not sure what your point is.
@@Josharoo snarky comment towards hikaru, gotham, or magnus who have always been very negative of him. Lets be real, Magnus is an extremely sore loser, and now that hes losing more we will see a worse side of him come out.
@@TheTurtletaco123 what about gotham?
14:30 Hans: 💀 this is it this is my perfect victory!!!!! That right I won!!! ( Death Note )
So Pang Bo is the FIDE equivalent of a smurf, not really something to be proud of for whatever the Chinese chess organization is.
No, that would be if he had a FIDE rating under a different name.
I understand Magnus. Ideally he wants to play Hans in events that have proper security measures in place. And unfortunatelly most tournaments dont have that.
Hans is future world Champion
it's a group tournament, magnus didn't have to play if he didn't want to
I was on Magnus’ side, but now i’m on team Hans.
Brooo whyy??
You were okay with the witch hunt earlier? But a year later after the kid has had psychological, and career-reputation damage your on the other side? Genuinely curious what was the turning point in this..
Because Hans didnt cheat they never confirmed that he cheated, it was all just Magnus imagination and shows how insecure he is for making such claims@@nikhildawani2913
8:38 levy got confused in his own talk
i can't believe that whole thing was 2 years ago... time is crazy
Magnus just can't admit that he may have been wrong about Hans.
No hans shoved thing up arse.
Wrong or not, why cheat in the first place? Magnus is the type of person who respects the game deeply, along with other players he's played in the past, grandmaster or not. Hans' playstyle is undeniably good and has proven to defeat high-rated players fairly, and there's nothing wrong with that. Whatever the case, Hans has already tampered his playstyle and mindset when he used an engine against a player. Now I believe from Magnus' perspective, Hans is a definitely good player, he's just lost his respect for him down to rock bottom for not respecting the game of chess even if it was just cheating once. Now Im not milking either of the two. All of this comes down to Hans' ego kicking in and deciding to cheat which he admitted. Seeing now that he has gotten a higher rank in chess fairly, still does not justify his actions in history. If you're a master at something, it all comes down to respect.
@@KBG01_ sure he has cheated but that was years ago when he was just a kid. If it was really about respect for the game, Magnus would show his respect by playing the opponent he was given, not dodging him because of suspicions. He was fine with playing a former cheater until he lost to him. He already knew he was a former cheater before that. It seems petty to me. Or like a PR move more than anything.
@@cdizzlegd3611 I agree. I think it’s more than what meets the eye, you should watch how Hans played against Ian. I could tell he was pissed by Magnus not playing him, but the way he shows body language, I don’t think he’s very likeable at all.
@@cdizzlegd3611 See, I would be behind Hans, but he lied about how much he cheated and then he complains so much on twitter
0:28 yeah, the buzzer speaks for itself.
I Like that Magnus chose not to play! Well die ne...no publicity for Cheateriman
Bro, In India, Tamil Nadu and Assam are the toughest.
DO YOU LIKE A CHALLENGE?
I CHALLENGE YOU TO COME IN ASSAM AND GAIN RATING IN A FIDE TOURNAMENT
I HAVE NEVER IN A LIFE TIME SEEN A 2000 PLUS TO GAIN RATING IN ASSAM
Even the two IMs were 2000 s in Assam and when they went abroad, they instantly gained 400 rating points.
By the way I am 1521 and 2084 or like that online.
People here are 2100-2200 online without playing their first tournament.
Magnus needs Ian on his team so he can run away.
😂 sure
It’s a team match, why does Magnus have to play him?
Bro is on his knees for a analbeed user💀💀💀💀
Magnus has won all of his matches except 1 😂😂😂but whatever floats your boat lil bro
Can't lie, seeing how much you are overjoyed by all of this is really funny
Levy u actually are very late i already saw Hikaru's video
🤓
I'm going to start a gofundme to get Levy something to deal with that fuzz all over his face.
Hans lives in Carlsens head rent free😂
I think Magnus is still grieving for his mother, and cant be doing with all the drama right now.
Magnus made himself look like an ass with baseless accusations. He is extremely likely the better player even now but he has lost the mental game so hard because he feels if he loses it vindicates Hanz so he doesn't have the balls to lose. He cannot even risk losing 10% of the time because he is a coward. It is a game, a silly game and he is acting like some morally superior person taking a stand. And against what? 18 year olds cheating in board games. What a loser.
He's slowly turning into Kramnik🤣
maybe he and ian were just taking turns
doesn't want to play against a blowhard, arrogant, cheater with the worst attitude in chess as the best player to ever live. I think he can do that if he wants.
Tone down the pathologising, doc.
@@dariussonofjazzlin7433 Magnus refused to play another two games today. When should I book you an appointment, I'm free next Friday.
Magnus legit scared and ducking Hans... kind of pathetic to be honest. He is too afraid to lose.
