Well, neither Scar nor Darth Vader ever said fuck, so there is that.

Also also Levy: I beat kids.

what did he mean when he said "i'm kind of a villain?" i don't really follow chess and was confused by this statement.

Scar and Darth Vader were made in Levy's memory.@@myakhon

​@@myakhoneither, he was joking because seeing one self as a villain can be fun. Or he could be referencing that some snobby people don't like him because he caters to noobs which is "damaging" to chess. I disagree that levy's approach damages chess, growing the game and bringing in new talent can only be a good thing, but I've heard it said.

A delayed broadcast would fix that

Not for cheating purposes anyway...

Hans in my opinion definitely did not cheat against Magnus. Magnus just lost fair and square and is being a baby abt it also the anal bead accusations are definitely false and was just a meme

@@saatvikranjan3848 Hans cheating was just a much more plausible conclusion, but I guess anything can happen.

True that, I'm rooting for this guy low-key

Still he continues to get away with it

good player, but that's all

It would probably be stupider not to cheat now, since he loses all his credibility if he just loses all his games at such a high elo

Since it's uncatchable if done right, it's entirely possible he's cheated every game he's ever played and actually can't play at all.

The problem, as Levy states, is that we can never know. All the evidence for his cheating is not concrete, however dubious the data looks. And a prior record doesn't confirm or deny anything. Meanwhile Hans himself has no way of confirming his innocence despite his recent rise other than "chess speaks for itself", only, if he was cheating, the chess would always be in his favour so the chess proves nothing anyway. I think the game he played was suspicious, I think if he is honest he got quite lucky by studying the exact line he played very recently before the game, and I think that if he did cheat, he probably stopped as soon as he got under pressure. But, as I say, we can never know for sure unless we get a confession, because there's no way to prove his innocence here

This is a fantastic idea. You sir deserve more upvotes

See the way I'd do it is I'd plant cheating items on my opponents before my games and they'd all get disqualified before I even play them. Meanwhile I myself wouldn't even cheat. I'd then prepare a full presentation on how I planted different cheating methods on every single opponent I faced, resulting in all of their disqualifications. They'd give me the win for sure

@@elmacho1336 the cool thing about this is you'd need zero chess skills but impeccable pick pocketing skills

This is stupid, it wouldn't be a chess tournament. Chess is just a collateral thing in your story. They might as well play any other game in the world. And what's the point of a cheating contest?

After having received nothing. The mutual agreement was "you will loose the case, there's no point in going forward".

Especially when he actually lost in court and everyone involved just allowed him back onto their platform to avoid having to pay legal fees for a frivolous suit.

Clash of clans!

Nah. Once you cheat, permanent ban. It's not some mistake. It's a calculated move to gain an unfair advantage.

I don't like the idea of setting a second chance as a standard because some will interpret it as "you're allowed to cheat and get away with at least once, so use it wisely".

If they can prove it, sure, I agree. That isn't really the case with Hans though

Mostly agree. Though I would say, an adult, over 18 year, if caught definitively cheating = lifetime ban on fist offense. IMHO. And if under 18 get a 2nd chance, but if below 15 maybe not let it count because it's a child.

but it is undoubtedly not fair for your win to be overlooked by a relatively outrageous claim that you cheated it, and for you to get banned from the majority of events, along with a global-scale bad rep from millions of memes spreading misinfo, just because you're pretty average in other games

@@ghetoknight7801it’s not fair? He cheated over and over on chesscom after being caught and saying he wouldn’t do it again. He needs to take responsibility that he brought it all on himself. Also analysis of his games is obviously questionable

​@@ghetoknight7801 Hans already proved himself to lack integrity, he only has himself to blame.

@@LebronCCPWhat do you mean “nah”? Bro was spitting facts.

yeah except we arent talking about doing a single thing wrong - he lied, cheated, and stole, the trinity. To this day he hasnt corrected the lies. Full stop.

woro2k is hans niemann of CS cheated in plenty amount of online competitions somehow is at the top and nobody is actually giving a fuck

That's technically correct but also a bit disingenuous, after all he's not an "adult who did a terrible thing as a kid many year ago" but a 20 year old (who just turned 20) who admited to cheating online during his teen years. Not entirely the same. Again, that is technically true but I completely understand why people are very reactionary about playing him.

absolutesly! Since cheating is not a crime and the most severe punishment is "ban", Hans has nothing to lose! Even with complete online and onboard ban/ nobody wants to play with him/, he has a story to tell. A book to write. It's a fascinating plot - i can see Netflix contracts and a trol community eager for more gastrointestinal content!
