Insane play by Kasparov. This guy is checkmating 2700+ rated players in the middle game, like they were 700. Makes it look relatively easy too. Many players would prefer to try to win a pawn, then trade everything to go into the endgame. Garry lets his pawns hang and actively avoids trades to checkmate some of the best players who ever touched a chess piece.

I watched a little of his classic games before where it looked like he solved certain positions but I didnt want to study what he did in case it ruined chess for me. Watching this, he and Carlson do contextually understand positions so thoroughly, surgically is great description. Fischer tactically is maniac too, so they'd probably all stalemate each other, understanding engagements offensively/defensively, so precisely.

Kasparov was the best player in TWO different eras. 1. The last great champion of the era of the Soviet school of chess, and, 2. The first great player of the "silicon" era of chess engines. IMO, that unique ability to adapt to changing times makes Garri #1.

Good point! 🙂

@billj4525 Ай бұрын

That's an interesting reason and I like it. I always had Garry as the GOAT over Magnus slightly still, but I never considered that reason you mentioned, which is a good one. Magnus needs more longevity to catch Garry in my opinion. Fischer had an unbelievable peak, but had 0 longevity. Players from many many years ago just can't be compared accurately at all. We have no clue at all about Morphy, Capabalanca, Lasker, and others. We know they were super talented, but that's it. Garry is the GOAT, unbelievable player.

@pjakobson1 6 ай бұрын

Kind of a silly assertion "greatest chess player ever". Bobby Fisher wins the US Open without losing a game, pretty remarkable. Go back to Paul Morphy, he was head and shoulders better than his contempraries and his games are still analyzed and used as examples of brilliant play, pretty remarkable. Going through the annals of chess history one can find 4 brilliant chess games for any number of grand masters and world champions. Emanuel Lasker, for example, held the world championship for 27 consecutive years, the longest ever and he played seven world championship matches, pretty remarkable. The list of world champions is filled with the "greatest ever" games, streaks, 4 game clusters so don't even go there. Kasparov is definitely great and these games certainly are examples of his greatness.

@wchambers3849 6 ай бұрын

It would've been remarkable if it were true. Fischer won the 1963/64 U. S. Championship 11-0, not the U. S. Open. They're different tournaments.

@hellothere9763 6 ай бұрын

Honestly it is between magnus and kasparov. Bobby a d PM were great at time, but one lacked logetivity whereas other was ahead of his time in time when chess wasnt remotely as popular. They are all greats of the game, but talent wise Kasparov and Magnus are class above

Hey! I like your channel and think you’ll do great! Hopefully this does not sound rude, but your presentation seems a bit “over-rehearsed”, almost like you’re reading it from a script. it may be good if you slowed down just a bit and left some room for stutters and pauses that come with natural speech. Maybe you could framework your video but not memorize it word for word. IMPROVISE a bit…let your personality come through. 😊

Garry is definitely the best ever, but Magnus is catching up. He needs many more years of longevity and continued accomplishments to do so though. He's not slowing down, so we'll see if he can get there. Time will tell.

Of course not, but Lasker played in a different era. It's not fair to compare them directly at all. Chess was a completely different game when Lasker played.

I’m not decrying Lasker back in his day he was one of a handful of world class players and if they had had computers with chess engines he might have even surpassed Kasparov’s genius

No longevity, which is why Kasparov and Carlsen are greater. Fischer was super talented, and had he kept playing the chess world potentially could have been a lot different. I still think no one would have stopped Garry.

@renehenriksen1735 22 күн бұрын

The best players ever? Probably Tal, Fischer and Kasparov. But Carlssen, Karpov and Capablanca were also very good, allthough not quite as spectacular as the first trio. If Magnus wants people to accept him he would be wise if he removed and never let that mouth-pussy of his grow big. He probably thinks he looks like a tough viking-king. Others think he looks like a human from the stone-age who just climbed down from the trees and discovered that the flat ground isn´t dangerous. And now as a fully evolved chessmaster he uses his pieces as clubs against his opponents. Not bad for a caveman eh??

Kasparov is not the greatest chess player ever. Probably not even in the top 5. Bobby Fischer is the best player ever. I base this on his rating to year ratio and his dominance over his peers. Karpov is good and is his equal in skill but at a later time. By default that makes Bobby better.
