Bro, what are you talking about?? You are hilarious!!! Alireza clearly said in the post interview that he was throwing main lines at Magnus, where if you don't know your stuff and deviate, you lose.

Alireza clearly went by the book. 🤡

Obviously you have no understanding between mainlines and book moves, mainlines are a series of moves considered as the best by top players, and this can change overtime, mainlines can become sidelines and sidelines can become mainlines, but book moves are considered standard especially in opening theory, book moves are played only in the opening phase, mainlines are played in the middlegame, which is why after the last book move, the players are said to be "out of book" .

Also, besides what everyone said before me, I remind you Magnus is known for going off-book to throw opponents off.

@@divinity996 There's nothing creative about memorizing main lines. It pretty straightforward.

“Chess content creator is going to make a video about this very relevant chess event”

​@@elmomierz A big part of it is the clickbait.

@@zachhaywood1564 the title of the video you’re commenting on is “the WILD final game between Magnus and Alireza”, and the thumbnail is literally a blown up picture of magnus reaching out at what looks like an Indiana jones photoshop of Alireza. It’s literally designed to look like a movie poster.

@elmomierz I mean GothamChess' videos are too clickbait-y. This video here is exactly as advertised.

@@zachhaywood1564 I think you’re just milking Levy for likes on your original comment

I mean, Magnus blundered to miss the easy 4th game win.

@@jamesli2545 similar thing happened to Alireza in the last Chess Championship Tournament that happened in bracket reset, no excuses allowed, Alireza BODIED Magnus, its not like getting lucky for 1 game decides the next 3/4 games

@@JT11111 Alireza bodied him after he got tilted. I wouldnt say he was unstoppable, but he certanly outplayed magnus and deserves the win.

@@jamesli2545 tilt is an excuse to deflect from the better player winning, always, Magnus got “tilted” because he realised he’s not the better man tonight, and though he was winning game 4 Alireza still showed resilience that was unexpected by Carlsen and made him blunder

@@jamesli2545 oh common, Alireza only lose the first few games because he's tilted. See how easy to make the same excuse?

One of them, yes.

I think Tania can be a bit overbearing at times.

@@camsaffari could you do better than the other? Didnt think so

@@adka9473 Such a pre-school comment, doesn't make any sense at all...are you 7 years old or something? This response has always been the shittiest logic in the history of mankind and people like you still use it, wtf? It's pretty fucking obvious that one doesn't have to be better at something to recognize that someone else is performing poorly...

​​@@zachhaywood1564 One time (in another stream) she screamed so loud out of nowhere that it scared me for a second. I was genuinely pissed at her.

lol

i swear these videos are ridiculous just because alireza had a bad games for sometimes doesn't mean this guy is done or something every top player had a lot of the same thing and the same thing can be said about magnus he is washed up he should retire 😂 and still destroy every super gm the next day people should just calm down

The Rise and Fall and Rise of Alireza

Not only rise and fall but “tragic rise and fall” 😂😂

Attack on titan

Yea but at the same time if you need to show up in a tournament it’s the Candidates. Respectfully, what are the stakes in this?

@@furstfr money and pride

@@furstfr you can see in Magnus’ face that he really truly wanted to win this. That alone says that this tournament meant something for these players.

Great Game by Alireza he really showed up for these finals fantastic

@cactusbet4355 definitely bot afraid, respectful yes. If the both bring their A+ game Magnus wins 8/10 times

@spghose2437 Magnus was due for a loss. He won 7 or 8 tournaments in a row. MVL did the same thing last year and we saw what happened in Toronto when it actually mattered 😆.

He's in a hotel in morocco.

@@_adeniyi_ idc I'm on about the wallpaper.

@volodelcalabrone or Magnus let him have it and was doing his best poker face to fool the audience. He probably wants Ali in the Finals.

@Astrovic1 something fishy was up imo. Felt like Naroditsky had an inside scoop that Magnus was going to throw this one on purpose, I could definitely be wrong though. Magnus also looked beat or hung over.

Loll😂

There is difference between classical and rapid matches.

Or he is just an online player only... 😁

Hikaru can't accept that hikaru isn't 120 elo better in classic. So, to compensate he is arrogant.

They are both arrogant

How is he arrogant? Maybe like 9 or 10 years ago

I don't see how that's relevant here 🤡

@@name6771 Hikaru can play vs chessmaster eleven, 10min+3. In classical, Chessmaster 11 plays at a level of 2920 elo vs humans.

Not really, maybe Duda or Pragg.

@gingerbread4801 alcohol the night before a tournament is Magnus' cryptonite. MVL did this exact same thing to Magnus and then we saw Magnus stomp everyone including MVL in Toronto. He was due for an L either way, the man's been winning every single tournament he's played in.

He's just so happy when he wins, hahaha. It's a joy to see. But the Magnus effect makes Firouzja's win here pretty sweet.

@michaelmassaro4375 Magnus was hung over or tired from playing teo tournaments so definitely not on his A game. Missed way too many tactics that he normally would see in his sleep, that or he was sandbagging and played it off like he wasn't. MVL beat Magnus this same way last year and we saw what happened in Toronto when it came to the big money.

I think playing like this was his main problem in the candidates! Can't expect playing like you have white in a blitz Armageddon to work at the candidates !!

Stop comparing classical chess and these 10/15 min formats... Nobody would give him an opportunity to play like this in the candidates ))

Nah, he'd get bodied, totally different playstyle. But this proves that Guccireza has one of the best instincts for the game.

​@@samandmax42 Sounds like recency bias to me. He's historically been great at classical too. won a few high profile tourneys as well. But he just has failed to take classical seriously lately, which is a shame.

Dude just described the entire concept of chess.

@@TravelleroftheMicrocosmos And in his mind probably thought he made a solid point.

Alireza has talent too

They didn’t played just one game so the better player today was who? Sounds weird to hear this as a competitor🤷‍♂️ sounds more like an excuse! I prefer the W

This wasnt prep , Alireza just outplayed Magnus period.

Nice joke 😂

Yeah you're delusional

ok

You almost got me...

Take that L
