I am amazed at how thousands of ideas are getting displayed to me, whilee my brain registers nothing but danya’s voice 😂
I'm confused. It wasn't check mate at the end
First time I've had to watch a YouTube video on slower speed.
I like one commentator for blitz games & DN did a good job
I am caught by the ''clickbait title'' and have just seen that the title tells the truth indeed! Hats off for both players…
Commentators…
Very clever and fun game. I like games like this. Because the clocks become important to pressure. While magnus is Down on time. The opponent needs to keep pressure on the clock or his time becomes magnus’s time to think as well. So magnus used his time perfectly. Where it reverse pressured the opponent. Forcing him to keep moving until they made a mistake he could exploit.
And that resulted in two queens😂
Insane game
Feel so lucky living in a time where he’s alive and a madman
It was not a bad game on Rapport's side
what's the over under on how many days its been since either one of these guys have bathed?
5:08 …Qf5?! could be met with Bg4, pinning the black queen against the rook. …Rce8 doesn't help, as White could just take that rook with a Queen and be up the whole piece after all the dust settles. Running away with the queen (…Qxf7 or …Qh7) results in a nasty exchange for Black, as they would have to give up the rook for White's light-square bishop. Bg4 is a killer pin, is it not? What am I missing?
They are not human!
imagine being so good at chess you do it for a living
I noticed because Magnus is so good at the endgame that he never saves time for it because he almost always lags a minute down on time in the middle game where he focuses the most setting up a good endgame for him.
wow
Rapport was brilliant
crazy
Next level commentary. Thanks!
Magnus vs Kurt Cobain
God damn
-10, no problemo. I get stressed when i am -3
Lmao americans commentating is the most annoying thing in the world. Is there a video without a yank chirping in my ear and giving me a headache?
That's horse sacrifices really mind blowing
I don't get why he didn't just take the castle on C8 earlier, it had no defence
I love Magnus smile at the end😍
Magnus is as impressive as always with his play, you almost expect that to happen… buut Daniel's commentary was just INSANE. I have seen him stream, and heard him before announcing major events, but this was next level. Truly grabbed your hand, your attention, and led you through what felt like a whirlwind of adventure instead of a chess match.
Can someone explain what happened at 8:05?
Wow
7:28 can someone explain why Q.b7 isn’t mate in one? I’m so lost why Magnus isn’t playing this. I must be missing something
Kurt Cobain
What’s the deal with the Elvis hairstyle 😂
You can see laughter from BOTH players there
No. No you cannot.
This was easily one of the most intense and entertaining game I ever watched..
laughter from just one player not two
Absolutely unbelieveable!!! And perfect commentary by Daniel!
Phenomenal commentary, I realize that shouldn’t be the take away
Never mind if it's Blitz or Classical, this is one of the best Games of Chess I have ever watched!! Love Magnus' very Human Reaction!!
The chess playing was OK, but the guy calling the game was incredible!!!
What a game
What a great game! Great play on both sides!
wow
am i the only one or the the game is still not over🤨
great
!!
SUMMARY IF MAGNUS OFFER DRAWS TAKE IT AND NEVER PLAY WITH HIM AGAIN :3
farm idiot
daniels narration is always top notch haha
Nice 💪✝️
I swear it’s these videos by Danya reviewing blitz games that made Gotham start to do his weird WWE “the rooook” style commentating. He saw how everyone loves it and tries to emulate it
How can someone refuse a perpetual check with black against Magnus?
