#gmhikaru #chess #tierlist
My top pick for god of chess, is stockfish :Kappa
43:10 Hikaru basically predicted that Ding Liren will fight for World Championship title in 2023
Since there was even a Phoolan devi, it is only fair to call Anand ji a Shatranj deva.
What you're looking for: 8:53
Why is Legacy and outside of game factors weighted so Highly? Not just in this video but in many other tier lists (E.g. Calling Muhammad Ali the greatest but not necessarily the best).
It is fantastic to be remembered for your impact in the world but in a ranking shouldn't the one who would beat the other guy be on top?
I am not a chess expert I watch mostly football but I see the same issues here in rankings. Longevity should also be a factor. If you are the best for just a short time and then vanish then I don't think you can claim the same stature as someone who is as great but for far longer.
With this in mind only Carlsen and Kasparov truly are duelling for the title of GOAT. I don't think even Fischer would have beaten them.
22:43 They took 28 years to analyze cuz Albert Einstein was finally born.
43:25 this aged not so well
45:08 Fine tied first place in AVRO with Paul Keres. Consider Fine and no consider Reshevsky?
Where is Wesley So?
the fact that levy was even thinking if vishy should pe god of chess or undisputed no 1 is disgusting, how can a 5 time world champ be not on the top of list
i had to stick a paper note on my screen to not see this retarded chat
The chess speaks for itself. It comes from Levy.
4.20.
Now I know where the Hans meme come from.
where is Tal? he is the vintage alphazero.
Where's the rest?
The face of Indian chess – Vishy Anand
Fair assignments. But saying chess was not part of Indian culture is plain wrong. 10:41
It was just that Indians we were not playing it as sport. India invented chess and we are reclaiming its glory.
He was India's first grandmaster by the way… 👀
What about Maurice Ashley?!
kasparov, fisher, carlsen, anand, morphy.. top 5… no debate
8:57
Reti is another one @32:25
At an age 50+, is a serious contender in any tournament in any format and routinely beats top 10 players whenever he plays. Belongs to the absolute top apart from his contributions to Indian chess. Also a gentleman champion in the likes of Botvinnik, Spassky, Karpov and Kramnik. No drama, just chess!!!
Love the Booker T reference
alyoki LOL
48:15 getting Hans Niemann vibes
48:16 Levy predicted the chess speaks for itself… Levy's a Prophet!!
robert james fisher?
no god except allah
HAHAHAH
uzbekistan chess GOD 2022
Who the hell could see that coming in a video about greatest chess-players in the world? GM-Hikaru with wrestling-reference. I love wrestling
Carlsen is the only G.O.A.T.
There was a period when carlsen was undefeated for 120 matches all heads down to this god of chess
If carlsen is fully determined to win and applies all his potential no chess player on the planet can defeat him
Carlsen can be only defeated when he plays for fun
36:05 you must indeed be afraid from soldier of God.
This is laughable in that they claim they don't know much about many of the players but still go rank them and history of chess/revolutionary moves invented counts for almost nothing here. Most of the older GODs will disagree about many names here.
48:15 "chess speaks for itself" Hans Niemann = Bobby Fischer???
Bobby Fischer, self taught, no coach, no engine, legit genius…..
Fischer belongs on his own category above all others.
Carlsen > anand for me ngl
As a chess culture dumb dumb (as well as commenting a question on a 2+ yr old video) I'd like to ask if GM H is a sole representative of US? He mentioned Israel's GM, leading me to ask, is he inferring each country has one active GM solely rep-ing US, and then for how long until you have to compete with community of GMs to secure spot? Yearly? Per game? Number/rank?
anand best
Lol, Hikaru knows 100x more chess history than Levy. Half the time Levy was googling and acted like he was thinking of what he was saying lmao.
Great video but how is Adolf Great but unlucky bc he couldn’t beat the top 2? That has nothing to do with luck. He just wasn’t better. Need another category. “Almost Great” or something.
And I think Judit over Magnus is a little ridiculous bc how much better Magnus is over the board. She’s a great player but only as high as number 8. Unless you consider off the board stuff more Godly than on the board stuff.
I’m two years late so I’ll see myself out.
@gothamchess I see you soon boi
Where is mikhail tal?
Anand is no inspiration , he looks dead to me 😀 But probably much nicer 😀
Carlsen have done more for Chess than the entire chess players born before him in total; period!
48:16 is all that mat ters.
Rubenstein is the god of rook endgames
