    watching Magnus flip the switch at the end from playing strategically for the endgame advantage to mating within a few moves -- absolute killer instinct. I'm by no means a good chess player, but even still my brain struggles to hold the ability to calculate multiple win conditions like that at the same time. we are so lucky to live at a time where all time greats can play and provide commentary in real time for the whole world to see.

      It's a challenge, they know they're facing Magnus. When Magnus is on a banter blitz on chess24, many challengers test themselves against him

    I'd love to play Magnus someday, probably wouldn't have a chance but it would be fun to see the difference and perhaps have my mistakes explained, but haven't played a game in 4 years so I would probably need some freshening up on the gray brain cells too
    It is always enjoyable to see a good chess match and kudos to Yon606, great effort and good game

      It's possible if Magnus has banter blitz on chess24. Premium members stand a chance to get their challenges accepted for these kind of instructional videos, between any rating range

    Carlsen always makes it look way too easy..
    I just imagine him being this professor of a certain subject, explaining all the intricacies of the topic in a very comprehensive way that will be understable to anyone who has surface knowledge about the subject.
