It's wild that we live in aa time where the undisputed best player doesn't even want to play for the chess world champion title but hes still dominating the sport
Preparing for the chess world championship is more intense than any final exam that 99.999% will ever write. It’s so much work and so much time. And then you play for a month against one person. I understand Magnus’ decision tbh
Nahhh, playing those long and grueling matches for over a week is no fun. That title is out dated in 2023.
His Loss
the format is the problem. it's a complete snoozefest and it's mainly FIDEs loss as nobody will care who has the title as long as it's just a vanity contest for the second best players
@@michaelmassaro4375Not at all. It's chess loss, because the world champion title is kind of tainted now, and will be until we get the two best players to fight for it.
There is GM, there is Super GM and there is MAGNUS!
true haha
Grand master, super grand master, super duper grand master!
Can’t spell MaGnus without GM!
There is Naka, there is Gotham and there is Epic Chess!
That sums it up.
This attack came so suddenly out of the opening. He was tired and said he was not feeling 100%, scary if he is 100%. Thanks James.
Probably he would go to a dominating endgame if he was feeling 100%😂
Officially my favourite chess channel now. Been here since 12k subs. Love the confidence and swagger and jokes that are developing. Hope you can make enough from these vids to keep going a long time. Really enjoying your work, thank you
also he has a nice chin
@@lunaretic3 a sexy man for sure 😝
Yup - been with James now for ages - can't remember the last time I watched Agad. 😃
@@blaze1148 if you do psychadelics, if, then agad is the best when in that state. Random comment from me but yeah. Otherwise, epic’s raw enthusiasm and personality is just so good. Hope he maintains it. Both are great tho
I think i understand more with his explanation.
Congrats to Carlsen on winning the tournament with 16/21 (and somehow losing 1 rating point in the process)!
Crazy!
GOAT issues lol
«Magnus is a boy's name with Latin origins. In Latin, this name is a direct translation meaning “greatest”. Magnus is a popular name throughout Scandinavia and was first introduced to the region by the Norwegian king, Magnus I.»
What a week of chess, beautiful games. Thank you for picking this one since we didn't get much cover from the broadcast (awful technical synchronization/transmission). Keep it up 🎉
Magnus acting out Oppenheimer saying I am become Death
That line is cool even though dark
The three goats of chess are: Magnus, Drunk Magnus, and Late Magnus
kasparov is the goat
without a doubt
maybe at classical chess still, but Magnus is the overall goat if you take into consideration all formats: classical, blitz, rapid.@@tonimisetic
@@tonimisetic lmao literally how. He's still around. Magnus would knock him around.
Keep up the amazing work, James. I rarely miss any of your recaps. And they are getting funnier and more entertaining. I predict in a couple of years this will be the leading chess recap channel on YT.
Thanks v much!
Agree. James' channel is the best chess channel because he does not delve endlessly into alternative lines yet shows us some critical things that are needed to understand the traps these masters usually don't fall into (but we would).
i love the commentary as if it was a football match commentary
Thanks!
It’s nice how they explain a move and at last they say it was not played.Brilliant
Best three chess player on our lovely planet right now:
1.Cagnus Marlsen
2.exhuasted Magnus
3. Drunk Magnus.
Thanks for all those lovely recaps throughout 2023 and the banters ofc😂
Happy New Year to you and your family and everyone here. Congrats, Magnus, and better luck for the other players🎉
I just commented that lol
Your recaps are so good. Please keep on.
Ty!
Great video.
Seems to be a lack of Indians in the top 20 blitz, but a lot of Russians.
Btw Wesley's attack against Magnus in the CCT finals was the attack of the year. That was incredible.
Thanks a lot and True that was special, I covered that game as well
3:25 what was the problem with Nd5 and just giving a pawn and then defend the b7Knight
I am frankly very impressed with how Alexey recovered from that brutal attack by Magnus in the beginning. What a fighter ! GM class.
What a nice video bro, congratulations, The way you comment is amazing, I learn and enjoy at the same time, thank you for trying so hard in these videos
thanks a lot glad you enjoyed!
The Mag is killing it.
😂 You always got jokes
Thanks for the great commentary, making the game fun to watch and understand!
No worries thanks a lot!
Hi Epic Chess, great job with your channel, fast-paced and entertaining. A great combination.
Thanks a lot
you've got a new sub hope you keep up the content and passion and don't go too cheesy bus love that it's real and about the chess
Thanks a lot glad you enjoyed! Appreciate it
Wow you can see Magnus’s ability in that game planning several moves in advance one good move leading to an even better one no wonder he defeats everyone a chess mastermind for sure thanks for the game James enjoy your day
I love your videos. I laugh, learn and enjoy. Cheers from Portugal!
Thanks a lot!
Thank you for the videos! This channel is quickly becoming my favorite chess channel. Compared to my previous favorite, Gothamchess, these videos are way more polished and efficient. More info and laughs per minute by my subjective measure, and these videos don't suddenly skip a whole bunch of moves like Gotham often does when he goes over games.
Thanks very much!
It's insane that these moves were played in a 3-minute blitz game!
Great videos. Lots of energy
Thanks very much glad you’re enjoying them all! Cheers for watching
Epic Chess never fails to be held hostage
Haha
Magnus never fails to include Epic Chess in these videos.
Epic Chess needs to come out of the closet!! Happy New Year, mate!
Magnus has been doing wonders recently and here a fine attack but from the description i'd expected something devastating and decisive from it whereas Sarana, admittedly with very little time left, blundered at the end. Magnus too good for him of course, far above the rest, an incredible achievement to be so dominant
He came in the last few months hard.
another great video, thank you!
Hi worries Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching
wait the beginning looks like firouzja zarkovic 2019 which is my 3rd or 4th favorite game of all time
True!!
How's the air quality in there?
Average haha
Everything about the past 5 years for Magnus has just affirmed the goat status. Beyond the obvious classical championships, he’s just had these winning streaks and utter dominance in a world full of historically strong young competition.
However, had the arbiters not forfeited Daniel Dubov against Nepo, he would have finished tied with of Magnus.
@@raylopez99 no denying dubov’s results in blitz. Easily one of my favorite blitz players.
Congratulations Magnus
I’ve been studying chess A LOT since the lockdown and I gotta say it’s either massively brave, massively stupid, or both to use the Sicilian against Magnus. He effortlessly knows every line in an E4, C4 game
I'm impressed with your analyses and comments. Your chess channel is fantastic. You've become my top source for chess information.
Thanks a lot!
I'm just gonna keep saying it until players learn. Magnus PROTECTS HIS KING. It's why he wins. Look at this game at the 5 minute mark. Magnus has an ideal castled King and 2nd rank pawn defense. Meanwhile, Black has his king moved out towards the center of the board completely exposed doing god knows what. Again, why aren't we castling quickly against Magnus? Why aren't we focusing on King safety the way he is? Trust me, you aren't going to outplay him by getting cute and taking him off book, so just stick to fundamentals and protect your KING!
Did he play plow in any of the rapid or blitz games?
Haven't seen any games yet.
Negative :(
Nothing wrong with coming out of the closet on You Tube! Sincerely though, thank you for the daily dose, I'm sure I speak for everyone who is a fellow subscriber when I say, thank you and we love your style! All the best for 2024!
Haha and thanks very much !
Nice result for Dubov too...
Yeah I’m gonna do a game of his tonight
Had the arbiters not forfeited Daniel Dubov against Nepo, he would have finished tied with Magnus.
That’s where I’m at right now 😂
No matter what closet, commentary is still top notch. Keep rolling :-)
Haha thanks a lot
Please don't leave the closet 😹
Haha I thought when I was saying it as well hang on this sounds dodgy 😆
Oh boy
10 wins in a row (i.e. adoption) in such tournament isn't impossible for Carlsen. He has already pulled such feat before in accelerated/blitz chess. Sometimes, he seems just bored over the board and not motivated enough to play at 100% of his capability. No serious rivals I guess
Had the arbiters not forfeited Daniel Dubov against Nepo, he would have finished tied with Magnus.
I've got like 3 pairs of shoes I've had for 5 years, this guy on the other hand. I'd love to have this variety of footwear.
Nuclear Napoleon Madness Carlsen
Wow cool game.
Mum's Closet always better than Mum's basement!! Happy new Year to you and yours !!
Same to you! Haha

Why wasn't Hikaru competing in Blitz/Rapid this year?
I think just cba
Mums closet lol😂
Do you make videos of Carlsen's losses?
The video would only be about 6 minutes!
Yeah they just don’t happen often haha
@@epicchess2021 I figured lol.. thanks for your great videos I actually learn from them!
Please don't tell people you live in closets they might get the wrong idea🤣🤣🤣
😆true lol
Maximus Carlsenus.
haha perfect
Where is ding liren, is he retired?
Back at Tata steel this month
Une partie venue de l'espace👍
merci pawnoir!
No one would dispute the fact that Magnus is the best.
What is Ding doing these days? WC must seem very hollow.
Playing Tata steel soon
I was really hoping that the Dubovinator was going to win, he was so close!
russia loses as usual )
The game against Nepo really cost him
Yep it's rigged for Magnus clearly. Agreed draws are 100% fine!!
They were taking a piss off the whole tournament (mind you it’s the WCC) and prearranged a draw before the game even started. They should get DQ and not just 0points.
@@dooflydetailguuy4349clowns got punished as they should. It’s a WCC and not a kindergarten
Just a note: had the arbiters not forfeited Daniel Dubov against Nepo, he would have finished tied with of Magnus. Shame that they had to forfeit these two for a draw, which is standard.
If they were not forfeited I think the pairings would have been different
@@jarlardo yes, perhaps Dubov would have faced Carlsen, that would have been fair.
Magnus accepted a draw in the last game because that was all he needed to win the tournament. He would not have done that if there had been another player tied on score!
Magnus Carlson will have so many improbable movies made about him one day, and people will say, but nobody can be that stoned and that good lol! Ayrton Senna, Usaine Bolt, Mike Tyson, Ellen MacArthur, Magnus Carlson. These are my sporting heroes! Also, who was that incredible quarterback who got slammed for dog fighting? As an animal lover, I think they failed to take into account his background culture, but anyway. I also liked that german driver who skiid into a tree, but somewhat ironically, I've forgotten his name :P
smashed like. smashed subscribe.
Thanks very much appreciate it!
So the 0.5 really cost Dubov
I’m a little late but checking in for my daily dose of epic chess
Thanks!
Baaaaaaaaaaa! GOAT, GOAT, GOAT!
It's very hard to play that way in blitz, but Magnus can do it.
Dubov 15.5 with the 0 in his draw against Nepo
Oh yeah I meant to mention that but forgot!
But Magnus beat Dubov right? So Magnus would have won anyways? Or am I mistaken?
@@MrNemesis85 I think they would have played a tie break match. If the match is drawn then the tie breaks scores are the deciding factor.
Thanks!@@amedeosantini3911
Id like to see magnus play against AI
Magnum is Apotik
9:16 Russia no flags ? Why ?? Anyone ??
They are all playing under international lately
@@epicchess2021 ok, because i saw flags of others countries, except the Russian flag.
Guys... dare I say it.... is he getting better?!
7:49 Bc6, the same move shown to be the game winner later is ignored to make a point. The point is a lie because the solution was purposefully avoided being saved for the big ending. Time, time, time.
And you cant spell Magnus with GM. Undisputed GOaT.
At least the closet is in focus
😂
Ok, I think that's enough Magnus content for a while. There are other players you know ;)
Yeah but no one seems to want much else, I’m tending to just follow what’s trending and no longer feeling bad for it or gonna apologies tbh, just giving the ppl what they want! I will do a couple varieties tho. Like tomorrow morning I’m gonna do a Dubov video, watch how it tanks, mark my words lol. And each video takes a lot of effort so you can kinda understand why I’m hesitant to put in tons of effort for videos that not many want! Maybe if I was a bigger channel idk
i get magnus did well but it looks like.his opponent made some wrong tactic play
I was expecting caruana to win this tournament. He lost to 2500 rated players. Every player has some weakness. But magnus is a too good. Will he play candidates.
Unlikely to play candidates!
Serana is a Russian Grandmaster.
maybe changed the nation??wiki says no...
@@rainerwahnsinn9585 he changed Federation, just as Raport did and many others do
Oh sorry yeah flag threw me
If your wife knows you’re in the closet, are you even in the closet?
#Schrodinger’sCloset
😂😂 I realised when I said that it sounds very dodgy haha
Human? No, something more.
Prefer epic chess, he doesnt ball at you like gotham chess.
I have to say, while the whole cheating thing has been brushed to the side, it's definitely notable that Magnus is still innovating at the game while the guy who was achieved of cheating doesn't seem to be generating the kind of news nearly as much, if at all.
Enjoy your mother's closet-one can imagine the food will be good! Loving your succint explanations, pacing and content.
hahaha Thanks a lot glad you enjoyed!
Best attacking game of 2023? Such a drama queen like Levy
Game of The Year?? Gimme a break. The #1 rated player just crushed a lesser known GM in blitz.
50% of the top 20 is from Russia wtf.
Take your time if you're not ready to get out of the closet for now
😆
Carlsen is the chess god, YOu think.?? THere were muchz better players in the past undnot jus twith thos marketingn support. Yoiu mus tne crazy...
Your commentary is as good as is your writing.
where was Nakamura? he is a blitz god
Carlsen is the best in all 3 time controls. Hikaru is about the same level in blitz if Magnus is trying.
I'd say he's a demi-god given that he's never won either the rapid or the blitz WCC.
Full God status should be reserved for someone who for example wins them 12 times...
@@noone-ld7pt 👍😊 wow surprising
When will Epic Chess come out of the closet?
😂 yeah wasn’t the best thing to say only realised after haha
Dude don't come out of the closet lol
Haha yeah realised how it sounds after said it lol 😆
it's ridiculous they don't show the russian flag. A country isn't it's politics. WP Magnus!
Wow even the smallest repercussion for invading a smaller neighboring country gets you coming to Putin’s defense, Mr Obermayr… I hope Putin appreciates your support
@@mcronrn can you read? What part of differentiating a country and it's politics did you not understand? Is it too nuanced to stretch 1simple thought into 2? Chess players, competitors in sports etc. represent their country, 100s of years of culture and you think removing the flag from a chess tournament is anything but a petty gesture?
Reactionist mislead interpretations like yours are not helpful to any cause.
I see that. @@gerryteiglandeide9902
@@mcronrnStop being histrionic. Putin isn't lying awake about a flag not showing, it's just disrespectful to the actual players of the game.
@@mcronrn Oh really? Then why is the Israel flag not censored?
maNgus was carried away. The second time u asked can you spot the genius move, I found it, and I if I find it, it's not that genius.
Or maybe you’re getting quite good 😁
If you evaluate positions like you give games titles, you must be a bad player. I'm tired of your constant deception. Last days of the year and you're calling a regular messy game "best attack of the year". Lying is not the way to make an audience. You'll get me here once or twice but then never again. You don't even have important commentary because your mind is set on inflating the moves made by the winner.
Sorry to have frustrated , was posing it as a question, it was pretty special I thought given the context
Best attack of the year is subjective anyway, so why the hell call him a liar? He is entitled to his opinion, nothing deceptive about it. It certainly was a game worth watching
@@jarlardo shades of grey are subjective, but no light grey is black.
@@epicchess2021 you know your click-bait is shameless, and shameless click-bait pollutes everybody's video feed.
@@tomasseeber he does a good job but I get your point. There is a lot of click-baiting thumbnails and titles on UA-cam.
from a completely winning game to a draw only being saved by an absolute blunder. Yeah, this was not great.
