  1. Interview with Magnus:
    «So, how do you feel?»
    «B*tch, how the f**k do you think I feel?»

  2. Yo why is the beat at the begining so fucking amazing?

  3. such an amazing competition. it was the best chess match i watched. nvr seen such a great commentators and presentation about chess. i watched all 5 hrs right away after 1 month .

  4. Hikaru looks identical to me when I'm totally not looking at my other monitor during an online test

  5. I want to b the goat in chess but i wonder how we can do that two 6-0 matches ,best player for 20 years, highest rated player ever etc. magnus is already retired and i permission from him if i can b the interim world champion im going to defend my title but the games r pre arranged and im going to win , i just like the thought of it makes me happy please do it

  6. Daniel really developing into a good commentator. Robert of course always professional and succinct. Great chemistry, good enthusiasm and energy. Great to watch.

  7. 2:46:32. Magnus Carlson hanging a full piece. I'm not sure if I've ever seen it, not sure if I'll see it again. Never beat yourself up over a chess blunder. Even Magnus isn't immune.

  8. 2:27:18 magnus could’ve almost forced a checkmate, or getting a rook by placing knight f3

  9. How do we know they don't cheat when the championship is broadcasted from home ?

  10. Magnus still beat hikaru in 2 out of 3 time controls

  11. how is it a thing to bleed it out, lame concept,, just play to win wtf….

  12. Best commentators. I felt like both players are playing inside an octagon.

  13. Hikaru is the Vegeta of chess and Magnus is Goku. Vegeta became a Super Saiyan by not caring anymore.

  14. Magnus: puts hoodie on because its cold
    Announcer: He wants to be the grim reaperr!!!!

  15. 1:55:50
    This is Basic Brian?
    No dude. It’s mate in 10.
    The commentary bias though..

  16. “This isn’t Amongus, yo have to play chess!” – Robert Hess

  17. People in chat at the end were saying "pathetic win" lmaoooo I bet your elo is 600

  18. The Magnus fans were coping so hard in the chat Jesus Christ 😭

  19. Anyone who knows the track starting from 2:56:27 ?It wuld be much appreciated if someone can help me find it.Thanks in advance

  20. I wonder if Magnus can see Hikaru's expression at 3:13:00 when c4 threatened a queen trade.

  21. magnus is better at 3+1 and bullet, whereas hikaru pretty much dominated in 5+1

  22. Damnnn i never knew Hikaru played about 30k games n Magnus played 1k😭

  23. Lets go Hikaru GOAT. No Disrespect to Magnus tho.

  24. i would love if the commentators wouldnt interupt the board so much with the possible moves 😀

  25. Hikaru like true american chess player. . .
