When you see how games like this end so beautifully, it's a harsh reminder that being a top-ranked, world class chess player is NOT just about memorizing countless opening lines; it's about having a deep positional, strategic, and tactical understanding of the game!
#suggestion.. You can compare the situation of Anand now being accompanied by many new and upcoming 2700+ Indian players to the Avengers' Endgame scene.. Where Captain America stands alone and then all the Avengers assemble :)
In short time formats such as Blitz and Bullet, He is beast on the level of Hikaru! In Rapid, He is slightly behind Pragg! In Classical, he will prove himself later!
You asked me to think about what move I would make and I thought of c4 in 5 seconds. I like sacrificing pieces for board position Also i was thinking instead of Ra1, nf4 Less complicated
In response to RA1 (the star move), if white plays QE1 then F2 is covered, so the knight would no longer have it as a mating square, and the rook on G2 would also have support. That pinned rook on G2 would then become stronger, and the 1st rank would also be adequately defended. I think QE1 would have solved the attack. RxB1 could then be safely followed by QxR. Black would only have a draw in that scenario (repetitions of NF2+, KG1, NH3+, KH1, etc.).
I have lost Agad 💔 Sarif font on youtube is just no no no 💔 Impossible to watch now 💔 I have many old once to rewatch thankfully ❤️ Excuse any poor english thank you please ❤️ Sans sarif font back at once please please please ❤️
After Black's rook to a1, doesn't Qb3 save the game for Axel? No action Black takes with either of the two rooks will work after that, it seems. Edit: okay, that doesn't work, only Qe1 and then to c1 would stop cm.
Nihal is the new Vasyl Ivanchuk, he almost always has the better position but he most definitely ALWAYS is in time trouble... If I watch too many of Nihal's games I will grow old before my time...
@@michaelmassaro4375 I wholehearted agree... Infact for a player like me it would have been impossible to find those moves at all and just to clarify I absolutely love Nihal's "never say die" spirit and I love Chucky... I'm just saying they both have the same idiosyncrasies...
Pragg and gukesh might be stronger or even vidit but they're play is too positional and dare I say boring.. But this Nihal style I like.. Creating complete havoc on the board. Very tactical player just like our dear anand
Hi , Antonio we need you to pick 5 games or 6 in one video recap for the round , Is Better than watching 1 game in video sure you can't analysis too much but it will be more fun that we watch alot of games through you ❤

10:17 nihal moved to complete move 40. So that he can get additional time to think
Will Nihal, Gukesh, Arjun and Pragg represent India in the next team olympiad? That's gonna be super fun to watch.
That's already a scary line-up. To realize that they are all U-20 is even more scary! Golden days lie ahead for Indian Chess.
'people play sometimes with their food ', Agadmator. This metaphor is real.😂😂
I don’t think he would purposely try to humiliate his opponent to me it lacks class but only he knows
@@michaelmassaro4375 he wad gaining time.
He was talking about how some animals play with its food[prey) for fun then kill and eat them
Dirty dirty
Mr. Morphy looks so indian now
Reincarnation doesn't care about race it seems 😉
I believe you went life before life😊
Antonio works for Disney confirmed
@@nestorv7627😂😂
It would be a crime if agad did not show this game, Thank you agad for Entertaining us with good content always ❤️!!
I like watching a couple of your videos to get me warmed up to start playing
You can repeat it as many times as you want but not too many because then it's a draw - Agadmator
12:17 Food 😂😂😂 Also cheers to Agad's Title creativity game. 💯💯
Very glad to see Axel on your channel! Good paraguayan GM! making us proud
Nihal is one of the most solid and trickiest player in junior chess.
Brilliant Game
Solid in classical. Tricky in blitz and bullet
Junior??
@@manutandon8424 u are a junior in chess till 20
Yes, even as a junior he defeated Magnus many times in blitz and bullet.
We were to understand that players doing moves like this were to receive Morphy-Heads?
I like this new background theme.. so formal, so clean
Nihal played the Knight moves to reach the time control limit of 40 moves in 2 hrs.
Nihal is a beast 🔥🐐
@agad you promised a concluding video of Mophy saga. The saga leaves us tantalizing not to know more about later life of Mr. Morphy.
@suggestion he promised an update on the sagas in general too
Thank you Agad 🎉

Thanks!

#suggestion Anand mentioned that Wei's round 2 game 1 was also a masterpiece like Pragg's. Maybe you can check it.
Enjoyed❤
Nihal might not show growth like Gukesh. But you rarely see him lose a game... He's too hard to defeat
In short time formats such as Blitz and Bullet, He is beast on the level of Hikaru! In Rapid, He is slightly behind Pragg! In Classical, he will prove himself later!
Fantastic Game Brilliant Checkmate Good defensive reply by Black vs the English

Less complicated
Love a man who doesn't want to trick us🎉
Good game selection. I enjoyed. Ty.
Triple WOW! Tal is laughing!
That was a great checkmate
This is almost an immortal. Beautiful.
Antonio , good job as always .
Fantastic
No vidit was harmed or ignored till 1:00😂😂
Very big tribute to gukesh...godspeed

If Nf4 after Qe1?
@@neelszz NF4 would be decisive! Game over. Good move!
@@epiclover8639 I agree. Nf4 is a great response to Qe1 that @neelszz brought to our attention.
Sweet! How many chances does one have for a smothered mate? I'll be paying more attention to this young man!
Loving the Musashi quotes
Last night I chanced upon the 70-video Danil Dubov saga that agadmator has compiled. I will never catch up, but I shall remain happy!
Seen winning move.. follow up is point 🤔👍
Super
Nihail and Tal had something in their eyes: a deep dark forest where 2+2=5...

11:14 After Rg1, Nf2++ is a much nicer mate than Qxg1++ 🙂

Edit: okay, that doesn't work, only Qe1 and then to c1 would stop cm.
Why can't you play Rook f2 at 8:45??And Queen e1 at 11:45?
What a game.❤
nihal was running very low on time that is why he was giving those unnecessary checks
Nihal is the new Vasyl Ivanchuk, he almost always has the better position but he most definitely ALWAYS is in time trouble... If I watch too many of Nihal's games I will grow old before my time...

@@zainquadri1206 Cool 👍♟️
Whether Hans Moke Niemann is playing in this tournament ? If not, may we know the reason for the same ?
In your thumbnails yu should have the position on the left side. On the right side some of the position is blocked by the clock.
Its because he is reborn
The repeatation was to gain time. I wached the whole match for 1.5 hrs.
Nihal op
Nihal repeated because he was low on time, so reach 40th move
awesome game
You know what was better than this game??? The way Agadmator explains it like a master director Martin Scorcece typa shit
Nihal can become a Hikaru !
*The Hikaru
Why?
Do you want Nihal with zero World Championship, World Rapid and World Blitz??
@@redeyexxx1841L take
nihal bout to become a streamer
@redeyexxx1841 Hikaru is a millionaire though 😊
Danishvar vs grischuk.. the best
i considered Ke1 right away
Nihal was low on time so he was repeating to gain time.
Indian Morphy
Nihal is really underrated
Bro what dude is literally rated 2688
In fact he is perfectly rated lol
@@rigakent6443 okay sir. Nice joke
@@souravjha206 IMO, he should be 2700+
@@roshanrajkumar7827If he plays more and he is truly 2700+ strength, he will reach that rating
Nice....
My mind does weird things.
Erin is the best wife.. no Laura is the best wife 😂
😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂 I was going to comment that but I found urs😂😂
@@psr4550 😅
Ye forgot to award a Morphy head
I thought of King e1. But recently i do run away with my King so m used to it
12:16 that he completed move 40 😮
What about queen e1 after black rook a1?
Why couldnt white just block with the knight again to reset the situation before the check?
Nihal moved nf2 to gain some time
Before the end of this Fide World Cup, we may have Caruana cross 2800 again.
I was wondering why there isnt any video
14:50 sounds like avengersss ... asemmble ..
A Morphy head would look nice on him 😊
Pragg and gukesh might be stronger or even vidit but they're play is too positional and dare I say boring.. But this Nihal style I like.. Creating complete havoc on the board. Very tactical player just like our dear anand
Did you just call Gukesh boring? 😂😂
Gukesh has some of the most attacking games tf? He always plays very sharp Sicilian lines
Pragg attacks mercilessly and confidently.
Your comment shows you don't watch chess closely to evaluate a player's style.
@@damienmcgrory9462 I did.. Its my opinion some people like positional chess some tactical Guskesh for me is boring

Naaaah
I think nihal should have played knight to F4 at 10:50 . That's a good move
At 12.30, can do Rbb2 isn’t it?
I feel that golden age in Indian Chess are near.
Lol! The last two donaters' names
Beautiful game by nihal, but I am so soo soooo please with that knight Nd bishop manœuvre engine cam up with
Why not bring the Queen back to e1?
12:17 - 12:23 - Lolz!! 🙂
Did they play out the smothered mate?
Is he morphy or dubov or nihal
two times repreat for no reason, just for fun/tourching oppponent. I' d like to do that 😁
Today I learnt that Laura is better than Erin.
Nice haircut bro
Nihal of course didn't torture.

No, Laura is the best wife.
I also choose this guy's wife.

Why does Qe1 not solve the problem?
The photos themselves say who is winning and who is loosing.
