i thought it was interesting how the first game i watched in this tournament the pieces being shuffled around left me feeling very disoriented and the game was hard to follow, but by the end of the tournament it felt more normal and natural, got adjusted to it. thanks to sagar for his excellent commentary and making sense of the gameplay
I love this type of chess with random pieces. There is less theory and more imagination + you get spicy positions that usually dont happen that much in classical chess. Just my opinion.
They're not random. Most people who use the word random use it wrongly. You know 100% of the pieces that will go on the board, ergo you 100% know the outcomes prior to placing the pieces, just like you 100% know that a die will fall on a number between 1-6 before even throwing it. Random would be if a dragon spawned out of a pawn, gave you a billion dollars, kissed you and then farted a rainbow and disappeared in thin air. That would be random.
Nah he's historically struggled actually. Wesley even crushed him in a match once which kind of never happens to Magnus. And the Rapid portion was shaky at best. But it would be very interesting to see this become a mainstay in the chess scene to see if he could maintain this level.
Since chess is supposed to be a war between 2 sides the players should be permitted to arrange their pieces as they wish to at the start rather than follow a common laid down pattern. That is real freestyle.
The players were told not to hang their jackets over the backs of the chairs as this would detract from the overall look of the high class resort. Everyone complied with the request, except Magnus the GOAT.
Lol what? Magnus is the richest player in chess and the price fund here was pocket change to him. He's explicitly stated several times over the years that he would love to play a 960 tournament with classical time format. Stop making dumb claims based on nothing.
Different style called Chess960. Same principles but for the starting position some of the pieces are placed randomly. Look it up it seems pretty cool.
it will be hard after this Freestyle event to go back to classic chess and waiting 20 moves until something happens
Other GMs: the opening favors white in the middle game, but anything can happen.
Magnus: the h pawn wins the end game.

King is going to go boom boom boom boom 😂
Even after winning, he sat with caruana and analyzed. This shows good sportsmanship.
Exactly, not running away to celebrate. Very humble
I think it shows their love for the game. Though Fabi had just lost, he was still willing to analyse.
There's nothing to celebrate for carlsen anymore tbh, he is so used to winning like almost everything. But again yeah kudos to fabi too.

Marvellous win for Magnus🎉
Magnus dominance is even greater at this format, I think.

@@noone-ld7ptwesley did poorly
He won 1 time and every time he got eliminated
Magnus:
1 time winner 2018
1 time 2nd
1 time 3rd
Now wins again
@@noone-ld7ptrapid portion doesnt matter though
The greatest see things the rest of the best do not!
Magnus is an awesome player, he always respects his opponents.. He understand th pain of his opponents who fail in th match against him
I have always clearly sense a fear in the minds of the opponents of Magnus Carlson specially Fabiano Caruana .
Lol fabi is the one who came closest to magnus in last decade. Magnus is just better that's it.
@@rahulkaushik6164Nah Fabi chokes against Carlsen. That's why I was hoping for a Aronian vs Carlsen final
Seems as if at end games Carlsen is playing checkers whilst the rest are playing chess! So easy for him! Amazing!
13:07 now i realise why they analyse just after the game😊
Magnus trying hard to contain his joy.
not really fabio couldn't beat magnus even in his dream his been coming up short his entire life
@@jacksonaction4085 well he's beaten him 6 times in classical which is more than most.
@@noone-ld7ptIt's funny that you did not count how many times magnus beaten fabi in classical, 'cause you can't
@@noone-ld7pt How many times Magnus clapped Fabi in Classical? Yeah try to forget that.
Just a doubt, I am new to this style - is it the same as chess 960? Can anyone kindly tell?
Magnus enjoying vacation and title too!

Sagar, thank you so much
Great commentary
The players were told not to hang their jackets over the backs of the chairs as this would detract from the overall look of the high class resort.
Everyone complied with the request, except Magnus the GOAT.
Very interesting and unpredictable tournament.
Magnus showed a few moments of vulnerability in this tournament. I would be encouraged 👍
Appear weak when you are strong, appear strong when you are weak
When? He only lost 1 game
Rapid portion doesnt matter
I bet Magnus is pretty good at Battleships
sagar, you are the super GM of all chess commentators! 👍🙏
magic magnus the GOAT
What is this set up by the way
The two best players in the world. Both equally great in different ways.
Equally ?
Why did it take so long for the first move? I dont understand
Magnus: Who is next?
I always to watch your chess videos,...
In muted way. 😅😅😅
Bobby would be very happy
fabio been coming up short his entire life against magnus and any tournaments
Why wasnt wesley invited?
He has beaten magnus in free chess
Why y’all asking same questionevery video?
Sir aap game thoda badi screen per dikhao chhoti screen per sahi se nhi dikhta please
Magnus playing better than me so I stopped playing chess.
Goat magnus
Why does the pieces are disposed like that?
What kind of chess pieces arrangement is that bruh ?🤨
Why arrangement of pieces changed
Its chess960
Magnus is goat when Fischer is absent otherwise no ❤
Cope harder
Magnus sits like Bobby Fishers!
The GOAT in chess is Karpov!
GOAT
Your sound system is so scary😡
at 14:33 see the Magnus face... seems to say: how disgusting this way of playing is, if they didn't pay us well I wouldn't play it even under torture.

He just doesn't care after winning
Summertime sadness
32 pawn vs all pieces who?
It is unreasonable to claim a GOAT is a live at present. Reductive western idiocy.
Looks like an AI generated hate comment. It's not coherent at all
@@TurdBoi666 Not coherent? xD "all times" includes ... THE FUTURE ... dimwit.
@@TurdBoi666 _"It's not coherent at all"_
xD said a channel called "Turdboi"
Caruana lost this game on move 1 not castling
It was an opportunity for Fabiano to get free mentoring?
❤
Sometimes sagar cant interpret the moves in freestyle
Magnus Carlsen = Lionel Messi
Hikaru Nakamura = Cristiano Ronaldo
I agreed. 1000%
wtf is this is this still a chess?
Different style called Chess960. Same principles but for the starting position some of the pieces are placed randomly. Look it up it seems pretty cool.
Пиво на столах... не уснёшь здесь?😅😅😅😅 и ссать бегают
Oh i thought Carlsen is a man but he is a goat??
Can an animal play chess now???;😢😢😢
So funny bro you got the whole squad laughing 😐😐😐😐😐😐
1st
U can listen the bullshit freestyle words hy speaker of this channel😂
You're overly enthusiastic, chill.
Sagar the benevolent Deva of chess. 🙏🏞️🌬️
