Since the beginning of the match, Kramnik and Nepo have been hating on an 18 year old and someone who's been suffering from depression for more than a year. They act like they have never made any mistakes in a world championship. And Nepo was so bad that he made Carlsen leave the World championship. And then proceeded to lose to the same guy he's hating on.
How ironic is it that Take Take Take is meant to make chess game simple to understand and Magnus also explains everything in low level detail but nobody is showing move on the board!
Gotta say TTT content team is slacking. When Magnus is talking lines at the start - You MUST show those lines. Otherwise normies will not feel very invested. Guys… get this done for every piece of analysis by the GOAt!
@@zenmaster1958 Perhaps reading comprehension is something you should get better at. The point of TTT is to popularise the game and make it more palatable for normies. Not doing what I suggested doesn't achieve that.
The amount of Chad energy Magnus radiates with his trash audio and random locations is frightening. He doesnt even remotely care how he comes off in HIS OWN FORMAT.
Please Magnus, use a proper headset with a real mic for these recaps. It severely distracts from what you're saying when there is an abundance of background noise, feedback, and lapses in audio.
when he said after a3 all he did was calculaye nonsence lines for 38 minutes was really frustrating and kiinda harsh on himself there , so yeah it felt a bit bad but then again chess is a brutal sport
Same. As a human we feel bad for Ding and Kudos to him for showing up and battling this tense battle along with his mental struggle. He'll always remain a champion irrespective of the result of the match.
Magnus is using that headphone plug.. but it seems nobody has told him to change a better headphone or he does not want to use heavy headphone and continue to use ear plugs may be.. since he is travelling .. he does not have it or does not want to change it.. but I agree, whenever Magnus uses that white ear plug .. sound is pathetic! Magnus are you listening our sound concern... if you are on any analysis.. please use proper headphones... a humble request.
Nah I'm sorry but the audio issues make this video almost unwatchable. How is Magnus not even making the bare minimum effort, its actually disrespectful. A strong moderator would have told Magnus to go find a quiet room but I guess noone tells Magnus no
@@ethanguo4219Magnus can analyze this on the fly, and he was analyzing while watching he should take more care, this is not a random interview, it’s for his new app, put a tiny bit more effort in
I mean it’s astonishing that he is even doing the bare minimum . Magnus is kind of a weird guy . This kind of stuff is what i expect from him . He doesn’t take things seriously including himself .
Broooooooo give Levy the MOUSE! It’s sooooo frustrating when Magnus (the greatest player ever) is giving his thoughts and moves and the pieces aren’t moving! Especially in this recap where Magnus is explaining a known gambit but it’s not being shown on the board :/
Oooor you do what people usually do in chess, called calculating the lines and if he's too quick for you to visualize them, maybe just pause the video for a second and then continue? Actually improves your chess quite a lot if you do that rather than always playing out the move when you calculate a line BEFORE you calculated until the end. Same with puzzles where people play the first move without knowing how to continue
Interviewer: So Magnus, thousands of people across the globe want to hear your opinion. What did you think about the game? Magnus: I didn't really watch it 💀💀
As a 2000+ rated player, I find it challenging to keep up with the variations Magnus is discussing without a board. While I can visually follow the ideas, it's difficult to fully grasp the nuances of the variations without being able to see them on a chessboard. It would be incredibly helpful if the board were used more effectively to explain the variations
@13:10, Levy said that Gukesh thought that he was better, but in reality he said that he realized that he had messed up big time. Hence the long think.
I listened Levy didn't say that Gukesh thought the position after he made the d3 move was better for him. What he actually said was that before playing d3 he was trying to remember his prep of "what''s my plan to be better", couldn't remember it and played d3.
Magnus’s audio is a such an L 😅 on one hand I’m super excited to hear these people talk about this game, on the other I want to throw my phone through a window because of the awful noises
love the recaps overall but the fact they they can't make magnus sit in a quiet place with a microphone for content on his own app is bizarre. the audio and flashing lights are so distracting
As an Indian, I did not feel happy when Gukesh won, but felt saddens when I saw Ding Liren's Broken Face🥺 why? please anyone tell me, is it bcs Ding Liren is Too innocent.
Het TakeTakeTake team, Been really enjoying these recaps. It'd be great if you could add a chessboard and show what Magnus/Levy are refering to - for instance when Magnus referred to the Benko gambit - many players like myself are unable to follow them without a chessboard.
This isn't a money issue. Magnus clearly just doesn't care about this enough to inconvenience himself slightly by bringing a laptop and some basic audio equipment on his trip. Either that or the TTT team is too scared to call him out on it cos he's the boss. Dude's arguably the GOAT and doesn't want to be told what to do. Feels like he hates doing these and isn't afraid of showing it (even though it's his platform).
Levi is a liar, Gukesh didn't say he spend so much time because he was better, he talked about the prep but misplayed the moves here and landed in trouble. Poor Levi
This was the first of these recap videos that I didn’t watch fully. The audio/background noise was too distracting to focus that I had to stop listening a few minutes into it. Bummer because this chess game had so much going on that I was so looking forward to hearing Magnus and Levy talk through it
Why does levy always look like hes being held at gunpoint? Magnus and Kaja are so enthusiastic yet Levy looks like hes not enjoying himself and brings everything down everytime he starts talking. Kaja: "Did you enjoy today's awesome game?!" Levy: "This shows the death of mainstream classical chess." Dude...
@@rhydderc127 Yeah, it seems like Levy is struggling with the audio. Magnus is using the earbuds picking up all the background noise and has had unreliable wifi in past recaps.
Editing is generally lazy. Apart from the obvious sound issues at least the editor could mute magnus voice when he is not talking, also show the moves when they are talking about a line.
Everyday Gotham whines that classical chess will never be TV material… TV is dead, everything is now streamed in internet, chess is well suited to this media.
Massive improvement :-) I can already feel better chemistry between the three of you and Kaja you’re clearly finding a flow with this insanely difficult format. Now we just need to get Magnus a decent mic and it’ll be perfect. Keep up the amazing work 😄
because retention plummets as soon as that happens because eventhough people are amateurs, the reason they didn't just abandon chess completely is because they actually tried it and realised that it's actually difficult and realise that they need to take it seriously and can't just improve by coping so nonsense bits like what's the best piece is just offputting
Gukesh actually was still in his prep but he rushed into d3 and mixed it up with Nc6 and d3 , but Ding played Qc7 and Gukesh still played d3. He later realizes it. And when he realizes his position was not good and that his prep lost his advantage, then he had to collect himself by going into lounge for 6 whole minutes. He looked like he washed his face 100 times when he came back. This is all my conjecture but he kind of alluded to in his press conference as well. Also, that knight a1 proved vital in the end.

Creating an app and a TH-cam channel isn’t enough. It’s a shame to see the audio quality . If you are busy then better don’t do an analysis on the game.
I get that Magnus is in high demand, and I appreciate the "free" content, but please in the long run can we do better than him on his airpods in random places and no board help visualization when discussing alternate lines?
Guys, we are looking forward to these videos. These are 40 plus minutes videos that people are watching through. Making the audio to be of basic acceptable quality is just respecting your audience.
It’s interesting to see magnus explaining the games, and i get why you want levy in this recaps. But it would be better if magnus used better microphone and a quiet environment as levy
To add onto Levy's comment about Ding's paradoxical attitude: there is a line in this old Leonard Cohen song which goes something like "reaching for the sky just to surrender" and it perfectly sums up Ding's state of mind. I feel bad for him.
You really need to include an analysis board that Magnus and Levy can use to show the alternative moves/lines that they are talking about. It would help everyone one following the great commentary much better.
Why is this so unprofessional? The sound is horrible. Magnus cannot be bothered to even have a laptop with him at whatever outing he is at. The board only shows half the analysis the guys do. I'd be ashamed to release something like that. Poor Levy, who agreed to participate in this shit show.

Guys, we are looking forward to these videos. These are 40 plus minutes videos that people are watching through. Making the audio to be of basic acceptable quality is just respecting your audience.
I'm really enjoying the recaps, but please get the man a proper mic!
It’s interesting to see magnus explaining the games, and i get why you want levy in this recaps. But it would be better if magnus used better microphone and a quiet environment as levy
great now I'm going to subconciously use the word "baffling" 10 times more often today than I normally do
Besides the audio issue, showing the actual moves of what they are talking about would be greatly appreciated.
Hope ding come back stronger
But rooting for gurkesh as an Indian
@@prathambhagat2297 ding will collapse
Thank you. I very much enjoying these recaps
Does magnus has 64 rooms in his home 😮😮 every time he comes up wid new loc new decor how????
He is at some hotel i guess
He is currently travelling
6:43 Just listening to him shows why hes the goat
Completely out of context but magnus sounds a lot like Kevin de bruyne in this video 😅😂
I think you mean completely off topic… not out of context
Well yeah..🤷♂️
To add onto Levy's comment about Ding's paradoxical attitude: there is a line in this old Leonard Cohen song which goes something like "reaching for the sky just to surrender" and it perfectly sums up Ding's state of mind. I feel bad for him.
Levy or Magnus need to have control of the board so they can put the moves they are discussing up.
You really need to include an analysis board that Magnus and Levy can use to show the alternative moves/lines that they are talking about. It would help everyone one following the great commentary much better.
Why is this so unprofessional? The sound is horrible. Magnus cannot be bothered to even have a laptop with him at whatever outing he is at. The board only shows half the analysis the guys do. I'd be ashamed to release something like that. Poor Levy, who agreed to participate in this shit show.
No one cares, the quality of his analysis is better than most analysis 🤷🏼♂️
Even in a potato it is good to hear Magnus's thoughts
@@andrejosue98yeah we better have magnus for example writting with doctor like caligrafy and you guys would still say its the best xd
give DIng ice creams, he is missing Ice Creams, supporting Guki and DIng is such a hice and humble guy, hope he get well mentally soon
video is great... audio is messedup!
Can the audio not be post-processed?
I am Indian and rooting for Gukesh. A world championship will be a wonderful accomplishment for India once again
Collectives do not accomplish anything. Ever.
@@arightscepter I believe that different cultures and communities have unique ways of organizing and collaborating, and it is this diversity that strengthens our collective efforts. This is precisely why the two biggest civilizations are competing for world championships, while you're wherever you are!
@@Satire-v1c This isn't a cultural/civilization comparison comment, it's a nationalistic one.
It's still true that... and this kid could stand to learn from this... Individuals takes actions and collectives never do. They can not accomplish anything while not being able to take any actions.
India is an idea and claiming its a source of "national pride" isn't correct. I have this strange idea I can teach someone something with my interactions with them. Maybe since you spoke of where I am means you could use some too? You said civilizations are competing. This is a false claim. I didn't need "in-correcting."
@@arightscepter We can see how far your individualistic action have taken you. Saw a couple of videos on your individual smack downs on your channel with 3 views, you achieved a lot man, congrats !
And no need to respond, just put the fries in the bag, jack.
@@arightscepter hey uncle.. Ur dads just won 🤣🤣
Magnus seems to be hammered.
@magnus please consider buying small wireless mike for making video while travelling
Where is the take take take recap on the best game so far?
Ding: Thinks for 30 odd minutes. Which are effectively wasted.
Magnus: You can tell in 1 second. 🗿🗿
Honestly magnuses audio makes this unwatchable and I’ve otherwise loved all the taketaketake recaps. A plug in lapel mic is cheap and easy to make the audio quality at least decent. If he’s on mobile, even plug in earphones have a great mic on them. It’s not that hard to
The audio is horrific, couldn't watch it until the end. And no move shown on the board for a recap ! Very surprising that the production of these recaps is not taken more seriously if they want this Take Take Take to become something.
Asking lion about who will be king ===tiger#cheetah\ kudos for holding back magnus🥷🥷🥷
I don't know if others can hear some overlapping audio, if yes please edit properly before publishing. If not all good
Love the candor from Magnus.
