    watching Magnus flip the switch at the end from playing strategically for the endgame advantage to mating within a few moves -- absolute killer instinct. I'm by no means a good chess player, but even still my brain struggles to hold the ability to calculate multiple win conditions like that at the same time. we are so lucky to live at a time where all time greats can play and provide commentary in real time for the whole world to see.

    I like Magnus because he is a genuinely nice guy. He doesn't seem like someone who wins and gloats over the other players. I think it would be kewl to just have a beer with Magnus. He seems like just an average guy that is actually a true genius.

    I love watching along thinking of what move I would make, and then when he does something like move a pawn forward one square i'm like "OH that's what I would have done we're like the same caliber of player"
