Magnus participates = Magnus wins.
Is this even a question atp? Everyone should fight for the 2nd place.
Not titled Tuesday
David Howell such a classy presenter.
oooumph
Seriously. And his passion and childlike giddiness is palpable and refreshing. Robert and Danya are still my favorite duo, but David is a close second. And anyone besides Tania and Canty.
I think Tania can be great paired with the right co-presenter. Tania and Leko are enjoyable- or would you disagree? I have never seen Canty!@@kmart1303
@@kmart1303 truth be told
robert speaks like a robot.
@@kmart1303 Why not Tania?
Magnus really is him huh
Whoever said Alireza is playing the sleeping Magnus bot is a Genius!
damm magnus again with his plot armor seriously developers should nerf his luck status
Wouldn't help because it's his skill status that is in effect.
Luck?!!! You must be paranoid
you know what they say, the best players are the most lucky for some reason...
For real, the character roster is massively imbalanced. Maybe they will even things out in the 2025 update.
It's always: "XY is Magnus's kryptonite" but Magnus wins in the end.

hans 'stockfish' neiman@@JoyrajGhosh
What's XY
@@JoyrajGhosh never seen him sleeping with his 17 world Championship awards☹️
“Kryptonite is Superman’s kryptonite” but Superman wins in the end.
Fun Fact, for the final of this online chess tournament, the finalists flew to a hotel in northern germany, to both sit in their respective hotel rooms, to play an online tournament against each other...
Howell was Magnus training partner for the 960 event coming up. Just for your info. Hence the "in-joke" in magnus interview 😊
2 person commentary flows better than 3.
Excellent commentary, please keep GM David Howell and GM Robert Hess around. They made very high level chess fun and understandable for weaker players like myself. Those two are an awesome team.
The first game by Alireza was engine level, absolutely incredible. Magnus came back stronger next round, he is the goat after all
David’s commentary is great as usual, but he must sort out his sound, sounds like he is speaking from his bathroom. Easy to fix!
I agree with you, it takes away nothing from David, he's an AMAZING commentator, truly, but it is what it is, his sound is bad
Great games and great commentary! Love watching the whole thing!
Two of my favorite chess commentators! Enjoyable to watch :)
Uma coisa é certa e a cada entrevista de magnus sobre alireza se confirma: ele realmente gosta muito e respeita o xadrez de alireza. Não é por acaso que ele falou anteriormente em um podcast que ele acha alireza o mais prodígio de todos esses jogadores mais novos, incluindo os indianos, nordibek, etc.
yes everytime since 2018-2019 I think
Great match, great commentary! Well played both finalists.
What amazing play! I think this match does great credit to both players. No doubt Magnus will become less powerful over time and others will become stronger ... a lot like human beings :-) So much the better for the fans and the game, and no fault to the players.
Magnus is just sarting, the last decade was a warm up😂
Anyone know the song at the very beginning of this video?
2:30:37 I actually saw the rook sacrifice and it was my first choice, Magnus did it and the commentors looked shocked. I'm so proud of myself :)
Can we please just acknowledge how hilarious all these bits are during commercial breaks xDD These chess guys have some hilarious personalities
Nice to see Magnus sporting the Jannik Sinner hairstyle. Andiamo carotes!!
They are high level.of intensity moves and we try to reached it..its so Hard..😊
let's go he won again , who would have thought
For me I just like a double round robin with the 1-2 finishers playing an 8 game final over two days (two 4 game sets). If they keep the current format, would be best to make the losers bracket also 4 game matches. Just my two-cents.
I did not understand: Alireza reached 2.5 points first. And Magnus only 1.5.
Why did magnus win?
Can someone explain me?😅
The only logic I found is if you do the sum of both sets, he wins 3.5-2.5
Since , magnus didn't lost to anyone ( in the group stage , semi final and winners final ) he got an extra chance by grand final reset and whoever wins in reset wins the tournament
Jesus... they explain it so many times over the broadcast. It's a double elimination bracket. Alireza lost a set earlier during the tournament, so was in losers bracket, and Magnus hadn't lost a game and was thus in winners. Alireza had to win a set to 'reset' the bracket, take them both into the losers bracket and from there it was winner take all. And Magnus took. It's like every player has one spare life over the tournament, and Alireza used his before the Grand Final. You could literally have just googled this though, it's not hard.
Great commentry guys!!! 🎉😎👍
Commentary top notch👌👌👌
You win more points in whole tournament, more points in the final, and end up coming second. Only in chess. (I still love it though).
Thank goodness he came from the upper bracket
What do you mean? The format is double elimination, which effectively means that every player gets two chances. It wouldn't make sense for everyone except the upper bracket player to get two chances. In this case, it's only fair that Magnus gets a second chance as well, which he used and wins.
@@ksham.Lil bro when did he criticize the format ? What r u waffling about teaching us the format and what double elim is 😂
@@ksham. the player from the loser bracket had two games more and in the finals he's forced to win two rounds, the second round being shorter than the first.
@@ksham. Thanks captain obvious. We didn't know that 😮
@@aliyaansafi2601 I mean the way he phrased it may imply that he thinks Magnus is just lucky to be in the upper bracket.
Starts at 25:28
So no one is gonna talk about how much Magnus blinks? It’s like bro’s giving us a Morse code message
Magnus is grand like a grindmaster.
these rhymes are always keeping me interested 😂
why do they do a 'reset'?
Can someone please explain this format. Ali won the first set 2.5 to 1.5. Then Magnus won the second set 2-0. Why wasn't the second set also four games?
Loser round is consist of best 1.5
It's always gonna be him, Magnus Carlsen
How did he win? if 1st match lost 2.5 -1.5 and second match 2.0-0.0🤔🤔🤔
I think its because Magnus came from the top bracket/winners final
Goat is. Still Goating
Where is the interview between presenter GM R. Hess and GM Carlsen at the end of the tournament. The chess community at its tipping point. Doing an interview with GM Firouzja only. GM Hess, I don't understand. 🙄🤔
King Magnus!! Long Live the King!
Hello Grandmasters.David Howell.Robert Hess..😊. kumusta?
Hairstyle count of chess players:
Hikaru : 1 or 2
Wesley: definitely 1
Nepo : 2 or 3
Alireza: 1
Fabi : 1
Anish: 1
Mvl : 1
Grischuk: 2
Levon : 1
Magnus : thousands 😂
David gotta get a new mic or put some pillows around his walls or something
Someone explain how Ali Reza beat Magnus 2.5 to 1.5 then there was a reset? Confused
Format is winners and losers bracket. Magnus came from winners (not lost until now) while Alireza came from losers. So after the final, Magnus has a «second life» in the grand finals
The format is double elimination, which means that every player gets two chances. Magnus hasn't lost; Alireza has lost so he had to go through the Loser's bracket. It wouldn't make sense for everyone except the Winner's bracket player to get two chances. In this case, it's only fair that Magnus gets a second chance as well, which he used and wins.
Magnus the real Grind Master 🎉
Chess is an epic battle of minds, and in the end there is one loser and then there is magnus carlsen.
This guy is unbelievable
Why did they give Alireza black first in both matches. Wasn’t it unfair?
Why would we doubt the goat?
Why the hell is there some “reset” in the final match???
In some double-elimination formats, the best result that a player in the loser bracket can get is 3rd place. In formats like this one, instead they often require the player coming from the bottom side of the bracket to win twice against the undefeated player in order to win the championship. The logic is basically that the first win gives both players the same number of losses so they play another set to break the tie.
it's because it's a double elimination setup, meaning you have to lose 2 sets to get kicked out of the tournament. magnus had not lost a set the entire tourney, but alireza had lost a set before this match. alireza was coming from the losers bracket to the grand finals, whereas magnus was coming from the winners bracket. so for magnus to be eliminated he would need to lose 2 sets.
@@brandog130 thanks!
Robert, you should smile more often - you have a wonderful smile :)
Can we just appreciate the greatest endgame playet of all time? Magnus was so deadlost but he created serious practical chances and outplayed Alireza!!
Commentators got it wrong many times.
People complaining that "must win twice is stupid" is so dumb and ignorant. Like being in the winners bracket was granted or something, its a hard earned privilege and everyone had equal chance to get it also..
20 years old Firozja would have been better chess player as 20 years old Carlson 😊
I don't think so, Magnus surpassed 2800 at 18 and never went below it since. Magnus became #1 Rated chess player by 18 and has remained so ever since. Also Magnus achieved these feats by beating the very best GM's and top rated players in the World, While Firouzja barely went over 2800 and then lost his rank shortly after and he didn't do it against the top GM's in the world but in some Iranian tournament
Alpha-Reza
Did Magnus again lose some ELO points for winning this ? t_t
What happened to Magnus's hair?
Why do a first set if it doesn't count? What's the point?
Somebody has to come from the upper bracket, having won all games prior, not having to use the lower bracket or "second chance" to stay in the tournament. Doing so is rewarded by having the leeway of an additional set, given they lose the first. It acts as that "second chance" that everybody else already used by getting knocked down to the lower bracket. Hope that makes sense.
Magnus came from the upper bracket (winner side, means never lose a match before GF in the tournament), while Alireza came from the lower bracket (loser side, means he lost a match before the GF)
Where was Tania today?
She was travelling to Germany as she's a commentator for Freestyle Goat chess challenge which is starting from tomorrow.
Carlsen betting on Ian or Naka in candidates
Why was it reset
Because magnus is twice to beat cause he is in the top bracket
Alireza was in the losers bracket, Magnus in the winners, so he had to win twice. Same if Alireza was in winners bracket and Magnus in the losers bracket.
Because the upperbracket winner never lost. So he getsba chance while the rest lost once
Kryptonite?
Magnus has 4-0 classical over firo and huge lead in rapid blitz
somehow its true
Yes, a lot of players are magnus's kryptonite (especially, the indian prodigies and Firouzja) until they are not 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
It was always gonna be magnus
Goat has won
Ali Rıza'nın piyon oyunu iyi..
kryptonite mera L..
So much dumb in chat;
Alireza lost in first round so if it was not for reset alireza would be eliminated in first round
Alireza fan’s definitely not a chess fans, they didn’t even understand the format and what double elimination means
I can play the guitar better than Magnus...
That wouldn't be hard
Really bad moves for Alireza in the last one. He got too emotional and missed even the most obvious ones...
Hi 🎉
this"must win twice" rule is total BS
No, it's not. Firouzja was in the lovers bracket. That means he lost in the main and had a second chance. Magnus had not lost and still had his second chance in the final. Had any other player made it to the winners' final, they would have had the second chance as well.
Keep crying Alireza wasn't instructed to lose earlier and go in the losers bracket if he was so good he should've been in the upper bracket instead of magnus
Why does Magnus blink so much?!?
Magnus coping hard with that hairline. He needs to cut it.
Spoiler protect comment
🐐🐐🐐
Alireza's interview was weird to say the least
I don’t understand why they interviewed him in the first place. Of course he would not be up for it after losing such a hard match
I like him, he’s just quiet and thinks a lot
All I'm seeing is comments like "Alireza was better!", "why the reset?" (the format has always been like this but they're conveniently complaining just now), just acknowledge Magnus and his greatness👑
(Reza is a great player but he still needs to improve, props to him tho cause he brought a great fight)
You were ahead 2.5-1.5 and still lost
Poor alireza lmao imagine having to beat magnus 4 times to win! Almost impossible. Thankfully magnus had a lifeline from the upper brackets.
@@LeafyPeachthankfully? You're saying that as if magnus was specifically granted that..
@@shashankprashar6604 I'm just saying it's good for Magnus. 🤔
@@LeafyPeach yep it is I just Meant a regular assumption from your last reply😂
@@shashankprashar6604 Your replies make no sense.
Carlsen is off his game. And wins the tournament anyway.
was Magnus drunk?
Hmm :) Ya! O kadar çemkirdin benim missler gibi London sistemi açılışıma amaa! Kazandı işte çocuk sonunda nabeer?! Allah'ın düdük makarnası senii! :)
Magnus cheating
no americans = dont care
We saw the most ridiculous formula in the Grand Final stage.. Who really designs these cases?!.. in all competitions in all different disciplines. The winner of the winners section must be able to defeat the winner of the losers section in order to win the final and no extra points should be given to him in advance!
From what I've seen in video games, the winner of the loser's bracket has to win twice in the final.
this is very standard format, otherwise there is no bonus for being in winners side
loser bracket already got 2nd life as they lost in the first place.
so obviously winners bracket will have advantage as they didn't lost once.🙃
you should see this fact like everyone has 2 lifes. alireza lost 1 life throughout the tournament losing to fedeser. so he wasn t eliminated but just lost 1 life. magnus has never lost so he had 2 lifes intact.
The Most ridiculous comment I've seen today
Magnus won but Alireza was the better player.
Noap
Dude, If there's someone who might be better than magnus that guy retired 19yrs ago
Nope, if he is better he would won
Terrible sound quality from especially David Howell. What is he doing with that 10$ earphones?
Anyway, R. Hess is the only worth listening to.
Oh come on, David is great.
He always says comments the obvious. The deep insight - well, show me - when did he remark a deep insight on a position?@@mariyangeorgiev7675
Yes I think the ultimate commentary trio is hess, danya and fabi, with rensch in background to provide the entertainment.
Without a doubt, Alireza was the best player of this tournament..
I disagree
Then y he lost?
what are you talking? LOL
The bit when he lost 2-0 was Magnus was his best performance 🤦🏻♂️
Alireza played on his normal high level. Magnus wasnt in his best shape. But he still won
David is always so gay for magnus...lol
admiration = gay ... nice one
@@hanannyg literally the goat and this man really called David gay for admiring him. 💀
Well he lives in Norway and has written a book with Magnus, and is his Fisher 960 training partner, so no surprise
