Tied with Magnus on the first place, playing excellent chess in the last few days, I think this was really a bold move to go all out against Magnus with the black pieces. He could have played a safe line and maybe played for a draw and then could have tried to beat others while tied with Magnus for the top spot. But this is what makes him diffrent. Amazing play as always by Magnus but kudos to Mamedyarov for not settling and playing safe.
@@randymctavish3728 If shakhriyar wanted a draw i think it would have been closer. These guys are pretty good at dealing with and overcoming unforeseen consequences. There are lines which are just safer.
I am a noob so don't take my word for it but I think magnus believes the b5 pawn is weak. The white diagnol the fianchettoed bishop controlled was extremely strong making the the knight weak. And given that magnus doubled up on the A file, the Queen defending the knight was weak as well. You probably have to realise all of that and then play the exact move order to make sure you are attacking all of these weaknesses, that is what makes this insane because he defended the d4 pawn before starting this sequence. And someone like me only realises that this is an attack after all is said and done.

Many of mameds moves were not the absolute best, but required the absolute best counterplay (only one winning move each time, for like 5 moves in a row) from magnus to keep his winning chances. I think vs any other player, mamed would have easily drawn the game, which makes this even more impressive.

As mentioned in the video, the grandmasters in the live commentary could not believe this position was so dominant. Funnily enough, 2 moves after pawn to b3, it dawned upon them that black was in a positional bind. What a karpovian masterpiece from magnus.
Much compliments for Mamedyaro though for playing brave and wanting to go for the win! Very awesome! Congratz to Magnus as well ofcourse for this masterpiece!
A stunningly precise move. And from there on Magnus played on a level I have never seen before. I followed the game on Norwegian tv, and the commentators were just baffled.

Well,guess what, they really are all of them top engine moves. I was never again so scared in my life 😬😬😬

@@Figgy20000 i completely agree,that was insane,and it is such a pity that most probably this game will be forgotten soon because there wasn't any spectacular sacrifice or combination. But in fact moves like Qd1 are as great as any sacrifice
Wow another masterpiece from the goat! Notice how Magnus moved his light square bishop only once but still it was doing so much slicing up the board the whole game.
I'm not a really strong chess player, nor do I have a vast knowledge of the game and its history, but it really seems like Magnus is on another level than anybody else in History. I mean, I know some guys like Morphy, Fischer, Tal, etc... were way above all their peers at the time, but Magnus manages to do that in the computer area, in classical time format. Because to me, it feels like this legendary players could always use tricks to gain an edge early on, by complicating the game, but nowadays you have to get in these incredibly drawish positions, that both players have prepared all the way to move 10-15, and from there, gain an advantage on your opponent. Anyway, to me he's the best chess player in History, and I get why he's starting to get bored with classical chess.
He's not bored with classical chess. He just thinks the amount of time to prepare for WCC is not worth the effort considering he already has 5 championships. He literally told he will still play chess professionally even if he decides not to play wcc. As for magnus being the goat, he probably will be in a few years no debate.
Even in the computer era elite players make all kinds of mistakes - including the great Magnus. There is no comparison with players of the past like Morphy, Capablanca, Fischer, and Kasparov. When Magnus starts steamrolling his opponents like the players I listed then he can be considered the GOAT. In the meantime, Magnus is the best we got and that's it.
@@MrSupernova111 those players in those times didnt have a supercomputer. One match of carlsen vs nepo literally had the most accurate match ever. Sorry to burst your bubble but super gm's today wont be dominated as hard as you think by those people.
@Ze TheGame . The GOAT distinction goes to the most dominant. Its not Carlsen - not by a landslide. Also, the fact that you think that someone like Morphy, Capablanca or Fischer couldn't be just as dominant today, with the same resources as today's players, is laughable. This is why we compare dominance - otherwise the latest generation is by default always the GOAT which is stupid.
@Ze TheGame . Chessmetrics recently concluded that Capablanca was either the most accurate or second most accurate player in the history of chess. But feel free to continue making a mockery of yourself.
We are witnessing the most all around chess player of all time !! Magnus can defend like Petrosian when necessary ,can attack like Morphy when he needs to and most of the time can take advantage of every detail on the board,!! What an engine he is!!
Mamedyarov isn't the last person who has beaten Carlsen in classical. These are the losses after game with Shakhriyar (Jul 31st 2018, Biel): Duda (Oct 10th 2020, Norway Chess), Aronian (Oct 16th 2020, Norway Chess), Esipenko (Jan 24th 2021, Tata Steel), Karjakin (Sep 12th 2021, Norway Chess).
This is one of those games that really humbles me. Never would have thought it was okay to give up that exchange. Never in a million years would have thought it was okay to allow that pass pawn. Never would have thought to reroute the knight to pressure d4.
Carlsen is an absolute genius. He is simply unplayable. He finds a solution for every situation. Its a plessure to watch. Respect to Mamedyarov for atleast trying to beat Magnus. I love his agressive mindset.
I think this is my favourite Agadmator video and I’ve seen over 100. The analysis is super crisp; all the interesting variations were explored yet it is succinct and to the point. This game was incredible - Magnus on this form is unplayable.
i just wonder how strong will our next chess king be if magnus really gives up the throne voluntarily.. there'll be a huge power vacancy.. i can't be the only one who feels this way right?
If Carlsen wouldn´t compete EVERYBODY who wins would be just-the-champion-bc-Carlsen-didn´t compete and never ever the Real No.1...after Kasparow, there was a 13-year period were nobody was the real only-Champion.
Can't blame him though. It keeps him from playing as much as he wants, and it isn't enjoyable nor extraordinarily profitable. He still plans to play and keep world #1.
@Shawn Mendenall bro he got over $2 million for winning the last WCC. How is that not extraordinarily profitable? Not to mention all the money he gets from sponsorships and endorsements by bein WCC
Agadmator 2021: Find the only winning move, while I give you a couple of seconds Agadmator 2022: Find the continuation of inhuman supercomputer moves while I give you a couple of seconds
Shakhriyar is a player I have a ton of respect for, on and off chess; & MC is, well, MC. Thanks Agadmator for explaining a game by two guys who are brave enough to try to win such battle, and not just not to lose. A Masterclass.
I cannot find a metaphor to compare this game to anything else, I will allude to this game after twenty years as Magnus-Mamedyarov, and talk about how he won, with Qd1 and b3. And this is probably the best explanation that Agad has ever provided. This is simply beautiful.
the title should be Magnus (Supercomputer) vs Mamedyarov (Balls of Steel).. dis game was awesome, definitely a fan of mamed now.. wonderful commentary.. thanks Agad
Seems Magnus got some use for his match prep vs Nepo. That kind of exchange sac looks like something Nepo could have gone for... That b3-idea is spaceman chess - a well defended passed pawn on c3 is usually the kind of compensation for the exchange Black is only dreaming about and here it was somehow winning for White! :O
"The reason this keeps happening -- Magnus crushes Nepo, Magnus mops the floor with Mamedyarov -- is because he does not show his best play except when he knows he really needs it. So even though he is world champion, his opponents are actually underestimating him." - Paul Deck, youtube profile interesting comment, use it for your quote next time
Who dares wins ... maybe not all the time, but I love that bold attitude that Shak brings to the table. Eff the draw! I'm coming to beat you Magnus, and you better play super computer moves or you are gonna lose.
I think it was Karjakin who last defeated magnus in classical format.. It was Shakhiyar who defeated magnus before magnus amazing unbeaten run which was ended by Duda...
Because such non-human moves, it could be good idea to introduce mandatory detailed check of non organic objects inside the player's body. With today technology it is so easy to hide completely passive receiver with small antenna that responds with subtle vibration which transfers information about the strongest next move.
This the best games played in the tournament and Agad, you made it look more beautiful. They should just give you the honorary grandmaster title for making chess popular and more enjoyable.
I just want to say Qc1 is definitely a strange sideline response. As a Catalan player, taking the bishop after a5 is definitely a mistake, not just fine for black. Also, a3 is the most common move, and the idea is to follow up with b3, intending to recapture the pawn on b3 with the Queen. The knight is misplaced on b3 and wants to keep watch over e4 in the event that playing e4 is a profitable idea, also the Queen will often move down to b2 in these lines. I don't like Qc1 is what I'm trying to say.
Really here to say - Hope you have an excellent rest of the day !

@@saideepk7123 So you only have to have not been beaten in the last month to be unbeatable?
@@cptnoremac only in rapid
Carlsen is an absolute genius. He is simply unplayable. He finds a solution for every situation. Its a plessure to watch. Respect to Mamedyarov for atleast trying to beat Magnus. I love his agressive mindset.
he just knows any line before game as he learn at home for hours
@@kontobiol3020 every grandmaster does. He is a naturel talent. Its like he feels what he has to play.
@@mitho947 Man you relly don t understand, believe me i know that he doesn t play over tha board, Marme did and lost
Magnus is just a secret project by Stockfish that integrated chess playing supercomputers into an android body to take over the chess world
No stockfish would crush magnus
I think this is my favourite Agadmator video and I’ve seen over 100.
The analysis is super crisp; all the interesting variations were explored yet it is succinct and to the point.
This game was incredible - Magnus on this form is unplayable.
10:40 "the bishop is a pawn basically" lol why do i find this so funny? 😂😂😂
Actually, Duda and Esipenko beat magnus after Mamedyarov did it in Riga 2018
Engine confirmed that they knows how to play chess like world champion magnus! Intresting stuff! 😀
This game was my favorite so far in this tournament. So beutiful.
That's nothing. I once saw Magnus play 15 moves in a row that was the engine top choice in one of the Lichess bullet arenas! 😎
Someone with the balls to actually play against Magnus, more Shak games please!
Magnus makes the Catalan look like a forced win! Reuben Fine I think said The Catalan is the most subtle of all openings.
i just wonder how strong will our next chess king be if magnus really gives up the throne voluntarily.. there'll be a huge power vacancy.. i can't be the only one who feels this way right?
Don't worry, just watch
If Carlsen wouldn´t compete EVERYBODY who wins would be just-the-champion-bc-Carlsen-didn´t compete and never ever the Real No.1...after Kasparow, there was a 13-year period were nobody was the real only-Champion.
Can't blame him though. It keeps him from playing as much as he wants, and it isn't enjoyable nor extraordinarily profitable. He still plans to play and keep world #1.
I hope he doesn’t give it up. Magnus is a once in a multi generation talent.
@Shawn Mendenall bro he got over $2 million for winning the last WCC. How is that not extraordinarily profitable? Not to mention all the money he gets from sponsorships and endorsements by bein WCC
Magnus = Supercomputer
Agadmator = Flash
You literally analysed the game so fast!!
Incredible, you dont even know that you're losing
Suddenly, you realize you're hopeless
Incredible magnus
That's what Hikaru said couple of years ago 🤣🤣
I think the actual line from John cena is
“Life is a series of opportunities. You’ll yield what the Chinese government gives”
The 'Politically Aware' variation.
*Zong Xina
At least he apologized for being insensitive to the CCP.
Agadmator 2021: Find the only winning move, while I give you a couple of seconds
Agadmator 2022: Find the continuation of inhuman supercomputer moves while I give you a couple of seconds
I looked at three post game analysis videos of this game and Agadmator's was the most enjoyable and easy to understand, at least for me. Great job!
This is just insane !!
Magnus has started chewing on Super Computers!
You know it's a good one when medo is already present at the opening...
Shakhriyar is a player I have a ton of respect for, on and off chess; & MC is, well, MC. Thanks Agadmator for explaining a game by two guys who are brave enough to try to win such battle, and not just not to lose. A Masterclass.
As always, great analysis!
8:42 "Magnus agrees with the supercomputer" - OMG what a phrase, just think about it guy really..
Kasparov was right like he said on the Lex's podcast. Amazing Karpovian play by Magnus at this time.
I cannot find a metaphor to compare this game to anything else, I will allude to this game after twenty years as Magnus-Mamedyarov, and talk about how he won, with Qd1 and b3. And this is probably the best explanation that Agad has ever provided. This is simply beautiful.
I agree agad did a good job showing this game
They use Magnus to analyse Sesses moves...
"So where did Mamedyarov go wrong?" He sat down at the table.
the title should be Magnus (Supercomputer) vs Mamedyarov (Balls of Steel).. dis game was awesome, definitely a fan of mamed now.. wonderful commentary.. thanks Agad
Amazing, Magnus seemed three steps ahead all the time, stunning and what a good match to watch! Great analysis
Seems Magnus got some use for his match prep vs Nepo. That kind of exchange sac looks like something Nepo could have gone for... That b3-idea is spaceman chess - a well defended passed pawn on c3 is usually the kind of compensation for the exchange Black is only dreaming about and here it was somehow winning for White! :O
Mind-boggling play! Surely Shak was pleased with his position, until....
Magnus is the only player who is undefeated in this tournament
No fair, everyone else had to go against Magnus Carlsen.
"The reason this keeps happening -- Magnus crushes Nepo, Magnus mops the floor with Mamedyarov -- is because he does not show his best play except when he knows he really needs it. So even though he is world champion, his opponents are actually underestimating him." - Paul Deck, youtube profile
interesting comment, use it for your quote next time
If that were the case then he needs best play all the time right now for 2900
Who came here after watching live just for the agad analysis?? ❤
It's truly a game beyond the reaches of even the most genius human minds.
Agadmator 2021: A truly tough opponent
Agadmator 2022: A former member of the 2800 club
My head can't wrap around this level of play even after seeing it
Just checked this game with Stockfish 14. Carlsen had a 99% accuracy. Incredible.
Who dares wins ... maybe not all the time, but I love that bold attitude that Shak brings to the table. Eff the draw! I'm coming to beat you Magnus, and you better play super computer moves or you are gonna lose.
I just refreshed the feed! And now I need more of this! Great stuff
Wow. This might be one of Magnus greatest games.
I think it was Karjakin who last defeated magnus in classical format.. It was Shakhiyar who defeated magnus before magnus amazing unbeaten run which was ended by Duda...
Karjakin defeated magnus in Norway chess. Mamadeyarov defeated carlsen after that in the European club cup.
@@charanvjy716 was it classical though??
@@sumukhhegde6677 It was.
Just checked it up. It was actually a draw. Carlsen managed to grind a draw in a completely lost position.
It was Jan Krystof Dida
Love how you had chosen the photos for this game xD
The dog was REALLY chilling out in this video, so sweet
This game was super wild to watch live.
Where did Mamediaroff go wrong?
When he sacrificed the exchange. That's how the mind of a Magnus works.
It's mamedyarov I think
Sharkrare Memedaiforovov
Mongus😳 Carl's-son
Love your commentaries on all games - I think this game was one for the history books - excellent to Magnus and Agadmator
Just Amazing !!! Thanks 🙏
"So where did mamedyarov go wrong?" - he tried to beat magnoos
Because such non-human moves, it could be good idea to introduce mandatory detailed check of non organic objects inside the player's body. With today technology it is so easy to hide completely passive receiver with small antenna that responds with subtle vibration which transfers information about the strongest next move.
This the best games played in the tournament and Agad, you made it look more beautiful. They should just give you the honorary grandmaster title for making chess popular and more enjoyable.
Wow! Sick game! This one will surely be in future educational books of positional play. Cheers!
With these two you can never get bored. What a game
Good to see that engine can find Magnus moves
I swear super computers are just Magnus Carlsen sitting behind a pc telling which moves are best.
Does anyone know what game Antonio is talking about when he says Shak was the last one to beat him in a classical game?
Was waiting for your reaction/analysis after watching the game live.. what a game it was... Also did you watch the post game interview of magnus😆 ?
Agad tweeted after the interview ,,Magnus took down Shak and Anish in one round'' or something along those lines 😅
@@khktgnk57 really? Lol😆 hope it's no personal hate between both players
Dont think so, they're just teasing each other a bit
I just want to say Qc1 is definitely a strange sideline response. As a Catalan player, taking the bishop after a5 is definitely a mistake, not just fine for black. Also, a3 is the most common move, and the idea is to follow up with b3, intending to recapture the pawn on b3 with the Queen. The knight is misplaced on b3 and wants to keep watch over e4 in the event that playing e4 is a profitable idea, also the Queen will often move down to b2 in these lines. I don't like Qc1 is what I'm trying to say.
Absolutely in awe of Magnus's aggressive play during this tournament. Real next level stuff. I believe he can make 2900.
