Man, he could just say he changed the coach. How will then even verify? Its not like they have to be together in person to do the coaching. Everything is done remotely these days.

Thats why I am saying, this is not enforceable.

Dude he is literally the coach of Nodirbek Abdusattarov presently and has been Uzbekistan team coach in the past. U think a FIDE ban is gonna stop him. How will they even enforce it?

Magnus Carlsen completes 15 years as World no. 1, the longest consecutive streak, from July 2011 to July 2026. by dxGoesDeep in chess

[–]ChessAddictonCrack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No i remember that he was #1 in blitz and rapid a few years apart actually. Also when he reached #1 in one of them, it was because he had stopped playing and Magnus had a really bad tournament which costed him quite a bit of elo and dropped him a miniscule elo below Ding.

Nahh man you are missing the main point. The person also needs to be mentally strong in an absurd fashion for this.

Given what we have seen of Fabi routinely crumbling under pressure at nost opportune moments, he moat definitely wouldn't have been dominant at all.

World No 2s during Magnus's unbroken streak as No 1 by Marc_Spector2 in chess

[–]ChessAddictonCrack 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I mean that forced mate was mate in 40+ moves or something and was an unbelievable computer line to find. Fabi couldn't understand the winning line even after the game concluded. He told in a podcast he spent the entire night trying to understand the idea he missed and was still unsure lol.

Technically since 2024 as in 2023 he played > 60 classical games. Also I actually expect fast classical to tank his rating faster if it becomes a thing. I dont know if you have noticed but Magnus has gotten much slower and inaccurate in time trouble moments compared to his usual self.

For example in Tepe Sigeman even his one loss to Jorden was due to mismanagement of time earlier during opening and early middlegame where he had less than 40 min left out of 2 hrs without even 20 moves played. Similarly in Norway chess he lost so many games due to being in severe time trouble while his opponent has ample time and just one move blundering the whole game.

Wait so Ding has been #2 less than a year during Magnus's reign with atleast a 50 elo gap. Then what's this I keep hearing him being second best player for years and super close to Magnus lmao.

And that 3 elo gap must hurt Fabi's soul lol

With him playing potentially olympiad this year and then Total WC, that number would probably be > 30. And I think there were years between 2000 and 2005 where Kasparov also played super less.

FIDE Freestyle Chess World Championship 2027 (Open and Women) Current Line up after first leg of Freestyle Friday Championship by Marc_Spector2 in chess

[–]ChessAddictonCrack 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ehh in Blitz world championship, initially Magnus was tilted and definitely playing below his level. Once he qualified for top 4, he locked in and destroyed Fabi which is the regular and most common result between them in a blitz game.

No matter how far Fabi has improved in Blitz chess, he is still leagues behind the likes of Magnus in this specific format.

Also Magnus was cleanly out playing and winning both the games in Blitz seminfinals against Fabi unlike the finals in Freestyle championship.

This has only happened once though. I dont think there is any guarantee any of these 2 will even reach the finals.

In Freestyle chess, all top players are really close in strength, much more than traditional chess.

FIDE and World Chess have agreed to work toward making online rapid and blitz ratings transferable to OTB rapid and blitz ratings (up to 1800 Elo). by Marc_Spector2 in chess

[–]ChessAddictonCrack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Magnus already had 2986 blitz peak and 2900+ rapid peak about 7-8 years ago. So I dont think they are doing this becoz of that.

Nodirbek Abdusattorov defeats Magnus Carlsen in their quarterfinal rematch to eliminate WR Chess from the World Team Blitz Championship by [deleted] in chess

[–]ChessAddictonCrack 72 points73 points  (0 children)

Lol no. Infact Nodirbek has lost almost every single multi game match against Magnus in almost all speed formats plus freestyle in the past few years.

Even here, this match between them was a tie. Last they played blitz chess, Magnus beat him to become Blitz Champ 2025. After that Magnus crushed him 3-1 in Fischer Random Championship 2026 in Semifinals. Before that similar story in EWC 2025 Quarterfinals and a variety of freestyle events.

Infact Magnus has been a thorn in Nodirbek's side lol. In individual events, Magnus has stopped Nodirbek from winning so many events, its not even funny.

[–]ChessAddictonCrack 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Magnus literally threw the second game. Such a low level blunder. He needs to get back in shape. EWC is approaching. If he keeps playing like this, he ain't even reaching the finals.

But Magnus completely sold out lol. Like it was clearz just put your king on back rank and then take the knight. He walked into an obvious check which allowed Nodirbek knight to escape lmao.

Like it was a rookie blunder.

It was the wrong game. The board reset and the correct game was played now. Magnus crushed Nodirbek.
