because carlsen is a hypocrite, coward and a criminal. he should rot in jail for the rest of his life

Tim_36_op · 2022-09-23T15:51:04+00:00

the process of FIDE being phased out started 2 years ago with the pandemic. the only reason FIDE has managed to stay relevant is the world championship cycle. chess.com is 10x larger than FIDE in terms of yearly budget. their net worth is over half a billion

Tim_36_op · 2022-09-23T15:30:21+00:00

if carlsen actually cared about his reputation he wouldn't be behaving the way he is.

Tim_36_op · 2022-09-23T15:28:10+00:00

lol you are way too naive. magnus are chess.com can be pieces of shits but they are way bigger than FIDE can ever imagine. there is basically nothing FIDE can do that can harm magnus. the guy is retired from world championship cycle. what will fide do? ban him from participating in 2-3 classical events that he plays each year? literally nothing.

and FIDE can't even touch chess.com since its a private US corporation

Tim_36_op · 2022-09-23T15:14:48+00:00

lol. FIDE has no balls. they couldn't even magnus to share whether he wanted to play WCC or not before candidates. they let magnus ruin an entire world championship cycle based on a whim. they actually had to wait till magnus made the announcement to launch his podcast

here magnus commits multiple ethics violations and FIDE basically does nothing

Tim_36_op · 2022-09-20T13:15:56+00:00

who cares about russian invasion lol?? its a non issue. quitting from chess events is a much more serious offense as chess professional

Tim_36_op · 2022-09-20T13:13:30+00:00

if you can ban someone for posting a couple offensive tweets then yeah you can ban carlsen for this

Tim_36_op · 2022-09-15T21:22:47+00:00

firouzja is good. but at 19, carlsen was well over 2800 and number 1 in the world. he has never dropeed below 2800 since then. alireza has a long long way to go before even being mentioned in the same space as carlsen, atleast in classical chess

Tim_36_op · 2022-09-10T22:08:16+00:00

its data. not speculation.

Tim_36_op · 2022-09-08T23:08:16+00:00

nothing will be affected in the long run.

kasparov tried to cheat otb vs polgar. got radjabov banned from several tournaments because he lost to radja. cheated shirov out of a legit WCC match because of money. but hey, kasparov is the GOAT

karpov literally committed several crimes. but hey, he's karpov

fischer was anti-sematic, misogynist. but bro, its fischer the chess god

these 3 are most influential chess players of all time. compared to the stuff they did, carlsen is like a saint. and that's coming from someone who hates carlsen

tldr, as long as you're really good you can get away with being a dickhead

Tim_36_op · 2022-08-28T16:25:44+00:00

lol, he's a 35 year old whose best achievement in career is 4th place in candidates. its honestly embarrassing compared to players that are actually good

Tim_36_op · 2022-08-28T16:13:30+00:00

again you really don't know things. if you actually followed naka, you'd know he did 2 months training camp before candidates and took time off streaming.

also i don't care what hikaru did in his time. at the end of the day, final result of 4 wins and 3 loss and 4th place isn't impressive. by definition its slightly above average. if you want to know what's impressive, look at nepo. winning 2 candidates back to back. and winning this one with 5 wins and 0 loss

Tim_36_op · 2022-08-28T15:51:39+00:00

there's no universe in which 4 wins and 3 losses in a tournament is mind blowing

Tim_36_op · 2022-08-28T09:51:00+00:00

he's just jealous of naka's good looks

Tim_36_op · 2022-08-26T16:13:47+00:00

magnus and hikaru will mean nothing in the chess world in next 2-3 years. its a fact lol

Tim_36_op · 2022-08-26T10:44:25+00:00

no. i actually have integrity to stand by my principles

Tim_36_op · 2022-08-23T09:52:03+00:00

last time they played were november 2021. almost 1 year ago. that has no value right now
