Please note that this website is currently a work in progress! Lots of interesting data and statistics to come.
Basically a guy ranked #1 destroyed a guy ranked #124 in the world
The account of the dude the #1 guy was playing on is only ranked 1009 so I can imagine the guy in the video was justifiably surprised
So... anybody have a follow-up video? I want to see his reaction when he finds out it was Magnus.
"Either he is the biggest genius in the world or this is just weird." Well, he is not wrong.
Is there any clip where he finds out who his opponent was? I would like to see that reaction.
Jan's banter streams are lots of fun and hilarious. I've been watching them for almost 2 years.
Seriously, he explains what's going on and has a lovely sense of humor. He occasionally loses matches, but he wins most. It's blitz chess most of the time, so not too much time to play standard and intuition and gut take over and sometimes clever traps or rare positions make for amusing games
I've seen him lose some games to other high level players or people who make machines work for them, but I'd never before see him be outclassed. His losses usually came through a process where he understood how the game was going and how he was being slowly but surely ground into defeat. This is something else... you can tell that he FEELS outclassed, he doesn't even understand what Magnus is doing. These aren't standard lines or standard choices and yet they're so powerful that I think it's evident to Jan that he's out of his depth. He is pretty sure he's playing against an engine there.
He destroyed Jan so effortlessly. And Jan is like top .01% in the world. Jeez.
Apparently an ELO difference of 200 points corresponds to a 76% chance of victory.
I have a rating of ~1400 (which means I can destroy most newbies in the game consistently). Magnus is rated 2800+.
This means he destroys the players who destroy the players who destroy the players who destroy the players who can destroy me.
Absolutely insane.
Fucking smurf accounts dude
At least 50% of professional chess seems to be creating elaborate videos to troll other chess players.

Here is a link where Solomon confirms that it was Magnus playing on his computer at a chess tournament they were both attending.
