I personaly think its kasparov and mikhail tal. Kasparov- aggressive tactical player looking to sacrifies a pawn to produce imbalace in his enemy territory.. Very aggressive attacker too. Mikhail tal- the magician from Riga.. A man that believed in sacrifies when the enemy list expected them.. He brought magic to the chess board dspyt bn ill.. The man snikd out of hospitals to crash down opponents he once beat kasparov in 1992 a month b4 his death! :)

Defending your answer with they sacrificed is not a defense to your answer your just stating the obvious.

When this thread is finished, perhaps we could all weigh in on some other topics that have as much chance of being settled:

1) First? Chicken or egg?

2) How many angels can dance on the head of a pin?

3) What was the universe like BEFORE the Big Bang?

4) If God can do anything, can he make a rock so big that he can't push it?

5) What is Kim Kardashian famous FOR?

Alright , around 41 per cent say Kasparov and 39 per cent (including me) say Fischer and 10 per cent others such as karpov or capablanca. Done.

Emanuel Lasker Because he was the world champion for a long time and he even gave Capablanca a run for his money~I believe they were more down to earth on the chess board than the players today
