Welcome to the "Who Will Triumph" series, where we will be looking at the clash between 2 "titans", @Elitechess0967 and @electrosaw. In other words, this is a "World Championship Match" between me and Tyson". Just like there's a Titled Tuesday, it corresponds to a UNtitled Tuesday. Since we want to experience what it is like to play the actual World Championship Match, we manage to set this up. 

The match is set for 24 rapid (15+10) games, and each player has the ability to claim 3 timeouts (A break of 3 days). It's interesting to note this format is just like Kasparov-Karpov matches, as we intend it to be. I am known for my "incredible" Positional play and endgame grinds, however, Tyson is known for his calculation and attacking ability. As a comparison, this is like the Clash between water (Me) and Fire (Tyson).  

Enough talking, let's get to the games.

Round 1:

Ok, small success for me, I have inflicted one defeated for my opponent. However the match is nowhere near over. 
1-0
Round 2:
A disappointing loss for me, but the match is still tied. 1-1
Round 3:
An exciting game, but I manage to came out on top.
2-1
Round 4:
Not a great effort from me, I made some blunders and that was it.
2-2
Round 5 and 6 Will be on May 8th. Rd 5 will start at 7pm, Rd 6 Will start at 8pm.
