Chess is a game known globally as it shocks people every now and then that chess is played as a sport everybody can take it as a fun strategy game. But for the elite players at the strong level have mastered this game and are winning in 1 min online. Though to truly play a good game in these extreme time pressures you have to be tremeodous at the game. Now our main classification of the best player in the world is one of 2 things the current world champion or the World.1. Now being the world champion is a very high elite accomplishment in the world of chess it is not the title that defines if a player is a legend therefore the best. At first thought whenever you guys read this blog and saw this question a few players game in mind some old some young perhaps Bobby Fisher, Anatoly Karpov, Garry Kasparov, and the current greatest of all time Magnus Carslan. Now I think we can agree that elo is no longer a good way to quantify the best player of the world as saying let us compare Garry Kasparov to Gukesh. Of course Gukesh would have a good chance of taking over Garry Kasparov's peak as today there are so much more technolagy then existed when these people were in there peak over 40 years ago.

You see this amazing battle bewteen the two old superstars 2 world champions colliding they haven't gone on stockfish last night and studied openings a theroy they just made there own magic on the board two brilliant moves back back not theroy just pure chess the chess GM Magnus Carlsan was talking about in a Take Take Take intreview he said and I quote "We used to have magicians on the board" This was a idea of what he was talking about.

Now compare this to a modern day game 

You see how in this game most of the preperation is clearly from stockfish this is a game in American Cup 2025 teaching us how the difference bewteen the chess of modern day players and old players they memorize theory and some make magic on the board.

I am so angry right now and this is why. So I was just playing some chess and then I just started playing bots. But I was cooking I WAS IN A STREAK. I defeated all the beginner bots and then I also beat the GM Magnus Carlsen bot GM Hikaru bot GM Juduit Pogalar IM Danny bot. Then Finally I came to the GM Pia Cramling bot I have no idea what happened but she made me feel like even a baby could beat me AND I AM SO MAAAAAAAAAAAAAAD that she after that amazing streak I was going on she just ruined it and what doesn't make since is that in the time of making this blog she is currently #1661 and GM Magnus Carlsen is #1 and yet I beat his bot and couldn't beat hers.
