Carlsen is far better than Nikamura. Even caruana is not as good.

Hikaru came 2nd in Magnus' world chess tour, tied for first in the 960 tournament, and second in the st louis, embarrassing Jefferey Xiong with a bong cloud opening.. Hikaru has had a impressive showing in 2020, and to consider him ranked 18th in the world as of now. Ridiculous, man is at least top 10.

Look at his winning percentage on this site! Like 95%+

Hikaru's Blitz rating is 3021, while Magnus's  Blitz rating is only 2992. Also, Hikaru has played thousands and thousands of games in both Blitz and Bullet, which proves his rating is accurate, while Magnus has only played like 70 blitz games and 22 bullet games.

Knickers-mura doesn’t really have the stamina for longer time controls. he could maybe ask for a wildcard to join the women’s tournaments.

Dude Magnus is the one who offered a draw in a winning position on the last long game of the world championship, just so he could win in rapid tiebreakers! Only 4 pieces were missing from the board total and black has a clear advantage here:

Ask any 2000+ rated player, Magnus or Hikaru, Magnus will be 90% of the answers.
Hikaru also had the guts to rate himself higher than Fabiano. This is untrue, as Caruna is much much better than him (look at the stats)

I think it would be 99% or more

Players rated 2000+ probably don't get impressed by live chess streams and bullet games

I HATE RAPID AND CLASSICAL

THEY JUST TAKE TOO MUCH TIME

AND SO SLOW 

I ALREADY KEEP MY MOVE READY AND MY OPPONENT THINKS FOR ANOTHER 20 MINUTES

NOT COOL

BULLET IS THE BEST 

THE BEST

Agreed, spending 2-4 hours on a chess game is insane. I rather play 50 blitz games online for fun all in one day!

Avatar of TheUnderDog001

Yeah, I think that's definitely going to help my chess a lot more than one game!

Naka is much better at blitz and has much more consistent results. The reason he loses to Carlsen is because he respects him too much. He’s worse in Classical and Rapid though. I guess we’ll see what happens in the Speedchess Tournament 

You are probably joking, because if you aren't then ill go hit myself on the head 10 times because of how wrong that is -_-

why do people suggest slow games for improvement? it's more like 2 hours of one game or 2 hours of many games
