Why is Tal so popular and  to the taste and the liking of chessplayers, thanks to his risky style, his unpredictable brute force ?  I dont remember the original question at the beginning of this series, who is the "best" world champion, the most "computerlike", the strongest personality, the most innovative, whatever, that should be the criterium.

Sorry, Tal, I hurt you and nominate Lasker to hail, as a person and chessplayer, just playing normal chess, therefor he did not form a new "school", he just was the stronger man, even at higher age.
