If it's rating inflation why haven't other player's rating also inflated in the last 10 years...
Guys like Kramnik, Topolov, Anand have been consistently on the edge of 2800 for a long time.
Why Magnus Carlsen is so overrated?

Because their actual skill has declined?
Quick! Gotta go grab some popcorn! The troll is getting fed!

Kramnik and Anand? Lol no. Anand is Carlsen's second toy, and Kramnik was never considered as strong as Carlsen is now. He's being hyped because of his results and rating.

Without being overtaken by the next generation? Grischuk, Naka and Aronian didn't push them out, and also floated near or right at 2800.
And the last 10 years their age went from 30 to 40. 30s is too early to decline.

Lately a lot of great players have been able to compete with Carlsen in terms of rating
Why are these forums so ridiculous?

There's a reliable fomula you can always count on: The big the patzer, the more likely he is to think Carlsen is overrated. The stronger the player, the more he appreciates how strong Magnus is.
actually , as usual, you are wrong , its not a carlsen thing , weak american players tend to think that if someone lost a game , tournament or match he became weak , if he win he is very strong , case in point caruanas amazing performance , nakas been second in ratings, losing rating ment no more trds about him etc.

And the answer to the question "Why Magnus Carlsen so overrated?" is because he beats everybody and wins more tournaments that anyone else and highest rating in the world and is world champion.
i agree
You are actually an idiot to say that Carlsen is overrated.. He has a super human memory that far exceeds anyone in chess history. Go check out his 60 minutes interview from a few years ago, he can play blindfold chess with ten people at once no problem and win, he has every game he's ever played memorized in his head. He has the highest Elo rating in the history of chess and that rating system is no fluke. All of this however can't make him a perfect player, every one makes mistakes, and even when he messes up many times he makes it a fight to the finish. Study his games even the ones he loses, it's very very rare that he gets dominated over the board. I'd love to see anyone on this website go up against him, especially you buddy, he would checkmate you so fast you'd have to rethink your life.

There is no prodigy yet. Magnus is clearly overrated. He has no competition at the moment. He drew to a nobody recently. He wasn't even playing handicapped either. How does a world champion draw to a nobody? Magnus will decline when he has actual competition, not just old GMs.
Giri, Aronian, Caruana, Nakamura, MVL, So, Karjakin, Ding Liren, Grischuk, Li Chao and Mamedyarov are old GMs?
Well the actual, between the lines question is, why OP is so underrated? :D

Carlsen is a lucky champion , do you remember the way he won the candidates? In the penultimate round, he could not win to Radjabov, the position it was an easy draw ( a draw= kramnik win ) ,and then suddenly Radjabov make strange moves and he loses! .
He lost the last round too vs Svidler like an amateur he lost the nerve where a real champion (like karpov,kasparov,federer...) show to the world they are the best in his sport , no more tricks, win by K.O . Carlsen victories are Pyrrhic and hollow.
if just only kramnik had make draw vs Ivanchuk , Bye Bye Carlsen . HAHA but this guy is too lucky. Kramnik lost with a Pirc !!! it was surreal watch kramnik played that opening .
Actually, if both Kramnik and Carlsen had made draws, Carlsen would still have won the Candidates.

In chess you cannot be overrated : to break 2850, every point becomes harder to gain
Only player(s) that can beat carlsen in a tourney are fischer, kasparov and ding liren
They're all the same bitter inadequate troll, just using different names and flags. It's characteristic of a certain type of pathetic loser to try to make themselves feel better by attacking people infinitely more accomplished
"WAHHHH I DON'T AGREE WITH YOU SO YOU'RE A PATHETIC LOSER AND A TROLL."
