And Carlsen's Openings.

Tal's bravery and intuition.

Capablanca's unmatched ability to find genius in simplicity

Petrosian's abilty to apply relentless pressure and his positional play

Rubinstein's understanding of the subleties of the endgame and his ability to understand openings (the approach to which he arguably singlehandedly modernized) before so much of it could be found in books and databases

Nimzowitsch's originality

Spassky's creativity in the middlegame

Alekhine's sheer ferocity

Karpov's patience

Kasparov's accuracy

Deep Blue's tolerance of alcohol

(Just came back to chess in recent months after a long sabbatical, so can't comment on Carlsen, Nakemura and all those other young shavers)

In my humble opinion Fischer comes closest to being the total package.
