I had see many chess player have different style while playing chess except Alexander Alekhine,one of the best history's attacking player,and is known ability to play creative and deep combinations.Until today,some of his famous combinations are so deep that even modern players and computers have not conclusively shown whether they are completely sound.This allowed him to find complications in positions that appeared quiet to most players.

In my question,what make him genius actually??
