The answer is CROSSFIT ! 

CrossFit workouts are based on functional movements, and these movements reflect the best aspects of gymnastics, weightlifting, running, rowing and more. These are the core movements of life. 

 

LET ME EXPLAIN :

Basically what crossfit trains you to do is succeed in all around areas of sport. Simply if you are good at crossfit you are well rounded sportsman.

 

So let's put this same formula to chess to determine who's the best chess player in chess in ALL AREAS!!

Why just classical chess (it's like just doing powerlifting) , why just blitz (it's just like running), does it mean you are a great sportsman if you are just good at one thing?  No ! 

OK long story short 

My proposal to determine world chess champion from now on ! 

12 Games ONLY ! :

1st game - classical game 

2nd game - chess 960 game 

3rd game - rapid game

4 - blindfold game

5 - blitz game 

6 -  100 chess puzzles (who ever finishes first,with the more correct ones solved wins)

Same thing REPEAT another 6 games. 

 

So in my opinion this 12 games will not just decided who's the better chess player is ,but also will bring so much excitement to the viewers. 

What do you guys think?

The point of the game is determine who's better player is in chess , NOT in classical chess or rapid chess or bullet chess but overall chess strength in all aspects of the game, my system simply best to do so

If you want to be strong in all areas muscle groups , strength ,endurance etc cc do you think JUST powerlifting would do that?  No ! That's why you need crossfit program to push your body to the limits to its fullest

This is why I stopped coming to the forum for a year. And this is why I'm going away again.

Um... you know that this is technically the Official Classical Chess World Champs?? And that there are Blitz and Rapid World Championships as well (and puzzle composition tournaments). 

Wow...

Winner of the tiebreaker should be given title of World rapid chess champion I guess

I think 1vs1 is good but like Grischuk suggested you must win 6 classic time games to be the world champ.So games can become a very high number.
