And how come they play bullet? Crap like that ain't Chess... It's a video game for Kids and Idiots who don't got no attention span?! Do they still press a clock? NONSENSE. Ban bullet. Seriously.

The person who is going to turn heads..this time is: " MARTIROSYAN "...

although his bad luck, he will play Hikaru first.

If Firouzja beats Hikaru in the second round, he will go all the way. 

TOP names on Hikaru side..are : Hikaru , Marirosyan,Alireza

Top names on Magnus side: Magnus , Nepo, Nihal

I predict that Hikaru will lose to Haik Martirosyan in round one. Firouzja beats Fedoseev, So beats Abdusattorov, Fabi beats JKD, Carlsen beats Maghsoodloo, Artemiev beats Giri, MVL beats Sarin, Nepo beats Aronian. I think Magnus will win the tournament.

I honestly don't want to see another Naka-Magnus final

I'm tired of seeing Naka choke almost everytime he plays him

Haik isn’t a big name. The big names on Hikarus side are Hikaru, so, and caruana

haik is a new prodigy, doing very well recently from Armenia..he is on his way up like alireza...

Avatar of Zzgloo

So many good candidates are going to get eliminated early because of competitive draws...

Avatar of rychessmaster1

haik doesn't stand a chance against hikaru though. He could beat ones like Parham or maybe Fabi but not Hikaru

Avatar of Evergreen_Warrior

Currently only Nepo and Wesley so can cause upset against Hikaru or Magnus but still it will be hard.
