Who is better Paul Morphy or Magnus Carlsen


I leave this forum, people do not read answers that do not leave any further quaestion. My post #229.
proof is right here.well you didn't say forever though but still counts

@Ruchinka: Science never unfair? Polemics unnecessairy indeed.
Thinking that you can compare the relative strenghts of GMs accross generations is severly oversimplification of reality. The scientifical method does not have to be unfair, but scientifical questions can be unfair.

as this thread is getting pointless as obviously carlsen is the better player (better not more talented) The better question is, WHOSE THE MORE TALENTED PLAYER, Carlsen or Morphy? ill post a new thread..

Who is the most coward almost world champion that there is? Co co co coc coc co co RI co Carlsen fried chicken

I was thinking that people have better things to do than comparing players which were born with a difference of 153 years. Apparently I was completely wrong.
Is that really what you were thinking?

anand doesn't like carlsen for taking the crown!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Morphy played in an era where there was little, if any, analysis to study, few chess books, and his play still stands up in accuracy. Overall, one has to givew the nod to carlsen.

Yep phren, you were wrong.

I think better question is "who was more talented - Carlsen or Morphy?" to which I'd answer Carlsen still.

but nowadays there is a lot of technological improvement and our brains have evolved so if carlsen was in the era of paul i think carlsen would be more than a machine for them!so i choose carlsen and morphy see this game played by paul morphy and see the brilliancy!
thus, this game shows morphy's brilliance but i still think carlsen is much better than morphy!
