Can someone explain to me what exactly Nimzovich and Steinitz invented what Morphy didnt already use.

Nimzovitch-- Nimzo-indian, Queens-indian, Nimzovitch defense.

Stienitz -- Tough one. didn't he have a variation of the Kings gambit named after him?

 

Steinitz- The French Steinitz Variation (1.e4 e6 2.d4 d5 3. Nc3 Nf6 4.e5)

The Caro-Kann Steinitz Variation (1.e4 c6 2.d4 d5 3.Nc3(or Nd2) dxe4 4. Nxe4 Nd7) 

And I Guess others

Also, Tal is the only player to have finished his life career with a positive record versus Fischer.

Geller. Lifetime score vs Fischer was five-to-three, with two draws.

Morphy developed the strategy of the open game. His new insights placed him on a level far above his contemporaries, to a degree that has perhaps never been equalled since.

Steinitz developed the concept of positional play in closed games, and Nimzovitch added a whole battery of new ideas to the play of closed and (especially) semi-closed positions.

I'd have to disagree there. Tal was old, sick, and dying and still beat Kasparov in the Moscow blitz tournament.

I think Magnus IS the Evil Twin.

Pretty sure the Good Twin forgot to check his closet one night. Many years ago.....

Fischer warned us we would fall victim to such a conspiracy!!!

Why wouldn't we listen????????

Eu tenho que discordar lá. Tal estava velho, doente e morrendo e ainda bateu Kasparov no torneio blitz de Moscou.

o unico que poderia "bater" kasparov é capablanca talvez bobby ficher... no demais ele está sim acima de todos os outros.e quem não concorda  tem que aprender um pouco mais de historia d e xadrez...desculpe.mas é um absurdo naõ citar kasparov,capabanca e bobby fischer!!!!! estes 3 são os 3 melhores!

mais uma vez me desculpem!

that made my day just now.

Of course no intelligence is required. It's all memorization, unless one veers off.

It's not my fault lower intellects like you can't grasp something so simple.
