Magnus won that tournament btw, he also won 2 freestyle events 9/9 one of them (hasn't been seen since Bobby Fischer and Caruana) , he also won the e-sport cup.

It's safe to say that Magnus is currently in his peak, dude is now unbeatable. It's also safe to say that he's going to start sucking balls once his kid is born. Not like it matters, zoomers got WALLED by absolute superiority and skill.

>>717259268 (OP)
its a shit game. white is overpowered and black plays to draw, never to win. kinda like real life, but not great for a game. has devolved into opening memorization and just sitting there while a retard thinks of every permutation, just 10000x slower than a computer. real game doesnt start til midgame when better players can move off the setplay. still pretty shit in terms of balance and diversity of play. good for casuals and midwits that think its impressvie or makes them appear to be smart. similar to solving a rubiks cube that is just rote memorization to do in 10-20 seconds.

Friendly reminder that Carlsen won that tournament. Chess isn't like boxing or MMA, the best players of all time lose games here and there. Carlsen also lost to other players in this particular tournament, but as always he came out ahead in the end. He's really fucking mad here because he completely outplayed Gukesh and it was basically guaranteed that he would win, and then he blundered in time pressure and lost. Oh well, happens. The Norway Chess time control is very unforgiving.

Strategy IS memorization, you midwit. The correct phrase you were looking for is "chess is more about strategy than tactics".

These two digiter know-it-alls man I swear to God

>>717262915
no strategy is predicting your opponents plan and countering it

>>717262896
That's not how it works in chess. At the top level anyone can win a game against anybody. It's still an achievement to beat Carlsen, because he's considered one of the best players of all time (if not the best), but this kind of win-to-lose ratio is expected based on his rating. Nobody who knows anything about chess thinks there's anybody even close to Carlsen's level of strength at the moment in all time controls. Hell, Gukesh despite winning the world championship is considered the underdog when paired against not just Carlsen, but also players like Caruana or Nakamura. If you're wondering why the hell he's the world champion then, well it's a lot to explain.

strategy is not memorization lmao u fucking what mate. It's easier to memorize openings by learning the ideas and strategies behind them. And then there's forcing lines like 90% of the Sicilians which actually requires memorization from start to finish.

>>717263439
Yes, that's a strategy.

>>717263120
>>717262915
Both of you are wrong if you had ever read Art of War or the Book of Five Rings. Strategy is formulating a plan and leaving open room for flexibility once things get rough and you get struck back. Tactics is you figuring out the in-between parts on the fly such as how to move a unit that's being targeted to be the most beneficial to dominate the board. There is no plan once you've been hit in the face.

No strategy is to counter your enemy's counterplan after you have made a plan

>>717259647
He's somewhat right about openings. But once the middle game starts then you're "out of the book" and on your own. Back in the times when Fisher gave that one interview, it was much more common to blow your opponent off the board with an opening. E.g. Kasparov had many such games. But since then people's general opening knowledge has gotten much better. One of the top players in the world can no longer hope to crush even an IM in the opening. So at the top level openings more serve as a way to deliver some small sub-optimal novelty somewhere, which your opponent is not familiar with, hopefully leading to a sob-optimal response, and which will then allow you to get a small advantage that you can press in the middle game.

>>717261175

Literally predicting the outcome through fantasy-flight on coke and crack money tier wargaming.

>>717264552
Don't be facetitious, I was obviously arguing how you CAN plan for randomness. Therefore a game having randomness does not prevent strategy. Also you were responding saying randomness is not memorization, which therefore planning is not all memorization since it can account for randomness.,

>>717264804
Randomness strategy btw is just about maximizing the chance to get the RNG result you want through game mechanics given to you. Its not really that deep.

>>717264658
No clue what you're trying to say here
>>717264804
>>717264886
Still considerably weaker than a game with zero randomness, where strategy coincides with memorization, which was my initial point.

>>717264969
In a game with randomness you are just memorizing the routes to get to your favored RNG result just like in a real war, also in real war, you won't know what or how the enemy will react to a given circumstance and there's a chance based probability of failure due to the chaos of the battle and not everything going your way, just look at Afghanistan.

>>717265139
I am addressing your point that you are saying there's no RNG its all just memorization for strategy. If you can memorize every single chess line and play it through every time on the spot or OTB you would be around 3100 elo rated Grand Master by now, its not all "memorization" its both that and figuring out on the spot when you are stressed for time.

No, chess is all about strategy. Memorization is merely a crutch if your strategical thinking is underdeveloped.

>>717267825
Anon part of strategy is to know the far reaching ramifications of each strategy, every response and counter-response. That's memorization. There's a reason a computer with every board state optimal move stored in memory beats every human every time.

How can you anticipate a situation that you cannot conceive of? "Just relearn optimal movements in each board state through trial and error" is "Read a book" for retards that want to waste their time.

>>717268316

But you can, you know all the pieces and what movements they're allowed to make. More intelligent people will simply be more capable of conceiving of their movements than you are.

carlsen has said something similar. its part of why he has had less interest in classical chess and more interest in either higher speed chess or fischer random.

i guess the argument is in higher speed chess you can actually do unorthodox moves that technically don't work in the long term, because theres only so much time, allowing more exposure to less explored positions, which might force more calculations

no one seems to give a shit about fischer random though (probably no one ever will).

>>717269684
>carlsen has said something similar
carlsen is a little whiny bitch
if he wants less memorization then he should play go or shogi

>>717269936
Does Shogi truly have less memorization? It seems more complex in most boardstates than chess due to DEEP STRIKE rules.

>>717269684
>i guess the argument is in higher speed chess you can actually do unorthodox moves that technically don't work in the long term, because theres only so much time, allowing more exposure to less explored positions, which might force more calculations

That's provably true, considering the best player in the world makes mistakes when on a timer. People who say "chess is just memorisation" are just NPCs parroting some line they heard.
There are games that are both memorisation and mechanical skill, but 4channers don't play them. Everyone on this board is a stupid person who thinks they're too good for things, when they aren't good enough for anything.

>>717270084
there's pretty much about four openings deemed good in Shogi and there's set ways to break through castle defenses which are brought through the opening. A Shogi game can be beaten in 50-100 turns and a chess game in 30-70.

Paul Morphy isn't really in the conversation. Yes, he was better than anybody else during his times by a country mile, but his objective strength wasn't that great compared to the players of today. It's undeniable that he had great talent, but he was constrained by the lackluster knowledge about chess back then and by the lackluster strength of his opponents: if you don't have anybody even close to you in strength that you can play against, you'll stagnate. Kasparov is definitely in the conversation, though. If someone is curious, the three actual contenders in the GOAT conversation are:
- Fisher
- Kasparov
- Carlsen

>>717271126
What's stopping you from learning the game?

>>717271003

>>717270759
It varies, and depending on what you prioritize, you'll get a different answer for who is the GOAT. But some things that people often take into account:

unlike chess you can reuse the pieces in shogi
1, Ryuo-sen --- 5 hours and less than 60 seconds per move after consuming them.
2, Juni-sen --- 6 hours and less than 60 seconds per move after consuming them
3, Osho-sen --- 3 hours and less than 60 seconds per move after consuming them for preliminary tournaments.
4 hours and less than 60 seconds per move after consuming them for Osho-league.
4, Oui-sen --- 4 hours and less than 60 seconds per move after consuming them.
5, Ouza-sen --- 5 hours and less than 60 seconds per move after consuming them.
6, Kisei-sen --- 3 hours and less than 60 seconds per move after consuming them for preliminary tournaments.
7, Kio-sen --- 4 hours and less than 60 seconds per move after consuming them.
this is the time control for shogi

>>717271627
>>717271448
wrong. The quality of the games is what matters. I think dubov said it in a better way, you can learn the game and do what Caruana does but you can't really learn the way Magnus plays.

Kasparov simply demolished people in the opening but his logic and train of thought is below average, embarrassing even.

>>717271380
>I refuse to sacrifice pieces until there's no option.

I'm not an expert, but you can't do much if you're afraid of losing pieces. Don't worry about trading as long as you're in a good position afterwards. Like, if I leave a piece open to die (assume it's covered by a pawn), I don't even care if the enemy takes it with the same piece. Enemy bishop takes my bishop, and then I take his with a pawn. My pawn is in a good spot after, and he gained nothing (hopefully). If you refuse to lose anyone, you'll probably run out of moves considering your pieces are slowly moving towards the other side.

The sub-humans in this thread are talking about names, but nobody wants to give you any advice. I think it's just tiny brained NPC shit. Let me fucking stomp every single jeet below your post. There's a lot of these.

>>717271907
>The quality of the games is what matters
That's a component of your objective strength. It's just that you look at a large sample of games over a long time period, not just at a few. It also matters how well your opponents were playing in those games.

>>717259618
I love how proud non-Whites are anytime they best a White person in anything no matter how large or small the task.
The complex that displays was formed in the shadow of over a thousand years of White excellence dominating the Earth. Empires rose and fell and Centuries of Humiliation were endured by all. And even as Whites face our own Century of Humiliation as I type this, even the very best and brightest in non-White societies will still bear this debilitating insecurity even after I'm dead and Whites are numerous generations into nergofied, feminized decline.
