Magnus Carlsen is obviously insanely good, that goes without saying. But he tends not to explain what he’s doing in the same way other streamers do. I find it more fun to watch when there is commentary on the reasons behind the moves being made.
- shmageggy 6y agoI think it depends on when he's streaming and which platform he's on. I've found that many of his BanterBlitz sessions on YouTube are super interesting and accessible.
- chki 6y agoI think it also depends a lot on your level of chess and what you're looking for. I think the chess24 team (Gustafson, Svidler, sometimes Magnus) is maybe less accessible but more interesting for higher rated players.
- shmageggy 6y agoYes. I often find the Gustavson/Svidler combo too high-level to follow (especially when Grischuk shows up), but Magnus solo is often better, especially when it's already recorded so I can pause.
