When You’re Not Properly Warmed Up — Magnus’ Blooper Take

December 17, 2019 by Chess Chest Leave a Comment

Download Tactics Frenzy on the App Store:
https://apps.apple.com/us/app/tactics-frenzy-chess-puzzles/id1485857305?ls=1

Android coming soon. Sign up and get a special discount on the launch day https://www.playmagnus.com/tactics-frenzy/android

The new Tactics Frenzy version is available in the App Store! It features the new timed mode, where you’re fighting against the clock to finish as many puzzles as possible.

Key Features:
*Choose Whether You Want Easy, Medium or Hard Puzzles
*One-Click Feature To Review Any Mistakes
*Compete for Monthly Prizes on the Leaderboards

————

This video gives a look into how we make these videos at the Play Magnus headquarters in Oslo. This is Magnus’ first take, and it wasn’t perfect — we had a visiting camerawoman from NRK lurking in the background and Magnus’ chess brain was not fully calibrated! But its imperfections make it fun! If you couldn’t beat Magnus’ 28 of the previous video, can you make 18?

In the video, Magnus plays an alpha mode in which the feature of losing ten seconds per failed puzzle was (mistakenly) not yet added.

———–

Solve millions of unique, entertaining and high-quality chess puzzles. Start competing for prizes in the monthly highscore lists.

Tactics Frenzy has been developed by the world champion Magnus Carlsen, WGM Olga Dolzhikova, GM Jan Gustafsson, GM Jon Ludvig Hammer, GM Aryan Tari, and IM Sebastian Mihajlov.

The computer-generated puzzles have been created by the first author of StockFish (the world’s best chess engine) Tord Romstad and chess puzzle developer Martin Bennedik. Human-generated puzzles are also thrown into the mix, all approved by our team of Chess Experts.

@ginger_gm @chessable @richardpalliser Good stuff, guys! I had a look at these lines back in 2019 for my Sicilian course as Black. I was surprised to find that this is much better than you might think at first. Leads to good fighting positions and certainly will surprise people!

Thats a nice checkmate! 😎
This 1 e4 c5 2 Be2 is a very interesting idea, aiming for an ideal Dutch.
It's a nice 'system' opening, meaning knowing the basic plans is the key.
Hopefully I explain them all in the videos!

Magnus, but not Carlsen @NotCarlsen

@ginger_gm @chessable @richardpalliser Just tried my luck with 2 Be2 after watching your course intro and got this nice checkmate. Will definitely buy😀

❛❛ Notable Chess Quotes ❜❜

“Unlike other games in which lucre is the end and aim, [chess] recommends itself to the wise by the fact that its mimic battles are fought for no prize but honor. It is eminently and emphatically the philosopher’s game.”
