While there are currently over a thousand grandmasters in the world, only 14 players in history had crossed the 2800-rating barrier. GM Alireza Firouzja is the most recent addition to the 2800-club after scoring a sensational 8/9 at the European Team Championship.

Magnus worried, don't think so.
Why is this all speed chess? Being quick on Chesscom has nothing to do with his FIDE rating
Amazing talent .. Still on Team Magnus though .. Can't wait for them to play a classical game whith this crazy alireza form. shame alireza is not playing Tata steel
Magnus dislikes it ๐
Carlsen retires in what, 30 years'ish?
That's when Firouzja takes over the Classical crown.
Notice i wrote "Classical", rapid and blitz will be a different story.
Goat
but this is bullet and blitz… he got 2800 in classic
He's going to be the first to reach 3000 FIDE. Calling it now. ๐ช
Alireza Iran proud of you , hope soon Mullas leave the country and you compete for your own flag Iran ๐ฎ๐ท โค
Congrats firouzja what an amazing player ๐๐๐๐ฅณ
Magnus: FINALLY A WORTHY OPPONENT!
That ending gave me chills.
He started joining tournament at 12? Or started chess at 12? If he started at 12 that is just amazing how he learned so quick.
"All Fedoseev had to do was take the draw" He is so good that even an amateur like me won't go for the draw, just watching his amazing plays makes me want to play a game, same with magnus.
Dislike.
Firoujza pac-maned Naka's pawns, lol.
Iโm sure weโll see him at the next candidates tournament.
Watching him play gives me chills!
A legend is born!
Eu posso dizer que vi carlsen e firouzja.
2800 in classical and just shows bullet/blitz lol ok
Magnus has had a good run, but I think his day in the Sun is setting. Chess Players seem to be a lot like Mathematicians. They do their best work in their 20's.
Kind of funny to celebrate Alireza's FiDE rating with exclusively clips of him playing bullet and blitz.
he is gaining great feats in classical and u r showing his tricks for flagging opponents..๐ฅด
He looks like D-low
Candidates will be the true test of his strength. He's likely overrated (FIDE) currently.
Man it's hard to grasp the fact that he's in my generation…
The thumbnail is good on so many levels
Definitely someone to watch and a future contender for the world championship itself! We're living in another springtime for chess!
in the future, he will be magnus opponent in the world chess championship. F as in Fischer!!
I think it's still gonna take some time for him to become the World Champion, but he's on the right track.
2804*
wow
Is this a chess video or am I watching the Kentucky Derby?
God bless whoever made the thumbnail
F**k ๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ฅ goosebumps…
Best!
Bravo Alireza Firouzja <3
The Alireza Firouzja era is upon us.
FeelsStrongMan
He is really tricky thatโs epic this guy will be first on the chess boards he got so much talent and a lot concentration
Next title: youngest world champ
Most overrated player of all time ๐๐๐ Magnus will easily beat him
goosebumps all over!!!
It was easier for Magnus to beat Vishy Anand for the title of champion than it will be for Alireza to beat Magnus.
I would wipe the floor with this dude in chess.๐
Am I missing something? At 2:38, in the background the chess board is set up wrong, behinf Firouja, (white square is on the left side – with the black rook on it).
Persians Proud of you Alireza Firouzja โ๐ฏ
All Heil to the new King ๐
So proud๐ค Happy he left Iran to be focused on his game
This is Federer-Nadal. I suspect Firo will need one or two go's in WCC matches before he takes the crown.
