Maybe if I drink enough orange juice I'll become a champ

sometimes games aren't interesting, that's just normal. Imagine a calculation mistake on move 8 and the game is over, that can happen to the best, and then there isn't much to say, right? it's the same for starcraft 2.

[Victor Diaz]

Yeah!!! versus GM Kasparov he won..xD

ANAND IS BEST AND 5 TIMES WORLD CHESS CHAMPION ALSO CURRENT CHAMPION.

[SBVolav]

it's because he's actually a robot, but don't tell anyone

Superior whites? You seriously have some "superior" complex there buddy. And if youve noticed the Champion is Indian, and the next in line are divided between your whites and of other ethnicities

True, a high APM (Actions per Minute) is essential... but you still have to know where to click and what to click. I can compare it to a blitz game of 2 minutes in chess. Im a big SC BW (not SC2) player and chess player (ELO 2168).I miss Jaedong and Flash in BW!!! lol. BTW, chess-related... love Carlsen's composure, he's very humble like a true champion.

and if you remember Magnus sacrificed his chances for the world title just to prove that point...

i assure you i meant no disrespect to Anand but i totaly stand by what i previously said, and you'de be surprised by the number on people who agree with my sentiments. You want examples? How about the world championship match, which was the saddest excuse for a world championship match in classical chess i've ever seen. Why should Anand be treated differently by FIDE and not participate in the candidates tourny himself like all the other top-GM's?
