GG Ding
That thumbnail is insane hahahah
Some consolation I guess for Hikaru, knowing that the guy who beat him in the candidates is the guy who won the championship. Who knows, if Magnus doesn't return for the next one, I think Hikaru has a real chance to win it!
who were supporting Ding?
👇
ding! ding! ding! we have a winner! congrats, Ding Liren!
Ding chilling 😂
NOO MAGNUS IS STILL AWESOME AND THE BEST THE TITLE DOESN’T CHANGE ANYTHING!❤
I have Exams starting on Tuesday but all I have been doing is watching every stream of hikaru to witness one of the best OTB Games ever, the tension, the leak, the 1 second vs many, the nervous wreck ding, him being blunt about everything in post interviews, also him not even receiving support from his own country. I don't regret anything heck might even get my first like by a channel I support.
Ding Chilling Big W
This was both heartbreaking and beautiful at the same time
Am I the only one there who wanted Ian to win?) Cheer up guys ЧИИР АППП
Congrats Ding. Impressive defense from worse positions throughout the match. Nepo has consistently been in better position after opening due to either better prep, or Ding playing dubious moves for winning position. But you can see he's confident in himself defending from worse positions if his risky moves don't pan out, even if he's low on time almost every game.
Side note Nepo always plays fast and now you can see why. Because he's such an emotional player, when he's low on time his accuracy takes a huge dip and makes blunder after blunder. Fabi mentioned that players who are willing to invest a lot of time in early-middle game are usually strong in shorter time control because they don't worry about time trouble and this final game really shows.
human lvl chess world championship.
Magnus had to step aside to give the children any chance.
I looked at all the previous world champions, Ding Liren is the first ever Chinese world chess champion! Congrats to Ding!
Settling the Classical Chess world championship with rapid chess seems ridiculous to me
The fact your weren’t streaming this is bullshit.
None of them deserves the title. Period.
Welcome back!
One comforting thing is that Ian didn't lose due to a huge blunder.
Looking at his candidate tournament run, and how he was always pressured during most of the WCC matches, this is really one story to tell man.
His resilience and resolve could be seen from this move 22:59. He was down on time by a lot, and could went for a draw, but he just went for it. Mad props to both him and nepo, what a match
Hikaru with pinneple shirt is above than any world champion
The thumbnail, I gonna give social credit
Atleast now Hikaru should try become world champion
for ding to win world championship,
Russia has to war and a GM had to go nuts
Hikaru had to believe Magnus isn't dropping his title
Magnus had to drop his title and finally
Ian had to wear a pink shirt and lose for believing superstition I guess
He is therefore a deserving world champion…Cassia smiled too much

Ding’s title is miracle. Both players are solid. Ding captured one more mistake than Ian. Look back to the beginning, Ding wouldn’t have won the title if 1. Chinese chess conference didn’t host three tournaments in two months 2. Hikaru didn’t have a quick draw with Ian in round 12 in candidate match or didn’t lose the last match with Ding 3. Magnus didn’t give him a chance 4. Ian could have taken the title in game 12. In summary, if you are not magnus, you need huge luck to become a world champion 😂
props to ding and ian at the beginning for spending 1 hour and 35 minutes on the first move.
WOOOO WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Poor Ian, First, Fide didn't allow him to represent his country Russia and forced him to use (The FIDE's flag????) "for some political ridiculousness" and Second, he lost two world championships on a row. The only thing which makes me happy about this result is that Lapport is Ding's coach, so I'm happy for him.
Ding Chilling 🥶vs Ian Forgor 💀
Love your shirt man, very classy 😎👌
will elo increase for Ding? how does it work
Thanks Hiki for choking against Ding in the last round of the Candidates.
Good guy Hikaru giving Ding the last round win at candidates to give him a look at the championship match so he gets profit more as a streamer from analysing these games
unreal game, congrats ding, so glad i got to witness it live
Engine DING-GINE! He basically like played the equivalent of Game 7s numerous times in the past years. Not really an underdog skill-wise but the position he was in just to scoot in on the way to the championship scene is a movie.
And as the WCC games progressed, it was like 2 things just waiting to happen: a Nepo mistake or a Ding freeze. Turns out time control went to Ding's advantage after battling it all through the WCC. Personally rooted for Nepo though and it was tough but overall, it was a brilliant chess tournament.
DING CHILLING 🥶 AND DING WINNING ❤
When everyone thinks it's done for Ding, he comes up with some brilliant moves and turns the table.
That champion would have been you.
Thumbnail is gold, Ding really is chilling
Is there a trophy?
Next year Hikaru vs Ding
2024 New world champion
I tuned in late, why was Hikaru so mad at FIDE?
Well deserved champion 🏆
Hikaru welcoming me back, Ding meeting Rapport, sentimental times my friends. 😍😍😍😍
Nepo will make the greatest comeback!
It could have been Nakamura.
My favourite moment was when Liren said "It's Ding chilling time" and chilled all over Nepo, truly a moment of all time.
Hikaru as cool as a 🥒 af
( as usual )
What an angry title lol
