    For the majority of the event, I think the choice of casters is excellent.
    This is not one of those times

    So what happens to Peags next with this being a draw? Can someone pl explain 🙏

    Tanya and Ginger GM are good but you need a super GM like Leko to deliver the real insights at this level.

    Pranananda and magnus at the finals. Game of the Century!

    Ive never played a real opponent before so i cant say much about the feeling ov bring victorious

    A very big miss opportunity by Abasov , by the way he showed to Magnus that he is a strong GM

    How about black rook to h5.

    great games. sad that we're back to the screaming woman to comment. hard for me to understand why Peter Leko is not here for the final few games.

    BOOM. Thank you Tania and Simon for wonderful commentary today. Pizza debates and all.

    you think they could give these players some better quality chairs 😅

    Can someone please explain to me what turd place is??

    Really … half the time they don't even bother to keep up with the game moves. The other half they don't even show the live board. We tuned in to watch the player in the tournament, not the sideliners.

    Hmm, I wish people would choose a few choice words to express their ideas. Its hard to focus when there is a whole monologue to explain a single idea…

    They've been talking about Magnus casting Queenside at around 1:18:00 and after every move they're looking at it again. Stop. Please. Unless you know he's going to, why delve down that line and variations for 10+ minutes??

    I wish they would spend more time on the games than on reviewing potential lines from 5 moves ago. Active potential lines and creative ideas from the past couple moves are fine but I feel like most of their discussion isn't about what's actually happened/happening.

    Amazing that Magnus found Kb4 with such apparent ease.

    Manoeuvre Skills of Pragg's, Masterfull. Even after a pawn down in the Endgame, while Fabi on the + in the whole match ?! Admirable, Commanding capabilities. Pragg got this, He's the One.

    Congratulations to chess 24 for successfully finding the absolute worst pair of commentators for the most important stages of tournament….Truly genius

    I love these comentators. ❤ Very nice team. I don't understand so much hate in the chat.

    Quite sad that they bought this commentary team at such an important point in the tournament. Even the interview with Magnus seemed painful for him. Hope they bring back leko/danya/Howell for the finals

    I love how after almost every game Magnus almost signals to his opponent he wants to talk about the game with his facial expressions. For 2-3 seconds he has these facial expressions then he talks. It's amazing.

    Chess is a game where Magnus wins at the end

    It was a rollercoaster of emotions in the magnus vs abasov game, so many mistakes, misses and blunders . But in the end Magnus takes the win.

    Magnus the goat. Magnus' haters will mald when he wins world cup to then rejects the spot in the candidates. Because people will know magnus still is the best even though he isn't a classical WCC anymore 😂

    Y'all should've seen just how many viewers were panicking when Magnus was running out of time, not knowing there's a time extension on move 40 😂

    Both abasov and keymer had their chances and gave magnus a tough match.

    Literally anyone but Tania please. At least tell her to pipe down a bit. Also this duo is not up to par with the others and it’s only semis and finals left. Come on

    Why didn't Salimova take first place if she got more points in the Cup?
