Don't forget Judit Polgar guys, the only woman here, she's such a role model and inspiration, she proved that women can hang with the best !
The year is 1919 and in a land full of 2300 to 2600 players — which are also considered "world-class", mind you! — you are the sole, bona-fide SuperGM on a 2750+ level. Your name is JosΓ© RaΓΊl Capablanca.
OK, so this is not FIDE ELO, but you get the idea.
Current #1 is Cheater niemann, obviously.
capablanca was up there for so long till death :/
I have a feeling this graph underestimates positional geniuses like Karpov, since the engine used for estimation isn't capable of understanding the subtleties that made them great.
carlsen the greatest of all times
my man paul morphy literally ascended.
Jose capablanca is like unstoppable.π₯π₯
What would the rating of stockfish NNUE be based on this method? Infinite? π
Such a retard game. Learning from engines to compete with humans and the winner who can remember the best move. Ridiculous !
Kasparov was the player who informed me existence of a game named chess after his games againts AI Deepblue. But Tal, Fisher and Nezhmetdinov are the players who provided me to love chess.
