Anish Giri LOLs

Why did he tweet that notification? Does he have previous history with agadmator?
@clutchnutz I'm not sure about history, it could just be agamator is the most prolific chess youtuber, everyone seems to know about him and has lots of memes around his common phrases, so I guess Giri is saying "i've made it" in a joking way?
@h2b2 That's possible. I was thinking about some of the criticism that has been directed at agadmator because of his relatively low rating compared to the players he analyzes. There are GMs and top players who don't get nearly as many viewers and some seem bitter about it. Giri seems cools though.
agadmator just recites stockfish lines and misses some nuances for sure based on me watching a low rated gm analyze the same game as agadmator. I stopped watching agamator after seeing that.

but it takes more than good analyses to be popular on youtube, agadmator has hit the right formula. frequent, short and entertaining.
I think Giri didn't made it to the final. It's nepo vs magnus

Agatmator in recent video said that 'Giri fall asleep"
@h2b2 Honsetly most people don't watch agadmator for the chess analysis. It is because of the memes. I watched his videos before the 'meme storm' they were pretty good. One of the reasons I watch agadmator is because his videos are always being released minutes after the games are finished. If you want a quick Stockfish analysis by a human right after the game is done, go watch agadmator. I think this is one of the main reasons agadmator is so successful.
I personally wonder how much sub-2000 players benefit from the nuanced analysis offered by a GM compared to analysis by an expert. I'm sure there is legit benefit some of the time but for the most part, the expert will have plenty to offer the average viewer.
