morphy/fischer/kasparov/anand/carlsen. The greatest ever.

I am surprised that I've survived for so long against such a strong ĢM. I expected to get checkmated much faster!

@hangrad haha yes i bet he can mate me in 4 moves.lol

@hussainindia Eventually you will face him in one of the arena tournaments. Please don't resign when the game starts and try to survive for as many moves as you can. You might break my high score of 23 moves.
It's very special experience to face such a strong player. He plays very well and very fast. I have no clue how to become that good.

@hangrad i never resign without a fight. I always enjoy a fighting game. Let's see what i can do if i face tang

@hangrad i know i have seen a some of his bullet games with magnus. he recently faced magnus OTB in world rapid and blitz where he lost.

The original question is who is the strongest among many chess players. Nobody can answer this question without personally facing them all and seeing which one of the candidates defeats them in the fewest moves. Some of the candidates are no longer alive and some are no longer playing. From the list, only Carlsen and Anand are currently active. These two players played each other many times. From the results it's clear that Carlsen is the best active player in the world. However, there is no chance I would ever face him. So among all the players I have ever faced, Andrew Tang is the best!

@hangrad andrew tang is a strong GM no doubt but OTB i doubt if he could stand players like carlsen or mamedyarov or caruana.

Kasparov, Fisher and Magnus are clearly greatest.

But if to look on style, some players did art on board, they'd go for lose instead of draw and they truly special:
Tal, Nakamura, and top of this - Kasparov

@hal9k well i agree with you that tal was one player who created a great pieces of art OTB. i thoroughly enjoy watching his games on youtube.
