Minecraftado Destroys Your Opponent's Psychologist by Delivering the Lady at Bid 13

@Minecraftado If you share the same opinion as Topalov, then check out some recent Carlsen's games (before GCT St. Louis) to see if there is not creativity. Or some Michail Tal's games it about the same.
Also, check out some endgames by Carlsen or Fischer to see if there is no ability.
Moreover, I can suggest you a game between Ding and Mamedyarov, where up until move 20 every move was preparation.
Lastly, my coach (who is an IM) has gotten a degree in phsycology and has published a book revolving around them two.
If you are still unconvienced, there are Alphazero games that may make you change your mind. I would also like to remind yoy that chess is the ONLY game that hasn't been solved by a computer. Creativity and ability count the most.
PS: There is a famous game between Vladimir Kramnik and Peter Leko that Leko played a move that an engine couldn't spot. What about this? Do you still believe that if the engine suggests something is the best?
@dark_bishop01
I mean that you judge my movements wrong by what the computer says, but in a match there are more important factors than just the cold judgment of the computer.
@Minecraftado

There were no psychological tricks here. You guys both played extremely questionable moves, AKA blunders. You were extremely lucky that your opponent blundered as much as you. I really wonder how people get to 1400+ like that.
got a look at the computer analyse ( not that it was needed though) looks like a seismograph lol
i must confess i have games with so many blunders but this game is just too much regarding the kind of mistakes.
@Minecraftado

Just because I haven't played any rated games doesn't mean my opinion doesn't matter. You can look at my games, I play semi-decently. At least I don't blunder my queen twice in a row.
