I wasn't exposed to Wesley So outside of Gotham's video. Following his journey and his interviews during this CCT Finals has been amazing. Such an amazing character, slowly becoming my favourite player. Such a happy guy. Feelsgoodman.

No, seriously, that's a good answer.

Wesley is a great ambassador for chess . his answers were sharp and witty .

Wesley is the most humble chess pro I've ever seen.

Very humble and very nice Wesley so! One of the greatest Filipino chess player!❤❤❤

@@ray.b.75 depends, but a lot would say it's Asia's first GM Eugenio Torre. Even the great Tal himself can't win against the man in the age where there are no computers to aid analysis (altho ofc Eugene lost to all the others). It's a tie for me.

Wesley is a sucker for a high five and we're all LOVING him for it!

Most Filipinos are (been to the islands). They'll hi-five you for just about anything, even if you sing bad karaoke! 😅

Wesley saying he watches Hikaru’s streams is just too wholesome 😭 I really hope he joins a stream sometime, seems like he really has a lot of respect and love for Hikaru

A festival generally has multiple scenes (sometimes the scenes have their own type of music), with multiple artists or bands playing, sometimes over a few days. A concert may have 1 or 2 bands opening before the main band, but that's it, and you can wrap it in an evening while a festival will take at least a day. Love the video, Wesley often seems quite reserved in interviews but he seems like a chill guy.

You just gotta love GM Wesley So!

As a Christian and chess lover, you are an inspiration Wesley. I also love King of Kings!

Amen. I knew about Wesley So for a while now, but of the top chess players in the world, Wesley So is definitely one of the most outspoken about his religious faith (Christian). He is also a really humble person from what I've seen in other interviews.

same! except the Hillsong part

My first meet up with him was at Vung Tau, Vietnam 2004 and he already racked up individual gold medals for the Philippines at that time. Fast forward, he's WC type of player whilst I'm just a local IT programmer. Damn

What a great video! Loving the content lately

wow, love the energy, rooting for wesley in the tournament

Wesley So is an incredibly well achieved and talented chess player and a wonderful person!

Wesley So in every interview is like "This is awkward can I go play chess now please"

He loves The Batman which is one my favourite films tells me Wesley has great taste in movies and he’s a Filipino. Much respect to this man one of the best chess players ever, no question.🇵🇭 🐐

I never thought Wesley is this outgoing and welcoming

whats the background music name at the end?

The chess accuracy GOAT!🐐

I love so like I never new he was this funny

Chill interview

Love this guy

Wesley truly the goat in both rapid fire and rapid chess

Great job Danny introducing me to Wesley So. I have joined team Wesley!

Bros looking up thinking it’s a chess game and he’s calculating a 20move checkmate..

I love how he still has his Filipino accent on, if only our government wasn't that focused on basketball and instead supported other sports, Wesley could've repped our flag instead of the US

Wesley is the horniest GM I know

Wesley so is great guy.

This man's middle name is Barbossa. Imagine the intimidation factor of seeing the name "Barbossa" as your opponent.

Wesley So Humble and very approachable among all the Chess Legends. 🎉❤

True, because many times gives a draw even in a winning position as long as just need a draw to win the match

I could say 8th But i have braincells

"I'll go country because I'm getting older" LMAO

Keep reppin the King of kings!

So painful

"Winter or summer," Danny asked. Wesley answered. "I like fall." Gotta love Wesley haha!

It would've been funny if he said Magnus for poker😂

They almost hit timecontrol on this one. Gotta need that increment next time.

All those sports but not hockey. Bummer.

I LOVE Wesley

Danny literally asked favourite soccer player first and then asked favourite football player

Favourite song? Wesley: If takes takes takes Bc4 Nf3 I think…. 2hrs later. Magnus rap song is my favourite

whats this king of kings wesley mentioned? cause i see the metal song called the same and a steady one also

link the favourite games please!

Wesley forgot magnus for poker😱😱

IP Man 👍🏻

Notice all the Fischer random winners are likable and imaginative. Creativity wins random. All the clsssic winners are like robotic genius cold people that no one likes. Bc all they do is memorize shit and focus on perfection!

Wesley laugh 😂

Wesley So calling out MY favorite St. Louis Cardinals!!! WESLEY GOAT. New favorite.

Paige Spiernack 😂😂 cultured man Wesley

lionel messi u will be crushed by Ronaldo Magnus Siuuu😂😂

Coolest Wesley 😂

The recent Batman movie is the best? Nah. Not even top 3.

lol great ending

"best batman movie ever" that's a hot take 😂

he seems lovely. and is extremely based for saying lord of the rings

The perfect conclusion doesnt exist:

1:46 No wonder So likes Batman 2022 it starts with Ave maria😂

Mahomes is the correct answer.

question: winter or summer? wesley: fall ... ;)

Wesley Solid

Wes roasting Napoleon movie 💀

"Soccer"....Football" 😡

Guess karaoke is coming up, he's sure to make at least second place 👑🎤

bro wethley tho is the betht player of all time handth down

Make it Blitz next time.

1:20 nice wesley knows magnus gost

I don't like his playing style, but his personality is really the best out of all the chess Super GMs

Wes is my Asian dad

:D

Karaoke time with Danny Rensch since he's second

First view

ha ha ha ha . What a funny interview. ha ha i laughed so much. Also, to everybody characterizing this guy as humble - If you truly sincerly believe it, you are the most sweet and inocent white baby lambs ever to grace the earth. :) its not a bad thing! just not terribly useful...

first

Ridley Scott is a hack director and GLADIATOR, with ALL of its mistakes in lighting, filming, action, and editing, is supremely overrated. Borderline worst film ever produced.

Concerted people like Wesley are forced to tell about how great Christian and USA is to show their loyalty

I will say fisher cz he is American...how narrow minded these people are

I love the detail that the video is 9:40 long, which almost is 10 mins, time control for a RAPID game of chess😂

Why these people include religion in game...how cheap is that....

Please stop going on about how great Wesley's personality is. He's seems nice enough but really not that interesting. Hans - now he has personality!
