what I love is this demonstrates a concept I love in gaming. The best players still lose sometimes even against "lesser" (for lacknof a better term) opponents, and that's just part of the game. You're riding chaos to the finish line, anything can happen.

Eric you are such a humble and down to earth person. Even after beating Magnus Carlsen, you mentioned about his cellphone lag.

Eric:*beats magnus carlson* Also eric:"Good start."

Great lesson here: if you disregard who you're playing, you can trust your own abilities and not get phased, regardless who is in front of you. If Eric knew who he was playing, he would have lost.

Congrats Eric!! Absolute legend.

actually i know that cuz i saw agadmator talking about it ..... good job ... play by teaching really brighten u up ... hope u be a gm

Congratulations IM Eric Rosen! I posted a comment on Agadmator's channel to this effect as well because he had asked whether it's an advantage for Magnus to play anonymously or a handicap? My point was this: had he played under DrDrunkenstein perhaps, as you said in this video, you'd have been nervous and not as focussed on the game. I dubbed this psychological element "The Magnus Effect" and I'm sure almost any player would be somewhat affected by this. Is it an advantage for Magnus? If his goal is to win LiChess tournaments of course he should use DrDrunkenstein and make his presence known and take full advantage of "The Magnus Effect". But is this his goal? ... First, he's known to win online tournaments and immediately donate the winnings back, so he clearly isn't interested in prize money. My feeling is his real goal is this: entering these tournaments anonymously might present the only opportunity to play against opponents whose play isn't suffering under "The Magnus Effect"! Maybe the only truly objective test of his skill he can get against human players on a regular basis!! This is likely more valuable to him than winning LiChess tournaments which, as world #1 ranked and reigning World Champion should be the surest bet any time he enters. Maybe he was in a van on mobile with lag issues. Maybe you weren't hindered by "The Magnus Effect". But so what? You managed to not only play, but defeat the world champion! And even if he lost, at least he got to play you at your most focussed. Awesome result, congratulations.

@yoyokojo651

Sure, Carlsen Effect, or Magnus Effect... World Champion Effect for the more general case perhaps? Since Chess doesn't involve rotating objects moving through a fluid I'm not sure there'll be too much confusion though... ;-) I suppose if Chess did have curve-balls, or something involving throwing rotating objects, more people who don't understand Chess would be willing to consider it a sport though... And who knows, maybe dodgeball-chess or frisbee-chess will be the next big thing! Then if you play that against world champion Magnus Carlsen, you'd have the Double Magnus effect!!
