First Magnus, then Hiraku, and now Kramnik. Why does it seem like everyone is so disappointed with the World Champion? Are these matches truly lacking in depth, or do individuals with ratings below 2000, like myself, perceive them differently?
There are many matches like Anatoly Karpov vs. Viktor Korchnoi (1978) – very dull due to Karpov’s highly positional, methodical approach to chess, long, slow maneuvers rather than sharp attacks, leading to a less thrilling spectacle.
