Hikaru has completely lost his mind 

Sorry chessbrah, but Hikaru exposed you. He knows you and Eric feel like he took everything from you. But news flash Chessbrah, the world belongs to the strong, and NOBODY is stronger than the Sensei himself, GM Hikaru Nakamura. You are on the wrong side of history. You and your minions wont be able to bully Hikaru and the Hikaruites any longer. Next year, when Hikaru enters his prime, he will return and crush stinky-reza fart-rouzja. It will be like the phoenix rising from the ashes. Stay salty chessbrah, your tears only fuel the indominable samurai spirit HAHAHA L

Alireza literally made him care

The only person working to cancel Hikaru Nakamura is Hikaru Nakamura.

" I would have won if i was 16 years younger " Alireza would have been 4 so that's true, that was hilarious 😂

Hikaru made no sense saying Alireza wasn’t tired cause he was playing well. The whole point of the break was that he wouldn’t be as tired😂

Ahhh the Classic 15th annual Hikaru Nakamura sportsmanship award... first handed out by Benjamin Finegold in 2015 😅

Hikaru has always been a bad loser and a hypocrite. There's nothing new here.

According to Ben Finegold, the only award Boris Spassky has never won is the Hikaru Nakamura Sportmanship award.

Been a fan of chessbrah for about a decade now. Aman has been nothing but professional on every chesscom stream in relation to Hikaru despite their differences. Still Hikaru shows his poor character and manages to be more and more delusional. How can he act like a victim when he's been the perpetrator all these years is beyond me. Hopefully he matures

he is still trying to cancel you guys and go for your livelihoods, essentially telling chesscom to never employ you again if they want an interview from him. what a manchild

Every time I start to think Hikaru is an alright guy, he Hikarus again. Last time was his dismissive, arrogant attitude in the team chess battles, then he sorta rehabbed his image in my mind during the Candidates. Now, here he goes again. I don't know him personally, but he really comes across as a jerk.

Hikaru is still upset that he got out wrestled by Eric lmao

I've followed Nakamura since he was a little boy on ICC in 2002. He's always been like this. If things dont go his way, we see who he truly is.

Good to see Hikaru going back to the good old salty bitter Hikii. Idk how people see this behaviour and still idolise him.

Narcissists cannot handle losing. Hikaru is the biggest narcissist in the top GMs by far.

Hikaru is just mad he's forever stuck behind Magnus

Every couple months, Hikaru reminds me to root against him when he plays

There's a reason MOST of elite chess players DON'T LIKE HIM!

Interesting how history has been rewritten in Hikaru's mind. Obviously hes just mad about losing and going on a typical rant, but from my memory it was hikaru and chessbae, who put 2 strikes on the chessbrah channel, not the other way around

Hikaru has the emotional intelligence of a drunk 2 year old

People who've been playing chess way before covid know who Hikaru really is. As Eric once said, everyone has an Hikaru story. I know he's very talented but I wish someone more deserving had benefited the most from the boom.

Hikaru becomes more insufferable every time he opens his mouth

but he literally doesn't care guys

Hikaru going into his own Kramnik arc....

Hikaru is such an interesting mind. So insanely good at a game like chess, but underneath is just a literal child. Unique.

During the bullet stream people were both saying that you were biased for Hikaru and that you were biased towards Alireza. If both sides thinking you are biased towards the other then you probably are in the perfect spot between the two.

Hikaru: “ Who TF do you think you are?” Alireza on X : “ Bullet god”😂

Hikaru the type of guy to fake his own death and write a suicide note blaming people who held him accountable for his assholeness.

Let me say this: I got banned on chess subreddit 4 months ago for expressing my view about what a joke Hikaru is

Hikaru is alot more similar to Kramnik than he realizes

He could have argued respectfully. Him saying "who the tf do you think you are" was so rude. He also called him and his family crazy and made fun of his candidates performance just to downplay his win. Such a sore loser.

"I literally don't even care" -Hiki while he is crying

Remember when Hikaru lost the streamer award to Levi? "You look at Levi, you look at Botez, or people of that sort, they're never gonna win anything when it comes to chess". Hikaru's a sweetheart.

Imaging Hikaru when he is the same age as Kramnik. He will be lashing out at anything that moves.

Everyone has a Hikaru story

Hikaru really is pathetic.

At this point the whole chess community should make a public announcement that nobody gives a damn if Hikaru talks sh*t about other people or behaving toxic, this is just an unnecessary stress for a ton of people who is involved in any way.

Hikaru should publicly apologize to the Chessbrah's and Aman specifically, but I wouldn't hold my breath on that.

Hikaru must be drinking the same shit kramnick is into these days.

Hikaru switching between Id, ego and superego at the same time

It was very unfair to Alireza (or any opponent of Hikaru) to play against Hikaru on the same day. Alireza had to play 5 brutal rounds which was too much. Him asking for a longer break was fair. Ideally his match against Hikaru should have been played the next day.

Aman is a true professional and the Chessbrahs don't get the respect they deserve for being the OG chess streamers. Don't let Hikaru bully you guys, and Aman keep doing what you're doing because you're one of the best commentators out there.

"What year is it?" "Hikaru acted like a sperg and berated his opponent who crushed him" "Do you have any idea how little that narrows it down?"

Differences between a professional and a child.

How could commentary effect Hikaru's game? Does he hear the commentary while playing? Or does he just feel the negative waves?

Crazy, how low can this guy sink?

Now I understand why Magnus always roots against Hikaru.

Such a fake person. Saying "who tf do you think you are?" is so rude.

The hikaru nakamura sportsmanship award. It has been a while since i've heard this classic 😂😂😂

Hikaru might be a great chess player, but his behaviors have always comes across as that of a terrible human being..... And that's how sadly most of us would remember him

Alireza even adopting Hikaru was a real possibility. I wanted to give Hikaru a benefit of a doubt that he was complaining about laggs or buggs or something but i didn’t thought he was that scared of getting adopted.

Hikaru has been insulated from the outside world through chess and his step-dad for years. It wasnt really real adult behavior from hikaru.

One of the most incredible temper tantrums I've ever seen!

I love that in the 2021 BCC quarters interview hikaru says "Alireza is the most dangerous player... assuming he gets through" prophetic

Why couldn't someone who is a better human being been gifted with Hikaru's talent instead of him, life isn't fair.

I really like Hikaru but i've never actually seen him lose gracefully.

This explained a lot to me…I’ve started watching lots of chess in the last six months and mostly I find the main streamers informative and enjoyable. For some reason I just can’t stand Hikaru - it’s like he’s always trying to be nice but he’s not really. He’s a false personality and will eventually be exposed

Gotham chess bias towards Hikaru is apparent when he speaks about anything regardless of what he is doing if its big in the chess world but will not say a word about the whole Hikaru thing and ignore like its not even happening. What a joke.

Really did confuse me when he said that. I know he’s had a problem with Eric but never heard a thing out of his mouth about you. And I knew he’d done multiple interviews with y. So strange.

Welcome back everyone! Today we'll be talking about how I melted down at the bullet championship.

That David August Boiler Room set is insane.

Alireza crushed Hikaru so hard that he cried out in insult!!!

If Alireza was lying about being tired, what would the 20 minute break even do for him?

Hikaru already lost me in the time of the Hans case. You don't need to have maxed out empathy to see that he has a really big ego which becomes more and more destructive. What a shame.

Hikaru is a diva protected by the structures of the chess hierarchy

I lost all respect for hikaru, when a fellow LoL streamer, Tyler1 started to grind chess and improve at the game. Hikaru dissed Tyler1 and he said he would plateau at 1200. With Tyler1 now impressively rated at 1900, Hikaru backed down and essentially said it was easier to rank up in chess than it was then. Which is true, but it feels wrong to dismiss tyler1’s efforts as such.

It's a bit sad to hear those comments from hikaru but nontheless congrats to alireza!

"Hikaru has completely lost his mind" this is poetic because Hikaru said exactly same thing about Kramnik. :D

We are about to enter another drama era.

Hikaru: telling the truth is trying to cancel me bro should be a politician for sure

I got into chess at the end of 2020, and I was blown away by Hikaru as a phenomenon. An elite player who streams regularly and is eloquent, Hikaru is a joy to watch for a chess fan. But then I slowly find out more things about him, his tweet about being the one who has to stop Magnus, insulting John Bartholomew, cursing other GMs, fighting Eric, etc. I give Hikaru the benefit of the doubt, and keep on following him. And then the incident with you guys, and he also tried to cause beef with Fabi and Christian when reacting to their podcast, promoting a crypto gambling site, and now this. Time and time again, Hikaru provides plenty of examples of him being immature, vain, and manipulative. I hope that people remember these things.

Ahh yes, for all that publicity coaching how to fake it, Hikaru shows the world his true colors yet again. Props to Aman for being gentlemanly.

I thought someone matures after Marriage

Full vod is also somewhere on the Reddit bcc posts if you want to see the whole match. Starts at around 5 hours in.

Thankfully we have Magnus to keep him in his place

I think it’s insane that Chessbrah is still under 1 million yet Hikaru is 2 or 3 million subs (can’t remember) he does come across as a baby sometimes, I appreciate his insane chess ability and he does have a decent sense of humor…just imagine if he had Levy’s personality to go along with the chess. 😮

Hikaru starting to use that Kramnik logic…

i used to always support hikaru against magnus cause imma underdog kinda guy, but im glad magnus is the goat now and humbles him. I cant even imagine how hikaru would act if he was in magnus' shoes.

Honestly, I've been following both Hikaru and Chessbrahs for a long time, I know that Chessbrahs channel, at one point was almost close to getting closed because of the strikes from Hikaru’s team. I don't know how the rivalry began but I never cared much about these and followed them for the love of chess and their content creation. But in BCC against Alireza, even though the game was delayed by Alireza, Hikaru chose to ignore it and started the match. When he was consecutively losing the matches, he started throwing tantrums about how the delay affected him and how could Alireza delay the match, any professional player, be it Magnus or Nihal or Danya, would never blame their losses in this manner, especially because Hikaru wouldn't have complained this had he won those matches. He later accepted the fact that he is getting older and his bullet openings are dubious against 2700 players like Alireza. He even said that he’d change the strategy in game 2, but Alireza with his bullet strength prevailed in the end by fair means. The fact that Hikaru lost his cool just because he was losing the games was so unsportsmanship-like. Him throwing the shade at Aman after the match shocked me, just because you have an audience who agrees on everything you say doesn't mean that you can disrespect them like that. I've watched a clip of their Zoom recording and while he was losing cool and using F word against Alireza, Alireza kept calm like a gentleman. I’m sorry for any Hikaru fans who might get upset with this, but this is what I’ve observed. I like Hikaru, his style of games, his capabilities, and they way he carries himself during OTB tournaments, but this is not sportsmanship behaviour.

What I love about the Hikaru Nakamura Sportsmanship Award™ is that unlike other most other awards that exist, the Hikaru Nakamura Sportsmanship Award™ is only ever won by Hikaru, and all the other chess youtubers just take turns giving it to him

Watched the stream, I'd hardly call what he did 'losing his mind'. He was irritated even before the match began and that snowballed into what happened. Of course, not an ideal reaction, but what's life without some salt :)

bro talked for 28 mins and i still dont know what exactly happened

People who follow chess for a long time very much know who Hikaru really is. I don't really get how this guy got so big. Shows that people don't really care about character.

Maybe being him for halloween was the breaking point haha.

The only resolution I see is in a chessbrah v hikaru chess boxing match. Make it happen.

Hikky Literally doesn't care. Literally 🙄🙄🙄

Just imagine what happens when he becomes as old as Kramnik? 😂😂

It's easy to be classy when things are going your way, but someone actually deserves respect if they can handle it with dignity when things don't go their way. And if you get heated and say some mean things, go back and apologize. The powerful should especially be careful when they are throwing shade at the weak. With great power comes great responsibility. Appreciate your professionalism, Aman, and wish you all the best in your chess career. All the best to Hikaru too; he's so talented and accomplished; hopefully he can have a mindset to improve, come back stronger and to build others up.

This gon be goooood

I love the outro song. What the name?

Hikaru is always like that, when he lose, he blame everyone, when he wins he has done a good job, he has to accept that he is not the best

Loosing is actually mental exhaustment in chess.. But i think magnus is very calm and doesn't want to overreact if he loses.. He also loses to nodirbek and pragg twice or thrice in recent tournaments.. Frustration is always going to happen but he handled it nicely..

Nakamura has always been a spoiled brat

For a person whose main job is a “streamer”, he seems awfully insecure and complains a lot about his performance when it comes to chess. It almost sounds like his main job is a professional chess player 🤔

Facts, looking forward to seeing your next commentary video in the tournament.

Being unbiased is really hard nowadays. Even corporations are supposd to be our best friends now. Your professionalism is impressive and should be lauded.

Guess who just un-subbed Hikaru and subbed chessbruh?

Thanks for making this video! For reference - make sure to include the clips in the video in the futute - adds a lot to credibility, especially for those who didn’t fully follow the situation.

Not just this but he called Alireza a "little bitch". This guy is peoples role model? Like seriously? Everytime I feel Hikaru can't go any cheaper, he proves me wrong.

Is just like The Clash of Claims drama. What is going on?
