If you can challenge any titled player (living or dead) in a chess match, who would it be?

@Rustedlongsword Well, if you just want to chat with some chess master like Gothamchess instead of playing against them, then that's okay too.

@PrinceSkywalker, why do you think he is boring?

I see

that's just one 2200 fide

@Prince_Skywalker I have to agree with you Gothamchess does look like a nerd.

@Prince_Skywalker How do you feel about Hikaru?

He is another popular streamer besides Gothamchess.

Damn now that's alot of Players

Definetly Magnus Carlsen or Gary Kasparov

Nicholas Rosenthal ( @RoseyChess ) , Volen Dyulgerov ( @Witty_Alien ) and Magnus Carlsen ( im sure u know his account)

If it's OTB:

World champion: Vishy Anand

Male player: Fabiano Caruana

Female player: Lei Tingjie

Online: Magnus

Online I would play the best player possible, but OTB I prefer others, because Magnus would maybe show up late, crush me and just leave. The others I mentioned are great players as well and they seem nice enough to talk to me after the game and maybe give some tips or answer some questions

Akiba Rubenstein

His play was Chess as art!

@onlyC6 that is some strategic planning you have there. I would probably do the same thing as well.

@CavanPawn Akiba Rubenstein is another great chess player to challenge against. He was considered one of the most legendary chess players to never have become a World Chess Champion. He should have because his positional play often squeezed his opponents and his endgame tactics pulverized them as well.

Otherwise, Rubenstein was one of the top 5 best endgame players in chess history.

@NewCapablancaSweden I agree with you. Hikaru is not as much of a nerd as Levy.
