That was a SUPER close fight. Possibly could have gone either way based on damage, but these two were crazy-evenly matched and had lots of answers for each other's offence. I enjoyed this chess match between two masters. Both are very underrated here. I think because they are "new money". Recently legitted guys.

That was a SUPER close fight. Possibly could have gone either way based on damage, but these two were crazy-evenly matched and had lots of answers for each other's offence. I enjoyed this chess match between two masters. Both are very underrated here. I think because they are "new money". Recently legitted guys.
Have 9 points in celebration of this monumental achievement!
