Review the game

This event paid homage to chess legends like Garry Kasparov and Viswanathan Anand. Kasparov’s historic matches against the world and his iconic battle with IBM’s Deep Blue set the stage for blending technology and chess. Meanwhile, Anand’s record-setting game against 60K+ opponents showed the potential for large-scale participation. The Hans Niemann vs. You event continued this legacy by exploring new frontiers in collaborative strategy and AI integration.
