Do you think Magnus Carlsen is in the top 50 - Page 2 - Chess and Board Game Strategy

1) Kasparov
2) Fischer
3) Tal
4) Carlsen
5) Morphy
6) Capablanca
7) Karpov
8) Nakamura
9) Anand
10) Lasker

I think Wei Yi will be on this list in 10 years.

I'm not sure how I'd arrange them, but Tal is definitely stronger than Carlsen.

Honestly google provides a pretty good list (Tal falls at #11 with the google results)

No way Naka is above Anand, especially when you didn't even include Kramnik LOL

Not only that, but how can Karpov be 7 on his list o0 ?
After 5 match between the 2 of them, kaspy is ahead 21 win over 19 for karpov, over like 100 games...

With such a tiny margin difference, how can you put down karpov so low.
Both player were about the same strength...

I believe the 7th place was given to Karpov as a punishment for his boring prophylactic style, not really for his strength that was indeed only a bit less than Kasparov's.
