Magnus Carlsen Live Stream | Alireza Firouzja Dominated Lichess Bullet Titled Arena 2020

GM Alireza Firouzja won the August Lichess Bullet Arena by a big margin yesterday, 29 points. He took the lead after about 25 minutes of play, 10 minutes later he was up 15 pts, and by the halfway point of the tournament he was up 40. The standard video info-graphic we release tells the tale of his incredible surge to blow right past his competitors.

Finishing in second was GM Daniel Naroditsky, who dominated second place as much as Alireza dominated first. He finished 33 points ahead of GM Andrew Tang in Third. He was also the only player that seemed able to slow down Firouzja at all, winning 3 of their 5 games in this event. Zaven Andriasian and Sergei Zhigalko filled the rest of the prize spots in 4th and 5th respectively.

The 6th place finisher probably deserves to be mentioned as he has something of a following on Lichess. GM Magnus Carlsen from Norway, a previous Titled Arena winner had, by his own sky-high standards, a rough day.
