Magnus Carlsen, the Norwegian colossus and reigning World Champion in classical, rapid, and blitz chess alike, takes on Alexander Grischuk, one of the circuit’s most inventive minds and a feared specialist in faster formats. Grischuk is famously known for falling into severe time trouble in almost every game — even when given generous time controls. In 2019, this King’s Indian game features two players who never shy away from complications.
