    Everyone talking about tantrums musn't be following chess. Carlsen is a good sport, he's proven he's the best a while back and nowadays plays nice with young talent & memes with GMs like Hikaru. I remember Anish Giri "throwing a tantrum" a few years back but there's not really any hotheads AFAIK.

      I've seen speculation that this is all kayfabe, and if it is it's pretty brilliant because nobody has talked about chess this much in years.
