Check it out. I saw someone say it's a live-action sports anime and while I would never watch an anime I assume that's an accurate description. You'd be shocked how exciting they can make chess look in this show.

    It's only true for many Soviet players because historically, they're simply better chess players. I'm saying that for Americans to have a chance against Soviets, they needed to play inaccuracies and create wilder positions. I'm not saying Americans are actually more creative in chess, but rather that they need to play less solid moves to have a chance, which is pretty accurately shown in the show.
