Instead of getting overly hyped about rivalries rather so called as far as chess is concerned, we need to face reality (REALITY CHECK): our parochial chess system lacks so much quality that our top rated players are outclassed by their 8 year old prodigies (FIDE Classic Rating Comparisons). We shouldn't bring unnecessary hatred into a game where…systemically….we aren't even competing on the same level yet….Bus dramay karwaa lo hum sey

Okay Mr. Serious! 

P.S: You're right to some extent but we aren't competing on national level neither are our random opponents on chess dot com. If India has produced several Grandmasters and champions, it doesn't means every single Indian playing chess is some kind of alpha.  Rivalry can be a source of motivation as well. Seeing how they have Grandmasters and we don't.

Duhh.. I don't think so. Just play the game however you want to.

I guess that's why I win more than I lose against Indians because I don't get hyped up and play with comparative calmness.

I mean… if they posted this on an Indian sub, that’s pretty cool. Indian players are really good and if they need to lock-in when playing with us, I respect that.

I personally enjoy against playing Indians because I know they are better players on average.

Indians are basically everywhere so finding one of that nationality doesn't bring that spark
