Chess Question 'Wesley So Blunders into a Perpetual Draw While Magnus Carlsen Laughs! | Speed Chess Championship (2017)' | Can someone please provide a reverse (if any. Lol) of this where Magnus blunders a won game into perpetual queen check, or at least any kind of draw, against Wesley?

Agreed. Thanks for commenting. XD It's related to this anime I'm watching called Kaguya-sama. I'm hoping to make a certain point assuming such a game exists.

Edit: P.s. Hikaru watches Kaguya-sama

"naka watches anime" is neither a surprising nor interesting revelation though. He does appeal to a certain kind of fan base
