Hey everybody in AC land! I was just thinkin' about why chess players don't have nicknames or "gamertags" like Ninja or Luciid and instead just use their regular names? It's seems a little stiff, ya kno? I thought of names that I think would go well with some chess players. Let me know what y'all think.

Magnus "K1ng Magnus" Carlsen

Hikaru "33 Br3ak n3ck" Nakamura

Fabiano "Fabu10us" Caruana

Alireza "Pr1nc3" Firouzja

Javokhir "Pr0digii" Sindarov

Anish "T3ctici0n" Giri

Wesley "Magsanay" So

Yi "Dyn1sty" Wei

Viswanathan "W1SH" Anand

So instead of introducing players by just their name, the announcers could yell out, "And now, coming to the arena.....we have Magnus "KIIIIIIIIING MAGNUS" Carlsen!!!!!!!" I think that would be really neat!! These are some suggestions, it's all I can think of for now. if anyone knows the tournament organizers, let them know about this idea. Pls give me credit tho!!
