According to reports, popular streamers TpaBoMaH, OverDrive, and Adekvat are rumored to be participating in a chess tournament for streamers. The event is also expected to feature prominent chess grandmaster Jan Nepomniachtchi.
Sources suggest that other notable grandmasters, Daniil Dubov and Andrei Esipenko, might also be involved in the tournament, potentially as mentors for the streamer participants. Further details about the competition are still under wraps.
It’s worth noting that Chess.com previously organized a series of streamer chess tournaments called PogChamps from 2020 to 2023. These events included tournaments for Russian-speaking content creators, with participants like NS, Cake, finargot, and Drainys.
