Hans has put up wayyyyyy too many 100% perfect games, which just doesn't happen. Bobby Fisher at his best couldn't do it, Magnus couldn't do it, it just can't be done to that extent. Short 100% MAYBE, but a 40+ move game just isn't happening. Magnus knows pretty much every move from every game ever, and if he says Hans is playing like he's being fed moves, he's likely 100% correct. With Hans record, I am in full support of Magnus and hope Hans just gets perma banned from all events.

Anyone who gets busted cheating, even once, should be permanently banned. It is hard to catch and should not be tolerated at all. There is no excuse for it either.

Too toxic... You can't string together multiple perfect games, and he's done that much more recently than "as a kid". Hikaru has a great video about all his shady matches. He should never be allowed to compete again imo.

Pro games and tournaments happen online, so that should still carry the same weight as OTB. What part of him having perfect games is incorrect? He's even talked about his 45 move perfect game (in an Arabic accent for whatever reason). He's had 10 perfect games and 23 over 90% that I know of...
