I think we should type the Chess World Champions, but I know very little about them, would you help me?

Kasparov looks Ni-ENTj to me
Capablanca: SEE?
Topalov: SLE?
Anand and Kramnik: alpha NT?

THEY'RE CLEARLY FEELERS MAN!
Nah, I would generally agree with those typings.![]()
Actually, in all seriousness, some else said here on another thread, that a couple of the top chessmasters are actually SEE. More of a Se control thing, conquering style.
I question how much logic is necessarily needed for chess. Analyzing mid-game is of course important, after early exchanges, and as positions become increasingly complex, but most of the games are still based upon opening theory, long-term strategy, ie. queenside/kingside attack/defense, Dragon Sicilian, French Defense, etc. Logic is important, and I believe that's why the vast majority of grandmasters are a Thinking type, but it's not out of the question for there to be several Feelers who can grasp the strategy of the game through study and preparation.
ya, Kasparov is LIE. I think chameleon has opinions on all these people, he plays chess a lot.
