Day four of the Americas was a heck of a day! Renato Terry displayed incredible nerves by surprising Wesley So when he had to score to take the match to Armageddon. Wesley tanked for a bit, shivered, and didn’t collapse. Meanwhile, it was in Armageddon that Andrew punched his ticket against Jose Martinez to meet with… Wesley So! Shots from the studio, emotions, shouting commentators, this is Armageddon for you, live from Berlin!

The Armageddon Championship Series is a season of high-intensity, ultra-fast gameplay. The world’s greatest chess players compete under excruciating time pressure, with a real-time heartbeat and calories-burned data points displayed alongside breakneck moves and cutting analysis, all broadcast live from Berlin.
