It has been, and it always will be, Fisher. Even though he has become a nut since winning the championship. He’s one of the few who can legitimately claim to be the best of all time.
Karpov
If GM Eugene O. Torre of The Philippines had really broken in Turin – the Chess Olympiad-record of most matches played – then, he is my ChessSuperman!
Topalov !
Kasparov. Fischer? No way. He is overrated.
It is always difficult to say definitely. Kasparov was dominating about 20 years. Even though he does not play actively, I will vote for him.
Levon Aronian. He is not only a tremendous player, but one of the nicest guys to ever play the game.
I like players who take controlled risks.
I am not a fan of the extreme. So Tal was too risky and Capablanca always played it safe.
I prefer Alekhine, Fischer and today from the list Topalov and Anand.

Kasparov.
I think it should be Tal. His tactical play was just amazing, just like Superman.
I think Fisher for the best understanding of chess games and Karpov for winning so much tournaments.
Capablanca, Alekhine, Kasparov, Fischer.
The best ones in history

Its gotta be Fisher. He played against more all-time greats than anybody playing today. He didn’t use a computer like Kasparov does, either!
amongst todays ACTIVE top players i like Peter Svidler most, followed by – don’t beat me – Vladimir Kramnik.
PS: please write Robert James FiSCHer … he get’s very angry to anyone spelling his name the wrong, the engliSH way … (i know for sure!)
Among those active, Topalov

I think it shud be Fischer and Capablanca…The big-K’s wud have all benefited from the home-brewed preparations of the vast army of Soviet seconds (most notably Efim Geller)…I dont think they can hold a candle to the ol’ school guyz 🙂
anatoly karpov
His moves are hard to understand and by the time the reasons for his moves start to show, his opponents would find themselves in trouble that is hard to salvage.
He is also known for his strong middle-game play and those who managed to survive through the middle game has to survive the gruelling end game, which he has always been good at.
To sum up, it is not easy to win against karpov.
