Lichess Antichess World Championship 20214th Edition - Year 2021The 4th edition of Lichess Antichess World Championship is organized by Odmwnd and Shiaxou. All games are rated and have 2+5 (2 minutes with 5 seconds increment per move) time control. The championship consists of three stages: Qualification (Swiss), Candidates (two round-robin), and Final Four. It was originally intended that the world champion PepsiNGaming, as well as the runner-up GrohochetGrom, be directly included in the 12 candidates. However, PepsiNGaming decided not to participate this year. Thus, 74 registred players started the cycle from the Qualification in the 8-round Swiss tournament. Then we have 12 candidates that competed in 2 Round Robin tournaments, where after some drama in the last round we got 4 semifinalist.

The 3rd Place Match
The semifinals
The CandidatesThe Candidates was two Round Robins with 6 players each for 2x2 places in semifinals.
The most interesting was in Pool A, where in the last game ChangeOpening won a drawing endgame and thus tied with Arimakat in the number of points, and passed on thanks to a better placement in the qualifications.
