Ultimate League's Breaking News - 11.10.2023:
Current tours are ended..BIG thanks and congratulations to all book authors!
Everest Everest Everest..managed to be Winner..great performance indeed!
Also good points come by Mr Angel's books: CachoSCCT 2nd, Pimienta 3rd
Actually in this Ultimate League: all of the Top books performed not so bad...
Btw, this time DON Hercules could not be as Champion, but it's quite normal..
it seems via NNUE assistance...vs current Top players...situation is different..
However, in latest organized tourneys, there are many ranks via participants...
So you can appreciate any standing...which you like more..it's your choice !)
Btw, if comparing Elo improvement points over Zaytsev, which played: BN X
We will see about 20 Elo diff. (in 6 months in favor for Everest 300923 book)
In short, I'd like to point out that the strongest opening theory is still not dead!
Where I can't say same words for Stockfish's Elo improvements..e.g via short
Strong openings (Balsa suite) no much Elo difference since many months!
Exception, in case of weak openings..we may see some SF improvements!
Ultimate League Champion
EVEREST - Congratulations to Ivan Alekseev!

Btw, I tested Everest book as NON-NNUE too (via Cfish 030820)
So now we can compare books strength (NNNE vs NON-NNUE)
To be more clear,
Cfish 030920 NON-NNUE is played via Everest 300923 book too,
Where all Everest NON-NN's opponents used Raunfish SC engine,
So under current conditions, we see about 80 Elo difference..
Frankly not bad...Btw, if we are going to compare with older
Everest NON-NNUE (in BNX tour): the Elo difference is about 63
