Really good/great. I played chess competitively as a kid, played in a bunch of tournaments, actually won a couple of them too, so seeing the tournament aspect of it in action like this was kinda cool. I'm impressed with how well made this was and how intense some of the games were, which feels like an odd thing to say about chess. The backstory and build up to the last few episodes was so good too. The final episode and how it all tied together was pretty much perfect.
Very enjoyable series and I look forward to whatever Scott Frank does next. This and Godless have been great limited series.
