It's more like: Marshall took ten fucking years to come up with the most diabolical possible attack to be sprung on an unaware Capablanca. There were no public hints of it coming, it was a complete blindside and novel attack.
Capablanca, with impeccable defensive play, neutered the attack, then tilted the board in his direction. His attack and mate relied on a pawn escaping confinement and becoming a queen to mate.
Who might see themselves as a pawn escaping confinement? Who might be Capablanca?
