Pogchamps is one of the biggest chess tournaments on Twitch, with some of the biggest names in streaming and beyond battling it out to win the title. The third iteration of the tournament has featured some major names in streaming, including xQc, MrBeast, Pokimane and Myth. However, Group C features two people famous for their careers outside of Twitch: Logic and Wilson. Their matchup was one of the most anticipated of the group stages, and Logic certainly didn\u2019t fail to entertain. The match, hosted by chess.com CCO Daniel Rensch and TSM chess Grandmaster Hikaru Nakamura, kicked off in spectacular fashion when Logic showed up wearing a yellow shirt, tie and blocky glasses, resembling Wilson\u2019s character Dwight Schrute from The Office. Rensch had received a text from Logic the night before the match warning him he would be wearing a special outfit, and \u2013 to Logic\u2019s credit \u2013 he delivered. Through laughter, Rensch displayed his coffee mug, which was painted to resemble Dwights\u2019s clothing. Unfortunately, Hikaru took a while to cotton on to what Logic was going for. \u201cHe looks like something out of the 1970\u2019s,\u201d he said. Logic\u2019s outfit was exceptional, but his chess play was even better, as he managed to trap Wilson\u2019s king to claim the win in game one. But Wilson was able to claw it back, winning the next two games to take the Bo3 tie 2-1. The imitation served as a perfect callback to the legendary The Office cold open from season 3 episode 21 \u201cProduct Recall\u201d where John Krasinski\u2019s character, Jim Halpert, plays a prank on Dwight by purchasing an exact replica of his outfit. Regardless of the result, Wilson and Logic remain joint-top of Group C, with Minecraft streamer Tubbo and fitness YouTuber MichelleKhare lagging behind. Both players will be desperate to stake their claim for the $20,000 jackpot as they face tough competition in the knockout stages.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Logic cosplays as Dwight from The Office in chess match vs Rainn Wilson NBC\/Instagram: LogicRapper Logic took a leaf out of Jim Halpert\u2019s book in his Twitch Pogchamps chess match against actor Rainn Wilson, as he showed up donning Dwight Schrute\u2019s signature clothing.
