Aronian's attack is crushing.
1. d2d4  1... d7d5  2. g1f3  2... c8f5  3. c2c4  3... e7e6  4. b1c3  4... g8f6  5. f3h4  5... f5g6  6. d1b3  6... b8c6 A very fresh position arose where Aronian tries to  calm down the aggressive black pieces. 7. c4d5  7... e6d5  8. e2e3  8... f8b4  9. h4g6  9... h7g6  10. c1d2  10... e8g8  11. f1d3  11... f8e8  12. e1g1 Aronian completed his development and it  is Artemiev's turn to make an important decision. 12... b4c3 The  Russian GM decided to play in the spirit of the Chebanenko line, for a  knight blockade. 13. d2c3  13... a8b8  14. a1e1 White's play is obvious and easy. He prepares the  opening of the game and the e3-e4 break. 14... g6g5 Artemiev tries to  challenge the pawns before they become too dangerous. 15. f2f3  15... d8d6  16. a2a3  16... g5g4 This move is essential part of Black's plan. 17. b3d1  17... g4f3  18. f1f3 Artemiev managed to remove White's important f3 pawn and thus  softened the e4 square. This spot can be an ideal place for both the black knights, and the rooks can benefit too. As usual, though, everything comes at a price and Black now needs to watch out for the direct White attack  along the f-file and on the kingside. 18... e8e6  19. d3f5  19... e6e7 A pity. 20. e1f1  20... b8e8  21. d1e1  21... f6e4
