Btw, he's a very good chess tutor (intermediate level). I recommend his videos for all chess fans.

Agreed, but I think the Armenian guy looks more Semitic than Hadouken, especially the lips.

Yes, the Armenian is indeed more Mesopotamian/southern shifted. Looks more Iranian, but I don't know...

Upper lip being significantly thinner than the bottom lip is a very semitic thing imo

I'd say he passes better as a Semite like Assyrian or Jewish rather than Iranian since they basically lack Semitic features for the most part.

Unless if you abide to the bible or the far-right ideology/Nazism, there's really no such thing as a 'Semitic race'. It's pretty much a term invented by religion, and as atheists the term should be completely inapplicable. Racial anthropologists never used "Semitic", and instead coined a race with similar features as Armenoid or Assyroid/Orientalid race. Besides, Iranians and Armenians can have "Semitic" features as well, with bigger lower lips and the likes. These characteristics aren't restricted to the people who speak the same language family, such as Jews and Assyrians.

He passes as an Assyrian from Iran. He more so looks Azerbaijani or northwest Iranian, right on the border of upper Mesopotamia.

P.S. And yes, I have "Semitic" on my banner. Lol. But I just wanted something to showcase the fact that I am from the Middle East. So it seems like "Semitic" was close. They should really create "Mesopotamian" or "Levantine", no? :p

Well said. Yeah, wished that Loki created both of them for us.
