What is the Best Time Control?
Well, the most popular rapid time control is 15|10, although many people play 30|0 and 60|0. Every time control is good, and everyone has their preferences.
The most balanced time control is supposedly 10 or 15/10 minute. You have about enough time to think each move through, but maybe not for everyone. I must say though, below one minute, is going to be rushed. Every game. But if you know to move a long with time accurately, I won’t say anything. But you should train before if it’s a first timer for you. And the only two time controls which are basically moving your pawns up one square each, are ‘hyperbullet’ or ‘ultrabullet’. These are 30 or 15 seconds per player. Yeah. But then again, everyone has their thoughts, so feel free to type yours in the comments section below.
