Make the position as complex as possible. You should try very complicated attacking openings. Opponent will think harder and eventually lose the game just like you lost to me
Any tips for playing better in blitz?
Sort:
spotting instantaneous tactics and playing at a good pace so you dont choke in the end!
Practice
Just make it simple
Exchange french and london are good openings

It does not strictly need to be premove.I mean like use 1 to 2 second per moves and stop at important moments where you sense there is some tactical play possible.
not nessecarily Tactical play; but better to say when you need to plan what is gonna happen (strategically)

With no increment, you have to play quickly. You cannot fall below 10-15 seconds on the clock behind your opponent. Always look for your opponents best/candidate moves which should include 3-4. Using the checklist (Checks Captures and attacks) will help tremendously, both for spotting tactics for yourself and trying to find the best move for your opponent. Try to calculate at least 2-3 moves ahead for all the candidate moves. Always think on your opponent's time. As for openings in blitz, I play the French so I can pretty much premove the first few moves, but I'm guessing not many people here like the French. You can usually take free stuff as long as u don't see an immediate refutation. You can play risky with dubious openings and complex positions but I wouldn't recommend it if you are unable to calculate fast and see through the mess quickly. Especially around the 1700-1800 level, even in 3 mins, if u give them a big enough advantage, they can and will beat you. Personally I think you should play a solid opening (like the french or the caro. I play a reverse french with White with e3) and avoid complications. Just play fast lol.
falling below isn't actually a matter
once in a bullet game I won my >2500 IM opponent when I had 22 seconds and he had 35 seconds
Play slower games. This gives you the time to think that you won't get in blitz.
I am currently trying this out to get out of the cycle my blitz rating is in
Alternatively, you can play games with increment, such as 3+2 or 5+5 instead of 3+0 and 5+0.

He used to be 2k in rapid, he needs to think faster is all
Oh, okay. Then, I think you should play with increment. I advise you not to play 3+0 as that is effectively bullet
Play 3|2 lol
Props to @mrdubious lots of true statemrnts and good advice

Well, boss, what you really need to do when you are streaming and playing bullet is to deliver a monologue instead of a dialog. You spend a lot of focus during your streams reading the chat and responding to people. You cannot possibly have the focus you need to do both...so spend a lot less time seeing what the chat world is doing, but maintain your contact with your viewers by simply thinking out loud. That's my 2 cents, anyway!
