I might be exaggerating a little bit but do you agree with me that a lot of low rated bullet players play a swindler quite a bit and just play moves to beat you on time? I have been trying to get to 300 in Bullet but I can’t figure out how to consistently beat other low rated players

2000s are better at swindling it gets worse ... If they go into your position to try a tactic like a fork try to see if it overextends or not(at your level it's probably an overextension)

Tbh though, books and videos are great but I think I learn best by just playing I mean if you look at my games I’ve definitely improved, I’m not trying to play super competitive, and saying that low rated players shouldn’t play time controlled only your credibility as a NATIONAL MASTER

That's true it depends on the person (usually it's best to start off by playing rapid your first chess game being a minute long is probably not good) but overall once you have a basic grasp of understanding it doesn't matter as long as you analyze play and improve time controls vary depending on the person:/ some improve at bullet others do not so if your lagging in improvement it might be helpful to analyze more than you usually do learn a new opening or play a different time control

You are also friends with Honchkrow while that might not mean much he also was the one that tried to ‘petition’ low rated players off of forums altogether

Did you read what I'm saying?

I didn't bother to look at your bullet games. I looked at your blitz games. 5 minute games.

In one game, your opponent attacked your queen by moving bishop to a6. You responded to an attack on your queen, by moving your KNIGHT to block the attack, where it can be eaten for free by a pawn! And you lost the game.

The fact that you could not see that a pawn would attack your knight on that square, means that you are in no position to talk about how much you have improved. You do these mistakes in MANY of your games. Not just "oh I didn't see the pawn".

Look--not everyone is fast. Not everyone can see that a piece is guarding another square. It takes TIME and PRACTICE to nurture and evolve this training. Just like any school student must do when learning some subject in class, and then having to do homework later. And no--you do NOT learn 'best' just by playing. That's like saying a kid learns best by just going to school and listening to a teacher, instead of doing independent exercises (e.g. homework) and then being tested on subjects to see if he has "retained" things he has been taught. You need to take time out for specific parts of the game. At your level, I would suggest working on basic tactics and learning sight of the board. Not everyone learns at the same speed, and some people have to repeatedly look at the same things over and over before they start to 'absorb' them.

But it's your choice. You can do whatever you want. This is the age of the internet, videos and information everywhere (even "acquired for free" from sources, in certain ways, when they are not free) happy.png Take it or leave it, your choice. Good luck.

speaking of knights, I had the whole variation planned, but then they blocked with the knight and I trapped the king with my knight, I was winning, but won faster.

It's short, and I know I missed the fork, I moved too fast my bad.

I agree with you that there is still a lot I can learn at my level, but using a poor analogy doesn’t really help your point.

@Falkentyne
YOU DIDNT LOOK AT MY BULLET GAMES!?
ShyGuy1511
How can you make a fair assumption if you didn’t even look at my arguement

#23 he’s right though, if you want to improve you should play longer time controls. Almost no one gets better by playing bullet, if you’re just doing it to have some fun, yeah sure, but if you really want to improve go with 15|10
xtreme2020
Well your bullet games are gonna be even worse than your blitz games so that actually helped you
ShyGuy1511
Also did you just defriend @Honchrow?

I dunno it depends on the person 🤷 he honestly should experiment with the time controls and figure it out himself his games are gonna be a mess at first anyway with or without classical chess or rapid though we don't talk about those people on perma tilt that play only blitz ... And complain once your at that point it doesn't help lol

@xtreme2020
I think that’s a fair point, but it is hard to transition from playing fast-timed to rapid, and to @Falkentyne’s point yes I did read your point.

I had friend that played 30+ min chess hung their queen and rage quit like every other game lol actually he got better once he started playing shorter time controls but that was only cause he stopped rage quiting so idk both time controls have the same issue and I recommended switching to rapid for others and having that work so idk it really depends

dude, it's bullet, you signed up for this when you clicked "play 1min". Why would you play 1min if you weren't going to use the clock as a weapon?

Yes, OP is complaining about people not playing perfect chess in a 1 minute time control and losing to garbage tricks. You clearly are not meant for bullet.

I’m not saying they have to be perfect, use more thought with their moves, and I promise I’m not trying to be another complainer online😄
