ok cool
beginners play rapid, not bullet!
10|0 is the best time control for beginners imo. it allows them plenty of time to calculate themselves while also teaching them how to play under time pressure

It’s what I use

cool,but I'm playing blitz
Also OP: *Plays Blitz as a beginner*
What I meant was that when beginners start playing well in rapid, they will be able to think about their moves, and they will be able to play well in blitz, to think about their moves.
I'm so sick of running out of time in 10|0 just because I'm trying to avoid blundering. It's like I have to choose between blunders and flagging and I just hate it. I am going to just play 15|10 for now. If chess.com cared they'd listen to people and give us 10|5.

you can create your own challenge for 10/5, but few people will accept this challenge.

Yeah I do 10|2 every week in a tournament with friends and I've never gotten flagged once.
Beginners!This is for you.Once you start playing chess for the first time, choose the best control.Don't play for a minute, especially for 30 seconds.You won't learn how to play it.You will beat without thinking about the moves, and try to win in time.This is wrong!You need to play rapid for 10-20 minutes.It is better to subscribe everywhere.Solve puzzles as much as you want, analyze the games.Read chess books and watch instructional videos.In about 21 days, you'll be playing better.
