bullet
A bullet is a small, metal projectile fired from a gun or firearm, typically designed to penetrate a target.
What do you think is better? Classical, rapid, or blitz?

Rapid (30 minutes or above)
It’s best for improving, and the most fun, whole still not taking forever.

I prefer classical. But I wouldn't go as far as to say that it is better than other types of chess. Whatever floats your boat.

How did you do 2 brilliant moves? The Max I have done is one. And what format was that?
What is classical? Haven’t heard of it
it's a game longer than 30 minutes
Ig classical is better if you have lots of free time

Daily.
Post #41 above.
With the custom function you can also play 2 hr games.
Lichess has a Classical rating system, here it seems like it is Daily or modern correspondence chess, rapid for anything longer than blitz and then bullet ect. So are you asking if Daily or Rapid or faster time control is better? And I'd say it’s what you want out of chess and your time that is the answer to that question.

OTB Classical time controls and correspondence chess are all I play. Bullet, blitz and speed chess have never really appealed to me much.

I play from 30-second HyperBullet Tournaments (Occasionally Bullet or HyperBullet) to 14-day long games (Daily).
