I think 10 to 15 min is a good time to play chess for beginners
What game length do you think is best for beginners?
Well, 15|10 is best I think.
Enough time to actually think about your next move properly.
Without any increment at all you cant really play a good endgame.
Also its not excessively long yet either.
IM John Bartholomew recommends at least 15|10 minute games for chess skill improvement. The man knows what he is talking about.
15|10 is best.
It is the official rapid time control like for the Rapid World Championship.
Thanks to the increment you always have 10 seconds / move to win a winning position or draw a drawing position.
10 min, cuz' this will also help them to experience chess with different opponents and also teach them to think and act quickly
I cant pick 30|30 from my list of choices. Is that a diamond thing ?
It`s a custom time control. But 15|10 or 10min are some of the best choices
I like to play 15 | 10, or 10 | 0 if I don't have too much time. Anything lower than that and I notice a huge decrease in my performance.
I have tried mostly 10min because It looked standard but maybe I am mistaken.
