I've had to lose many thousands of chess games over the past 50 years to reach 2350+.
Indeed I never felt like I am getting any better by playing blitz games it's more for fun and determining how quick of a thinker you are I definitely lost some won games just, because it took me too long to think of a good move throw mid game and I just run out of time being up a queen or something similar.
