bullet rounds are stupid
Sort:
You need no strategy in bullet round except to move your pieces as fast as you can I just don't see the point

It's because you're not good enough to use strategy and tactics that fast yet. Get better at longer games first, then faster games will make more sense to you.
OP is right, bullet is garbage and not really chess. Anyone who tells you otherwise is a pathetic ~1800 caliber player trying to compensate for the fact they never got anywhere in their chess career.

No, men don't play 1+0. by definition bullet chess is a variant of blitz chess, bullet chess games have less than three minutes per player, based on a 40 move game, although one minute per player chess can be excluded, common time controls for this setting is 2 minutes with one-second increment or 1 minute with a two-second increment.
By definition chess is a variant of checkers.
See, I can say silly things too.

1+2 and 2+1 is not real bullet. They should make a new category for trine controls like that because it's not blitz, but not quite bullet. Lightning I think it's called.
Bullet and lightening are the same thing, just different websites I think.
I hate bullet round

I recommend 1+0, because that's real bullet!
1/0 is a joke. 10 seconds per side is what I call real bullet.

blah...blah black sheep have you been playing any bullet,yes sir ,yes sir 1 million games.One for my mastery,one for my day and one for my little pawns who lays down the line.
The problem is 90% of games are decided by time from what I can see and that is why 1min chess is bad I think. Also I lose mostly when my opponent is less than 5seconds but just moves randomly. I lag out a little and have run down the clock while they move move move. It's not a test of chess skill at that point it's how fast you can click. Not saying you shouldn't enjoy but I have come to realise that it is trash if you consider it chess. 2.5min is okay as you still have time to win in the allocated time
