Chess Bullet

It was a classic fact. The most productive checkmate only occurs in bullet chess.
An example:

Be very familiar with the openings you want to play, including the oddball responses, and how to play endgames.
If you only worry about tactics, you'll quickly get strategically poor positions. It is a lot easier and faster to play reasonable moves in strategically superior position than in an inferior position.
Of course, you should be good tactically; I recommend Tactics Trainer. But that should not be the thrust of your planning. Good tactics flow from good positions.
I played a long series of 5-minute games with GM Walter Browne. He won almost all of them by playing reasonable, tactically-safe moves in boring positions, and winning on time.
I also played many 5-minute games with Steve Brandwein in his prime (late 1960's). Steve scored favorably against many of the strong players of the era, such as Larry Christiansen, Nick DeFirmian, Jeremy Silman, James Tarjan, and others. He quickly played reasonable, tactically-safe moves in boring positions. But I did it faster, and won a large majority of my games.

Yes it's correct. But there are some who play very well despite the little time to analyze. I think the good thing is that streamlines the mind.

Thank you for your interesting tips, I'll put into practice!!!

Since i dont study openings that part i disagree with.
Knowing your openings helps on bullet, and I congratulate you on not studying openings, you are Capablancaish and remind me of Portish and his quote. I consider myself a strong player but even when I was a beginner I couldnt stop studying openings lol, still I think I should focus more on practical skills.

Openings are one of the first things that people learn, atleast I saw the openings even before I knew anything about a tactic. Because if you wanna learn chess... the most common thing that you will get is openings. Openings can be useful to some extent. But overall, its better to concentrate on tactics. Deep study of openings is not required in bullet and certainly not at lower ratings.
I think the importance of strategy is too exaggerated by authors trying to sell their books. And it seems easy to write tomes about strategy compared to tactics because strategy abstract and vague(and such abstract and vague topics are best suited to write tomes about). I think that not many books are written about tactics and those books that are written about tactics seem simplistic because the tactics are already well-known. But, merely reading books won't make one get better at chess tactics, only training can do it. And I can say that chess.com tactic trainer has definitely helped me. The challenge is to find them in a game in a complicated scenario and choose the best tactic between various promising tactics.

Knowing the openings help to get to the middle game well there ....... then you start to play chess

Strange. You have 13k+ bullet games and yet ~1200 rated. So playing for fun. But you ask for tips how to get better. My tip is if you did not improve by now, you should stop with the bullet.
