no online chess counts to get a title and by reaching 2000 you dont get a title
Does 3Check count?
3-check does not do anything for gaining a title, only standard chess works, and I think some of the requirements require OTB games to complete. Nevertheless, becoming a proficient 3-check player and reaching 2000 elo can put you on the leaderboard, and can bring fame to your chess.com account (3-check is currently a lot less competitve than standard chess, so it will take a lot less effort to reach the leaderboard and 2000 elo is considered being considered a master compared to 3000 elo for regular chess)
So I was wondering that if you get 2000 elo in 3Check do you get a GM title? Or is it only the standard chess that counts?
Only FIDE rating counts after you connect your FIDE account or smth

FIDE gives out "arena" titles for online play and this is probably what the OP is thinking of. e.g. Arena grandmaster needs an elo of 2000.
But you don't get this title automatically from getting 2000 elo on chess.com.
You need to play in FIDE's online arena, and you need to pay for it.
It's widely seen as a money-making exploit of people with no hope of becoming even a candidate master in "real" titles. A more sympathetic justification is that it can be something tangible for us lower-rated players to work for. Telling someone your elo is not going to mean a lot to them (even to other chess players...they need to ask which platform and when to get some idea of your playing strength)...a title, even a non-professional one, is a bit more concrete.
