When people play bullet, do they rely on time to win?

A mixture of good play and time.

They don’t play as well under time pressure, but GMs have practiced playing that well under time pressure.

Yes and no, for example I would lose to a better player regardless of the time control, but bullet gives me better odds. It's nothing, just fun chess.
