The fact that you're better at blitz than someone does mean you're better at longer games but I always find accounts like that suspicious. The other day I played a guy rated 2000+ rapid and under 1400 blitz. I absolutely crushed him. There's no way that guy was a legit 2000. Either that account is used by multiple people or he's a part time cheater and I just got lucky and got one of his honest games. Maybe something similar is going on with this guy too.
How is this possible???

Or... Maybe he can't think fast enough for blitz

The guy I just played is X. Rapid and X blitz:

and he gave me a good game in rapid before he blundered. I am 1900 blitz, so I should have crushed him?!
