How to get better blitz/bullet rating as rapid/blitz player

In the even that,

a : 15m+10s per move, 15m or 10m are rapid.

b : 3m+2s per move, 5m or 3m are blitz

c : 1m is bullet

As we suspect (by taking that the blitz category) to play 3m+2s per move, 5m or 3m creates a different reality with a population of players not being really or necessarily the same giving a different meaning to the ranking too, I think.

For 3m in banter blitz video we see GMs who as soon as they don't play against IMs or GMs or [very] high elo win almost all the time.

There are accidents where they sometimes lose with time in completely winning positions or make stupid pats. So in short even if in blitz a gosu can still potentially lose on time or on a big blunder against much weaker opponents, on the long term there is still a reality and a balance of power that makes "it is not a lottery".

I am assuming that "rapid players" play 10 min games and "blitz players" play 3 min games.

I just saw this hope you don't mind lol. A while back I actually tried to play 9:59 blitz. I did unrated and it took a while but I eventually was able to get two games, one win and one loss iirc

nah for blitz set it to 9:59|120 and for bullet 2:59|120

that won't work

what about 9:59|60 and 2:59|60

No, because I remember reading somewhere (forget where) that they calculate the total time as the base + 40 * increment, so having any increment on top of 9:59 or 2:59 won't work.

oh

so just 3|18 and 1|3

3|18? Just 18*40 = 720 seconds is already 12 minutes so solidly rapid.

a

3|15

Please use a calculator before commenting again

bruh 3|12

My friend, 3 minutes plus 12 * 40 = 480 seconds (8 minutes) is 11 minutes

...

my head registered 3 minutes as 2

For 2:59 I guess the max increment you could have would be 10.

wow im playing bullet with 5 sec increment

Makes sense, it happens . 10 minutes exactly then, nice.

yes
