I have found out how to win any bullet game

Step 1: Wait until they capture a piece. Like here black took my knight on c3.

Step 2: Quickly attack his queen. If you think for too long he'll get suspicious and won't premove.

There's a really high chance he premoves because it's normal to premove after making a capture. I think it's better than a lefong because everyone expects it

yeah it's a good plan. but it works better when they premove in the opening

Yeah I still do it in the opening but they expect it sometimes. When you do it in the middle of the game they don't

Yep, I find this works very well in hyperbullet. I don't do it in bullet because people don't premove as much.

Really clever.

This is why, in bullet, I generally try to save my premoves for the final time-scramble only - or after forced moves only (like checks and such).

Whenever I get lazy and premove too early, these kinds of tricks tend to jump out of nowhere and snag me.

Naroditsky named this the 1random trap. It works incredibly well, I have caught so many strong players you wouldn't even believe it.

Honestly I have no clue how people manage bullet in the first place.

I checked my games. Even when I instantly know what my move will be I still need about 2 seconds to execute.

Basically manage to keep the game going for 30 moves and I'm toast either way.

You need to get improve your mouse speed. 2 seconds is a lot of time to move the cursor from one square to another. Maybe change the cursor speed in your settings.

You could also play on phone if it's easier.

That's a 30 sec game, not a 1 minute game....

Nah I never play hyper. We had just used up our time.

I might try for 2400 today. Only thing is I'm not sure how to cancel premoves on mobile without the app... So I lose alot of games by not cancelling bad premoves lol

Just touch an empty square.

I just tried it, it doesn't work.

I've disabled piece movement animation, that seems to have sped things up. Its disorienting though.

That's why I only remove the opening in bullet 💀
