If you want to improve your skills, play 15|10!

When i play too much in bullet, i am bad at rapid. I told you this too, and I'm not a GM.

maybe it is because of other factos? such as a bad mood or distractions?

Can you remember what tygcx said? He is 2100 rated

well but i still think that bullet is good because sometimes u do not have that much time for rapid which required 20 minutes maximum

Actually 10|5 is fine

Also playing against stronger opponents helps and is usually more effective than just "playing rapid "

Like I've seen 2000+ play rapid their entire life and never touch blitz most of them I beat and sucked at rapid ironically

Like if you struggle to think though don't play bltx or bullet like if you hang 2 move checkmate over and over again

GodOFCOW123123

yep bullet and blitz required faster thinking which can help u to practice the skill of finding out the correct move

GodOFCOW123123

so if u got little time in a rapid game, bullet skills can u help to claim the victory easily

32, yeah 10 5 and 15 10 are both good as Rapid times. Me personally it's a bit too long. But if someone's a heavier thinker and calculates more then those times are great but 10 5 is hard to find opponents some times

Lichess 10|5 time control is pretty easy to find opponents

GodOFCOW123123

so r u saying that Lichess is better than chess.com?

#7 you need to think, but GM Nigel Short said that blitz (and bullet) is bad for the brain.

Eh I wouldn't listen to gms too much studying chess for hours a day is also not healthy

1200 is better than about 99 of all people but in terms of people who play and study chess it’s not that great. Before anyone quotes me I know I am 1200 and I am saying that I am also not that good
