Is Bullet Actually Chess?

Bullet might be chess; because all of the rules are still the same and all of that, but it's more monkey see monkey do. For example, if you see something that might win something there's a chance that it doesn't win something but lose something if your opponent calculates. And yes, your opponent also can crappily calculate. So technically, strategy-wise, bullet isn't chess.

Can you further explain how “strategy wise bullet isn’t chess”? How is it any different other than having less time to think?

Bullet Chess is Life And I reached my peak.

If a 300 can get 98.7% Accuracy in bullet then it is best gamemode

I just did a blog in which I interviewed a bunch of bullet fans and haters.

I personally see it as real chess

I know this is now flipping the topic but why is it that when I click on some usernames, it shows correspondence or bullet or rapid? Can I change mine to bullet?

I think bullet is still chess. Just fast pace. And 1 minutes is actually not so bad if you're an expert since you can think faster and memorize better. Hyper bullet on the other hand is just who run out of time first.

Depends who you're playing with to see if hyper bullet is still chess if its a random 300 against a 2000 the 300 will always get checkmated or run out of time first it's still a battle of skill it just add's a bit of chance to the game

They do laugh about it afterwards but it does seem to be serious business.

The better question, is chess actually a bullet?

Chess is too old for that. It's a full grown bull.
