Bullet is like chess, but with no thinking.

I would have won every bullet chess, if this was true.

Almost no thinking

Same case either.

No thinking just going and both you and your opponent’s will be doing that and that’s just luck

Just luck? Bullet’s the same 64 squares and 32 pieces. if you can’t handle the clock, that’s on you. Skill wins it, not luck

Moving pieces as fast as possible just gives dopamine for being fast and removes the normal chess stuff

The only thing different in bullet in time. You should learn to handle it rather than criticizing it.

Yeah, this will never stop.

Let’s just stop this. Yeah that’s better.

I never watch high level bullet. It’s my opinion about it.

The clock is always such an importance piece. The shorter the time, the less the thinking. Since chess is such a mental game, a variant that limits thinking makes it less and less "real chess". I don't play it but I've seen people do it, and sometimes it seems like there is zero thinking and it's just a contest to see who can make the worst moves the fastest.
