What is considered to be the main rating on Chess.com?

The average rating is relative.  When intoxicated the average rated is 2.  When mildly constipated the rating fluctuates depending on how well the laxatives are working.  When confused by paranoid delusions, its....well whatever the voices in your head want them to be I guess

Each category requires different skills. In general, good “short game” players have fast reflexes and know a lot of theory.

Good “long game” players know a lot of theory and are more creative.

that's a good one

i always just look at the rating of whichever mode they play the most. i care more about my rapid rating than my blitz rating because i prefer rapid. of course, in real life, classical chess ratings are usually the most important.

 Rapid is similar like classical standard game. Somebody play 10 minutes and somebody play like 20, 30 or 60 minutes rapid which is exactly like classical standard game for that your main rating and  real rating is your chess.com's rapid  rating. Just forget about hikaru his rapid is kinda 100 elo- more than classical because he can play such a good game in low time but average player rapid rating is same with classical rating. THANKS FOR UNDERSTANDING ❤️🌹🌹😃😃😃❤️

Bullet of course

no

Who cares? Too many people are obsessed with ratings. Unless you are making a living from chess or something, just play and have fun

Daily will get you closer to a classical (real chess) otb rating representation. Unless your rapid is 30mins+ every game. Maybe a little under do to people plugging moves into engines here and there.

If your rapid is 10 mins games. It’s leaning more towards blitz/speed chess. So it probably belongs in that category.

That’s just the way I split it up. I feel like they are two different things unless you are are 2000+. There I don’t the the separation between the two are as different.

Alot of good blitz guys get torn up at longer time controls. Lack of deep tactical calculations. The same goes for classical players not seeing the board quick enough or analyzing different moves for to long.
