Bad at bullet, how to improve
Sort:
So as the title said, I'm very bad at low time chess. My rapid rating is 1400, which is decent, so what about my bullet ratings, you may think 'bout maybe 1100 or 1000, or 900 if not familiar with time pressure, but I am an 880, which is nearly 600 points difference. My win rate is literally 42%, which 67% of those lost or draw are because of time, which most of the time I was having an advantage. So how could I improve my skills in bullet.
If you improve your chess skills in general your bullet rating will increase. That’s more important than some arbitrary rating in a time control of 1 minute.. which doesn’t reflect the real chess ability. Most games it’s just who can move faster.
You can improve your bullet rating by playing more blitz… which values decision making and intuition as well as the pressure of time especially 3+0.
System openings like the london and kings indian work well too. Good luck!
