I’M 600 BLITZ LET’S GOOO!!!
Sort:
Well done.
You might not like what I'm about to tell you: You should give zero importance to blitz and improve your level in classical games, strengthening your cognitive connections in chess. When you improve significantly in classical games, start playing 15-minute rapid games. If you improve significantly in classical games, you'll see that when you play blitz, your level will improve dramatically. In reality, at your current level, playing blitz will only stagnate your level or even worsen it.
When you reach a 2000 rating in rapid (and practice with classical games), you'll become a much better blitz player without having to play blitz. If a 2000 rating is too daunting for you, try to reach 1600 in rapid; it's not as difficult as it seems (I've never had to exceed a 1600 rating in my life, but I can't remember anyone I've coached who aimed for an elo lower than 1600 in online chess).

You can play any time mode you prefer, but if you really want to improve you shouldn't play blitz. Plus, you play daily chess, and instead of giving yourself hours a day to think, you only get a stress overload from one or several games that last for days. It's much better to have what stresses you out be studying chess and playing classical or rapid games.
