I am so happy that I can play some longer time controls. The old 15+15 was more of a rapid time control.

Yeah, classical always felt a little short with just the 15 default option. This should be good!

Why did they remove 15+15 tough ? Time wise 30+0 is quite similar (with 60 moves the time is the same). I like having the extra time for the endgame and not have to stress that I’m almost running out.

And 30+20 is a bit overkill for my daily game since it can take 2 hours for a full game (but super nice option to play a longer one in the weekend or so :))
