How to get really fast in hyperbullet? • page 1/1 • General Chess Discussion • lichess.org

So I just tried the hyper bullet arena, and I like it a lot. People spam moves and then I just sneakily do some move to try and capture the queen and since they premove, I can often capture it as well. A couple of times I got close to beating a 2000+ player. But it seems when time gets really low and they spam moves in a speed which I am not capable of and then I lose on time. Are there tricks to improve this? It feels that the phone is the way to go here but then still my fingers get tangled up. The mouse doesn't seem quick enough.

As flagging is a part of hyperbullet, I would like to know some tips & tricks to improve on speed. Can anyone share there thoughts and experience on this matter?

Kind regards,
B2s

Try Ipad if you have it.

I'm surprised that touchscreens should be favorable to mouse.

When I play a bullet endgame I can premove with the mouse so that I lose 0.00 seconds per move, meaning I premove fast enough to not lose time at all. Also I think using the mouse is much more accurate. Also note that I made the size of the board a bit smaller than default.

But then I again, I'm no hyperbullet player. I don't know what's better, I was just surprised that people play using touchscreens.

Yes, much more important than getting really good at it!

Just don't play!

Play a lot of ultrabullet.
I stopped bullet totally and only played some ultra.
When I came back my rating jumped from 1600 to 1800 in 2 days (on my main acc).
And the advices to play blitz or rapid where in my case crap, you just don't learn to spam random moves fast.

Resize the board to as small as it gets and turn the mouse speed all the way up. Small movements at high speeds is guaranteed to earn that dub.

I know why your so slow its cause your on phone its like 100x easier on mouse. My advice is to switch to mouse or just not play hyper on phone cause its almost imposible

@shiningstar12345 mouse probably better.
But I hit the 1800 on hyper with phone.
Probably 2000 on hyper phone could be done as I play just crap.
Ultra harder

@shiningstar12345 mouse probably better. But I hit the 1800 on hyper with phone. Probably 2000 on hyper phone could be done as I play just crap. Ultra harder
