Does Beserking increase Rating?
No...it only gives an extra point (in my opinion so)
Yeah #2 is right
Ok, Thanks

It makes you gain bonus poin in the tournaments.I suggest you to berserk for opponents that are weaker than you.If You berserk for a strong player your losing chance increases.
Point
No, beserking decreases rating. Sort of legal "sandbagging".
Players who have a high beserk-rate are usually stronger than their rating would indicate.
I suppose that players with berserk-rate over 50% in their stats are underrated by at least 100 points.
Every arena has those players who beg for berserk/berserk back in chat.
Imho, pretry annoying especially when they get upset when they dont get their "berserk-back".
Berserkers turn classical to rapid, rapid to blitz, superblitz to bullet.
Some are insane to zerk in ultra, and I guess, if lichess would offer 7,5 secs games with berserk, they would even hit that evil button there as well. Right, #5?! :0
On the other side: berserk is fun; and sometimes giving time odds increases focus.
Great lichess feature! Thanks for that!

@Funkmaus , what about beserking in Classical? Is it the same?
@Funkmaus at your rating and below, you can actually see 100 points in playing strengths difference?
