title and time control
However many you can handle.
As much as you can.
The actual hardest question ever:
'If I play games daily on Lichess. What is the number of games that I need to play to become GM or very strong or whatsoever?'
More number of games don't matter else anyone could do it.
Main thing is to understand mistakes from the game played and prevent them in future games.
If you really want to improve at serious chess, then play few classical chess games one at a time and analyse them after end of games.
If you are a Blitz player then you should play number of games you usually play but remember two things: Don't stretch and Don't exhaust yourself!

How many games shall I play
10 billions games. 100%.
Bonjour Kitty -- I recommend playing 2-3 games a day to begin with. It's best to mix up play with plenty of studying -- tactics, puzzles, and maybe working through some top-level games. Besides this it can be great to just practice notation-- it's good to get where you have a perfect grasp of the board squares etc., (--<f4> is black square, etc., its rotational counterpart is <c5>, etc., I believe if you get where you have a perfect grasp of these it's very good. If you make it a priority it will get second hand nature, and there can never be any doubt instantaneously, which square is which color, which square is where, etc., so for instance f7 is white, b3 is white, etc., all of these will be instantaneous at some point.) J. Polgar (45 now) said she learned the squares with flashcards her father did for her. Probably a little antiquated and we can learn them more quickly today, but the principle is the same.
UB: 20–30; Bullet: 10–15; Blitz: 5–7; Rapid: 2–3; Classical: 1–2.
Quantity of games doesn't matters,what matters is knowledge gained from game played or how much does one understand.
