Lichess-Mode of Tourneys

Hello chessfriends - Lichess is a very, very good chess-server, so many tourneys to play. But i think that are a great mistake is in the way to run the tournaments. If you want to find the best player of a tournament (even when they are cash-prizes!) the only way is that all players have the same number of games (Swiss-system or Round-Robin) - the Lichess-System prefers all players which plays faster than usual. And Berserk is simply horrible - a Classical-Game changes to Rapid, Rapid to Blitz.... - and you dont have a chance to make a good place in the tournament without Berserk.

I love Lichess for the Leagues (90+30 Series, Lonewolf, 4545-League, great places for good chess-games) - but for playing tourneys with faster time-control other servers are better (for example Playchess) - only my opinion.

"You [don't] have a chance to make a good place in the tournament without berserk"
Magnus Carlsen won 6 titled arenas without berserking.

you dont always need to berserk to be the best player

@ saleh4real - i fear your opinion is not correct. Look at this tourneys i played the last days. First i have to say, for this tourneys i am simply to weak to make a good place, thats clear. But the final tables confirms what i mean - most of players on the first places with a high berserk rate. Look here:

lichess.org/tournament/a1dRXI2K

Or the 4545-League-Anniversary-Tourney from yesterday:
(should be a tourney with classical games, time-control was 15+15) - lichess.org/tournament/qYW5iyqt
The winner of that tourney played 28 games in 6 hours. This is not classical, thats blitz. (with 15+15 i would take an average of 45 minutes for 1 game, so i could play 9-10 games in 6 hours with my normal speed)

Best greetings
