What is the point about these raoid games?
1) Ability to calculate and make decisions very fast.
2) Intuition.
Bullet develops these 2 qualities.
Also good knowledge of openings and how to play some kind of typical positions is very useful in bullet.
Why do I play bullet? Because its real action - to play whole game in less than 2 minutes, when confusing your opponent, taking his time sometimes is much more useful then playing correct moves.
