One more question for you guys. I play blitz chess on chess.com a lot. One man told me blitz will rot your brain but others say its fine. It's probably different for everyone but just wondering what you think.

I don't play enough blitz, so every time I get into time pressure in an OTB game, I panic and I can't see anything.

99% of GM's play blitz.And they play it well.

so 99%.
