    Chess.com held their Hyperbullet Championship the other day,
    GM Andrew Tang won the title.(Beating GM Daniel Naroditsky
    11.5 - 9.5 in the final.)

    Does anyone here actually play HyperBullet? If so, Why?

    I'm not that good with a mouse. I'd lose on time about move ten.

    But if I could play, I wouldn't.

    I don't play less than ten minutes per side. What is hyperbullet? 1 m +
    3 seconds?

    You could play on a smartphone/tablet and use your fingers to
    tap your moves...

    But if I could play, I wouldn't.

    +1

    I don't see the point in it myself...

    That's not chess - that's fastest finger first.
