Description

For clarification, the scope of this debate will be focusing on blitz chess, where the time controls are five minutes for both players.

There is bullet and lightning chess, but I'd rather focus on blitz to give Con more room to argue his point.

By suitable, I shall be required to defend that blitz chess is more mechanically designed for players with a mostly aggressive or offensive style.

I'll try to keep up. As a chess player myself, I'm interested to see how each side plays out the definition debate
