Bullet chess is music at full tempo, and you only get one take. Set the coffee down for this one, since it’s over in 17 moves.

darkvader13 vs brosetheghost. 1.e4 g5. Borg. Black pushes the g-pawn and takes on f3.

rnbqkbnr/pppppp1p/8/8/4P3/2P2Q2/PP1P1PPP/RNB1KB1R b KQkq – 0 4

Queen on f3. White paid a knight for the open board. Black’s rook is already looking for a file.

The middle gets loud. Rook takes h7. Queen takes b2. Then the last check.

rn2kb2/pp2pp1R/8/3pP3/3r4/2B5/P4PP1/RN1qK3 w Qq – 0 18

Qxd1#. Name the miss that left the back rank open. In music you can remix. In bullet you resign or you keep going.
