Add rapid with increment to the quick pairing options

Having only a no-increment time control for rapid in quick pairing is a big annoyance. Creating custom games is much more impractical, and that's a big reason why I play few rapid games.

Yes, there are less rapid players overall than blitz and bullet so you don't want too many quick pairing options, but if I play a longer game, it's not for it to end in bullet mode, so 10+0 is a no go for me, and I don't think I'm alone in prefering 8+5 to 10+0.

So please lichess, add a rapid TC with increment to the quick pairing options.

Yes I have noticed that as well. Its somewhat uneven, with 4 blitz options and only one rapid. Perhaps the least played blitz should be replaced with a rapid option? Or make it a 4x4 that would even include 960 quickpairing.

Agreed.

I also thought about having one or two 960 quickpairing options, that would be really nice I agree.

+1

I want to see 10+5 time control for rapid.

4x4 grid With
1+0, 1+1, 2+1, 3+0,
3+2, 5+0, 5+3, 10+0,
10+5, 15+0, 15+15, 30+0
960 5+0 960 10+1 Custom, Other

Custom would be some sort of personalized button

I would definitely play 10 + x because of those people who try to flag you in a dead draw by trying to play out the 50-move rule because they have more time on their clock. It's no longer chess at that point - more like Nintendo.
