→‎Ahead on time: The emphasis if ahead on time should be to use the extra time to avoid blunders, which often decide the outcome in blitz chess.

When ahead on time in blitz chess, the strategy should become more defensive as the other side is required by the clock to take more chances.  Protect your king and queen, and look for mistakes by the other side.  If the other side plays defensively then you'll win on the clock; if the other side aggressive attacks your defenses, then you can capture their pieces and gain an additional advantage.

Don't be afraid to exchange major or minor pieces when ahead on time.  Better to exchange them in an even trade than have the other side capture them with aggressive play to catch up.
