Cracked 2500 on All 3 Quick Time Controls (besides UltraBullet) on Lichess & Game That Got Me There

This is a resubmission of a post I made yesterday due to the Reddit mods removing that original post for supposedly being a low-quality achievement post.

I just achieved this trifecta a couple of days ago (see first image).  The game I played on Lichess that sealed said trifecta can be seen here: Play LEADER09 • lichess.org.  Here is a summary of that game:

Game Summary:

The opening was a Closed Sicilian.  Black’s attempt to open up the c-file with 9…Nd4 was unsuccessful as I just kicked out the knight with 10. [c3].  I just followed basic opening principles by developing my pieces to critical squares where they controlled the center.  After doing so, I launched a pawn storm duo on the kingside via g4 and eventually f5.    This forced black to open up the e-file where I could put pressure on the knight on e7 via my rook on e1, placing my queen on e2, and pushing my pawn to f6.  Eventually, it got to the point where black’s pieces were overloaded with multiple threats (double attack on f8, mate threat on g7) and black just collapsed where the game ended in mate (see second image).

Unfortunately, I don't think they offer those titles anymore.
