Is it bad to register early in tournaments with late registration?

Maybe this is my personal shortcoming, but I register for tournaments only before they start :)
I can check in during late check-in only if I have an expiring ticket. I don't see any, absolutely no benefit to late registration.

When the tournaments are slow I think it is better to wait a while, but when the tournaments are fast I think it is much better from the beginning, although sometimes I don't pay much attention to that and I just register from the beginning because I feel a little more comfortable like this

How profitable or unprofitable it is to register at the beginning of a tournament depends on the structure of the tournaments (the rate at which the blinds grow) and the player’s playing style!!!

I consider late registration not the best option, at least for me. I don't like to register for tournaments after they start, on the contrary, I almost always register early.

I don't think so as it gives you the best chance to build up your stack. You are more likely to be dealt some premium hands during this time, so you have more chances to get ahead. Also, you afford can play way more hands when blinds are still low.

I think registering early is not a good strategy because game is kinda slow and almost every one plays too tight.
Each player can choose for himself those tournaments that he likes more. For example, I don't like tournaments with late registration, so I rarely play them. You can find for yourself tournaments without late registration, but quite fast and dynamic. The choice is simply huge now and you can always find something suitable for yourself.

It's a matter of preference. Beginners should join from the beginning. As you gain confidence, you may want to register late.

it depends on the strategy, there are regulars who only register like that
