With a comeback rate of almost 70%, they rarely give up the fight and often claw their way back from the brink.

Jabobo20's psychological fortress is strong, too, maintaining a low tilt factor of 4, which means losses sting but don’t derail the game plan. Their best time to pounce on opponents? Bright and early at 8 AM, when the mind is sharp and the pawns fear to advance.
