Playing Personality

However, they do have a tilt factor of 7 — so if things start going south, watch out for some colorful post-game reactions.

Their early resignation rate is fairly low (6%), so expect long, strategic battles. White pieces favor Josh slightly more with a 53% win rate compared to 48% when playing Black.
