What I admire about Benji:

Certainly he's been doing and has done a lot of things for SEA. He's managing a team that has a lot of potential to go international, and he's also raised SEA up to many around the world. I believe he's done the most SEA advertising, be it only focused on Australia or actually SEA, he's really done well on doing so. I think his dedication to his job as a caster/manager is extremely great, and requires a lot of effort in sustaining his role. Speaking honestly, I don't think that any other caster from SEA has promoted this server as much as him. So kudos to Benji for being so amazing.

My Criticism:

I think for many like me, I've had criticisms for Benji ever since the start, but I was too scared or intimidated to speak about it. First of all, I think that Benji is not that open-minded to people. From my perspective, I think that Benji has a habit of only working with people he likes, which are rarely from places outside of Australia especially. Secondly, I do agree with the majority that Benji often looks down on other players/teams. I think as a caster or a manager, this is a really bad habit to have since your opinion can easily influence your audience or your team, and I believe over-confidence for a team that is still pretty new is not a good thing. I've watched Benji's stream quite a number of times, whenever I see a player from xGKing, the atmosphere of his casts are really biased towards his own players, and that makes me completely feel like that xGKing player is absolutely amazing compared to the opposing player. Thirdly, about Benji's casting, it may be a bit opinionized for me since I'm also a caster. Coming from the really SG's style of casting (whom I really learned from HDPhoenix), I find Benji a bit too factual with his commentaries. I'd like to know about the build orders or what the player is thinking, but the main point about casting is to entertain the crowd. I think that if Benji could use more excitement with his casts or find a very energized co-caster, it would really make his stream a lot more interesting. This is just how I like to watch my replays, this is why I like watching even Korean's cast (even thought I don't understand) because they are very exciting and it grabs my attention with the emotion that the caster inputs on the game. Lastly from an SPR side's perspective, we've also had some issues with Benji when trying to organize matches. He wasn't allowing games to be postponed or to be moved later without really thinking about that they were already ahead in points on the tournament. This lead to a lot of negativity in SPR towards Benji, so I hope that he sees that not just players, but clans are also not really happy with him.

Just some thoughts, I could probably go on and on!

But overall, Benji is definitely a very very important figure around here, I don't think SC2SEA would get as much spotlight if it weren't for him.
