[Benji]

As a few of you know and for those that don't know, I got my ass handed to me at NRG today as well as being demoted from Masters. Basically I am out of practice due to various casting commitments, and today I realized that I can't actually be good at the game without training from time to time.

Most people will mope around and have a whinge (Actually I did as well) but instead I decided to get proactive and do something about it, and that's why this week, I'm going to be canceling my casting commitments and going full on training mode for the next qualifier on Sunday.

And because I'm such a nice guy, I'll be streaming my practice sessions with various high level players for you all to watch and hopefully learn as I do.

The Schedule for the week:

Monday - ZvT with TAriiChard 7pm -9pm (Podcast at 10pm)
Tuesday - ZvZ with nGenMafia - 7pm -10pm
Wednesday - ZvP with nGenLight 7pm -10pm
Thursday - ZvT with nGenWild 6:30pm - 8pm (Then Aus KOTH) Followed by Ladder after Aus KOTH
Friday - ZvZ withTASanchez - 7pm-10pm
Saturday - TBA (2 Sessions on Saturday)

I have asked a few players that have agreed to help, but don't know their availability, so this will be updated when I get more information

Tune in for some insight from some solid players.

Also if you're a top player and willing to help out (Perhaps I don't talk to you much or have overlooked you for some inexcusable reason) contact me

TA carrying nGen!

[TAavanar]

[SkyBreaker]

Good luck Ben, I'd been getting a lot of people asking me to speak to you about casting events and I was getting to the point of just telling them, to give you a break because you've had literally no time for yourself this past month!

Anyhow, all the best dude & GL!

[TAminimat]

Since I'm so nice and good, I'll let you practice against me.
Nah but srsly good luck in your practice and hope you do good next week.

I heard otherwise from a source that wasn't retarded.

Perhaps Benji if you drank more electrolytes?

[TAcawkballs]

You're from Singapore right benji? well i know you have some Singapore blood in you, you need to get rid of that rubbish and get some electrolytes into you

some advice from del

Take OxygeN for example. He was made to look like a diamond league player against Chinese players - is it a coincidence that China is also the Gatorade capital of the world? The word Gatorade actually means ‘Gaming Prowess’ in Hokkien. Also he is ugly.

The reason every Singaporean player relies so heavily on cheese and can’t macro is the lack of stamina that would otherwise be provided by a diet rich in electrolytes. In fact, a diet consisting wholly of electrolytes if possible. I think if Singaporean players ate less mie goring and drank more electrolytes SEA would be #1 server.

In conclusion, as every embarrassingly-endowed Singaporean asks his wife each night, you must ask yourself – “is it in you?”.

Dw man I got handed at nrg too. Drive to Syd then drink the night before. Not good. lEmme know if u want some games with me too I got a new pvz build that needs to be shared

[x5_Potter]

Will definitely be watching all of these, I play terran, but down in lower league it really doesn't matter. I reckon any tips given will help me too much to pass up. Excellent idea Benji, good luck getting back to Masters.

[HuT]

I'll help out if you want aswell.

[Xeen]

I'll win tra- I mean, practice with you, Benji.

[nGenWild]

I think I am free on Thursday night. If u r keeeeeeeen

[wish]

i'm keen for saturday if you want

[Harmonik]

I watched a fair bit of the ZvT last night and it was really good. Heaps keen for ZvZ tonight as it annoys me the most....

[SiF]

I know what you mean Benji - I had a three day break after a 12 game winning streak (I though I deserved it) ...and came back to an 8 game losing streak...

It's so easy to forget the perfect builds and at the top level small mistakes can cost you dearly - good luck with your practice mate I'm sure once you're fine tuned you'll kick ass again.

I heard you said I have diamond T, and all the ngen and TA guys said i couldnt win the tournament because I can't beat zerg, Can you train me ?

[YJY]

Del you funny bastard hahahaha

[Benji]

Nothing was ever said about you being diamond, and I merely stated when we were doing predictions for NRG that your TvZ from what i've seen didn't fill me with enough confidence to get me to say you were going to win.

[YJY]

I hope I vs no other race but zerg benji. No other race bud.
