It’s clear that no one is at fault in this situation. Ben absolutely needs to stop interrupting his guests ESPECIALLY when they're answering a given question. This has been an ongoing issue for a long time for Ben, its why there's always people in the chat telling him to stfu. That said, Lamar probably went too far telling Ben himself to stfu. He should have just let Tommy handle it, as we saw him do immediately after Lamar told him to stfu.

Tom HAS to have Ben’s back more. If there’s a disagreement about something and it always essentially defaults back to “well Ben wasn’t a pro so STFU”, then why even have him on the show? why have him as a co-creator? Yes he wasn’t a pro, and some of his takes are faded, but we all know what he’s done for the scene and deserves bare bones basic respect as a MAN. Ain’t no way someone is coming up on the platform I helped build for 5 years and telling me to STFU twice within 5 mins of them arriving unannounced, just because they’re tilted they lost and broke GA’s as well. Tom, I’m very disappointed in you for not having your boys back and instantly blaming him for the awkward situation, I expected MUCH better from you.

Ben made a good point. How many years has snaking been an issue? This is clearly an issue and this “pro chat” is not the solution. I have watched The Flank since CW and every pro agrees: the chat is inefficient and includes extreme biases. Solution? For once, listen to Ben. He is the only one actually trying to improve the issue, and that deserves respect, including from the co-hosts. It’s easy to dog on Ben, but we have to have an objective mindset on the issue. Side note, some of these pros should learn how to talk with respect like Slasher. Too much crying and fans are tired of it.
