    Ben is pretty good, but Vinny and Alex are amazing for walking past enemies right in their faces and the team suffering for it. It's a good for TV suffer, though. Vinny has an infectious energy when it comes to playing that game where good or bad, everything is fun.

    Jeff is a serious boy when it comes to PUBG, which I like also. It appeals to the part of me that likes to see people try to play the game right and succeed for it. I'd really like to see him team up with Griffin McElroy because he's also a serious camper when he plays.

    I'm watching to have a good time and laugh, and Vinny is just such a fun, charismatic host and is entertaining to watch. I love all the guys (and gal) and enjoy the show no matter what, but if I had to choose.

    I need to see more of Vinny and his ghost powers. That glitch was so entertaining.

    Vinny is probably my favorite person to watch play other videogames, period.

    Vinny and Ben are definitely the best. Both of them embrace the stupidity of the whole thing well.

    I think Abby strikes a good balance between staring at random things and murderfever.

    Alex, by far. He's a strong balance between Jeff's seriousness and Vinny's goofiness. And he has the best intros, too.

    While you can never have too much Vinny, I really like it when Alex hosts... on Murder Island.

    I like having someone on the team who embraces the silliness (Ben, Vinny and sometimes Dan) but I prefer the host to be more serious (and just better at pointing the camera at interesting/key focus points) so Alex has been my favourite so far. I'd love to see Brad take the reigns at some point too.

    Alex is great with commentary and the intros/outros(if that is a word). My favorite 4some squad would be Vinny, Abby, Alex and Jeff, even though it's usually 2 west 2 east. Following that it would be Vinny, Abby, Jeff and Ben. Abby and Ben are still wildcards in all of this and have been incredibly entertaining, despite not having played it too much. Abby was a straight up badass in Monday's stream and, of course, Vinny is always a delight.

    I wouldn't say anyone in particular is a standout for me. Only I appreciate that they are constantly cycling in new hosts.

    Alex has been doing a pro job. They all would ascribe to the some version of the same thing but, I like Alex's kind of grounded approach. Crazy (Vinny) or methodical (Jeff) can still be brought on board by the other players. I'm liking the diverse and the diversity.

    I love Alex, but he seems to have put the least effort into understanding the game at this point. It's nice to watch a cameraman that is well versed in the basics (even if they die every time) just for viewing standard.

    Alex and Vinny sometimes make me weep when they pass right by important weapon attachments and don't pick them up, but I still love them. Honestly wouldn't say I have a "favorite", and would actually prefer hosting duties get passed around regularly for variety's sake.

    Alex, Vinny and Abby(I know, it was a special episode) has been the best so far, in my opinion.

    Vinny acquired the sight, so his hosting has been my favorite. It isnt specifically hosting related, but nothing's topped that glitch he ran into from what I've seen so far.

    The duders have been doing a great job with the Murder Island streams, and I am particularly happy that we now get to enjoy Abby's enthusiasm for the murder times. I voted for her because frantically shooting Daddy Warbucks in the butt really encapsulates what I love about the PUBG experience.

    GB is definitely my favorite group of folks to watch play PUBG. They bring a great sense of bonhomie to their murder parties that I really appreciate.

    Same here. He seems to have the best grasp on how things need to be approached as well as tending to fall into the leadership role. More Jeff action.

    Dan obviously, when all the cool shit is going down i would much rather watch him loot 12 4xscopes then wonder why everyone else is dead already.

    Vinny has a habit of turning his back and trying to run to cover while someone sees him and it drives me crazy. I'd say Dan and Abby are the best to watch

    Abby and Vinny are the most entertaining to watch. I wouldn't mind spectating Brad for while, though.

    Jeff Dan Vinny. The others are kinda boring as "camera men" Nothing personal vs them, just as camera men I mean

    I should mention I haven't seen the last couple yet so I can't comment on those which may change things.

    Alex and Jeff easily. Dan looting as his team is yelling for help is just frustrating to watch.

    I voted Ben because I "watch" most GB content in a tab I'm not looking at while playing MLB The Show and reading news articles so the visual aspect of it played no role in this vote. I just find Ben's voice both the least appealing when filtered through a chat microphone and his issues with the mic that one time added some fun unpredictability to things but also had to be frustrating and I don't want Ben frustrated.

    But yea, I rewind if it sounds like something really incredible happened but almost all GB content is podcast material for me with optional supplemental video. I even "watch" the video podcast and turn away from the tab almost immediately.

    That Ben "Sneaky Shot" moment was spectacular.

    Probably Abby or Vinny for me, though. Theirs have been the most fun yet. Jeff is good in charge as well, he knows how to keep things moving.

    @darkjohnny477:

    Gotta say, Vinny and Alex guesting with Austin and Patrick was fantastic. Crossbows & Boat Convoys FTW!
