Benjamin is a top tier Hero, despite not attacking Bloons directly he is capable of efficient early game income generation and bonus damage to low damage towers through his Biohack ability. However, Biohack's forced downtime can cause rushes to sneak past if careless with the ability. Syphon Funding is solid at countering both early ZOMGs and most tight rushes, and deters the opponent from sending them until it ends. Trojan can assist against early MOABs, but shouldn't be relied on.

He can be safely placed on round 3, and any earlier round will require sacrificing some early eco, particularly against round 1's Reds/Blues and round 2's Spaced Greens. However, players who do not intend to win through the life advantage (such as on most Farm loadouts) should strive for round 1 Ben, as his income can quickly snowball to affording early-game defense.
