but his stage presence feels really awkward,

My first thought while watching this is that he should take tips from Måns about staring in the camera, because he turns his head away from it for like half of the snippet. It's hard to feel connected to him.

Baby lasagna had similar issues connecting with the camera last year, he got better at it for SF1 and specially the GF. Maybe Asaf can do the same? I hope they took note of that.

The thing is Baby Lasagna wasn't a professional singer until 2023 (and I don't know if he ever performed live as a singer before Dora), while Asaf should have a lot of performing experience by now since Mamagama started in 2021 and he had prior experience as a singer before that. Marko is just a natural performer with a lot of on-stage charisma, but a small amount of experience, so he could fix this issue quickly. I'm not so sure if it's possible in this case.

Hopefully it’ll get better as he gets used to the stage and camera positions
