IncontroL is not just a great sc2 player, he also shows to be the embodiment of "haters gonna hate". I'm saddened by all of the inc hate, but it makes me happier just seeing IncontroL still being so passionate and loving of the game and the community. IncontroL Hwaiting~!

I wish he would spend more time streamin 1v1s and a little less time doing 4v4 with bronze players that watch his stream. He is probably the player that interacts with the community the most which is good, would love to see more of his practice games.

Bro i am proud as fuck when HuK wins, so you have that part totally wrong. I also think that you have a serious man crush that needs to be addressed, and that you have to understand that incontrols career is heading towards management, not towards the GSL. But yeah he's a good guy.

Have to say, iNcontroL is one of the very few non Zerg players I cheer for every single tournament. I can't quite put my finger on why but watching and listening to him, and seeing what he puts in to the game I couldn't not want him to win. So yeah, GL iNcontroL! ♥

While I disagree with the whole thing about how we aren't proud when our favorite players win (I am ecstatic when IdrA wins and am proud to call myself an IdrA fan), I share your want for iNcontroL to win. He's a great guy as far as I can tell and does a whole lot more for this community than people generally want to give him credit for. iNcontroL fighting!

Hes not my favourite player, there are other players whom i enjoy watching more.
But if inc won an MLG or a dreamhack or something, that would make me much happier than if any other person in the whole sc2 scene got that result ^^
Every time ive talked to him hes been a nice guy, and even answered some questions when i asked, even though its obvious hes really busy most of the time. Just overall awesome dude

It really bothered me that you used the wrong weather. But it did not detract from your blog at all, and it was a nice read. I just wish that with all that determination, Geoff could do a little better. It is kinda discouraging to see him perform so poorly in all his tournaments. :c

I'm happy for you that you're a big fan of Incontrol, but please don't put down the fans of other players as being less proud and passionate

My thoughts exactly, it's kinda hard to watch someone who says he "lives and breathes starcraft" preform is badly, especially considering he enjoys a training facility and practice environment many players would kill for. I think incontrol might need to choose to go the way of artosis soon >_>

I completely agree. You literally laid out several of the arguments for why he is my favorite player that I have explained to friends. I'll say it time and time again, that Starcraft 2 is young enough competitively that having our champions be people like iNcontroL would be the best possible thing for the sport as a whole. His attitude, perseverence, and persona, are all incredible, and he's been incredibly kind and grateful in any responses to friendly messages I've sent him. You're totally right about the nerd-pride. I know someday Geoff's gonna top an MLG like a boss, and I will probably be the one tearing up.

Are you serious? Why? Because he hasn't had good results for a handful of months? Do you realize that Korean Pro Houses often give their players a full year to post any form of results or solid improvement before even THINKING of removing them based on their play?

You're just like the senastionalist people who think the "EG house wasn't worth it" because it didn't produce a lineup of Bonjwa's in 3 months. Please keep these uninformed and misguided comments to yourself.
