Well, obviously Incontrol has a great potential of a competitive gamer, managing to place as high as he did in the MLG with as little practise as he gets with the NASL. So devoting more time into practise than casting, he's become a serious contender, next time Koreans come over to grab the prize money. ^^" Not sure why "nice" is warn-worthy, though. | ||

![]() i enjoyed incontrol as a caster. as he was on SoTG, really funny guy who made NASL quite fun to watch. hopefully freeing up time by leaving SOTG and casting NASL will improve his performance in tournaments and give him the practice time he needs on another note, i hope they get Gretorp some help though. He casted 25 games per week for the duration of NASL. that's pretty insane. hopefully season 2 will give him some days off lol. | ||

A lot have speculated on my decision to leave and talked about how I am giving up something I am better at (commentating or being a public persona etc) and I fully understand those perspectives. I haven't won any major tourneys and while I have had decent showings and done fairly well in other events (Cw's, ladder, online tourneys etc..) none of it is top-notch. I want to be top-notch. I am happiest when I am playing better and better. I love being a leader and speaking to people on large platforms but that is not my guiding light.. playing at the highest level is. When I move into the house with IdrA/Machine/iNkA and then move into the EG house roughly in August (Maybe July) I will be going there to commit myself to be the best player I can be. That means I will train harder and more than I ever have. I will utilize my team and friends like I have only when I stayed in korea for a week with IdrA (Where I nearly doubled in skill). Anna will move in with us as well and really jump-start her eSports career by hosting content, helping manage our team and doing other entrepreneurial activities. I will still do Inside the Game. I will still be a guest on SOTG and various other shows like TL Attack and Kings of Tin. I will still have an opinion and I will still strive to grow and improve this community. I will simply have more time to do those things WHILE spending more time than ever focusing my time and energy on becoming the best I can. I want to commentate in the future as I enjoy it and think I can contribute there as well. But living in Ontario and being relied on to cast every day for 7 or more hours is a LOT to ask.. especially given my true desire to be a top level player. I will have 3 weeks to train hard core for MLG Anaheim. After that, every MLG will be a target. NASL season 2 (as a player) will be a target. And my dream of going to the EU will become true.. but I will go as the best iNcontroL I can possibly go as! And I hope everyone can get on board with that! You are the man, I hope to see you in fighting form at future events. Keep on truckin'! | ||

You seriously could not have said this any better. You addressed every issue, and have made everyone know why you are doing this. Geoff, I fully support your decision and I wish you great luck on future tournaments! | ||

uhhh shouldnt you be excited for all the games? Considering you started the league? Once they get some real casters that just act as if they are intrested in the games I may go back to watching it but until than ill just glance through the results. Idk why they even have anyone cast it its so bland and boring at times, but than again I just may be spoiled by tasteosis....oh wait no because IPL casting was fine as was HSC, and they could hardly speak english.. I hope you flop hard Incontrol, maybe change your pompous "headier than thou" attitude, but doubt thatll happen. Btw you wouldnt stand a chance at any international tourny User was warned for this post | ||
