Xtremely sad to see Incontrol go. I think he did an awesome job as a commentator and really put NASL in the right direction. Hope to see him make many guest appearances. Him and Gretorp made the NASL what it is and both are excellent commentators. I hope he does well in progaming. He is very talented.
I hope he does return to SOTG :3

It figures. Now that further association with NASL can only hurt him, he flees to make a vain attempt at propping up his barely-there pro player career. I look forward to another "I respect you sir, please accept these photon cannons" moment.

Geoff is an awesome guy in the SC2 community and eSports in general. His decision makes sense since he often talks about wanting to be a player instead of jumping around projects (SotG, NASL, ITG, etc).

I'm so sad that Geoff won't be casting any more, but I'm SO happy that he's going to be devoting even more time to playing. Geoff loves this game so much, and I know that he can continue to build upon the success he's had to become an even more amazing player! Geoff hwaiting!

Incontrol and Gretorp were quickly becoming an awesome duo, hopefully there will be someone who can fill incontrol's role well. NASL will be fine though, Gretorp has improved immensely and can be a good anchor for whoever they decide to pair up with him.

Good decision if he wants to take gaming seriously; focus on the important stuff and keep casting as a side project. You did awesome things for NASL season 1 but now it is time to win NASL season 2!

Good luck Geoff!

I think this is a completely unfair and uncalled for misrepresentation of Geoff's character. He is one of the classiest, funniest, and kindest guys around, and he truly loves starcraft.

Geoff, if you are reading this, good luck to you. I hope your game excels and you win some tournaments.

If you want my opinion, I say stick to casting NASL and other gigs like talk shows n such, even though they are time consuming. I'm thinking that in order to make a living off pro gaming, you need to win a decent amount of tournies and make money off streams. But this is not easy to do since there are so many top players competing for prizes. However, you have an excellent on-air personality that is an asset that many would dream of having, and you can use that to make a great living casting n such. You have a lot of fans so either way GL to you.

That is good he is choosing to do what he really wants to do. Now lets see if he can keep his commitment as a progamer this time around.

Umm... what? How exactly is this nice? Not saying it's bad, but I have absolutely no idea what you mean.

incontrol will focus on pro-gaming and training, how is that not nice?

It's all about POV...

inControl gets more time to practice and focus on being a player so this is good news overall. Also, we get confirmation that we still get Gretorp next season which is more good news.

Very nice, so glad to see him back to focusing more on playing. EG is going to be pretty beastly soon, between this and the pro house.
