Once again Incontrol acting like a douche, loves to talk shit about people but cries when anyone talks back. TB has stated before that his other game content brings in much more money but he does the SC2 stuff as he enjoys the game.

Hopefully Inc can realise that he was way off with this comment about TB, purely by the community reaction. TL is hardly a haven of fanboys for TB, yet this reaction is pretty severe. People have already posted TB's history with SC2, would like to see a proper apology from Inc, but I doubt it will be coming based on past experience.

EDIT: Actually, to the poster above me, TB makes 1.5K a month from his livestream. Youtube content != money. Advertising revenue = money.

Do you know what he does with that money? http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=229408

What I don't understand is why the people in charge, who have very little experience with SC, would not consult with Incontrol and Gretorp over such simple issues like fixed maps and old versions. Anyone who even remotely follows the scene would know those are two terrible decisions yet they don't even draw on over a decade's worth of knowledge when they have no knowledge themselves. They claim to want to propel e-sports in America to new heights yet seem to be so out-of-touch with their base.

-incontrol hypes the shit out of NASL
-it doesn't live up to expectations
-uses nepotism to get his girlfriend some exposure
-uses nepotism to swipe the finals cast from the vastly superior Tastosis
-dumps the somewhat unstable NASL to hop back onto the EG gravy-train full time

I'm just waiting to see more of the revolutionary "I respect you" into cannon rush strategy from the last MLG. Once he's out of the MLG pools, I hope EG sees fit to drop him.

Nice read, Hopefully the EG bootcamp will push the skill of all EG players. I haven't seen too much out of LZgamer lately...

That statement about TB is kind of weird, why cant people make money of SC2? TB can make money and continue to do so because TB give something back in form of entertainment, and i believe people like TB and Husky and the legion of youtube commentators introduce more people to SC2, why is this bad? is it bad because they get money for their work? And defending someone new by putting down someone that has actually done great things for the SC2 community? I just dont understand

I thought the article was pretty good if you disregard the TB shot. The Tyler one was probably motivation as well, but still doesn't translate well on text. To anyone who doesn't know your history between each other, it's just insulting. Period.

iNcontroL:But when someone is basically just being a jerk, making personal attacks, making claims about someones professionalism....

....I honestly take more offense at people coming from other sports just to make money in Starcraft II--someone like TotalBiscuit

seriously? whatever you think of TB, why drop his name and single him out in the interview? thats what most people call being a jerk, making personal attacks.

and you wonder why people question your professionalism

Apart from the TB part, the interview was pretty good. I hope that NASL keeps on improving next seasons

let me make it clearer, when Incontrol says bad thing about people, he is joking around, when other people does it to him, they are jerks and are making personal attacks.

i think it's safe to say that incontrol is not one of the smartest people in the community. it boggles my mind sometimes with the things he says.

Well I don't know, maybe it's just me.

I might disagree with some things he said, the two posts I made in this thread could probably be read as disagreeing in some ways. But I seem to enjoy most things he does, that interview was fun to read for example. Does that mean I'm a "fan"? I'm not sure myself but I think it might.

I think he is better at expressing himself in speech than text though. Sure he says less nice things now and then and I've gotten white knight vibes a couple of times but sometimes I get the feeling that when he wants to, he can be a great thinker.

Anyhow, the point is, disagreeing with someone does not mean you have to dislike him/her. Me and my own brother disagree about things almost every time we talk for example.

It's clear he just doesn't like TB for whatever reason, besides the one he gave. Lindsey only had a monetary incentive, and he supports her. Idra constantly calls this game inferior to BW, obviously he doesn't think it's balanced, why does he play it? OH WAIT. Not to mention TB would make far more money doing wow vids, his sc2 ones are his least popular if he's doing "just" for money he's doing it wrong.

He's a smart dude but just sometimes lacks tact and foresight.
