Dunno what anyone gains trying to put down iNcontrol. Everyone knows his gamestate and instead of being the 30th poster to repeat the same thing, wish him good luck and hope he makes his break out. I don't even know who they're arguing with. If you aren't a fan why do you even care anyways other than to hate.

because this is thread abour incontrol if there will be thread about tyler he will get shit too. btw atleast tyler isnt trying to cover his lack of skill by being funny and cool guy in every sc2 show possible


Cover his lack of skill?

Seriously, In every interview that i have read about INcontrol, he says that he is disappointed with himself skillwise and resultwise. He is not trying to cover anything!

Or you could not be the 30th poster ignoring the fact that he hasn't done well and instead criticize his inclusion in a tournament filled with better players.

Wow. This statement is... I don't even know. Are you saying that he is acting as a funny and cool guy on several popular shows to try and cover for his supposed "lack of skill"?

Okay.



I can understand where he comes from though. The fact is, Incontrol was acting kinda cocky on SotG before he had to face Boxer in an MLG (the first Boxer attended...Anaheim, was it?), saying that Boxer was the easiest Korean by far and that it would probably be a free win.
Well, Boxer destroyed him that time and Boxer is now Code S, something that Incontrol could probably never dream of.

I like Incontrol, but only as an eSports personality, not as an SC2 player, and I think people have the right to say so. At this point, the distinction must be made, it would be unfair to bash the personality because he's 0-10 in MLG sets since the beginning of times.

but he didn't say he doesn't want to watch incontrol...

I've never really been incontrol's biggest fan as a player, but this interview is a perfect example of why I think he's such a great (and much needed) personality in the community. He's like the ooposite of Idra, and I need we need both of them for the scene to grow. Drama is needed, but what this guy brings is what a lot of people will love and respect. You got yourself a fan Inc!

Could you be any more cynical and jealous? Yeah, he's trying extra hard to make jokes and be cool, funny and sometimes witty.

Give me a break, he's being himself and surprise, surprise, he's a lot more likeable than you.

how cant i be jealous?im working all month and guy makes much more money than me just by losing every tournament 0-6 and being funny

Good luck geoff! Hope you have at least a good run, you deserve it.

Id love him to win some massive events next year. The mindless jealousy and hate on this mans back is one of the most upsetting and fucking retarded things within our fucking awesome community.

Sort it out folks.

edit. Oh, iNcontroL HWAIIITING!

I like confidence, but I think iNcontrol is bordering being delusional. He will not win, and I would actually be surprised if he took a Bo3 series off anyone. Sad, but true.

which competitor goes in a tournament with the attitude of "I probably won't win a bo3"?? What else shoud Inc say? You play/practise to win


i think he knows hes not good enough atm. lets be realistic he has been focusing on anything else he can so he doesnt fade away from sc2 all together. there will be many many like him in the months to come it is wise of him to grasp things like casting and community stuff.

Inc can play pretty solid, he just hasn't managed it too well in tournaments this year. *shrug* It happens, can only go upwards and I hope it does for him in 2012. As for the Nani comment, if *anyone* knows about PR shitstorms lol..

Good luck man, make it happen!

HSC is a fun tourney, and I don't know who has brought as much overall fun to the community as Incontrol... maybe I'd disagree with a Code S invite, but not HSC

I don't feel like Geoff should ever be invited to any tournaments to participate as a player. A caster, personality..fine, but I feel that there are far more qualified players out there just dying to get a chance to prove themselves.

I don't think this interview was very interesting. This is generally the same things he always says (Except the stuff about HSC of course). I think Geoff is hilarious, and REALLY want him to succeed. It would be great for SC2 in general if he does well at HSC.

Basically, he needs to perform. I want him to, but I just don't see the same positives in his play that I see in players like Naniwa.

do you think he should go into every match expecting to lose? of course hes gonna say hes gonna win. then hes gonna damn well try his hardest because hes got a damn good attitude. you should go into every game, whether its against dippty derp or boxer expecting to win or else youre already playing at a disadvantage. i also think youre exaggerating the part about "probably free win". you should go back and listen to what he actually says

Oh my, god forbid if all 32 players aren't at the exact level of skill, someone could think they're not worthy of a spot in a tournament where players are picked by Take whether people like it or not. I hope you were flinging shit when people like Jimpo or Insolence were invited to HSC3 back in June.

I have an opinion: I like watching iNcontroL, and if a lot of people will watch HSC4 by tossing an additional invite his way then it sounds pretty logical. Not Take's fault incontrol has haters. Would an invite to Destiny be equally unacceptable? Besides, HSC is more than just a black and white tournament with results.
