From iNcontroL’s Twitter:

To offer some solace in this time of grief: We've learned that Geoff passed quickly and painlessly from a blood clot in his lungs. He was with friends. He always urged and led us by example to take care of ourselves to the best of our ability. Remember to do that for him today.

First thing I see as I open my browser to TL. Jesus christ this is shocking. I was kinda hoping it was a sick joke by someone. He appeared to be doing fine when I saw him on the Pylon show. This actually shook me. R.I.P Geoff.

Can't believe this, I too thought this was a bad joke opening the thread. Geoff was one of the most talented SC personalities. Been a fan of him since early 2000's. This really sucks. RIP Geoff, you will be missed.

I've never spoken to Geoff before but this really hit me in the gut like it was personal. Spent so, so many hours watching him on streams and casts. I really miss him.
i was driving down the road this november eve and spotted a hitchhiker walking down the street. i pulled over and saw that it was only a tree. i uprooted it and put it in my trunk. do trees like marshmallow peeps? cause that's all i have and will have.

No freaking way. I just came back from taking a shower, and I clicked on this reddit post called We need to memorialize this game and read the first sentence starting with "With both TB and Incontrol having passed away,...". But wait, iNcontroL is still alive, isn't he? I've watched his stream ever since I was a teenager during the golden Brood War days.

Then, I checked TL.net's sidebar to see what's going on, and under StarCraft 2, the top thread's title reads, "Geoff 'iNcontroL' Robinson has passed away"...

I'm really sad now. I'm speechless... I'm going to lose sleep tonight.

He lived a full life. He lived a full, long, and rich life.

His documentation may say he had only been 33, but iNcontroL gave us all a century's worth of energy, humor, passion, and sheer force of absolute personality on every stream, every tournament, live or online, every game he played, every episode of every podcast he was on, and every public appearance he ever made in anything at all.

He was always unapologetically himself in a world where so many people are crammed into a branding box, and unlike many people who are "unapologetically themselves", he didn't NEED to apologize for who he was. He was second only to Garfield himself in the creation of one of the most important organizations in esports history. He could complement and raise up any person he shared a stage with, including people who were easily capable of standing on their own - JP, Wheat, Artosis, Day9, the late TB. I don't think any person represented the transition of BW to 2 the way he did. He had perspective in every aspect of the industry, a wisdom beyond his listed years, and a real love for the things he chose to spend his time on - Starcraft, Warhammer, and his amazing wife and dog.

Dan probably hasn't made it back from China to hear the news, but...well, that pylon is definitely his now.
The world is better when every background has a chance.
