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. | ||

 Geoff was the reason I've been watching many tournaments and streams, his exceptional charisma & his game knowledge made him a perfect showman.I can't even explain how much I'm gonna miss him RIP Incontrol...you will never be forgotten and will always be loved. | ||

I met incontrol at blizzcon 2009 and introduced myself as kau. His eyes lit up as he thought I was vgl-cow. Sadly I had to inform him that I was just pony xpress kau. He casted some OSL with machine at that blizzcon. It was a good time. Rest in peace incontrol. | ||

Just two days ago he seemed to be doing well, even announcing his shedule for the coming months... Losing Geoff is a tremendous loss for SC2/Esports and the whole community. Condolences to his family and friends. | ||

My best friend and I had ran a Starcraft 2 podcast at the beginning of Wings of Liberty for about a year and a half and Geoff was the first (and only) big name guest that agreed to come onto our show. I remember it was a Saturday night during the holidays and he was super cool about it and it was an awesome moment for us and our podcast. My friend and I "came" from Warcraft 3 and at the time Grubby was still on EG and not publicly playing SC2 yet. So naturally we asked him if he was going to switch and what race he was playing and Geoff confirmed that he was and was playing Protoss. Days later I started seeing people talking about it on these forums here and were linking our show as the source for Grubby switching to SC2 soon and his race. It was really cool and we were both super thankful for Geoff's time and sharing some insight with us that we could then share with everyone else. Anyways that's my Geoff story. I don't actively keep up with Starcraft like I used to but every now and then I will stumble across his stream or Twitter feed and it always made me feel happy and wholesome that he was still heavily involved with Starcraft while many others of that era moved on. Rest in peace my dude. You will truly missed. | ||

I remember the 2012 Asus rog casts with him and 2gd. It was my first lan event i visited and seeing all that live was the greatest. Rest in peace and thanks for the years. | ||

Having recently gone through the same personally I know it's going to take some time for this one to feel real too. It takes a special kind of person to be so well respected, even people who didn't originally like his casting style eventually warmed to him as he seemed like he was a top, top bloke off mic and just enjoyed making people laugh. Big, big loss.. | ||

That tournament was legendary, largely thanks to the casting which was beyond silly. Geoff and 2gd with the A grade banter. | ||
