In just two weeks the Homestory Cup 4 is kicking off and fragster had the opportunity to have a talk with Geoff '(P)iNcontroL' Robinsson who seems really motivated for the first big event in Starcraft 2.

The whole interview

Some impressions:

What are your thoughts about the atmosphere of the tournament in general?

iNcontroL: The atmosphere is really exciting for me. It's a big tourney, the prizepool is fantastic and the competition will definitely be top notch but yet it maintains a more relaxed feel which allows the players to play more comfortably. I am really excited for this as I think I (and anyone really) plays better when they are more at ease.

[image loading]

Is there an player at the HSC 4 you really look forward to see or maybe to see again in this smooth atmosphere?

iNcontroL: Naniwa! I have a nice personable relationship with him and in a few instances he asked me about my opinion on one subject or the other so I feel like there is an opportunity for me to work with him on managing his image in SC2. I am not talking about making him into a saint but maybe helping him understand the value in monitoring his behavior or words. Who knows? At least I can try!


If you like what you did see so far click here to read out the full interview with iNcontroL!

"in 2012 I expect to give people a level of play worth being proud of. Or die trying."
Careful Geoff, dying trying is actually a possibility in Starcraft D;

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.

gogo Geoff. Hopefully this break he's taking right now will allow him to get his head in the right spot.
The only way to attack structure is with chaos.

I think Incontrol has some issues when it comes to evaluating his own abilities. Maybe he can get some tournament results next year but giving Naniwa adivice about PR? I dont know about that...

Sad but at least partially true. At this point you can't question his heart but honestly that elite world class level of skill just isn't there.

Doesn't the fact that although Incontrol has little results he is one of the most well known players in sc2 speak to his ability for PR? He may not be one of the best players in SC but he is charismatic and well known and great and getting publicity for his sponsors and his team not to mention his stream numbers are always great.

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
