INControL (real name Geoffrey Vincent Robinson) was a former StarCraft and StarCraft II player for team Evil Geniuses who later became a professional caster for the StarCraft II World Championship series and SHOUTCraft Kings.
INcontrol began playing the original StarCraft as a teenager, and at age 14, started his own pro team, eventually winning the title of national champion at the World Cyber Games in 2007.[1]
INControL is available as a purchasable announcer in StarCraft II, added in Patch 3.17. His voice pack is only available in English and without subtitles.[2]
His portrait was available in StarCraft II as part of the Macherino for 2018 QLASH Casters Invitational, but was later made free to all players.[3]
An emoticon and spray named "The Thing" of INcontroL's face was made available as part of the "Swann: Machines" Twitch Prime offer.[4]
Geoff Robinson passed away on July 21th, 2019[5] due to complications involving a blood clot inside of the lungs.[6]
After his death, Blizzard gave two portraits (including the QLASH portrait), his announcer, and a spray to all players for free. In addition, the symbol of INcontroLTV was given a chance to spawn at the base of xel'naga towers.[7]
