iNcontroL's YouTube is mostly a spot where he can deposit quick and fun videos including his thoughts, stories, reviews and various different Warhammer 40k videos. Geoff is now a game tester and reviewer for Games Workshop so expect some awesome WH40k content showing off product before it is released and reviewing codexes from the perspective of a top tier competitive player!

FAQ:
Q: How much do you bench?
A: Most I've ever benched is 700lbs. I have a video of me doing 435 raw: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qHaDsqKZ-gM Now I bench more like 325 or so. I don't really train it and just lift weights for fitness.
Q: Do you live in the EG lair?
A: No. I live in a apartment in California with my dog BARRISTAN. I'm also no longer apart of the EG organization! Nice folks but it was time to move on.
Q: Why did you switch from Zerg in BW to Protoss in SC2?
A: I thought it would be better for my APM/play style to go with Protoss. I also wanted to do something different after playing Zerg for nearly 10 years!.
Q: Do you collect WH40k models?
A: Yes! I have collected/played WH40k since I was 12 years old. I own a gigantic Adeptus Mechanicus, Tyranids, Custodes and Genestealer Cult collection. I also own a lot of Knights and my prize possession is a beautiful Warlord Titan named "Deus Belli." I now travel and compete on behalf of team Team0Comp. You can see my bat reps/articles here: www.frontlinegaming.org -- On top of that I am a host on the podcast "Chapter Tactics"
Q: Do you have a streaming schedule?
A: Yes! It is my offline screen but in general I go live 9am PDT each day for 3-4 hours take a lunch then go live for another 4-5 hours. I usually play two games with one of them being SC2 unless I am particularly loving another game at that time.
Q: Are you still with EG?
A: No! Still got love for them.
Q: Where is IdrA?
A: Greg lives in Chicago where he is attending school and enjoying life outside of the gaming spotlight. If you want to know more feel free to tweet at him or something!
Q: What did you do for EG?
A: I was a former player/captain for the SC2 squad. I did media for them so any commercial, voice over or video work usually involved me. I represented the team/brand at functions and proudly bleed blue!
Q: How do you make your money?
A: I'm a full time streamer as my primary source of income but I also commentate / travel to roughly 20 events a year and get paid as a contractor. Outside of that I do consulting work in gaming and I co-host a show called The Pylon Show alongside Artosis.
Q: Can I play CSGO/other games with you?
A: Yes! But only if you sub.. I am trying to grow my channel/stream and I earn a part of my living doing this so a cool way for me to incentivize people is to include perks like this!
Q: Did you quit Starcraft?
A: I am no longer a professional competitor. I host/cast/stream the game nearly every day and it is still my link to esports. I love the game and probably will always play it in some capacity but I am also a gamer, I want to play games and entertain you guys! If you see me playing something else chances are you missed me playing SC2 by hours OR maybe a day or two.
Q: What do you think about the balance of SC2?
A: Generally speaking the game is fantastic and the balance of the game is going to be constantly changing. For me, I am not the absolute top tier so worrying / complaining about it seems silly when I make a dozen mistakes each game. I try and focus on self improving!
Q: How come you haven't been streaming?
A: Sometimes I go away for a few days 99% of the time this is because I am at an event casting Starcraft 2! I usually talk about this on my stream/twitter if you missed me saying either check it out!
Q: What is your best/favorite/worst matchup in SC2?
A: It changes.. it's also not particularly interesting to answer this all the time. I don't have a favorite/worst/best etc.. I enjoy the game and even when I am bad at a matchup I enjoy improving.
Q: Will/Can you stream Warhammer40k?
A: Yes! Almost every tuesday around 6pm PDT I stream #WH40k with my friends. VODS are uploaded to iNcontroLTV on youtube!
Q: Are you mad or ragey?
A: No. I pride myself on being real and giving full answers to stuff so some people think that is me being "triggered" or whatever but I am very rarely actually mad. I think it's fun to be animated and I like to joke around but I also enjoy serious conversations or explaining myself.
Q: When will you play X game again?
A: I almost always talk about this on stream but I also tweet the day I stream talking about my thoughts/plans on what I will be playing in the near future. If you aren't on twitter definitely consider joining our Discord (type !discord in my chat for link) as I am constantly there chatting/answering questions.
Q: Why are your VODS behind a paywall?
A: I stream live almost daily for free. If you catch my stream live you don't have to pay a thing. For the ability to watch at your leisure I think it's worth incentivizing that experience but also giving a perk to those that do sub to my channel. I am a professional streamer that earns most of their living doing this so at some point we have to accept I need to monetize aspects of my channel otherwise I can't do this as much as I do!
Q: Do you still lift?
A: Not heavily and certainly not consistently. I lift when I can to stay in shape but I mostly focus on a decent diet and a healthy lifestyle.
