gogo incontrol Wolf and khaldor know what they're talking about man, I have to disagree with you there. Moletrap though, moletrap could use a little work Wolf was a former pro gamer himself.. Khaldor and moletrap seem about on par with eachothers knowledge when i watch them cast.

Now he probably just receives a regular dose of hate. Remember that there's not a single community member that isn't vehemently hated by someone.

People don't like it when they see that someone has a good life that they want, a good looking wife/fiancee that they want, a sense of humor that they want, and a whole pile of fans that they want. I tend to think it is the sad pathetic kiddy jealousy kicking in.

That's great news. Hope it happens. Definitely gonna watch more code A if Incontrol is casting (pair him with Khaldor !)

White-Ra is the white Boxer, they are the exceptions and thus un-hateable no matter what.
They could both burn down my house, steal all my money and kick me and I'll still love them

Statement from Incontrol:
On March 21 2012 13:35 iNcontroL wrote: Still need to hammer out the details.
Let me start by saying I am a player first, still. Yep, you can think what you want of that and call me bad or whatever but fortunately for me I am in a position where people still want me to play and I am one of those people. So I will.
I also love casting. Public speaking is one of my true passions. I gave speeches from early elementary all the way up until college where I competed in debate. It's a part of me I value very much. If I can find an excuse to yet again meld one of my passions with SC2 I will do that.
The plan as of now is to cast Code A for 1 month. They want me to cast solo and at the GOM studio. I also will be doing their show for a few episodes. In that month I will be playing on the KR server 10 hours a day (the casting gig is not that extensive) and I will be staying with Artosis (this is one of the parts that needs confirming) where I will work on the mental aspect of my game on a daily basis with one of the best minds in the business. I have connections with the SLayers house and the EG korea squad (JYP, Puma, Huk etc).
If I were to take this job it would put stress on my team as I wouldn't be able to cast EGMCS or do some of my other duties here in the Lair.
That all being said me going to korea for this extensive of a trip remains unconfirmed and just in the planning stages. It's been in the works for months now so I hope it does pan out but there are a lot of factors that could stop it from happening.
If I do go it will be mid April to mid May.
To those that are excited: thank you! This is my trip to mecca and if I can make it more worth my while to further my brand and do some casting for GSL, great! If this doesn't happen now it will some day soon.. thank you all <3
Glad this turned out to be true. NaNiwa isn't the only one with that opinion. I have far greater satisfaction watching InControl cast games than observing him playing them. I'm an optimist; I hope to see InControl rise to the top of foreign protoss players sometime in the future. He remains on a team that keeps their players in for the long haul and invests money in the development of their players.

Would be amazing. Geoff is a great caster and it would be great to see him do Code A.

oh man... Incontrol is such a funny guy and caster. But why solo? It doesn't matter with who he is, 2 are always better than 1
|
I've heard GOM wants to acquire Gretorp as a co-caster for iNcontrol. *runs
|
best of luck Incontrol
hope this happens and we get to see more playing & casting from you

GL with the casting!
And how funny it is to read the first pages now. People are really bad at creating a whole novel of drama from one sentence, that was only 100% correct and manner.Feels like being back in High School and listening to the girls gossip in class.

Which means that Moletrap might be done with GOM or not. It could just be a side job that Chae is cool allowing him to take alongside his Code A duties like Tastosis at MLG, etc.
This could mean we'll be getting Khaldor/Wolf and then Solocontrol for Code A. Who knows.
Oh, wow. OGN going all in with english casters from the start. Was interested in watching this beacuse of all the hype LoL has gotten in Korea. It is even a featured stream I see.
