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.\u201d The tweet included a stylized in memoriam graphic of Robinson through the years.

I remember the doctor explaining to us that usually there\u2019s no pain, and how lucky he was to have caught it. Geoff cited that often, and I never knew someone so steeped in daily gratefulness.\u201d \u201cAfter learning that extensive sitting could contribute to clotting, the first thing he did was tell his friends and community, urging them to get up, walk, and stretch often. He wanted to share and protect by example. You probably remember his diligent \u2018get up\u2019 breaks on stream,\u201d she added. \u201cHe used his experience to help others, he led by example in taking care of himself, and he spoke very often about how grateful he was for his life and the wonderful things in it. It\u2019s unbelievably unfair that he\u2019s gone. But he made each day of his 6 year \u2018second chance\u2019 count.\u201d In 2013, Geoff went to the hospital for pain in his leg and learned it was a blood clot.

The fact that he did everything right and then we blinked and he was gone is just inconceivable. \u2014 Anna Prosser (@AnnaProsser) July 23, 2019 \u201cIn the end it wasn\u2019t about sitting or anything he could have done to prevent it, and everything I say feels stupidly inadequate to make any sense of that.

It was clear that he meant a lot to the esports community at large and not just the StarCraft scene. Nick \u2018Tasteless\u2019 Plott said iNcontrol \u201cbrought so much laughter to me and so many others, while Sean \u2018day9\u2019 Plott described him as a \u201cone-of-a-kind person.\u201d Meanwhile, esports journalist Duncan \u2018Thorin\u2019 Shields described him as \u201cone of the most entertaining people to ever be involved with esports.\u201d The official StarCraft twitter account also paid homage to iNcontrol writing: \u201cthank you for everything, Geoff. StarCraft won\u2019t be the same without you.\u201d Robinson, a former Starcraft 2 Protoss player was a highly popular figure in the competitive gaming community from both his playing days and further career in broadcasting. As a player he captained the Evil Geniuses StarCraft team, and once his career as a competitor was over he transitioned into becoming a popular commentator for the game. He casted events such as season one of North American Star League and the 2012 DreamHack Open: Stockholm.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
