Popular streamer and eSports broadcaster, Geoff "iNcontroL" Robinson, has died. The 33-year-old Twitch streamer died recently, much to the surprise of many because he was very much active on Twitter days prior.
"With immense grief, we announce Geoff's unexpected passing due to sudden illness Saturday," read the statement posted on his Twitter account. "We ask privacy as his family works to understand what happened and make arrangements. To honor Geoff or offer comfort to his family, we suggest donations to @SoCalBulldog, which he loved.
"Geoff is deeply loved across many communities and we're all working to make sure his affairs are in order as he'd want. BARRISTAN is safe in the care of friends, and family will share words of remembrance when they are ready. Let's live today in his example of love and laughter."
Robinson was well known as a StarCraft 2 player and was a member of the Evil Geniuses team that played the game competitively for quite some time. He has amassed a following of over 115,000 on Twitch, so there's no doubt he was well known on the platform.
Geoff Robinson will be missed by his fans, those in the eSports business, and others in the gaming industry as a whole.
