Nadeshot claims Scump would be \u201c5x bigger\u201d if he quit competing MLG \/ Eavesdrop Podcast[jwplayer fKo7sjsG] 100 Thieves CEO Matt \u2018Nadeshot\u2019 Haag is confident that his former OpTic Gaming teammate, Seth \u2018Scump\u2019 Abner, would be a much more prominent figure if he stopped competing professionally in Call of Duty and instead focused on content creation. Few names are as big in the world of Call of Duty as that of Scump, who has already cemented his legacy as one of the greatest CoD pros in the esport\u2019s history. He\u2019s always been a premier content creator as well, both in terms of YouTube videos and livestreaming, but he\u2019s still got a lot more room to fill his potential, at least according to Nadeshot. Appearing on Chicago Huntmen CEO Hector \u2018H3CZ\u2019 Rodriguez\u2019s Eavesdrop Podcast, the 100 Thieves founder explained why he thinks Scump can be \u201cfive times bigger\u201d if he prioritized content over competition. \u201cIf Seth would have quit Call of Duty and went full time on Fortnite and was a full-time Warzone streamer, he\u2019d be five times as big as he is now,\u201d Nadeshot said. \u201cHe doesn\u2019t even give a f**k about his YouTube channel. He goes on year-long hiatuses.\u201d \u201cHe has like 6,000 concurrents [viewers] while everybody else is streaming Warzone and he\u2019s playing scrims. He\u2019s not even talking to the chat, he\u2019s not even trying. If Seth applied himself and quit all this competing bullshit, he\u2019d be\u2026 forget about it!\u201d (Segment begins at 40:20 mark) While we may never know until if and when Scump does decide to switch to content creation full-time, but it\u2019s hard to argue against Nadeshot\u2019s claims. For as big of an esports scene Call of Duty has, most of the pro players find it difficult to consistently pull lots of viewers while streaming. Scump\u2019s been one of the very few who\u2019s managed to break through that glass ceiling, so it\u2019s likely that if he put the effort into that side of CoD as opposed to competing, there could be a lot more doors that open for him down the line.

Out of all active professional CoD players, he has the most subscribers on YouTube (2.53 million) and followers on Twitch (893,000), so the stage is there for him to perform on. Needless to say, Scump won\u2019t be competing forever and, as sad as it is for fans to hear, there will come a day when the 2017 World Champion decides to call it quits. The question then will become whether or not he\u2019ll be willing to reinvest that time and energy into content creation and become a huge star once again, so we\u2019ll just have to wait and see.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
