He wanted to go out on his own terms instead of people telling him he should probably retire

[codysseusOW]

I wish the COD cycle would have lined up for him to go out with a Treyarch game

[eugenefromguam]

He left while he was on top, yet he still continues to be on top 😂

[JewJitSuSixty]

I know some fans were upset/mad at his decision, but man, at the end of the day you gotta respect where he Is coming from. Regardless, it's heartbreaking to see but the man will be remembered as the KING

[KrayGhee]

Went out with the highest k.d ever on a final series. Wasn't close to letting anyone down. Too hard on himself

[BrandonStrugy]

As a fan ever since MLG started back in the late 1990's early 2000's it's odd being able to witness all these events unfold for decades.

Scump is a legend, yeah it absolutely sucked hearing him say he was going to retire, but he did it on his own time within his own terms, wish it wasn’t on a modern warfare game but look he can focus on streaming giving us those dope watch parties, making his own videos, plus he’s still with optic man the best freaking competitive gaming team there is (yes I’m blick riding) but fr Scump is a legend and no one will forget what he was/ is in the COD universe

[kzh]

Respecting everything and everyone and understanding it’s a disservice to stay on, I’m not even a big gamer and I’ve been following scump for 10 years

[Malaka]

Its respectable but at the same time it's a limited mindset or fear. You'll never know until you do it. either route is acceptable.

[Sideways_Singh]

He was still the best n wasnt declining in performance, woulda
loved to see him compete in mw3 n blops 6 atleast before retiring.

[yzkniJ]

If you’re a real MLG fan you know stump been on top and is gonna stay relevant for literal decades to come. Best COD pro player out here.

[derekvincent]

To be honest I was pissed that he retired because I finally got in a place in my life where I could of possibly went and seen him compete live but now that's not an option however after cooling down really it's better this way also I joined team scump for his pub stomping videos way back Id rather have the content creator then the player because we have more access to him now with his twitch streaming being more consistent without worrying about scrims kinda went on a rant lol 😂

[tobecontinued]

I won't believe he's fully retired until the next Treyarch game comes out

[Jon.E.A]

Smartest move you can do. Preserving your legacy, especially when at somepoint was the goat.

[bonnon]

So humble. The guy was still a top 3 smg player in the league.

[AlwaysEwok]

All of the all time great players had a drop off in performance from potentially best in the game to just one of the best, then comes to drop into being average at best which is what scump is talking about not wanting to happen

[adammatschullat]

Hes so right and i respect the self awareness

[anthonylepera]

The greatest call of duty player ever. No other player on the history of almost any esport had to play their entire career under the amount of pressure scump did. And was a top level player for his entire career. (Besides ww2)

[jnewb]

Don’t wanna be going out bad like Aches

[fredericrichard]

You will never fall scump you are the best even if you dont care and you miss one more ring my boyyy🥇
