Who Is Scump
Scump is the gaming name of Seth Abner, an American Call of Duty content creator and retired professional player. Born on June 30, 1995, in the United States, he is 31 years old as of September 28, 2026. He spent the majority of his competitive career with OpTic Gaming and remains associated with OpTic as a content creator and streamer following his retirement.
His primary games include competitive Call of Duty titles, Call of Duty: Warzone, the Black Ops series, and the Modern Warfare series. His profile therefore spans both organized Call of Duty esports and streaming. Wikipedia describes him as “the most popular and one of the greatest Call of Duty players of all time,” reflecting his standing within the game’s competitive community.
Abner graduated from Cumberland Valley High School in 2013. His father, Shawn Abner, is a retired professional baseball player. Scump is married and announced on August 15, 2025, that he and his wife were expecting their first child. That announcement is a dated personal milestone, rather than confirmation of a subsequent birth.
Career Highlights
Scump’s competitive Call of Duty career lasted 12 years. OpTic Gaming was his team for the majority of that period, making the organization central to his professional history. His career included success at the MLG X Games and a Call of Duty world championship, alongside individual recognition at the Esports Awards.
He won MLG X Games gold medals in 2014 and 2015. In 2016, he received the Esports Console Player of the Year award. He then won the 2017 Call of Duty World League Championship, adding a world title to his competitive record. These achievements represent distinct milestones: two X Games victories, an individual player award, and a championship win.
On January 17, 2023, Scump retired from competitive Call of Duty. His retirement ended his professional playing career, but not his involvement with OpTic or Call of Duty. He continued as an OpTic content creator and streamer. His later recognition as the 2024 Esports Personality of the Year is separate from the awards he earned as an active competitor.

How Much Does Scump Earn
According to Wikipedia’s career earnings record, Scump had earned $652,140, or approximately $652K, as of 2019. That figure placed him fifth among Call of Duty players by career earnings at that time. Both the amount and the ranking are historical: neither should be presented as his current total or current position.
His present professional role is content creation and streaming for OpTic, rather than active competitive play. The available research does not establish his current content creator income, salary, or net worth. It also does not provide a verified breakdown of subscription, advertising, or sponsorship revenue. Consequently, no monthly or annual income estimate is assigned here, and the 2019 earnings figure is not used as a measure of his post-retirement income.
