The world of competitive gaming is getting tougher by the moment. There are many aspiring players out there looking for that one chance. Seth “Scump” Abner has a piece of advice for these very players.

Scump was in an interview that was hosted by Teepee as part of the Call of Duty League Barracks. Teepee asked Scump to offer advice for all those out there struggling to get into the big scene.

“You need to grind” – Scump with his advice to all aspiring players

Things are different from what it used to be when players like Scump made their appearance on the grand stage. There are different routes to try out and many teams to recruit if you are good at what you do. However, getting the spotlight on you is the task at hand.

“It’s tough. There are so many avenues you can take now. My advice would be; it’s gonna take a lot of time, a lot of effort and a lot of sacrifices. A lot of people want to be a pro and that’s why if everyone was a pro, they’d be popping eyes everywhere,” Scump said.

To be great at whichever game you choose, you need to grind. Sometimes, day in day out to see the results. Doing content at the same time on any platform would be a huge boost. Scump stated that if people could do both, that would be the better choice.

“Takes a lot of grinding but the biggest thing also is the content. They don’t really level them as becoming a pro and doing content at the same time. If you could do both at the same time, I’d definitely urge people to do that.”

Players often take a break from playing or uploading content. But once you have the community’s support, you are safe. Regardless of daily uploads or monthly, they’ll always rally in your support.

You could become a pro overnight or it might take months or years. Once you put your efforts into it, it might just be one video or one move you pull off that makes all the difference.
