"im falling down so you can go up" Now bruce is a world champion under the OpTic name. absolutely love to see it
W
Ant saying "Can I get a hug Seth" while breaking into tears....that hurts because you know Ant looks up to Seth not only as a teammate or friend....but like a brother.
timestamp?
Time stamp pls
23:50
That moment right there hit a little too hard
Looks up to Seth like Seth looked up to ray
No cap Hector is so unappreciated for what he has done for cod . Esports and the life changing opportunities he's given 100s of kids within optic. He's the true goat 🐐
He really is but thousands recognize that and won't let it go unrecognized, he is the true Legend and GOAT behind all this. Hope he reaches 1 million subs soon. He should have eay more.
CoDfather
Great leader and that never changes.
He's not wishy washy hes there every single time
What's absolutely wild about that is nobody thinks what that must've been like for him. He was 33 in 2013 and had the vision to buy some teenagers playing video games a place to stay to follow their dreams. He truly is a king for that. He must've at some point thought to himself "what the fuck am I doing". On top of that without him there wouldn't be a 100 thieves.
The shot of Hecz peeking around the corner and giving Huke that look, then Huke looking straight at Scump.... So good
Time stamp? I have my AirPods in and missed a lot of the actual visuals
@@SmileyJoneso_o 6:56
Also the one right after where Hecz is peaking around the corner with just that look on his face that he knew that was Scump's last match he would see him play. Scenes. Feels.
@@DylGonZo facts bro
Yes 100%
This is my childhood right here man. This is all of our childhoods. I have grown from a teenage kid to a grown adult and every step of the way the optic guys and Scump were there for me. Its a really strange thing to explain to those who are outside the scene, but I know everyone in here resonates with how deeply this hits in the feels. Congrats Roger and everyone behind the scenes. You did this man the justice he deserves.
Truly hard to watch, this man has changed the lives of many, hard to watch him go, proud to have watched his career and extremely proud of the figure he has been, he has taught lessons he doesnt know hes taught, now hes passing the crown.
Couldn’t of said it better myself!
Parasocial relationship, maybe you need some help
@baz not a parasocial relationship to have a figure to look up to, goofy ass
@@Aaaaa69999 he's on online presence, everyone who consumes his content is in a parasocial relationship. Which includes you btw, bc you're in his comments.
I feel Hecz needs an award named after him. He's molded and guided so many young men into who they are.
this is so fucking true
I've always thought of Hecz as a father figure to all of them growing up although he's not too much older than them. Deff a great person and a great role model
Everyone under him has went on to succeed after their careers and that says alot about the man and his ability to mentor and put them in the best possible position to live a good life after they retire.
Father of OpTic
I dare say scump is a large part of the reason why eSports is so mainstream today. Him, Nade, all the OGs took Optic to heights people never could've imagined. They changed the entire content scene too. I know him and Nade had their differences but he couldn't have asked for a better person to pick up the torch when he left. Excited to see the next evolution of Optic. We're all growing older but I'll always bleed green.
Why esports is mainstream? Nah. Why CoD is mainstream? Yeah
Things like DOTA and League have much bigger followings than any of the FPS games, they’d still be considered mainstream without Scump
@@c4gob00m Haha who watches DOTA or League😴. Remember when playing video games was uncool? Dota and league are probably part of the reason why it got that reputation. 🤣🤣 It's cause of these guys and similar players/orgs that people care about the industry known as eSports today... COD eSports (and more specifically Optic) put gaming on the map in America. You can disagree all you want but it won't change my opinion.
@@jack1225221 it's literally because of CS , league and dota. i'm a gigantic OpTic and cod fan but you have no idea of the esports history if you claim this 😂
@@nielsvicca2784 league and dota??? never heard of em.🤔
@@jack1225221 What do you mean who watches DOTA or League? They're literally the 2 most watched esports lol
That part where you could tell the appreciation Scump had when Formal turned up to the announcement got me in the feels.
Boze saying “ I ain’t got nothing to say to the kid he been taking all the salary money” that shit had me dying
He's quoting Maniac, but that did send me as well lmao
This one’s gonna hit the feels.
that's crazy because crimsix is the goat
@@user-np2ef4pj7w ur right he is the goat by far
Tore me up… always be remembered! For you c6 fans sit down. “No one” made the plays he did, the excitement he pulled out of you for call of duty was like no other. He made the drive for the game endless. Make you wanna study, play, the game like him. What more excitement can you get in duty then make big plays on the hill getting 3/4 or a whole ace in search? That was this man. He’s the Kobe Bryant of duty. Came in changed the game an left with a bang in my opinion.
@@oh_snipey9272 C6 has 3x the amount of rings Scump has
Amen brother
Started watching OpTic in large part because of Scump and his insane plays, videos, and everything. Now I’ll always watch OpTic but man it’s sad without Scump. Will always be remembered as the best in the game😢
C6
@@DonovanGG__shut up donovan
He paved the wave. Now to enjoy the new talent and he's a legend in all of eSports. W.e input you prefer you cannot ignore the facts
@@ReFLexX_ii in all of eSports? LOL no… not even close. Cod esports is nothing compared to CS, LoL, Val
@@DonovanGG__ dudes got multiple championships... I think anyone can agree it ain't easy to do even if your a MnK player, you know how comp is all similar skill (should be) put against each other. Yeah those games are def bigger but I can throw apex in who has higher view counts then any of these over the last year(maybe not cs) but doesn't keep orgs from dumbasses running EA. Franchising also ruins eSports which cod, val, OW have..(idk LoL like that or if cs is) Why orgs be going broke
Coming back to this video after 2024 Champs absolutely hits on another level… “I’m falling down so you can rise” and those words stuck with Bruce, absolutely amazing to see the hard work and dedication that those guys have is top tier and to see the transformation of Bruce being the Veteran of OpTic is really amazing if that kitchen scene doesn’t make it into the Cod Champs process with a legendary edit it’ll be a shame 🤣
Yo this literally made me cry. I've been watching optic since I was 13, and I'm 26 now. So many good memories watching the #GreenWall. Much love to Scump and the rest of the #GreenWall ❤
Thank you Hecx for making the decisions to create such a dream team. Thank you Scump for inspiring an entire generation and giving us someone to grow up with. And thank you Optic for the community and home you gave us the fans. This was hard to get through as it feels like I'm just getting older and older. Happy for you Seth.
Been watching Optic since the release of Black Ops II, some of the best memories were in that first team house with Big T, Nade, Scump & Merk. Thank you for all the laughs and smiles, now I’m 22 and I can’t believe that I’m crying over people who I’ve never met before. Thank you HECZ and the Green Wall
“I’m sorry if I disappointed you fans” Seth you did more for the rest of us then words could ever do. Thank you. “Together we stand, together we fall and together we are the greenwall”
This one right here
Crazy how many kids like me grew up watching scump and the rest of the OG team and seeing this now just shows how close the team is. Scump and Nade and BigT literally helped me through the hardest times of my life and I’m eternally thankful that I was able to watch their journeys. Green wall for life💚
Scump is so lucky to have Iz just like Karma is lucky to have Holly. They care about and support their partners so much. She's standing there handing tissues to Scump, Karma, and Shotzzy
Seeing Seth and Hector’s faces light up when he sees Ant… This kid is the future, hope he never leaves.
from a fan since the beginning. this made me cry a lot. so many memories and emotions growing up with these guys. love to see seth happy. thank you optic for all you've done for the fans over the years. you've grown these boys into great men
Started watching optic because of nadeshot in bo2, and when he left I stayed a optic fan. Forever a optic fan I was 12 back than and now I’m 23. Optic is a big part of my life it’s crazy to think about
Man this one hit the feels... when illey just got up and walked out that was tough. Wish the best for him, and I hope this team succeeds. Great content as ALWAYS!
Letting go is freaking hard man. But I've never been happier for Seth. Still got alot of life left to do insane stuff.
Am not crying, you are. 😢 this is why optic and greenwall is the greatest org and fans. Been here my whole teens and now am 30 this year and I still watch optic everyday and think and remember the good times. Forever greatful ❤
This had me crying in the club. Seth and I are the same age and I've been watching OpTic since the very beginning, time really does fly.
I hope Huke is around for a long time.. have always been a fan but it’s been really nice to actually get to know him.. he already feels like family.
He is lucky if he lasts the entire season, he will be gone for Pred coming next season anyway
Unless they win out at champs. I think not
@@MrDoggson its also depend the other 3 teammates bro. Sometime a better stat player wont fit right. U need player that know what others doing. No doubt pred damn good. But i guess if optic hold on to this roster, this going to be another dynasty.
@@MrDoggson I don’t think he will go anywhere now lol
Seth really had me crying again. That montage was so good💚
Lmfao
@@xApxstle youre on everyones replies lmfaoo get a life
Y’all what shocks me was me watching these optic videos when I was in middle school. That was like 10 years ago. It’s crazy how old I am now. 25 years old watching optic still, when I first started watching them. This hits home so much. Much love sump
This last part of the video is so significant especially after Major 3. Witnessing the boys go from losers round 1 to the grand finals was very important. Even though they didn’t get the end result they desired, this shows the power and the potential this team has.
This team is very passionate and driven to succeed. And they never stop fighting.
the fact nade did this episode was so fucking cool, i was trying to hold back tears the whole time.
Man growing up with the greenwall this hits hard…. 30 years old and I’m tearing up…
I just play CoD in the evenings sometimes, or when I can get my daughter to sleep for a while. I just have to say I had no idea how large these events are and how passionate the fans are. Insane
Hecz face 7:34 hits hard... Shows how much Seth means to him and optic
No org has ever done it the way optic does. Who’s making content like this? The behind the scenes emotions, so raw. Gonna miss Seth but excited to see the future of optic gaming
A pioneer. An icon. A legend. And one of the best gamers to ever walk on planet Earth. Seth has been a true inspiration to so many people and will continue to do so for years to come. Life simply will not be the same with him out of the pro scene but you best believe life will be even better with him walking into a new journey where he has the freedom to tell a new story through content creation and just be the loving and funny dude that he is. Thank you Scump, you are the true King.👑💚
Would be awesome if someone made a playlist off all of the optic vlogs in chronological order. Watching those old clips of the boys brought back so many great memories 🙏
This episode finally convinced me to buy a jersey. Been with OpTic since the start and could never afford a jersey. Now that I’m a grown man, the time has come. Thank you Seth for everything you’ve done for the sport.
Goddamn man I haven’t cried as much as I have for scumps retirement man other retirements have hurt but this one hits different
Crying? Lmfaoo
@@xApxstle 😐
😂😂😂😂😂 crying?
Geez makes me sad too but grow a pair shedding tears cmon bruh 😂
Ur gay 😭
The quality and storytelling in this is absolutely surreal. Excellent work Shawstin and Roger!
16:15, its insane just how much what hector and the optic guys did for the gaming scene as a whole that really impacted the future of gaming as we know it. The thing that they created has now been replicated by every organization and really set the formula for what a esports player should be doing. Nobody back then really made me latch onto their organization like optic did, and even to this day I haven't really been a fan of a team in that same way. The personalities we had back then were truly special. I've tried to watch other teams from other games, and no personalities or organization has been able to really turn me into a diehard fan like optic did. I use to watch every tournament and even some of the rivals like complexity and faze at that time because all the personalities were just so special. Can't say enough good things about the greenwall and the community hector, nadeshot, scump, big T and so many more built. Truly something I've personally never really seen replicated. Much love hector.
This took me back to watching twitch on my iPod touch in my room late at night. Scump you’ve given more to the people in this community than anyone will ever know how to put to words. Thanks for everything
my whole childhood before my eyes. still sad and tearing up seeing this eventhough its been a month since he retired. thank you scump for amazing memories and giving me something to latch on to and look up to growing up
Whoever produced this process needs a raise. This was a cinematic masterpiece
It’s so weird growing up coming from bein that 11 year old 12 year old kid waiting for the next video from you guys watching the rages the intensity of everything even parting ways throughout high school growing older then to maturing in adulthood back again watching you guys the feeling has never changed n watching this brings so much joy to my heart literal tears to my eyes as we speak man
Shotzzy saying Gordon Ramsay called him nasty had me rolling, this video is the perfect combo of comedy and drama
Hecz is by far the greatest CEO I have ever seen. He genuinely cares about his guys, love that
When I seen that Xbox controller I teared up in nostalgia. Wonderful video, storytelling and creating a family.
Formal saying "I understand with the scrim schedule they gotta get up at 10 everyday and go downtown" lmfao had me dying
😭😭😭
It's hard to see a legend like Scump retire so many of us grew up watching Seth Scump Abner over his long career and where he took the Green Wall where it is today thank you Seth for all the great things and memories you always be King nobody else will take that away from Scump #Opticnation #GreenWall
This hits different grew up in that first optic house and even before that. 25 about to be 26 what a journey.
"Inder you're the fucking best baby!" then drops him a week later :( Much love to iLLeY he always brought the passion
I'm still here watching, still a fan.
I remember I first came across optic from a graffiti video from Hector at the time as I was (still am) into graffiti and tagging... Two beautiful art forms colliding, Thank you Scump for everything you have done, enjoy retirement King 👑💚 (I know I'm late with the post but I've been non stop watching videos since Sunday, I am still so gassed for the boys! Let's go baby! 💚
That thumbnail brings a tear to my eye
Can't believe I just came across this. I remember the OpTic house like it was yesterday. What a career glad I got to watch it.
Illey getting up from the chair and leaving hit hard
gives me the chills watching scump grow so much. Bro has a huge impact on the call of duty community
Damn I literally finished the quotes in the videos. Saying the next lines of his rap at nadeshot. Remembering hecz gag during the water spit video. King. Thank you for childhood scump
I started playing cod with bo2 and I watched every video scump made to improve my game. Watching this almost a year after it’s posted and that it gets me all messed up. LONG LIVE THE KING!
A-MAZ-ING Episode of The Process! Major props to Shawstin and Roger!
I've watched this at least 5 times an I really wish scump didn't retire but I'm proud to be a fan an proud of the mark he has left on the game.
This one hits the feels deep Scump is the goat and an amazing person but hecz without you man who knows where so many people would be you guys are literally my childhood teenage years and into my adult life my son even loves you guys now and this video just pulls on the heart strings for sure I’ve got so much love for you guys and all y’all do #BrickByBrick #GreenWallForLife
I grew up on COD. As a fan, I've been watching this guy compete for a long time. Almost feels like a chapter of your life has closed, when one of the greats of your time retires. I wish Seth all the best and thank you for giving the fans all these years of entertainment.
The speech everytime hits me seeing scump and Hecz with red faces trying not to cry fuck I'm gonna miss him, bro... Love you scump just know you made my childhood with Nade.
I was a Halo player ever since Halo 2, but as a little kid I found this red haired kid that made me love watching competitive cod on UA-cam, I’ve grown with him, it’s crazy how attached you can become to someone you’ve never met.
Beautiful how scump looks to scump like a father figure 😊
What
He is watching it live on stream now before the matches start, that's the context here
18:53 formal on the street after the BO3 champs loss... worst moment as an optic fan. Never been more disappointed
Hope to see Huke with this team for a long time, brings so much life
He's gone next year
Seeing the passion everyone has and showing it in different ways after a decade is just amazing.
25:50 Boze laughing has me crying bro. That shit is hilarious😭
You know it’s serious if Formal shows up.
Seeing someone not being able to continue their love is always hard, especially if its you're childhood idol. Wish you the best in the future. Thank you for all the great memories.
Okay but shoutout to illey for having the respect for Scump to film his parts. That shit was clearly not easy for him
There is not a single more legendary gaming based video on youtube or anywhere ever made. This video is single handedly the greatest video of all time. Its literally a timeline of a goat, a champ, its insane. Hes just a kid. Now more grown, things change. Wonder how these guys will look in the future.
7:32 Hector looking at scumps last time competing,, Just soaking it in for the last run
Thank you scump, and all of OpTic gaming. So many memories. I remember watching the sniper montages as a kid and looking up to you guys. Im 27 and grew up with you. I went through the sniping "faze" and always wanted to be like you guys. I even was one of the early fan boys with OpTic in their name 🤦♂️. Predator and grizz made me a fan. It's incredible the organization you've built H3CZ. I've always been a competitive fan, started in gamebattles, but wasn't good enough. All though I've followed you guys through it all and I really appreciate it. You hate to see scump retire. Much love
H3CZ watching Scump at his station after the Boston match 🥺😢
as someone whos been watching scump play since the original mw2 and been watching hecz since cod4 this brings me to tears no cap. alot of people will never understand how powerful these two are! shoutout to nadeshot too days 1s rambo ray all the guys who held it down for 15 years now its crazy to think about the run optic has had! much love
Everyone who grew up watching scump grow up.. this ones gonna be a hard one :(
Jesus some of these moments gave me goose bumps the the smiley face or the “I’m fucking best look at the scoreboard”
This is why I love following scump man, makes me tear up. Love these guys
damn dude, Optic is so much more then a esports team. This video was phenomenal
The sheer talent in Optic as an org is truly phenomenal. From players, to producers, to content grinders they truly are an inspiration to us all and we appreciate ALL OF IT! 🔥🔥🔥
I was playing in that BO2 tournament at Gamepazzo in Schaumburg Illinois that they first won. Looking back at that clips brings back emotions thank you guys for the memories forever greatful for OpTic greenwall family
Never thought I could cry over this, but here I am crying almost every minute. Grew up on this watching them and playing. 💚
The way this video perfectly encapsulates such a large part of childhood is so beautiful
Amazing video, amazing org. Shaped my childhood and now continues to shape my adult life. Seeing Inder at the end was tough, just hope things work out for all the boys.
Man... when he first announced this was his last season to dropping his retirement video in his kitchen to now reliving all his memories throughout his career.. It always just hits sooo deep... I catch myself with tears falling down my face remembering where I was in those times... I didn't catch competitive COD until BO2, but I was a kid wanting to be like Seth and falling in love with OpTic competitively and with their content. I knew I had a passion for gaming and still do, but I didn't think I'd be as touched by an individuals career as much as Seth's. Don't be sad that it's over.. be happy because it happened :')
Brick by brick. Greenwall.
Man. I had to wait two days to watch this because I knew I was gonna sob. What a legend. one of the best content pieces to come out recently. the shots of Hecz peeking around the curtain like a proud papa.. man, that moment might be iconic of his care for his org and the people in it. OPTIC IS FAMILY>
Man, I watched Scump and Hector when I was growing up. CoD4 and MW2(2009) were huge games for me. It's sad to see him go, but I'm glad he's staying around for the fans. I'm 27 now, but I still check in on you guys occasionally.
Man watching this really bring me back all the way to mw2 and how much cod has change and how much these guys meant to me growing up I love Scump and nadeshot and also Rip to the pros that have passed away since all these years 🙏🏾
Love that Hector is the boss, not only that. The guy is one of the boys as well. He is as selfless as they come. Much respect to that guy
Ive been a optic fan for 11 years now im going on 25!! Optic has always gotten me out of my hard spots because their lives are so relatable to mine. ive dreamt of being part of the process since i was a kid. Seeing scump retire blows my mind!! Hes the older brother you always wanted in gaming man. Wish nothing but success and happiness for this guy because he did a lot for al ot of us throughout all these years!! GO SCUMPER!! SLAY OUT BOYS
Love that Nadeshot was featured and participated. You can’t tell the story of either of those 2 dudes without each other.
y’all are amazing man, thanks for the childhood ❤
The quality of the shots and especially the editing blow me away every time...those guys do an awesome job everytime
I've never met any of these guys but throughout my childhood I looked up to Seth not only as a professional gamer but as a inspiration. Such a genuine guy in every aspect and I hope life is the best for him no matter the circumstances. WE LOVE YOU SCUMPI!
In the end I just hope it’s what truly made Seth happy. Cause decisions like this, it is really all on them to feel. Yes, as fans we can feel but it is nothing compared to what they feel. And Seth is a human being first and foremost. So his feelings matter. All love to Seth on this one man ♥️
Wow that made me cry . I remember being a little kid playing mw2 and 3 and black ops always hearing optic and faze shredding. It blows my mind I didn’t understand at first but I get it now. I get why he left. We respect you scump and you’ll never be forgotten. I’m proud of u I wish I could be like you. AlwYs dreamt of being a pro gamer never happened lol. 🙏🙏
Man….this one hit hard 😢 I’ve been watching this guy play since I was 12. What an amazing career!
Man as part of the green wall and having been watching the journey this tugs on my heartstring...Loved watching you play Scump and can't wait to see all the things you do moving forward!
