Scump built himself a career with Call of Duty, but now that he’s retired, he also gets to play and stream other games like XDefiant. Whatever game he plays, Scump’s always competitive and often adjusts his settings like sensitivity, keybinds, and graphics to perfection.
While most settings are up to personal preferences, I usually cross reference my layouts with veterans like Scump. Players of his caliber can often considers aspects of play I could miss, so Scump’s settings allowed me to double-check my configurations.
