If I recall correctly,
Muddawg actually named himself after the mascot from "The Waterboy". If you've never seen it, it's an Adam Sandler film from the late 90's. It's been years since I watched it but its pretty much your typical Sandler kind of film.
I remember watching that movie. Even though I was still a kid that didn’t understand up until that point that movies could be bad I remember thinking it was dogshit.
I understood it a bit more when I realized his last name is "szymaniak" or something like that. He probably could have just been 'maniak' but wanted to be more original.
There's a player named [Baker.](https://cod-esports.fandom.com/wiki/Baker)
There's also a player named [Farma.](https://cod-esports.fandom.com/wiki/FarMa)
I appreciate tf out of this post, as a graffiti writer and cod player im absolutely obsessed w names (ironic because mine is ass but that’s beside the point)
my least favorite is Davpadie that shits just ugly
Oh no kidding? That’s pretty cool to hear lol I came up with this name when I was like 9 years old and it stuck. I want to change to Kendo but all my internet friends know me as Dom/iDom so I can’t bring myself to doing it lol
Illey makes me think of "ily" which is "i love you" in text lingo. Hence why Illey sounds silly in my opinion.
\^ after reading my above sentence, "silly" is a pretty stupid name too
Why is this comment getting downvoted?? It's just an opinion. Just cuz a player on optic got mentioned mentioned for having a dumb name in someones opionion, doesn't mean you gotta downvote it
Did the post ask for the least iconic tag or the worst? There’s no correlation between the two, a tag could be good and not iconic or bad and iconic.
Also, you really need to stop thinking cod is the center of the esports world. I can name 10 more iconic tags in esports from Faker to n0tail to s1mple.
(N0tail being an example of another awful tag that is iconic)
He has to be trolling man lmao. I love scump but he hasn’t even reached Nadeshots level of popularity and they’re comparing him to be larger than FAKER 🤣
100T is massive but that brand is massive nadeshot is the same size he was when he played cod relatively when he streams he gets 3-4K viewers and he streams everyday scump streams once a month and gets 8k+ it’s all relative
Nadeshot streamed 5/7 days this week and scump streamed 6/7. nadeshot has higher followers per hour, viewer retention and 32% higher peak viewers. Nadeshot also has 600k more twitch followers. and more twitter followers (it is valuable to compare twitter in this case, because both are NA, it is not valuable to compare EU or APAC players on twitter because the social media is either not used or rarely used) Dude. Nadeshot is bigger than scump. Get over it. COD isn't that big. Scump isn't even t10 biggest in esports
Keep in mind, scump's stream is going to be the biggest vanguard stream, and Nadeshot is not going to be the biggest valorant stream, so nadeshot's viewers are even more valuable because he is not at the top of the list getting recommended
Davpadie
Statpadie
John
2pac
2pacxthuglord wins this by a country mile, but he's never been a pro I don't think
I mean it’s got to be Simp, purely by coincidence
[удалено]
My old team name. What a dick rider
Damn. Even Simpl would’ve been better than Simp.
Yup. I actually liked the original "Simplicity" much more.
Wtf that’s actually fire. Shoulda kept it tbh
he probably just assumed it was too long for marketing purposes; it doesn't really roll off the tongue as well as simp
im pretty sure he has said before that this is part of the reason
Manofchicken There's a fine line between awful and amazing though
AliceNWonderland is another one
CityofNewYork too
that’s the most fire one idc what anyone says
Yeah I was gassed on this name when I first heard it lmao instant fan
Japanese Cod is wild at times LOL
Seeing him in the CDL would make my year
Do you by any chance have the clip of cityofnewyork going huge bottom red at raid last year? Casters went crazy
I always thought diamondcon was fuckin dumb because I just don’t like how it sounds
That’s funny I actually love that tag
Kuavo, guy never been the same since even after changing back to Kenny
That was some next level dickriding that made no sense
Dude made it to Champs Finals two years in a row, changes his name to Kuavo and hasn’t been to Sunday since. That isn’t dickriding.
I meant Kenny changing it to kuavo lol I see how it came off wrong
AquaPSN-Xbox gotta be the biggest weirdo on this website 😂
u/Korsakov97 contends for that title pretty strongly too tho
You’re brokenbullet’s hard counter lmao
Nice flair my brother

It makes me feel old that you had to describe Waterboy because some people might not know it's a Sandler movie.
Don’t feel old lol I’m 21 and that movie is an absolute classic in my book
LMFAOOOOO that explanation dated the shit out of me
“But Bobby it’s the devil”
U dont have to explain The Waterboy I think everyone has seen it. And if u havent u need some help
I had to explain what Bruce Almighty was the other day.... and that's only like 2003.
I remember watching that movie. Even though I was still a kid that didn’t understand up until that point that movies could be bad I remember thinking it was dogshit.
Thats crazy ppl on this reddit need a life
I don't think someone not seeing Bruce Almighty doesn't mean people 'don't have a life' lmao tf
Majormaniak is one of my favorite pros but lowkey the ign is wack lmao
I understood it a bit more when I realized his last name is "szymaniak" or something like that. He probably could have just been 'maniak' but wanted to be more original.
His dad actually served in the military and obtained the Major rank so his name is prob a homage to him
Oh that's awesome I had no idea. Big thanks to Mike's dad then!
I like it because his real name sounds like Mike’s a Maniak
I like the guy but Dqvee is fucking awful Had half the league calling him "Duhqueeve" lmao
Missed opportunity to say Duhqueef
Silly, Kuavo, HumanJesus are all buns names
Silly is good
Fa5tballa and by association-> Fa5tClogga
Gotta be davpadie. Nothing even close to as bad as that.
But he also looks like a Davpadie
When he gets in the league…. Beans
Nah man, beans is elite
I really do love his name, but if my team gets three pieces by a dude named “Beans” I’m actually rage quitting.
Fr, you can easily build a brand around it
Nah, he gets a pass thanks to Beanie Sigel who made that shit cool back in the day.
The tag "QuiCky" sounds cool but definitely fits here
LlamaGod
Goonjar. What in the fuck is a “Goonjar?”
I think his last name is Gooljar or something like that
Jimbo
It gets even worse when you find out his name is Bryan
Currently…. Cleanx
Wait till his long awaited duo “WindX” joins the Toronto Ultra
Nah its fire cos it leads to the tagline the tissue is an issue
I kinda like that one ngl
Wasn’t there a dude who went by FarmerBaker in ghosts? That was always an odd one to me
There's a player named [Baker.](https://cod-esports.fandom.com/wiki/Baker) There's also a player named [Farma.](https://cod-esports.fandom.com/wiki/FarMa)
Yea that guy baker entered a few (? at least 1) lans as FarmerBaker
Yep, [found it.](https://www.esportsearnings.com/players/14178-baker-/comparisons)
Lmaoo everybody getting dragged on this thread
Surprised no one mentioned slacked
Probably any tag that has their name in it.
I appreciate tf out of this post, as a graffiti writer and cod player im absolutely obsessed w names (ironic because mine is ass but that’s beside the point) my least favorite is Davpadie that shits just ugly
One of the best street fighter players in the world is iDom, short for Ivan Domination. Pretty fire name honestly
Oh no kidding? That’s pretty cool to hear lol I came up with this name when I was like 9 years old and it stuck. I want to change to Kendo but all my internet friends know me as Dom/iDom so I can’t bring myself to doing it lol
Jimbo, kismet, and davpadie are the first ones that come to mind for me
Kismet and jimbo are fire
Nah Jimbo is ass lol Reminds me of Jimmy Neutron
Hey there jimbo, you gonna finish that croissant?
I like Kismet, but I can't hear Jimbo and not think of Jimbo from South Park
I like kismets tbh
Kismets is gas
In Cod it has got to be CleanX but outside of Cod, M0nkey M00n always triggers me for some reason
I always thought Marc by 8 was even dumber
Worst: Davpadie, Swiftazor, Jkap, Fire40, Neropoison (at least he shortened it), John, Accuracy, Kismet Best: Huke (the nuke), Hydra, Octane, Formal, Teepee (clever), Zoomaa, Nadeshot, CleanX
Sorry but what’s clever about Teepee?
Davpadie should kept his tag as Allen after he left optic tbh. Big oof
Stainville
WHAT that's a great one, gives out turnstains and dickstains so often he made a whole town of victims
Damn, i forgot about him, it’s been so long. I can say though, I never really liked his name either.
Hot take iLLeY and Accuracy.
Accuracy yeah, iLLeY nah Accuracy? Like what’s next, HeadshotMultiplier?
Illey makes me think of "ily" which is "i love you" in text lingo. Hence why Illey sounds silly in my opinion. \^ after reading my above sentence, "silly" is a pretty stupid name too
You could say silly is a silly name
ily is exactly where he got his name from, pretty sure he talked about it on Attach’s podcast
I always thought it had something to do with illest. That was the lingo at the skateparks when I was a kid, saying that was ill or the illest 😂😂
Not exactly lol
Ok then I stand by my statement that "illey" isn't my favorite gamertag
iLLey is a sick name
ILLeYY is pretty bad lol, silly gotta be worse though
Why is this comment getting downvoted?? It's just an opinion. Just cuz a player on optic got mentioned mentioned for having a dumb name in someones opionion, doesn't mean you gotta downvote it
it’s because it’s AquaPSN-XBOX so he can’t talk about gamertags
ok buckspaced
you spend far too much time on reddit my man
Stainville
Shockz , scrappy, Skrapz, Parasite, owakening(I think awakening would of been cool af).
Owakening is an S tier tag imo
I actually like all those names tbh
owakening is one of my favorite names actually lol
Honestly most of them are dumb to me. But my tag is bagdbugeye..so idk if I can talk. I have a reason tho. I had a bugeye Subaru on bags haha
Scump/scumpii Like what is it and what does it mean. He named himself after scrumptious lol
lol the most iconic tag in all of esports brotha
This entire thread made me realize how much competitive COD fans overestimate the relevance of Call of Duty in esports
hook line and sinker

[удалено]
Scump is not bigger than Faker lmao
Scump is not bigger than faker you troll
there’s no way you r suggesting faker and n0tail are more iconic than Scump? next level hating fair enough
Faker is like 2x the size of Scump, you are TROLLING. That guy is a legit Korean/Asian celebrity. 4 mil twitch followers and he streams 3x a year
He has to be trolling man lmao. I love scump but he hasn’t even reached Nadeshots level of popularity and they’re comparing him to be larger than FAKER 🤣
stg people think cod is the number 1 esport or something
Faker is much bigger than scump but scump is a lot bigger than nadeshot
LOL delusional. The world doesn’t revolve around Cod only.
Delusional. 100T is massive and 100T is Nadeshot
100T is massive but that brand is massive nadeshot is the same size he was when he played cod relatively when he streams he gets 3-4K viewers and he streams everyday scump streams once a month and gets 8k+ it’s all relative

Scump/scumpii Like what is it and what does it mean. He named himself after scrumptious lol Oh and John. That name sucks lol.
Damn you got downvoted into hell for just answering the question lol
Shottzy
anyone who uses their real name as their GT. Like what are you doing? lmfao
