Born Matthew Haag on the 3rd August 1992 in Palos Hills, Illinois USA, he is a former professional Call of Duty player, best known under the name Nadeshot. During his career, he has won several prestigious gaming events, including the Call of Duty XP World Championship, and also won the gold medal at Major League Gaming X Games in 2014, among other accomplishments.
Have you ever wondered how rich Nadeshot is, as of late 2017? According to authoritative sources, it has been estimated that Nadeshot’s net worth is as high as $2 million, an amount earned largely through his successful gaming career, active since 2008.
Nadeshot Net Worth $2 Million
The son of Jeff Haag, a carpenter and his wife Christina, he grew up in Palos Hills with his brother and sister, and was educated at Amos Alonzo Stagg High School, from where he matriculated in 2010, and then enrolled at Moraine Valley Community College, where he completed a two-year course in business studies.
In order to support himself, Nadeshot was in need of a real job, and he found one at a McDonald’s restaurant. However, being a video game lover, he really wanted to earn money from playing video games; this had started long before he was working at McDonald’s, but hadn’t quite been successful. He played such games as Halo 2 and Gears of War, and then when he was 16 he made his professional debut, playing Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare.
In 2010 he joined OpTic Gaming team and in no time became a valuable member of the team. He won the Call of Duty XP Championship with OpTic Gaming in the 2011-12 season, and Call of Duty: Black Ops II 2012-2013 season finals with OpTic Gaming, which certainly helped increase his net worth to a large degree, as he won the $100,000 money prize. In 2014 he became the winner of the MLG Championship at the X Games in Austin, Texas, in Call of Duty World Championships, further increasing his net worth. Since then, he hasn’t had much success, aside from winning the Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare in the 2014-2015 season, further increasing his net worth. He captained the OpTic team during the 2015 Call of Duty Championship Tournament, however, he left the team later that year, and in 2016 started his own gaming team, called 100 Thieves.
He is now serving as the manager of his own team which, in addition to competing in Call of Duty franchise events, will also give a try to the “League of Legends” video game competitive events, as they have signed League of Legends players Meteos, Ryu and Ssumday.
Nadeshot is also popular on YouTube; his self-named channel has close to three million subscribers, and his videos have been viewed more than 455 million times, which has also contributed to his net worth. Also, he has another channel – Nadeshot Plays – on which he posts videos of himself playing several games such as Black Ops 2, Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siege and Fortnite Battle Royale among others. He has now amassed a following of over a million subscribers, and videos on this channel have been viewed nearly 100 million times, which has also contributed to his net worth.
To speak further of his accomplishments, thanks to his massive success, Nadeshot has received sponsorships from numerous brands, including Red Bull, Astro Gaming and Scuf Gaming, and was named the best e-sports player for 2014 at The Game Awards that year.
Regarding his personal life, Nadeshot tends to keep his most intimate details hidden from the public eye, therefore, no reliable information is available in the media regarding any romantic associations, and other interest, outside his professional career. However, he has been connected with fellow gamer and YouTuber Jenna Ezarik, but the rumors haven’t been confirmed by the two.
