The Australian streamer “Obey Vauxie” used an extravagant strategy to motivate her teammates in Call of Duty: Warzone to revive her. She offered spicy photos in exchange for help. And indeed, teammates rushed to her immediately.
Who is Obey Vauxie? On her Facebook profile, she introduces herself as “Australian creator, FPS [First Person Shooter] enthusiast, and Call of Duty queen” (via Facebook). She is active as a content creator on Twitter-, TikTok-, Instagram- and YouTube.
On her channels, you can find several clips where she plays Call of Duty. Among them are three short videos where the streamer demonstrates a special tactic to get her teammates to revive her. Twice she was successful, once less so.
Here you see a trailer for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II:
“Hey, can you please revive me? I will send you foot pictures”
On July 25, 2022, Obey Vauxie released a video clip on Twitter, in which she needs a revive in CoD: Warzone. So she asks her teammates in English: “Hey, can you please revive me? I will send you foot pictures.”
On the map, the teammate is seen rushing to the streamer, but he dies on the way to her. But immediately, backup comes in the form of another teammate to Obey Vauxie.
The streamer then repeats her offer, and indeed the other player promptly gets to her revive. In-game, Obey Vauxie jumps up and enthusiastically says: “Let’s go! New duo, hello!”
Here you can see the English clip:
A second clip shows how successful Obey Vauxie is with her strategy in CoD. Here she offers nude pictures for a revive. Obey Vauxie seems somewhat surprised by how quickly her teammate comes to her and revives her. The streamer then thanks him.
Here you can see the Twitter clip:
Under the video, the streamer commented: “The easiest way to make strangers revive you.” Behind that, there was a laughing smiley.
Why does Obey Vauxie make the videos? Under the Twitter video, several users asked whether the streamer really sent the pictures. She did not answer that. However, she states on her Twitter channel that she sees her content as satire and calls it trolling videos (via Twitter).
It can be assumed that she therefore did not actually send the pictures to the other players but instead wants to produce videos for her channels and entertain.
Did Obey Vauxie’s strategy always work? In one of her TikTok videos, the streamer offered her teammates her bathwater in exchange for revives. Consequently, her CoD colleagues jumped into the sea of the map one by one and drowned. Obey Vauxie laughed and said: “They absolutely did not want my bathwater” (via TikTok).
It is noticeable from her content that Obey Vauxie plays with very physical themes and may want to provoke a little. She also does not seem to take herself too seriously, but also pokes fun at gaming clichés, as can be seen in the bathwater exchange.
Another topic currently engaging the CoD community is a new anime bundle in Vanguard.
