A video from Call of Duty: Warzone is currently the center of discussion. The streamer DougisRaw is taken out by an invisible player and thinks it is a cheater – when he himself could be the cheater.
Why is he getting laughs? The streamer DougisRaw recently posted a video on X (formerly Twitter), in which a stream clip of him can be seen. The streamer is playing Call of Duty: Warzone and encounters another player in the Gulag.
The curious thing is, his opponent takes him out, but is invisible to the streamer. In the kill cam, you can see that the opponent is quite visibly standing in front of him, but from the streamer’s perspective, he apparently is not visible.
What seems like a bug could, however, also be an anti-cheat measure that has the streamer in its sights.
Here you can indulge in nostalgia:
The community is outraged and sees the streamer caught
What does the community say about the video? The video has now been viewed over 10 million times on X (formerly Twitter) and has already garnered many comments. The majority of users agree that the streamer is being trolled by the game’s anti-cheat system in the clip.
- Juicedcp comments: “The system thinks you are cheating or maybe you are…”
- Mushroom49ers writes: “It’s the anti-cheat.”
- AlmightyTJM states: “Just stop cheating, man.”

What anti-cheat measure is involved? In Call of Duty: Warzone and MW3, the “Ricochet Anti-Cheat” system is in use. This system utilizes several technologies aimed at limiting the damage that cheaters inflict on the game. Potential cheaters can, for example, lose their weapons or be unable to see their legitimately playing opponents.
The community believes that the last measure would affect the streamer, and he has presumably revealed himself with his video. But there are also doubts that this concerns the anti-cheat system.
Why are there doubts? The online magazine CharlieIntel writes on X (formerly Twitter) that according to their sources, in the clip of DougisRaw, it does not concern the feature of the anti-cheat. Instead, the video actually shows a bug.
A video on YouTube also shows that the anti-cheat system would make the opponent invisible only after a hit. This does not fit with the events in the streamer’s video.

Under the streamer’s video on X (formerly Twitter), FridgeMKE also counters: “It’s a glitch with a specific skin; sometimes phases go invisible. It’s happened to me twice already. I’m not going to say which skin it is, because people will rush to it, but I hope they patch it soon.”
DougisRaw is still not banned and has not had any problems streaming the game since then.
The anti-cheat system of Call of Duty has already caught many players in a trap, who then shared videos on social networks thinking the game treated them unfairly: Player feels bullied by CoD Warzone – Does not realize that he was caught by the anti-cheat system
