Battlefield 6 beta brought plenty of action, but one streamer stood out by using the defibrillator in a rather unexpected way. Instead of just reviving teammates, Lirik ran around the maps gleefully zapping opponents back to life, or rather, back to defeat. It’s a quirky twist on a support tool that usually saves allies.
Playing support with a defibrillator means charging it up and reviving downed teammates instantly. Pretty straightforward, right? Well, Lirik took that idea and flipped it. He used the defibrillator to eliminate enemies, shocking entire lobbies with his electric antics. It’s a bit like rubbing his hands together in mischief before delivering the zap, which made for some entertaining streams over the beta weekends.

His approach wasn’t just a one-time thing. Lirik kept up the defib spree during the latest beta sessions, joking about taking resurrecting seriously, even if it meant only helping downed players on the way to his next kill. That’s quite the strategy. You wouldn’t expect a defibrillator to be a weapon of choice, but he proved otherwise.
Other streamers weighed in, too. Former pro player Shroud called Battlefield 6 a “banger” and suggested revisiting the previous game to really appreciate the improvements this new title brings. It seems the beta sparked some positive reactions despite a few UI grumbles from players.
Speaking of which, the developers acknowledged feedback about the user interface and promised the main menu will be “constantly tweaked and refined.” Bigger maps than those in the beta are also confirmed to arrive at launch, which should add more room for moments like Lirik’s defib escapades.
Wondering how a defibrillator can become such a surprising tool in a shooter? Well, maybe that’s what the developers didn’t expect either. It’s kinda funny to see a gadget designed for teamwork turn into a weapon of chaos, and it adds a new layer of fun to the game.
