A Twitch streamer’s dachshund turns heads online by pitching in during a heated game session.
A U.K. Twitch streamer, @poopernoodle, has everyone talking. Her little dachshund named Pea just stole the show in a clip that’s spreading like wildfire. Shared by Dexerto on X yesterday, this 91-second video captures Pea helping out in Marvel Rivals. She presses a big blue button that fires off a healing move. @poopernoodle boasts about 23,000 followers on X her Twitch count sits near 98,000. Usually, Pea just chills in the background. Not this time. She stepped up as a real teammate.
A tweet from X.
The clip kicks off with the streamer laying out her idea.
“We are going to see if we can find a game that Pea and I can play with her special button,”
She says. They warm up first.
“Pea, can you press the button? Good girl!” And then: “Can you ring the bell? Good girl. Look at you, so clever.”
Things heat up in the actual match. It’s on the Hell’s Heaven map. @poopernoodle picks Jeff the Land Shark, a support character. His big trick? A bubble that heals 250 HP. She calls on Pea at key spots.
“They need some bubbles, Pea. Can you press the button?”
Pea hits it heals fly to allies like Invisible Woman. The streamer can’t hold back.
“Oh, she pressed it, she pressed it. Oh my goodness, good girl.”
Later:
“This is such a special moment.”
They win the round. The screen shows 892 healing done. She cheers:
“Looks like we’re gonna win this round. And it’s all thanks to you. Yeah, because she’s so good. We’ve done 892 healing.”
Everything happens in that cozy purple-pink setup. LED lights glow Pea’s on her bed. Chat goes nuts. Memes pop up fast – stuff like
“My teammates could never.”
Dexerto’s post blew up quick. Over 29,000 likes now; around 2,500 reposts; close to 930,000 views in under two days. The original from @poopernoodle hit TikTok on November 22. That’s past one million views. A follow-up video there pulled over 934,000 likes.
Marvel Rivals comes from NetEase and Marvel Games. It’s a 6v6 shooter open beta started late last year. Players love the hero battles. Jeff’s bubble needs spot-on timing. Pea’s role makes it funny – and kind of amazing. @poopernoodle got her there with treats. Positive rewards linked the button to heals. Pea learned quick.
This fits a bigger picture in gaming. Streamers try wild stuff pets joining in custom gadgets for access odd control hacks. It shows simple tweaks can open doors. Games get more fun more people join. In a world of tough online play, moments like this remind us why we tune in – for the unexpected joy.
As gaming blends with everyday life, stories like Pea’s highlight creativity’s power. They build communities spark ideas. With @poopernoodle hinting at more, expect Pea back soon. In ranked queues full of frustration, a dog’s heal might just be the boost we need.
