Oblivion

Oblivion is the undisputed authority on trap bases in Rust — the creator who has spent over a decade dedicated to one singular question: what's the most devious way to make another player regret entering your base. With 748K subscribers and 168 million total views across 1,145 videos since June 2015, he's one of the most-watched Rust creators in history and the benchmark against which every other trap base creator on the roster is measured.

His format is relentlessly inventive — tripwire labyrinths, oven prisons that physically trap players inside large furnaces, bases designed to look abandoned and inviting before snapping shut, automatic trap systems built while he sleeps, and now the new Mortar abused in ways Facepunch almost certainly didn't anticipate. Each video is a new experiment in exploiting player psychology as much as game mechanics — the trap isn't just the electrical circuit or the building layout, it's the assumption that an open door means safety. Eleven years in, he's still finding new ways to prove that assumption wrong. If Memeio is the electrical wizard and Dirtrider479 is the trap base documentarian, Oblivion is the one who invented the genre.
