in his 10-year journey on youtube technoblade has changed the lives of millions from inspiring an entire generation to raising hundreds of thousands in his fight against cancer today we're covering it all so join me as today we remember the legacy of technoblade [Music] just under two years ago i began work on a video a telling of a story that inspired me to start youtube a story of a man who accomplished the seemingly impossible in minecraft over and over and over again the legend of technoblade the success of that video changed my life and without that video without technoblade i wouldn't be where i am today but i'm far from the only one with this story techno whether he knew it or not has changed the lives of countless people inspiring them to find their creativity and make something truly amazing and today that is the story i'm going to tell today i am going to finish the legend of technoblade our story continues in the aftermath of his great duel against stream as tens of millions watched in one of the highest stakes duels in minecraft history technoblade had beaten his greatest rival and with a final swing of the axe his rivalry with dream was finally over but with the end of one era comes the beginning of another as less than a month later dream invited technoblade to the dream smp as soon as he joined the server it was clear he was different not an ounce of fear could be found inside him and he swore to stand by his pursuit of anarchy at any cost he caused chaos destruction captivating hundreds of thousands of live viewers and whenever his moment came he would always over deliver until he decided to retire his work was done the kingdom had fallen and so he retreated far away to live out his life in peace but then something happened that would change the course of the story the previous main writer and one of techno's best friends wilbur stepped down leaving the story to the other players to continue and as he's done since the start of his career when techno faced a challenge he charged ahead with the help of tommy and dream techno began to write crafting a story even deeper and more expansive than ever before an unlikely friendship shocking finale and a cliffhanger for the ages the people loved it the dream smp after losing its main writer was bigger than ever but he wasn't done yet techno's story continued to capture the hearts of everyone who watched his audience growing bigger and bigger with every stream another phenomenon destruction chaos nearly a million people watched live as he decimated lemanberg again techno had taken over the dream smp he was on top of the world hurdling towards 10 million subscribers technoblade was unstoppable but at the end of one era a new era begins and the next chapter of his life would present the greatest challenge of them all a challenge far different from those that came before a challenge that would come to represent his true strength and show the world that technoblade wasn't just a character but who alex really was august 27th two months since technoblade's last live stream no tweets no updates nothing but silence the community missed his sarcastic jokes and shameless plugs and so when he uploaded an update video to his channel everyone let out a sigh of relief and started to watch as the video began everything seemed normal it had been a long time since techno played beboards but other than that nothing seemed to be wrong until it was and the words that came out next sent chills down the spine of every last person who clicked on that video technoblade had cancer silence the words hung in the air for what felt like forever all of the adventures years of ups and downs were all felt with the absence of sound the community was crushed one of the most beloved creators in the community in inspiration to so many now hung in the balance of an uncertain future but techno wasn't ready for the grieving to begin just yet if he'd learned anything in his nine years on youtube it's that no battle is over no fight is lost until the very end and as far as techno was concerned the war had just begun over the next month he strategized preparing one final offensive something bigger than every other battle he'd fought before techno would join the war on cancer and so he got to work eventually coming up with a three-fronted attack against the heartless disease first would be the charity livestream where he would request the help of his extremely wealthy audience by enacting the most powerful donation incentive of them all making his life miserable in minecraft of course second he knew he needed to expand his army as wealthy as his own audience was it was a small piece of the much larger minecraft community and so to increase his reach as far as possible techno created a fundraiser through youtube giving which essentially allows any youtuber to attach a donation button under their video for no cost or detriment to the creator this meant by pure pressuring other youtubers into attaching the fundraiser to their video the message could spread quickly much farther than techno could do by himself but he wasn't done as on the third front he would use the second best donation incentive possible merch by creating merch and donating a portion of the profits to the same cancer research fund as the other two sources he would essentially trick his audience into donating three times the plan was absolutely flawless perfectly designed to raise the most money possible and most of all showing that techno was not going down without a fight and so with the plan in place all he had to do was fight his own side of the war and watch the greatest most noble battle of his career begin [Music] so [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Music] the war on cancer was a roaring success the livestream had raised over three hundred thousand dollars the youtube fundraiser stood at just over one hundred thousand dollars and the merch was flying off the shelves he had done it brought the community together in one last uprising and against all odds techno had raised over half a million dollars for cancer research but on his end of the battle things weren't looking as good on december 23rd techno uploaded another video explaining how the situation in his shoulder was not looking much better he explained that over the past few months he nearly needed a full right arm amputation but after some back and forth with the doctor settled instead on an operation that spared the arm by taking tissue from other parts of the body and after the procedure was over 99.9 of the cancer was gone but 99.9 is still a far cry from 100 and the battle wasn't over yet but there was one more thing he mentioned in that video a goal he'd set nearly a year before his final goal on youtube to reach 10 million subscribers by the end of 2021 and as of that video's release with eight days left in the year techno was still four hundred thousand away it seemed like a lost cause four hundred thousand subscribers in a week is unheard of but learning from techno his community saw the challenge and charged ahead they knew that techno had been through too much gone too far not to hit his goal and suddenly everyone's mission became clear subscribe to technoblade days passed his sub count grew faster than ever before 300 000 away 200 000 it was going to be close and on december 31st less than 24 hours before the end of the year technoblade passed 10 million subscribers one last time the community proved its power and that techno's never-ending bravery and dedication he'd shown every step of the way wouldn't go unrecognized technoblade had officially completed his last goal on youtube and so the final stretch of the battle was set in motion over the following months donations continued to roll in the community continued to fight for techno hoping that the worst had passed until he uploaded one more new video starting a survival series in virtual reality the community was relieved it finally seemed to be over but then silence a week a month two months nothing until on june 30th 2022 one final video was uploaded to the channel narrated by technoblade's dad in one of the bravest actions a person can take sitting down in front of the world and confronting tragedy head-on just as his son always did he explains that techno has tragically passed from cancer silence once again hanging in the air for what seemed like eternity an inspiration to tens of millions of people one of the hardest working and talented creators on all of youtube was just gone but just as techno did all that time ago the community refused to stay quiet and so together friends fans and creators from all across the world paid their respects to the king of minecraft [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] in his 10-year journey on youtube technoblade has left a mark on this world few can claim to have made and the legacy he left behind in everything he did from the very beginning to the very end will keep him alive forever it's difficult to overstate technoblade's impact on hypixel the perks and kits he created for skywars remain some of the most important and used in the game today the bedwars win streak record techno helped set with the phone is still unchallenged as the highest bedwars win streak of all time and it doesn't seem to be going

and left marks on every member of the server that will never be forgotten and even when his mortality stood in question he laughed in its face but he also turned his condition into something much bigger than himself taking his battle with cancer and turning it into a revolution and through his minecrafters vs cancer fundraiser as well as his charity stream and merch campaigns techno has
