Rek is such a wholesome guy, stay positive and keep doing what you're doing. If you and techno had a little time to get to know each other, I'm sure you two would make the best of friends. Keep up the grind brotha ;)
Not was a legend, he is a legend. Technoblade may no longer be here but his story will live on in the hearts of those that remember him, and because of that, he will never die.
I remember feeling the EXACT same way when he died. I never knew him personally or even saw him in Minecraft with my own eyes. Because of this I felt so strange crying when I found out that he died. I still feel weird about it, but the way he made me feel watching his videos made me realize how much of an impact he had on me. He will always be a core part of who I am. Technoblade Never Dies
I feel like lots of us struggle with this. We feel weird grieving for someone we never met. However, the way my therapist put it really helped: We may not have met him, but we knew him. We watched his life, we shared his struggles, and we spent hours listening to his voice. Why would it be bad to grieve someone we knew that well, simply because we never met them?
wow man, thanks for saying this, I never really new who Techno was, and I've never even seen any of his videos, but watching this video, and reading some of these comments, its really hitting me how awesome he is and was, I just want to say thanks to Rek for making this video and to all these great comments, RIP TECHNO
@@jordanharrison496I fell the same way as you I have never seen his videos and I never knew him but it’s still sad when someone dies and he will be missed by millions every day may he rest in peace ❤❤
I was just an average viewer of Techno's, and I was also completely struck by the news that he died. Parasocial relationships are relationships too, it hurts when you lose them. You may even feel grief. He is gone forever and we'll never hear him again. The weight of the word "never" is immense. But all the times when he made us smile are still here and they will always warm my heart. I'm grateful for this.
@@teammeyers3249 1. there's nothing wrong with being an atheist. are you just saying that athiests should go to hell? 2. there's something called "dark humor" and it's when you say stuff like "oh i like killing orphans" but you obviously dont
The fact its already been a year still shocks me. I can still feel the sadness I felt that day, how could it have possibly been that long ago? He was a friend to all of us, even those who never knew him. While he may be gone his legacy and memory shall never die. Thank you Technoblade, and I hope wherever you are now, your at peace. Thank you for reading, have a great day! :D
technos videos are so unique, so laidback that makes them addicting, his personality shined through in his videos, and i think that’s why we all feel so connected to him, technoblade never dies
No matter what Technoblade fought anything and everything he could and no matter what he had a great time. 1999 - forever in our hearts Technoblade never dies...
You know, I didn’t watch a ton of Technoblade videos, but I always respected him and his perseverance in all of his time with cancer. His impact on not only the Minecraft community, but on the internet as a whole is so wholesome and I have always loved the fact that he was so kind to everyone he had interacted with. I was on vacation when I had heard the news, and was with some cousins and when we actually had heard and watched the video, immediately a dozen people were standing there watching the video with us and sharing memories of our favorite moments from his videos. Technoblade never dies.
This feeling of not having a relationship but being completely speechless due to respect and just unknowingness upon finding out/being told was also felt by me and God knows how many people in the minecraft community. Techno never dies
Technoblade’s ability to turn something as simple as Potato Farming into an interesting and attention capturing story is a feat I cannot describe with words alone R.I.P Technoblade
Over the past year I've watched Technoblade's videos again and again. I don't know, maybe a small part of me still had this feeling he could still come back, but every time I reach them I remember he won't return. His passing hit me in a really vulnerable time when I felt that everything I touched became worse, and soon after I watched his videos he passed. For a while I used to visit his island on skyblock and hold tab, and I'd count the days since he last logged in, everyday I'd check with no avail. Sorry for essay dumping, but its just how I experienced technoblade's content and his passing. It's hard to believe it's been a year too. May the legend rest in peace.
This video literally gave me goosebumps . Techno sure would never be forgotten You really spoke from your heart Rek and it was all so pure RIP Techno Fly high King o7
When I heard that techno passed away I cried even though I never watched his video I cried because I know the impact he has on the world he is an inspiration to me and to many more . I would die to see techno blade comeback he is one of those people who will be remembered throughout history. I just wish his family, the viewers and the people he affected to remember him.

@@bignose5 you are the reason people 100 years ago thought we would have flying cars and the cure to cancer by now, but still have guys with big noses stalking their cousings 💀💀💀
Techno really inspires me within all of his videos and likely always will. After his passing, I really started to understand mortality and that anybody can just vanish. Unfortunately, my grandfather also passed the following autumn, which was so sudden I don't even remember when his first symptoms started to appear. I guess what I want to say with this is that life is short and can end shortly, so aspire to live life to your fullest ability, as Techno did. Rest well king.
This was a really good one year reflection. I've watched a lot of them today, including the two you mentioned, and this one made me feel very hopeful. You're right about everything you said about him and I'm really glad that we have such a great legend to pass on in the Minecraft/UA-cam community. People like Techno are so rare and so often the worst humans are exalted on the internet but just this once, we were blessed with an incredible person doing incredible work that had incredible success. I haven't really watched you before but it sounds like you're a lot like him. Technoblade set us all up for lots of different kinds of success with his content by inspiring us the way he did. I hope you find that success yourself. :)
Tbh I felt the same way when I heard the news I felt bad for crying about it because I never knew him but it felt like I did he shall forever remain in our heart rip technoblade 🕊️
It’s understandable that you don’t want to make a video on technoblade, it’s hard to make it seem like you’re not just chasing clout. But you did amazing with this, thank you for making this video and sharing it with us and treating this with the up most respect
I remember when the news broke I never thought I'd be the type of person to cry over someone I never knew personally, but I was very wrong, and that just shows how much Techno has impacted so many lives. Good vid Rek, and Technoblade never dies.
every technoblade video has made me laugh at least once. even the commentaries. i'm just sad there wont be any more. technoblade never dies, rest in peace
Your ability to make me cry again a full year later truly shows how much you've improved and how much of a great person Techno was. Thank you for the video Rekrap.
@@go0fygoob3r Personally you need to understand that people actually have empathy for others and you need to expand upon words past cringe. Because at this point you look like a clown because the only thing you can comment is "cringe". I still remember Juice even though he died nearly 4 years ago and many others too.
I´m rembering this day... when techno died I woked up , did some morning things and went on youtube, techno uploaded a new video "So long nerds" and I started watching and in like 1 minute I started just crying and I didnt know what to do... After that I went on some minecraft servers and everyone was tributing to him and it was so nice to see how TechnoBlade had this impact on communnity
I'm crying all over again - he was a light for millions, with his humor, intelligence, creativity and goodness....he is so sorely missed, Technoblade never dies
It has been really hard for me, and I bet a lot of people can relate to this. I have always thought how much he changed us as people, as a community, and it has felt really weird, especially since I never knew him. The closest I got was being one of his hundreds of thousands of viewers on his stream chat. It has felt really wrong for me having the blow hit so hard, especially when I think that there are so many more people that knew him better. Technoblade Never Dies
You replicated my exact feelings about techno. I found your channel only a few weeks before "so long nerds" and it hit me hard because he was definitely my idol and favorite UA-camr. I just wanted to say that you helped me reconcile back then and now and I see so much of technoblade in you.
I honestly can’t believe that it’s been a year since the legend passed away. I’m very glad the Rekrap posted this video because we all need to be reminded of how great and inspiring TechnoBlade was. The Legend Never Dies. 🐷👑😢
ngl, you already are also a legend to some people. you are one of the kindest persons on youtube alongside the ryan trahan and i really like the energy in your videos and your persistence in doing what you love to do like your grind in speedrunning. one day you will hit 10 million and you wont stop growing and getting more fans and i'm looking forward it
Ngl, Techno meant so much to me. He was a part of my childhood and it's sad that I can't watch any of his videos without shedding a tear. I remember when I found his content for the first time, I was in a hospital because I broke my arm really badly(surgery and all that stuff). I couldn't sleep so I started watching some YT and he popped up in my recommended with a Blitz Survival Games episode. I literally binged all his videos in one night because it distracted me from the pain and I have been a fan ever since. I just loved him just talking about his life while shitting on people in whatever gamemode. I miss him..
I didn't watch Techno before he passed, but after I heard the news I started to watch him and other MCYTs, and now I know so much more about Minecraft and the MCYT community. It's so sad to think about, but I'm really happy the community is honouring him. Rest in peace, Technoblade never dies
Thank you so much for an incredible. I’m actually writing my college essay on the same topic, and appreciated knowing that I was not the only one who felt this way despite having little to no direct connection to Techno.
I was on vacation in Missouri the time tecnoblade died, I was just eating breakfast and my brother came to me and said that tecnoblade was gone. I didn’t believe him at first cause I didn’t know he was going thru cancer but when I got back to our apartment and saw the video, without even watching it I started crying. I don’t even know why, I had only seen a few Videos at the time but it was just so terrible for me and I pay respects to the people who actually knew him I can’t imagine what they went through. Technoblade never dies!
I don't usually feel sadness when I hear about celebrities passing, I didn't feel anything when my own grandfather stopped remembering who I was, or when he passed away. I don't know how and I don't know why, but every time I think about Technoblade, I just break down. Even today, watching this video a year later, I still cried. You are right, rek. Technoblade was and is a legend. It's even in one of his more popular phrases, he never dies.
Man, its strange to think its been a year. It makes me so sad to think that Techno's legend is done growing, but Im happy to know that his legacy will live on. He died a hero to many people
he didnt give us up he didnt let us down he didnt run around and desert us. he didnt make us cry he didnt say goodbye he didnt turn around and hurt you. he will not be forgotten ❤
The whole part about parasocial relationships really hits hart, it's sometimes incredible to see that not only us viewers go through it, but the same CC's we see also can feel like that. It's been a year since he left us, yet the wound is still open
i dont watch techno much when he was still alive but once he died... it just hits hard I enjoyed him if I was hurt this much from a guy I didn't really watch I could dare to even think of how much his dad and friend went through yet he still was not forgotten thanks alex for how much you helped us
I really really do admire his positivity in such a horribly dreadful situation. The fact that even when he knew he was going to die, he still was talking about getting his merch out.
This guy puts effort in this topic even he isn't linked with the topic. It's nice to see you speaking about a person that was THE legend.❤ TECHNOBLADE NEVER DIES. Because he will be remembered every single year.
The one small light I manage to find in all of this is that he had the drive and passion to do all that he did, so that we all could know him just a little and love him an awful lot in the time that we had him. I still can hardly process that he’s gone, and I know that many others feel that tenfold, but I can’t help but be grateful that the stars aligned in such a way that we all got to witness his shining light before he passed, I think you’re completely right in calling him a legend, and as long as we keep enjoying his stories Technoblade truly will never die.
I felt EXACTLY how you did - the sudden realisation, sadness, tears and the weird feeling of "is it okay to cry for someone I don't really know?". Thanks for making this video. It really validates the empty feeling of losing a content creator you never met. I will never forget the community's reaction to it though - you could really see the legacy he left behind. That was the final push I needed to start my channel. Technoblade never dies!
I loved all of Techno's videos. I've watched all of them so, so many times, I've even watched most of his stream vods multiple times. In my friend group I was always 'the Technoblade guy'. Everyone knew I loved Technoblade. _That video_ was uploaded in the middle of the night in my time zone. I woke up in the morning, prepared for school like I would any other day, and just as I was about to leave, I looked at my phone, to see a notification from UA-cam that Techno had uploaded a video. I just read the title of the video and immediately knew what was up. I didn't have time to watch the video though, because I would have been late, and frankly, I simply didn't want it to be true. I went to school, thinking of it throughout the entire day, trying to distract myself, trying to ignore it somehow. When I got home that day I went to my computer to see a discord DM from one of my close friends, asking if I was doing alright, because she knew how much Techno meant to me. I said I was OK, and then finally, reluctantly watched the video.
nothing can replace techno and his legacy, but people like you parker are the ones that can honour what he has contributed to the community of minecraft and beyond, and that starts with your speedrunning commentary. In it's own way it has the same humour and appeal as technoblade's skywars videos and always brings a smile to my face at his memory
This video gains me mad respect for you. Not only have I already been a fan of your videos, content, positivity, after seeing this video made me feel even better about you
SAD-ist’s “technoblade” video made me cry. He was my favorite at the time and to see such a great man fall was heart breaking… It’s good that you made this video, being late is better than not showing up at all!
As a wise man once sed “A person is never truly dead until he is forgotten “ so let’s always remember Technoblade for who he is and the impact he had on people’s lives ❤
I really relate to the feeling of "I didn't know this person personally, why did this effect me so much?". I had lost loved ones before technoblade's passing and I felt wrong for how much the pain was similar though less to the pain from passing of people I had known personally. I woke up seeing dms of my friends talking about it (I live in the UK so when the news struck I was fast asleep) and I had to kind of process all of it while my american friends were asleep. But I think its a good thing to remember that even though we didn't know him personally we still knew a part of him. Like you said, he of course wouldn't be the same on and off camera but it was the same vein of talking to grandparents vs close friends type of thing, it was still a part of him. I don't know if I'm just kinda rambling about points, I feel like I'm repeating what you said in the video at this point my bad. It's a deep pain that we all feel and for anyone reading this who might still really be hurting from techno's passing or a passing of someone they know: It does get better, I promise. I don't believe the grief will ever fully go away and there will still be sad days or moments, but to grieve is to have loved.
When ever I watch a technoblade tribute, I get a little emotional, but then I somewhat get stronger inside, and reflecting on technoblade's death has made me realise time and time again to stop giving in to the pains I suffer now. And this video is one of the best....
There's been a lot of tributes to techno these past few days, and I have watched a few. I noticed how most of them were similar, or as similar as people can be. rek's approach to his death somehow moved me. All the other tributes I've watched never did that. His approach was so different that when I started the video I thought I didn't LIKE his tribute, or that it wasn't enough to make up for what happened. Now I realize that this video, however simplistic or short it is, is a masterpiece in itself. It didn't make me cry, it didn't make me sad, I only.... left me at peace with what has happened. Thank you rek.
I was never even in a voice chat, or server with Techno, but even so I feel the grief from everyone around him after his passing. I loved his videos, and watching his dad's video about his death brought me to tears, and I was on vacation just thinking about what he meant to me. The sadness, and stories everyone shared, or could share could fill a warehouse with happiness and laughter but also sadness, self-reflection and thoughts to what am I worth to other people. Seeing your reaction helps me to gauge one thing. TechnoBlade or by his real name- Alex will be a hero, and role model to all who even experienced his videos, and to his loved ones he will forever mean more than most of us can imagine. TechnoBlade Never Dies
i got the same thing, i knew him but i wasn t his #1 fan, but when i woke up, saw the video, watched it i went for a bike ride and in the middle of the road i stopped and started crying
First video I ever watched of Technoblade was a Mega Walls video. I watched him since I was about 11, and now I'm in college. I remember me and my friend got killed by him in a BSG game once, and it was great. It's weird to see someone that you enjoyed watchin and who inspired you pass away. You never met them, you were never friends, and they never even knew you existed, yet they still managed to play an important role in your life
I loved techblade and I cried when I saw him go but end the end he impacted us in a good way. He is a legend and will always be one. Techo never died. R.I.P Alex. Also gtg Parker for quarter mil subs!! GG
Well, I just finished crying at Tommy’s tribute, guess I’m going in for round two. But in all seriousness, thank you for making this. I think we were all impacted in some way by Techno’s passing, so thank you for sharing yours. We will never forget Technoblade. He will never die. o7
I remember when my mom told me he died. I was on a road trip in the US (I’m from Canada) so I had my cell data turned off. My mom told me the news and I felt pressured not to cry because my brother disses me for liking mcyt. When she told me, a big part of my life died along with him and I felt so alone with nobody that would understand me. RIP king, Technoblade never dies. ❤❤❤
Rek, thank you for this vid. And not only for this one. It is always good to talk about life, problems, news, happy moments. Nobody doesnt know when he will die. It's better to say (something) than to miss a chance to do it. I watched Techno's vids for a good, but then in one of his vids I noticed words about cancer in his arm. It really stroke my head(my mom died to it when i was 12). The more time there was between videos, the more I worried. But then. One evening I got notification from his channel. I was relieved. But it wasnt his usuall vid... the more time there was between videos, the more I worried. In the past year I have watched it ~8 times. It still makes me cry. Technoblade never dies
one of the reasons I first started wacthing you was beacause I loved your enthusiasm, your humer, you make me exited everytime you post a new video. thank you rek
I remember being in Scotland on vacation at the time, I cam back from hiking up this gorgeous mountain, and got on my phone, when to UA-cam, and saw "so long nerds" and I just knew. I knew that that was the end. I cried for a day straight, because Techno was more than a content creator, he was more than an inspiration to millions of kids such as myself, he was a new era of entertainment, he was Technoblade, and there is no one that I can use as a comparison that would be even close to on the same level. So with that being said, TECHNOBLADE NEVER DIES BABY!

Technoblade was such a good person and just like rek said, the impact he left on everybody when he passed just showed how much he was a legend.

His passing hit me in a really vulnerable time when I felt that everything I touched became worse, and soon after I watched his videos he passed.

You're right about everything you said about him and I'm really glad that we have such a great legend to pass on in the Minecraft/UA-cam community. People like Techno are so rare and so often the worst humans are exalted on the internet but just this once, we were blessed with an incredible person doing incredible work that had incredible success.
I haven't really watched you before but it sounds like you're a lot like him. Technoblade set us all up for lots of different kinds of success with his content by inspiring us the way he did. I hope you find that success yourself. :)
Tbh I felt the same way when I heard the news I felt bad for crying about it because I never knew him but it felt like I did he shall forever remain in our heart rip technoblade 🕊️
It’s understandable that you don’t want to make a video on technoblade, it’s hard to make it seem like you’re not just chasing clout. But you did amazing with this, thank you for making this video and sharing it with us and treating this with the up most respect
I remember when the news broke I never thought I'd be the type of person to cry over someone I never knew personally, but I was very wrong, and that just shows how much Techno has impacted so many lives. Good vid Rek, and Technoblade never dies.
every technoblade video has made me laugh at least once. even the commentaries. i'm just sad there wont be any more. technoblade never dies, rest in peace
Your ability to make me cry again a full year later truly shows how much you've improved and how much of a great person Techno was. Thank you for the video Rekrap.
Personally, that's cringe to cry about someone dying a year later
@@go0fygoob3r Personally you need to understand that people actually have empathy for others and you need to expand upon words past cringe. Because at this point you look like a clown because the only thing you can comment is "cringe". I still remember Juice even though he died nearly 4 years ago and many others too.
@@Sakiiboo woman moment
@@go0fygoob3roh so if ur parents died (if u even have parents) a year later u wouldn't care anymore?
@@go0fygoob3ryou should probably understand that people have feelings, and not everything is just cringe.
People may pass on, but legends never die. Now guys, it’s our turn to make sure that future generations watch him
I´m rembering this day... when techno died I woked up , did some morning things and went on youtube, techno uploaded a new video "So long nerds" and I started watching and in like 1 minute I started just crying and I didnt know what to do... After that I went on some minecraft servers and everyone was tributing to him and it was so nice to see how TechnoBlade had this impact on communnity
When I saw the quote, I straight up started crying. He was a huge part of us, and will always be the king
I'm crying all over again - he was a light for millions, with his humor, intelligence, creativity and goodness....he is so sorely missed, Technoblade never dies
It has been really hard for me, and I bet a lot of people can relate to this. I have always thought how much he changed us as people, as a community, and it has felt really weird, especially since I never knew him. The closest I got was being one of his hundreds of thousands of viewers on his stream chat. It has felt really wrong for me having the blow hit so hard, especially when I think that there are so many more people that knew him better. Technoblade Never Dies
You replicated my exact feelings about techno. I found your channel only a few weeks before "so long nerds" and it hit me hard because he was definitely my idol and favorite UA-camr. I just wanted to say that you helped me reconcile back then and now and I see so much of technoblade in you.
RIP Techno, didn’t realise that a year had already passed without you. Death comes for us all, but it took you too early.
Man I miss him too ❤ We feel you!
I honestly can’t believe that it’s been a year since the legend passed away. I’m very glad the Rekrap posted this video because we all need to be reminded of how great and inspiring TechnoBlade was. The Legend Never Dies. 🐷👑😢
No day passes by without thinking of him, what he’s done, what he’s accomplished. R.I.P Technoblade
ngl, you already are also a legend to some people. you are one of the kindest persons on youtube alongside the ryan trahan and i really like the energy in your videos and your persistence in doing what you love to do like your grind in speedrunning.
one day you will hit 10 million and you wont stop growing and getting more fans and i'm looking forward it
Technoblade will never be forgotten, all the good times he gave us, the smiles he put on ours faces when he uploaded, technoblade never dies
Technoblade did die💀 man why do people say 'technoblade never dies'
@@go0fygoob3rcause its one of his iconic sentences and people comment that to pay him respect
@@TriStar1608 cringe
@@go0fygoob3r can u say anything else than cringe, little 5 year old kid with no life?
Ngl, Techno meant so much to me. He was a part of my childhood and it's sad that I can't watch any of his videos without shedding a tear. I remember when I found his content for the first time, I was in a hospital because I broke my arm really badly(surgery and all that stuff). I couldn't sleep so I started watching some YT and he popped up in my recommended with a Blitz Survival Games episode. I literally binged all his videos in one night because it distracted me from the pain and I have been a fan ever since. I just loved him just talking about his life while shitting on people in whatever gamemode. I miss him..
I didn't watch Techno before he passed, but after I heard the news I started to watch him and other MCYTs, and now I know so much more about Minecraft and the MCYT community. It's so sad to think about, but I'm really happy the community is honouring him.
Rest in peace, Technoblade never dies
Thank you so much for an incredible. I’m actually writing my college essay on the same topic, and appreciated knowing that I was not the only one who felt this way despite having little to no direct connection to Techno.
This time last year the entire UA-cam community was in shock now we still remember the legend. Fly High Techno🕊🕊
I was on vacation in Missouri the time tecnoblade died, I was just eating breakfast and my brother came to me and said that tecnoblade was gone. I didn’t believe him at first cause I didn’t know he was going thru cancer but when I got back to our apartment and saw the video, without even watching it I started crying. I don’t even know why, I had only seen a few
Videos at the time but it was just so terrible for me and I pay respects to the people who actually knew him I can’t imagine what they went through. Technoblade never dies!
Hey, I was in Missouri at the same time! I mean, I live here, but still!
@@BlockMasterT cool
thank you rekrap, you really put into words what i've been feeling today it helps to know none of us are alone in this. Technoblade never dies o7
I don't usually feel sadness when I hear about celebrities passing, I didn't feel anything when my own grandfather stopped remembering who I was, or when he passed away. I don't know how and I don't know why, but every time I think about Technoblade, I just break down. Even today, watching this video a year later, I still cried. You are right, rek. Technoblade was and is a legend. It's even in one of his more popular phrases, he never dies.
Man, its strange to think its been a year. It makes me so sad to think that Techno's legend is done growing, but Im happy to know that his legacy will live on. He died a hero to many people
Cringe
@@go0fygoob3rur still the only thing here that is cringe
he didnt give us up
he didnt let us down
he didnt run around and desert us.
he didnt make us cry
he didnt say goodbye
he didnt turn around and hurt you.
he will not be forgotten
❤
- Rick Astley
The whole part about parasocial relationships really hits hart, it's sometimes incredible to see that not only us viewers go through it, but the same CC's we see also can feel like that. It's been a year since he left us, yet the wound is still open
i dont watch techno much when he was still alive but once he died... it just hits hard I enjoyed him if I was hurt this much from a guy I didn't really watch I could dare to even think of how much his dad and friend went through yet he still was not forgotten thanks alex for how much you helped us
Even if a legend dies , it'll always stay in our hearts.
The only person who is in my heart is Jesus Christ and not someone pig with a crown
@@go0fygoob3rthe only thing in ur heart ( if it even exists) is something that doesn't exist instead of the best youtuber ever?
Tf, techno was the most ass UA-camr. His voice made me want to sleep, I prefer the older UA-camrs like dantdm, captiansparklez, etc.
@@go0fygoob3r maybe u see that so but mentally stable and even most not mentally stable people see him as the best/ one of the best youtuber ever
@@go0fygoob3r im in another religion , and by saying that technoblade is in my heart i dindt mean "OMG I WORSHIP THECNOBLADE" 💀
Glad you could at least come out with this video, well done of you
I cried for an hour straight after getting the news from my friends. Only the good die young. Rest In Peace, Technoblade.
I really really do admire his positivity in such a horribly dreadful situation. The fact that even when he knew he was going to die, he still was talking about getting his merch out.
It's hard to believe it's been a year...
Technoblade never dies!!❤ 👑🐷
This guy puts effort in this topic even he isn't linked with the topic. It's nice to see you speaking about a person that was THE legend.❤
TECHNOBLADE NEVER DIES. Because he will be remembered every single year.
The one small light I manage to find in all of this is that he had the drive and passion to do all that he did, so that we all could know him just a little and love him an awful lot in the time that we had him. I still can hardly process that he’s gone, and I know that many others feel that tenfold, but I can’t help but be grateful that the stars aligned in such a way that we all got to witness his shining light before he passed, I think you’re completely right in calling him a legend, and as long as we keep enjoying his stories Technoblade truly will never die.
“One day we will look back and see how far we’ve come.” - Technoblade
You sure went far, R.I.P an amazing Minecraft player and an amazing human being.
Rip you will be missed legend
I felt EXACTLY how you did - the sudden realisation, sadness, tears and the weird feeling of "is it okay to cry for someone I don't really know?".
Thanks for making this video. It really validates the empty feeling of losing a content creator you never met.
I will never forget the community's reaction to it though - you could really see the legacy he left behind. That was the final push I needed to start my channel.
Technoblade never dies!
Us moment
I have massive respect for rekrap for not trying to capitalize off his death, or even appear to do that. This video really seems heart felt
I loved all of Techno's videos. I've watched all of them so, so many times, I've even watched most of his stream vods multiple times. In my friend group I was always 'the Technoblade guy'. Everyone knew I loved Technoblade.
_That video_ was uploaded in the middle of the night in my time zone. I woke up in the morning, prepared for school like I would any other day, and just as I was about to leave, I looked at my phone, to see a notification from UA-cam that Techno had uploaded a video. I just read the title of the video and immediately knew what was up. I didn't have time to watch the video though, because I would have been late, and frankly, I simply didn't want it to be true. I went to school, thinking of it throughout the entire day, trying to distract myself, trying to ignore it somehow. When I got home that day I went to my computer to see a discord DM from one of my close friends, asking if I was doing alright, because she knew how much Techno meant to me. I said I was OK, and then finally, reluctantly watched the video.
nothing can replace techno and his legacy, but people like you parker are the ones that can honour what he has contributed to the community of minecraft and beyond, and that starts with your speedrunning commentary. In it's own way it has the same humour and appeal as technoblade's skywars videos and always brings a smile to my face at his memory
This video gains me mad respect for you. Not only have I already been a fan of your videos, content, positivity, after seeing this video made me feel even better about you
SAD-ist’s “technoblade” video made me cry.
He was my favorite at the time and to see such a great man fall was heart breaking…
It’s good that you made this video,
being late is better than not showing up at all!
Although Techno died he will NEVER EVER die in our hearts! Rest in peace Techno. Also I know its been a year but this video legit made me cry.
I can't believe it's been a year... I still remember how crushed I felt when I heard the news
We'll never forget him, Techno never dies ❤
As a wise man once sed “A person is never truly dead until he is forgotten “ so let’s always remember Technoblade for who he is and the impact he had on people’s lives ❤
man i really miss techno, he was def one of the best mcyt's out there.. rip king 👑
“ Not making jokes at peoples expense” orphans left the game
Rest in peace techno🕊️
I wasn't like the biggest fan of technoblade but I still cryed after knowing the news and I didn't knew why.
I truly miss Technoblade. It’s a shame his life ended so early. He was truly a legend. Technoblade never dies 👑👑🐷
I really relate to the feeling of "I didn't know this person personally, why did this effect me so much?". I had lost loved ones before technoblade's passing and I felt wrong for how much the pain was similar though less to the pain from passing of people I had known personally. I woke up seeing dms of my friends talking about it (I live in the UK so when the news struck I was fast asleep) and I had to kind of process all of it while my american friends were asleep.
But I think its a good thing to remember that even though we didn't know him personally we still knew a part of him. Like you said, he of course wouldn't be the same on and off camera but it was the same vein of talking to grandparents vs close friends type of thing, it was still a part of him. I don't know if I'm just kinda rambling about points, I feel like I'm repeating what you said in the video at this point my bad.
It's a deep pain that we all feel and for anyone reading this who might still really be hurting from techno's passing or a passing of someone they know: It does get better, I promise. I don't believe the grief will ever fully go away and there will still be sad days or moments, but to grieve is to have loved.
When ever I watch a technoblade tribute, I get a little emotional, but then I somewhat get stronger inside, and reflecting on technoblade's death has made me realise time and time again to stop giving in to the pains I suffer now. And this video is one of the best....
There's been a lot of tributes to techno these past few days, and I have watched a few. I noticed how most of them were similar, or as similar as people can be. rek's approach to his death somehow moved me. All the other tributes I've watched never did that. His approach was so different that when I started the video I thought I didn't LIKE his tribute, or that it wasn't enough to make up for what happened. Now I realize that this video, however simplistic or short it is, is a masterpiece in itself. It didn't make me cry, it didn't make me sad, I only.... left me at peace with what has happened. Thank you rek.
i never hesitated. he went straight to heaven.
technoblade never dies!
We all understand how you feel. Rest in Power, Alex
I was never even in a voice chat, or server with Techno, but even so I feel the grief from everyone around him after his passing. I loved his videos, and watching his dad's video about his death brought me to tears, and I was on vacation just thinking about what he meant to me. The sadness, and stories everyone shared, or could share could fill a warehouse with happiness and laughter but also sadness, self-reflection and thoughts to what am I worth to other people. Seeing your reaction helps me to gauge one thing. TechnoBlade or by his real name- Alex will be a hero, and role model to all who even experienced his videos, and to his loved ones he will forever mean more than most of us can imagine.
TechnoBlade Never Dies
i got the same thing, i knew him but i wasn t his #1 fan, but when i woke up, saw the video, watched it i went for a bike ride and in the middle of the road i stopped and started crying
First video I ever watched of Technoblade was a Mega Walls video. I watched him since I was about 11, and now I'm in college. I remember me and my friend got killed by him in a BSG game once, and it was great. It's weird to see someone that you enjoyed watchin and who inspired you pass away. You never met them, you were never friends, and they never even knew you existed, yet they still managed to play an important role in your life
I loved techblade and I cried when I saw him go but end the end he impacted us in a good way. He is a legend and will always be one. Techo never died. R.I.P Alex. Also gtg Parker for quarter mil subs!! GG
This actually made me tear up. Thank you for this video
I can’t believe it’s been a year. Rest in peace techno. We all know he’s living the legend life up in heaven
Because legends never die.
Well, I just finished crying at Tommy’s tribute, guess I’m going in for round two.
But in all seriousness, thank you for making this. I think we were all impacted in some way by Techno’s passing, so thank you for sharing yours. We will never forget Technoblade. He will never die. o7
I remember when my mom told me he died. I was on a road trip in the US (I’m from Canada) so I had my cell data turned off. My mom told me the news and I felt pressured not to cry because my brother disses me for liking mcyt. When she told me, a big part of my life died along with him and I felt so alone with nobody that would understand me. RIP king, Technoblade never dies. ❤❤❤
I watched a video before this one and... its still hard to believe he's gone. Techno.. NEVER DIES!! we love you R.I.P.
You're a great person, Rek. Thank you for making this. Rest in peace, King, you'll never die.
Rek, thank you for this vid. And not only for this one. It is always good to talk about life, problems, news, happy moments.
Nobody doesnt know when he will die.
It's better to say (something) than to miss a chance to do it.
I watched Techno's vids for a good, but then in one of his vids I noticed words about cancer in his arm. It really stroke my head(my mom died to it when i was 12).
The more time there was between videos, the more I worried. But then. One evening I got notification from his channel. I was relieved.
But it wasnt his usuall vid...
the more time there was between videos, the more I worried.
In the past year I have watched it ~8 times. It still makes me cry.
Technoblade never dies
one of the reasons I first started wacthing you was beacause I loved your enthusiasm, your humer, you make me exited everytime you post a new video. thank you rek
I remember being in Scotland on vacation at the time, I cam back from hiking up this gorgeous mountain, and got on my phone, when to UA-cam, and saw "so long nerds" and I just knew. I knew that that was the end. I cried for a day straight, because Techno was more than a content creator, he was more than an inspiration to millions of kids such as myself, he was a new era of entertainment, he was Technoblade, and there is no one that I can use as a comparison that would be even close to on the same level. So with that being said, TECHNOBLADE NEVER DIES BABY!
