That’s how he won battles, he used the resources that he had to give himself the biggest advantage he could get. That’s what I loved about him ❤❤

    in the ADHD community we call this "hyperfixation" techno has ADHD so his dedication is also because farming potatoes gave his brain the dopamine it naturally lacks, plus the activity entertained him. I see that as a win win in my book.

  • @rebeccating1487

    The potato trilogy is one of the best ways to introduce Technoblade to a person. It showcases his dedication (or insanity), his dark humour (and sarcasm), his brain power, (overflowing), his great quotes (mostly Sun Tzu) and so so many other things.

    Edit: I'm going to be 100% transparent, for some reason when I first watched the trilogy of the potato war and Techno said his final words, I teared up. Legitimately, I teared up, I had tears in my eyes and I was questioning why while the music was still going on the video. Techno is a strange individual that makes me feel things sometimes.

    11:10 there are a few youtubers I'm glad are youtubers because if they were anything else We'd be doomed
    Techno is one of them
