In my last Minecraft episode, I peeled back the mysterious layers of the Minecraft Illagers. In that, I talked about how the Illagers were looking to build their own Minecraft worlds - from portals to Steve himself. There was something else that I wasn't able to cover in that episode, and that is how Minecraft Illagers relate to the history of what is known as cargo cults.

That's not even a theory, that's straight facts

they are able to craft bells, which players themselves are unnable to
Calder Branham they reject us as wannabes
What if theyre not trying to bring back the builders, but trying to BECOME the builders. Maybe they think that killing the player will give them necessary parts or something?

Lol very true
But they wantet the ancient builders back not steve and mabye steve its a failed experiment and they try to destroy it
@winsley ocampo ya but how did he got a time mashine?
Maybe they want to lure them back so they can get revenge (for leaving them maybe idk) so that's why they attack.
@@yaniscinca3580 Now that's a plausible theory

They means well... they’re confused, but got a right spirit.
@@Drawingodds Should we give it back to them? Just so they are happy?
Matpat: My theory is that they are trying to bring the builders back
The player as a builder: *comes
The Illagers: peace was never an option
THATS WHAT I THOUGHT 🤣😂
They want The Ancient Builders to come back not Steve which the ancient builders and ancestors of Steve
Your right. His theory does not make sense
I think it’s simply that they didn’t see Steve come out of the portal, therefore in their minds, he must be an evil copy.
@@maxizimmer3361 Steve is different and he didn't come out the portal
BrUH That story about the Cargo Cults was genuinely one of the most fascinating things I've ever heard. I need to do some reading about that.
Mattpat: Brings up Herobrine
Minecraft veterans: Herobrine... I haven't heard that name in years.
I really havent
Wow last time i herd that name i was 10 year old
That name brings back memories
-Obi-Wan- Herobrine. Now that's a name I haven't heard in a long time.
Tch. Probably for the best that players today will never have to deal with the terror and chaos of Herobrine's wrath...

Illagers: We want to recreate the builders.
Steve, a builder: Hey-
Illagers: Violence is the question, and the answer is yes.
Plot Twist: Steve (or the player) is actually an escaped clone creature from the Illagers.
that actually makes sense...
They lost their creation and try to do anything to get it back, but they can't... so they repeat the same process again, but this time something goes terribly wrong and the Herobrine is born. this creature slaughters their own creators and anything that gets in their way, it's steve's job, OUR JOB to stop it before it destroys the entire world!
So that will explain why he wants to get to the end because he knows his people reside their
Can we please go back to them? Poor islanders😢
I actually came up with this theory a while ago.
Have you ever considered Mojang could just say “you’re right” and you’ve just written the minecraft lore for them
Mojang: "I'm gonna do, what's called a pro gamer move."
Dan Al there was no need for the comma
Dan Al no comma needed Please learn English
That's interesting. And then think about how Minecraft works. The majority of the game is decided by you. You get to tell your own stories, you get to make your own buildings, you get to make the decisions on how you interact with everything in Minecraft.
legofordman d i never intended to deny that fact. That is the glory of minecraft after all, it is your world. But it’s always nice to have some underlying lore behind everything and some subtle lore behind the creatures we see would be nice. Perhaps my use of the word “story” over “lore” or “backstories” wasn’t the best option
I feel like the green eyes are a little nod to emeralds, that means that the vindicator has a connection to... *lapis lazuli* ?
Ikr
Or Steve
No way I never thought of that OUT OF ALL THE YEARS IVE PLAYED MINECRAFT GO BACK TO FORTNITE
That would actually make a lot of sense, with the lapis connections pointed out last episode.
Makes sense
Wait I may be crazy for this but what if that glass cube filled with lava was them trying to recreate the living magma cubes in the nether???
I don't think you're crazy, I think you might be on to something.
Well proff are the witches since we need to go to the nether to make potions

That's it?
Sound like Pewdiepie’s series
I just noticed something about the wool statues in the mansions. The animal statues are Cats and Chickens. I belive cats are pretty obvious, witches have pet cats in minecraft and work with the Illagers, but something caught me with the chickens. In the mobestiary they say that Chickens might be spys for dark forces, since they can be ridden by baby versions of zombies. In fact, they're one of the only mobs in the game that can be ridden by a monster such as ravagers, spiders, and skeleton horses. It seems oddly specific for those mobs to be in there as a giant statue rather than any other mob, seems like Chickens in minecraft also have some dark connection lol
Lore of CHICKENS
we need this
I had a nightmare relating CHICKENS last night lmfao
Image you already have a fear or dislike for chickens and you hear this😐
this theory is supported when you watch Slimecicle's impossible difficulty video. They were the most dangerous enemy in the mod they created, so much so that they had to use command blocks to get rid of them. So, I do think you're on to something.
Let's go chicken theory
Maybe they saw the builders go into the portal. I have a feeling that the builders had some kind of connection to the villagers, which is why they're so friendly to us as the player. What if the illagers saw them go into the end portal, and when the builders didn't return they tried to make it again to bring them back.
You know, I'm pretty sure Mojang themselves don't have a completely fleshed out set of lore. If I recall correctly in one of their videos (not sure if it was Minecraft LIVE or something on their UA-cam channel) they mentioned that they provide just enough lore for the fans to come up with their own ideas, because it inspires creative thinking and new ideas.
Speaking of the vindicator's having different colored eyes, they can spawn in peaceful mode and they won't attack villagers if it's peaceful mode
I think its because they injected lapis into their own skulls like how he said on the last theory of the illagers
ShrekFanboy 1 well maybe not so literally. I believe it has something to do with their affiliation with lapis, but they don’t actually have lapis in their skulls

@@dejus_e arnt two characters actually gay?
there is a theory I heard that the wool statues in the rooms allow the illagers to spy through the actual mobs, the cat statue would allow them to see through the eyes of actual cats and that is how raids start when the player right away gets to a village after getting the bad omen effect
So does this mean that the whole "messing with life and death" thing is them trying to mimic re-spawning? Just throwing out something random.
What if they created us the player.
That at actually sounds kind of true
Nice insight
This could be true. If you think about it the player just wakes up in a new world. Could the player be the original builder/builders but maybe something went wrong and the player loses there memory. But because crafting was second nature to them they learn to build things the rest of the world still doesn't fully understand.

I'm never seen any of his other minecraft theories and listening to these recaps is bewildering, he just keeps taking so many wild turns.
Villagers: *Build Beds*
Illagers: We don't do that here.
Well that's a really strong proof against his theory
But well cover that on another episode!
@@klexfire4384 How so? Villagers might be once that understood what visitors did, or learned to copy them. Illagers are the ones that didn't get it and are just trying to replicate stuff.
@@Mandemon1990 or beds were introduced after the illagers were exiled. Then they evolved differently so the villagers learned how to make beds and the illagers just didn't.
Maybe they evokers and illagers got kicked out for doing those rituals?

Viewer: "But... we don't want them shorter 😐"
So true Lol
The truth is a lot of ppl claim he always stretches his videos out
GIVE US MORE AT LEAST 1H.
@@deividrodrigues9424 no
@@viktoranderas9541 YES
So basically it is possible that they saw the ancient race of builders and some of them resembled the clothing of steve and since they already used those outfit colors to make maps and beds, they decided to try use the blue wool to try and summon those builders and essentially create them to understand the stuff but achieved no success repeatedly.
Maybe they try to remember what it was like when they used to build and bring life to dead people. Them, unlike Villagers, want to bring the ancient civilization back and they don’t know how, so they use cargo cult to bring them back, so the ones that started to build would show them how to do that, how to creat more advance builds, and bring persons back to life.
I feel like this way it fits with your theory about how villagers and this ancient civilization used to be one. But idk your the expert with theory’s after all.
Matpat : "you don't put something like that arbitrarily."
Mojang : "we just put that arbitrarily."
Jay's Random Videos lol plot twist
I just had a few thoughts:
- Why does the End Portal require Eyes of Ender to activate if the Ancient Builders went into it before Endermen existed? How did they first activate it, and who made the mechanism that required the Eyes of Ender?
- Furthermore along this line of thinking, did the Ancient Builders cut the eyes out of people to use to conjure the portal?
- Also, why are the Eyes of Ender so large when placed into the End Portal slots? Is it just an arbitrary thing insofar as graphic design, or is there some other force at work in there?
Maybe Eyes of Ender are a remnant of some sort of “life force” the builders had, so the initial opening required sacrifices? But that would mean whoever started using eyes of ender must have known what had happened to the builders
The ender dragon's eye
Maybe they aren't literal eyes but simply called eyes because of their shape. They could be some form of created object possibly even a power source for the portal.
I think that you need eyes of ender to replicate some sort of power that only ancient builders have. Also every item in Minecraft increases in size when placed down
I think the end is a dimension that exists outside of time (hence why you can't sleep there) and that the endermen can simply exit the end into certain points in time , just a thought
The Herobrine part brought memories back to life and gave me shivers down my spine

How does this fit in with the villagers and Illagers being related when villagers can create beds?
illagers eyes are probably blue due to their connection to lapis, this might also be the reason why their skín is grey instead of the color of a regular villager
Maybe, but what about evokers? They have grey skin but green eyes. You're probably on to something though.

You can totally get lost in the true stories MatPat tells about lore. Have you seen the first ever FNAF game theory? It’s fascinating.
Same with me
yea
Theory: The Illagers , and specifically Evokers, weren't trying to imitate or recreate Steve specifically when they accidentally made zombies.
They were trying to recreate the ancient builders. *And they succeeded.* Which is where Steve comes from.
Still not quite perfectly. He's not friendly to them, and the creation process winds up causing him to come into existence at some random point in the world. But the Evokers made a Builder.
If that's the case we'd have to explain alex
In bedrock edition strongholds have a higher chance of spawning under a village, so I think that one of the “unspeakable acts” was building the end portal and maybe, using the dragon??
Or: The Illagers can't craft beds / maps. They left all the other Villagers who were professional carpenters / cartographers, so they don't know how to make these items.
That would leave the end portal room and the giant animals unexplained
@@pandemonium2536 True. I also have no idea how they got hold of so much dyed wool.
@@LydieBerry I mean, if they figured out how to dye sheep, it would make sense. And villagers already are able to use wool and carpet, so not too too much of a stretch imo - but then raises the question of why villagers are seemingly able to craft some things, and not others. Did the builders teach them?
Also how would they have dyed wool, axes, and other things if they don’t know how to craft?
They have to know how to craft, with the axes and wooden planks, and they get the wool from the evoker, who has demonstrated the ability to change the wool’s color. This theory was very far fetched for me, and i just saw the structures as the illagers experimenting with their magic evoker wool, as odd as it sounds
Illagers: **trying to recreate Steve**
Also Illagers: **attacking Steve on sight**
Unless they were trying to create herobrine and steve was a failure so they tried to destroy him.
I doubt, because Herobrine isn't the original idea made by Mojang.
Illagers: *this is not O K I E D O K I E*
Maybe theyre trying to get dna?
Maybe
Perhaps, the illagers built the giant woolen animals to try and create giant monsters to help them fight or protect their mansions? It would make sense, with the idea they tried to make steve, and the illager beasts
This also explains why the evokers have totems of undying. If the ancient builders really did come in contact with the villages, they would have given some of their items to them just as a normal player would likely build a base in a village. Since the ancient builders were likely experimenting with life and death, some of their magic would have been adapted by the evokers through the totems. This also explains why they don't use the totems to stop themselves from dying, they don't fully understand how those magic items work.
Mojang is just gonna give us a link to this playlist when they finally want to give us lore and say “yeah what he said”
I'm just imagining Mat making theories about his own theories after the lore is canon
Actually, this seems more of a way to try to destroy the end portals. Notice the TNT? This makes it appear to be a way to destroy them and the strongholds inside too. If they just saw them, why would they get rid of the lighting? Everyone knows that lights prevent mob spawning, so the builders clearly had light before they got trapped in the end. Man, I hope someone sees this.
The TNT might be gifts from the people and put it there as an offering, the chest tells me this
I ACKNOWLEDGE YOUR COMMENT CHOSEN ONE
P.S nice catch I also noticed that keep up the good work
And if they cant make beds how can they make tnt?
yeah, all this theory does is poke more holes in the theories MatPat already did. This is turning out to make about as much sense as his claim over on Film Theory that the Cars in 'Cars" are giant, sentient insects made out of metal.
Teodor Urbaniak
I’m not very sure either, and while you could be right, I think it could also be a replica of the silverfish spawners near the Portal. It’s a far stretch but maybe the TNT is supposed to symbolize how destructive/harmful they were? Or reminding them to destroy these spawners? I don’t really know though.
The ENTIRE Halo Covenant is a cargo cult
How?
My god that is longer than I thought it'd be
Imagine if you could activate the wool recreations of the end portal and get teleported to a MSPaint-like version of the End
Matpat: This is a diet theory
Me: So basically a normal theory with a cool name
just a theory he doesn't have enough evidence to feel strongly enough abt to call it a regular theory lmao
“That just sounds like a normal theory with extra steps”
glad its without Aspartam.
Not past the 10 minute mark the vid is 11 minutes
YES
My theory:
The illagers aren’t just trying to create life, aren’t just trying to create steve or Herobrine, but what they actually want to do is created a being like us, specifically, a being who can respawn.
I agree! Thet are obsessed with life, and that we can cheat death no matter what, coming back to the world time after time. They want that for themselves!
Your smart
Yep that sounds pretty true to me what if u just figured it out :)!!!!!!
but then here's a question why are they hostile towards the player? why would they attack the thing they've been trying to make for a long time?
@@FBD_WalterClements71 Possibly jealousy. Or that they view players as failed projects?
"vindicator eyes are blue"
My brother: ooh you're a vindicator
I think for them going to a stronghold isn't what happened maybe they heard of it from a legend and then tried to recreate it and maybe make a way for the ancient builders a way back

Matt: Trying to go under the 10 minute mark (and failing)

For some reason, this makes me want to go into creative mode and find their mansion, and give them real beds, real maps, a real end portal. Just to make their dreams come true haha
Aww how sweet of you
Hey I've done it before lol, it looks better anyways
wow ur so kind but yeah they attak us in survival
U ok?
Nah just burn them
They're too far gone
I think that the illagers saw the builder before the ancient builder went through the portal.They were amazed by the builders but when they need to retreat to the end the illagers follow them trying to convince them to stay and teach them how they do what they do but the builders didn’t want to stay longer.They hopped through the portals with the illagers standing behind them.So they went home trying to recreate the portals, the beds,the animals, and the builders themselves with their totems of undying
I love how just straight happy Minecraft villagers sound

@@Devin-hg8cq XD
I thought that perhaps the illagers grew up with stories of the end portal and people who left with it, maybe seeking knowledge and even family or ancestors they based builds off of those stories. They might have never even seen an end portal that way only made assumptions of what they read in stories. And perhaps when they worked to find out more about those who left for the end, even pushing themselves to the point of doing something with lapis. Maybe that's when the other villagers abandoned them. The Illagers angered by the villagers continue with their experiments falling deeper into darkness. Where in that darkness like the theorists said they kidnapped and changed the villagers into those hulking beasts. I wonder if the illagers are just children who grew up on stories of those theorized ancient builders, and out of curiosity mimicked those builders with their fake maps, beds, and portals. Of course all of this is based off of what the Game Theorists have made.
what if steve and alex were successful illager experiments
it would explain why they’re the only builders in the land
Matpat: Herobrin-
Minecraft Veterans: *_WHAT DID YOU SAY_*
It would be cool that the devs would make him an official part of the lore, perhaps the fake end portal can transform into something completely different and is a portal that leds to herobrine’s mansion or something where there is a boss arena where you fight him as the final boss.
Judgment Herobrine is official
Emily Monahan oh.. my.. god.. I’ve remembered a dark time trying to spawn him in 2012😳😳😳
My minecraft ptsd kicked in when I saw herobrine.
I remember a time where my brother joined with a Herobrine skin and gamertag back in Minecraft v1.0 it was a good try
What if they're trying to create an immortal being that has access to the legendary Creative Mode...
I like the way you think
They're trying to create a clone of Felipe Neto! (only Brazilians would understand this joke, lol)
lol
Not to mention the lost power of the command block, an object that can alter reality at the press of a button...

I would love that every so often minecraft would add a new feature to the illagers or adding a new illager spell as a result of their experiments
Mini theory: Assuming you’re right (I think the theory’s pretty good) If the illagers are a cargo cult in the situation of Minecraft they don’t understand the point of building with certain blocks and crafting. So how did they construct their massive wooden mansions? They must’ve-learned how to smelt sand, craft glass panes, mine, and craft logs into planks for many types of wood.
Matt in the first theory: THEY ARE EVIL
Matt now: Poor illagers want their messiab back
I mean. He only implied that they were evil. He didn't say they were evil, we just assumed that.

Well there are also the features of evoker like turning blue sheep into red sheep
This one seems so true but if some one could escape the end then it would contradict enderman being the ancient builder
If they were truly trying to bring back the “ancient builders” why would they be agressive towards somebody who, to them, would mimic the people they were trying to bring back?
Angry at why you left or. They want to dissect you and understand you better
ahaha
matpat behold, Px Gluz has made a hole in your theory
Maybe they think that the player is the key to their plans. We are the closest thing to the ancient builders that exists in their world after all aren't we?
We can build,we can craft and most importantly,we *come back after we die*
So if you want to bring dead people back to live,go for the people that can *survive death*
Imagine he is just connecting dots that aren't there, and Mojang is like "OK. we'll take it"
Almost like: I’ll take your entire stock!
Hold on let me add on to that, mojang is like. "Woah, this guy just made us a lore for us...let's just go with it,"
Honestly it has happened a lot of times in media. A writer vaguely hints at an idea they had in their head, however the fans manage to make a theory out of hints in the medium which ends up being more interesting or more concrete than what the writer had planned, so much so the writer went 'Yep, that's now canon' or they adapt on it more. Honestly its kinda a nice thing, the fans get validation and closure, the writers get propted up for a better theory than intended, and in the end the questions get answered

Hi, pls hear me. What if they were they "enemies" that made the race of the first builders flee and try to run away? I mean, IT IS JUST A THEORY but it could be true. The vindicators and the other kind of illagers in mansions ( i dont remember the name) appera to be not "not that much civilizated". So, what if the ancient race pf builders was afraid of them? I mean, evil villagers creating mobsters and playing with life are surely not the best friends. The builders built the strongholds and the portals to get away, and their "enemies" saw the portal. I always say " enemies" and not just enemies because the builders wouldnt probably know if their enemies were enemies or allies that didn't know how to act near them. So, the builders were afraid and made the portal, their fake enemies followed them and saw the portal and since they had access to such magic as life creation understood that the portal was a one way gate. So, with my theory we solve thw "who were the builders' enemies" and how they have seen a portal. Now as a result they are trying to recreate a portal to bring the people they admired so much back. I think that this theory is prwtty much solid but i dont have the time to find evidences. If you actually read this I wont you to know that I admire you and I would like you to answer to this comment, even something like jrjdndjdnsjenskidhn (random keys). I hope that this comment will be helpful
Great Idea!

I would honestly prefer if these “small theories” stayed at around this length. It’s very interesting to watch, no matter how long the. Video is. I wouldn’t mind watching more, if it means getting more information on theories.
I SECOND THIS
I agree as well. Plus if he uploads shorter videos it would mess with UA-cam’s stupid algorithm.

U shoved a whole minute out of the normal theories
I forgot this was a Minecraft vid halfway thru
"have you ever heard the tragedy of the evokers?"
"...no"
"I thought not. it's not a story the villagers would tell you. evokers were dark magicians of the iliagers so powerful and so wise, that they could influence the blocks to create, life..."

Is it possible to learn this power

Ironic. He could create totems of undying which save others from death, but not himself.
Something was bugging me while mat was talking about the cargo cults, he states that the Illagers were trying to recreate portals,maps and beds by using wool because they didn’t understand the concepts (like the cargo cults) but hear me out if illagers were past villagers wouldn’t they know how to build beds? Because in minecraft the villagers have real beds in their houses, this means they must have known how to build them before they were exiled. but thats just a theory A MINI THEORY (sorry for the bad spelling)
Well new beds aren't made in villages. By that I mean new houses aren't made. The Shepard knows how to make beds after leveling him up quite a bit but I think that the villagers might have forgotten how to make beds from the old race and now they are learning from interaction with us. No shepherd can trade beds without some interaction with us(all they want is different colored wool at the start). With this lack of information, illagers would also not know how to make beds. There may also be a large time gap between us and the old race so the villagers alive may be generations old so new villagers may not have learned about beds, just like new illagers.
Yeah and villagers have crafting tables
The builders most likely were the ones who created villages for villagers, perhaps before that they were tribesmen, until the ancient race of builders came and bestowed them this knowledge, and gave them more and more stuff like beds, carrots etc. until they basically took them for granted. And when they left. They couldn't do anything, and hence the new generations were slowly losing the knowledge until it vansihed
@@jayashreesahoo318 y'all have great theories tho
The villages that were present when Woodland mansions were added didn't have beds in them
🤓Its always interesting to see irl parallels to games and this story is honestly tragic, I wonder, do they still do these rituals and why?🤨
I just realized something: When you kill an evoker, they don't pop the totem, but when you kill it it drops it, so maybe the reason the illagers do raids is for souls that in turn are used for totems that would give them immortality.
like this so matpat can see
I love how not too long after this theory related to the concept of “old builders” mojang added “ruined portals”. I think their trying to play along.
I think you're right they're playing along and i think that at some point they're just going to say that "you know what? This matpat guy is a genius should we hire him to help us with the games lore?" And then some other guy is like "what? Hire him? Why? He's already doing it for us" 😂
MatPat: makes a theory
Mojang Team: Write that down! Write that down!
Pretty sure the broken portals were just so you couldn’t get stuck in the nether in hardcore or if you set your spawn point in the nether and the portal breaks

this is sounding more minecraft story mode than i like
I have a theory that is unsolved still: How did we get here? Why am I in the overworld as and adult, no memory of what happened, and nothing on me? What if when they were creating Steve clones they made us??
I think I've got it. Since we were the first successful ones, we were an unnssuccsful zombie. They were so used to zombies that soon they only tried to make zombies that they were freaking out so they tossed us out to sea. The only question is, how did the experiment go wrong?
Oh shi- he's right

How to make a theory like 30 seconds long :
Step 1 : Hire a dude that hosts those auctions.
Step 2 : Give them the script.
Step 3 : Watch in amazement how they talk really fast.
