TECHNOBLADE NEVER DIES!

—TECHNOBLADE'S FAMOUS CATCHPHRASE, [7]


Alexander "Alex", better known online as Technoblade and most commonly known as Techno, was a Minecraft YouTuber and friend of the Dream Team. There was a running rivalry joke between him and Dream, as they both often competed against each other in competitions. Techno logged on to the Dream SMP for the first time on September 22, 2020. On June 30, 2022, his family released a video announcing that he had passed away from cancer.[8]

History[]

Minecraft Youtubers VS Player Controlled Ender Dragon...[]

Techno was one of the eight players to try to defeat the Ender dragon controlled by GeorgeNotFound. Technoblade didn't win, but was one of the three players to destroy all the end crystals.

$100,000 Dream vs Technoblade Duel![]

Techno posted on his Twitter account that after his Potato War with im_a_squid_kid, he would start a “training arc” to beat Dream in their next matchup, the $100,000 Dream vs Technoblade Duel, hosted by MrBeast.[9] Techno won the match, beating Dream 6-4, although they agreed to split the money. Technoblade uploaded his perspective Dream VS Technoblade: $100,000 Duel ANALYSIS.

Illness and Death[]

On August 27, 2021, Technoblade uploaded a video to YouTube, titled, "where I've been." In the video, he explained that he wasn't uploading content to his channel at much due to a struggle with cancer.[10] On December 23, 2021, Techno posted another video titled "I Almost Became An Amputee" where he gave an update on the state of his cancer.[11] Techno's dad later elaborated on the decision to not amputate after learning about the amount of time Techno had left. Techno's dad explained that the surgeon changed his mind regarding the amputation and said that Techno would have a much better, more normal quality of life "during the six to twelve months you have left" if he kept his arm.[12]

After a continued uphill battle against the disease, Techno passed away from his cancer at some point in June 2022. After Techno's passing, Techno's dad reached out to Dream using Techno's account after his passing. Thus, Dream had to share the unfortunate news to members of the Dream SMP and others close to Techno online.[13] On June 30, Techno's father posted a video titled "so long nerds" on Techno's YouTube channel announcing that Techno had passed away. This included a message he read out loud that Techno had written himself.[8] Following the weeks after his passing, several internet personalities made tributes to him. YouTube itself also made a video soon afterwards.
