Minecraft YouTuber Technoblade Passes Away from Cancer

Minecraft YouTuber Technoblade has passed away at age 23 after a battle with cancer. The Minecraft community is quite massive, which shouldn't come as a surprise given the game has sold over 238 million copies and is available on a wide array of platforms. The community is what has kept the game alive and so successful for so long, with key figures on YouTube helping champion the game in a major way.

Sadly, Technoblade's father uploaded one last video to the YouTuber's channel to announce that the beloved content creator has passed away at age 23. Technoblade, whose real name was Alex, passed away from cancer and spent his final hours writing a letter to his fans so that it could be read by his father. Roughly eight hours after finishing the letter, Technoblade passed away.

"This past year had a lot of rough spots for our son as he battled stage four cancer," wrote Technoblade's family."But he didn't complain, and kept using his famous strategic mind to try to beat what he knew were almost impossible odds. My son's bravery on this path was a shining lesson to all of us who were privileged to walk it with him. Thank you for sharing his journey through it all, as he did the work he loved for his beloved fans.

0commentsMany fans in the YouTube comments expressed their sadness for the loss of Technoblade, but also remembered all of the fond memories he gave them. The same was said on Twitter as a number of major content creators, Minecraft server owners, and community members paid tribute to the YouTuber.

Article refers to him as technomancer at one point. Can not tell if typo or alternate name. They will be missed.

RIP Technothepig

rest in peace to a real one :(,
