XD If u think him stalking his twitter is bad, his friend (Tommyinnit) has said that in a call, techno (while share screening farming potatoes) commented out of nowhere that he narrowed squid’s college down to 1 out of 4
moonrin RIGHT!! this man is terrifying when hes extremely determined and focused. (in tommy’s words; “if he ever decided to stop bullying children and bully politicians instead he’d take over the world)
I was going to say that. Lol There is no level this man won't stoop to if he is focused on something. Seeing all the essays and things he wrote when he was 15 on Hypixel about how to balance kits in Blitz with extreme detail, thus eventually getting noticed by Hypixel and asked to join the Elite team on Blitz. This potato war document is not surprising at all, and I have no doubt he actually did time the potato growth on squid's farm. He really does love math.
@@introvertedppl I found the violin thing awesome too, as I used to play but never quite got vibrato down lol but 1st (in 2nd violin) in what I assume was a huge group of kids. Crazy
Before Minecraft Monday made him much more popular, Technoblade was probably best known for his Bedwars series, I really recommend watching them. Especially the ones about setting the winstreak record where Techno basically broke all records with a 1400 winstreak if I recall correctly.
Technoblade is incredibly talented. He dropped out of college, but his skills in math are incredible. I fully believe tat he timed the potato minions on a stopwatch. TommyInnit, one of his friends, watched the Potato War video too and said that Techno narrowed squid kid down to 1 of 4 colleges, and also that if he ever decided to go after politicians instead of bullying people on Minecraft, he’d be a terrifying force to deal with.
@@siri5784 yeah he talked about it in this “i dropped out of college lol” video. He says his brain is motivated by deadlines and by not scoring anything lower than an a- (wc he did)
technoblade is insane he took over the entire world in the smp series and had a rule made to specifically counter him so that it didnt happen again, to stop a college student from finding out that he was farming potatoes
The enchanted stuff is items that are compacted I think, like when you craft diamonds into diamond blocks, except you can compact items even further in Skyblock, though I’m not sure how much.
For most items, you need 2.5 stacks of an item to craft its enchanted variant. Some items like potatoes can be compacted even further, but you need 2.5 stacks of the enchanted version of it.
@@TdotBB yea like berke filiz said you can make say 2.5 stacks of diamonds in 1 enchanted diamond and 2.5 stacks of enchanted diamonds into an enchanted diamond block.
@@TdotBB 1 enchanted item is crafted from 160 of the base material. So 1 enchanted string would be made from 160 normal string. It's pretty crazy that he had all those chests full of enchanted string stacks.
Man...i can't answer the hypixel questions, i just know the basic game mods that are there from watching yt. I wouldn't be suprised if he actually crawled and stop watch, the potato minions. Recently he was measuring time for horses and breeding lots of them on Dream smp just to have a fast horse with good stats (even if it was for few procents) He's a master of horses now cause of that , he talked lots about it on stream lol "He was playing chess while i was farming potatoes!" ~Techno In the next part there will be few great quotes! hope you catch them, well anyway i will write them down later.
the enchanted string is actually a version of string that only drops from tarantula bosses(up to 64 from the strongest version there is) most other enchanted items are made with 160 of the regular item. some items even have an enchanted item made out of a frickton of other enchanted items. example: 160 diamonds = 1 enchanted diamond 160 enchanted diamonds aka 25,600 diamonds = 1 enchanted diamond block. if you go back and look at all the materials youll notice theres absurdly high amounts of resource costs for any one tiny thing.
oh also theres a lot of ways to improve the amount of items obtained from doing tasks manually. for farming the main thing is that you level up farming (which can take FOREVER after a while) every level makes you have +4% chance to get double items, and then once its 100% it then lets you get +4% chance at triple items(triple is limit). also he got a hoe that gives 25% chance at an extra of that crop and an enchant that is much better at 67.5%. i think techno basically just always gets triple vanilla potato amounts or more
You've just answered my main questions from this video! Thank you Stone, I like how they use a range of combined items and boss items to upgrade stuff. It puts into perspective how much time, currency and effort goes into each item!
This is underrated. Genuinely. I'd love to see your reaction the the third part because I feel like it's the best. Also, I recommend watching "the hypixel skyblock experience" because it explains the mechanics for this video.
Thank you for the complement! I will be posting the third part early next week. and I'll also watch the hypixel skyblock experience after it even though it would be smarter to watch it first aha
I love the potato war. To get a good sense of Technoblade I would suggest watching some of his bedwars or Minecraft Monday content, this is really awesome but it doesn’t really show his full depth of skill. I have also seen somebody suggest Absolutely ruining a $36,000 Minecraft tournament which I definitely second that is possibly my favorite of his vids. P.S. love your channel I have only seen reactions so far but I definitely want to look at all your other stuff I really enjoy it.
Please watch Technoblade beating Minecraft with a steering wheel. Also, I have to mention that these videos aren’t completely what he posts. He’s always hilarious, but this is much higher production than he usually bothers with.
That very is very high on my watch list! And I can only imagine them being different, if he spent this many hours on each video he’d only be posting once every 3 months
honestly my favorite of his videos are when he just plays bedwars or something and talks lol he’s so naturally entertaining; i could watch him ramble for hours edit: also i love his streams for the same reason
about some of the skyblock stuff: enchanted items are made from 160 of the base item, and 160 of the enchanted items can make another enchanted item (enchanted baked potatoes, enchanted diamond blocks etc.) at the time, the hard cap on minion slots was 24. as a base, every player has 5, with the cap increasing for every unique minion crafted, with each minion being able to go from tier 1 to 11, however the amount of unique minions it takes to increase the cap increases exponentially as you get more slots when he was talking about having more catalysts, he showed two double chests nearly full of crystal fragments, which are the main component in crafting catalysts, with each catalyst taking one crystal fragment and 8 endstone. so yes, he did have a lot more. farming potatoes manually does use the vanilla drop rate, however it can be increased, primarily by increasing the farming skill which gives a chance to double and then triple harvests ironman didn't officially exist at the time of recording, but some people would voluntarily have a profile for ironman (notably thirtyvirus). as of a recent update a week or two ago hypixel added an official ironman option to new profiles
The reason you found this less funnier is because you have zero idea about hypixel skyblock. Sorry to say but the third will *probably* be less "fun" for you. But for techno's audience this series was absolutely incredible, oh how much we missed his content for months when he was farming potatoes. And how much every1 was looking forward to for the finale
I can agree with you Aman, I still enjoy the videos even though I am far from knowledged in Skyblock but I'm learning a lot from you guys commenting and still appreciate the high quality video never the less!
I’ve really enjoyed your reactions to Techno and Dream. I love how deep you go with the analysis. I’m sure you have a list of things to react to but I’d love to see your reaction to the 8th Minecraft Championship if you wanted to. Dream and Techno team together, and it’s an amazing event. It’s pretty long, so if you didn’t want to watch the whole thing I’d recommend the video Techno did of it on his channel. Thanks for the awesome videos! I’ve really enjoyed them.
Happy to know you enjoyed how I break down the videos and my thought process behind it! I have heard a lot about reacting to the Minecraft Champsionships so might have to do a multiple part reaction if it's extremely long. Thanks for sticking around Melody
So far I am loving your content. I happened to see this channel only cuz I wanted to see others react to it. Not going to lie probably my favorite YT videos rn. The potato war is just to good. But yeah keep up the work you will soon get up there.
The RU-vid gods have decreed that I should watch you today, and I just want to say that I love your commentary on what hes doing because some reaction channels are just sit there and get ad revenue off of it. Well deserved sub.
I’m so proud of our pig boi 😭😭 I’ve not been in the mcyt fandom for long but he’s the first I’ve watched and I’ve found so many wonderful creators from him
15:28 At the time of recording the potato wars, there were no boosts that could increase farm drops besides increasing your farming level, but now, there's the level 100 legendary elephant pet, (+50% crop yield) Farming 60, (They increased the level cap from 50 to 60 and that gives you a +40% boost from level 50) Harvesting 5, (+62.5%) Tier 5 Pythagorean potato hoe (+50%)
This is the way I understand it: You get minion slots through more unique minion types. The upgraded versions of minions also count. The Problem with that is that the cost of getting new unique upgraded minions is exponential and the cost gets absurd, but if you have all minions the only way to get to the next minion slot is to upgrade. It's like, you need 8 basic items for the first minion upgrade, then 8 stacks, then later 8 Stacks of items that cost a few Stacks of the basic item each (that's the enchanted stuff, you get that stuff by crafting a lot of the basic items together) and so on and so forth. So you can imagine how much harder the later minion slots get.
24 minions slots is the maximum The potato rank is measured by each players potato collection. So it’s not based on the number he holds at any one time, it’s based on potatoes he’s collected overall, and it only counts for him. Enchanted items are for the most part, crafted either 160 of the non enchanted item. For example 1 enchanted potato is 160 normal potatoes. There is an ‘iron man’ way to play, but it’s up to players discretions as far as I’m aware.
160 (most of the time) of a single material ex. diamonds are needed to make 1 enchanted version ex. enchanted diamond. There is sometimes another level of enchanted-ness, like enchanted baked potatoes, which you need 160 of enchanted potatoes, or a total of 25,600 potatoes for one enchanted baked potato. Also, a full inventory of carrots is worth around 5k coins. To get to a reasonable place in the game, it would take around 1m in total. (for me at least) there are many different types of minions, 1 for most collectible items in the game, and 11 tiers to each minion, making the max minion slots (before some new updates) 24 after crafting every tier of every minion. There are also private islands and public islands. the private islands are the islands you can build on and destroy stuff on, it is your own home. Public islands are islands that anyone can access, which was built by the hypixel build team, and some things can be destroyed like crops on a farming island that you saw techno do in the first video. There is also a enchantment that you can put on a hoe that has like a 60-70% chance to double crops, and there is a farming skill you can level up to increase your chances to double, and eventually triple your harvests. Also all things are unbreakable, making gold tools the best tools in the game (besides all of the other non-vanilla stuff. They also have a mode for "Ironman" which means no player interacion, no auction house, no bazaar (bazaar is a place where you can instantly sell things, like a stock market? idk about stocks and stuff)
1 Enchanted Item variant is equal to 160 of the non enchanted version. So 1 stack of enchanted flints is 160*64 flints, which is equal to 10240 flints. Yes, that's a lot.
24 minion slots is (actually was cause now you can get like 5 more with an npc by waiting 1, 4, 8, 24 and like 40 days in that order) the max amount of minions you could get, and its hard cause at that point you need to craft 50 more unique minions and you are crafting the most expensive ones (normally you alredy have the chepiest ones) so yeah its hard
To unlock minion slots you need to craft a certain amount of new minions. (Which means you have to craft a minion you never crafted before)And to craft minions you need LARGE amount of rare items to craft minions.
To know a lot about skyblock summed up in a few videos that are kinda outdated but still good is techno’s skyblock series I think around 6-9 episodes you can find them all in his playlist section a reaction series to it would be very cool!
for some reason i decided to do the math to find the conversion rate of USD to skyblock coins using the everage price of a single potato IRL and a conservative estimate from what google says a stack of enchanted potatos currently sells for in the AH. the exchange rate based on my math is $1 = 7.2 coins. you're welcom
To make one enchanted flint you'll need five 32's regular flint crafted in a crafting table. 32 x 5 = 160 regular flint = 1 enchanted flint 160 x 64 = *10,240* regular flint = 64 enchanted flint. Now Techno had 9 rows of 64 flint in 10 chests 9 x 10 = 90 90 x 10,240 = *921,600* Enchanted Flint. There ya go I hope my math was correct-
The enchanted items are basically just condensed versions of the normal items so in it's normal form it'll be Even more items and they are condensed by a large amount around like 1,000 or so per enchanted item more of an estimate though
"rare drop from high level spider boss and surrounded by 10million coins worth of stuff"-techno Seconds later This guy" I don't know if you get it from a high level boss or if it cost alot"
More sound effects over parts of the video that bring out a certain reaction from you would also be more engaging for viewers. Of course not too much nor too loud or it'll be annoying but the like outro just some smooth sounds to help us stay engaged. Great vidoe though onto the last one.
To get enchanted stuff you have to combine like 8 stacks of the normal item to get one and than you get8 stacks of the one item that takes 8 stacks of the normal item to make to make a enchanted one and than you need 8 stacks of that item to make 1 flycather and also you need a item that has a 1 percent chance to drop from killing tarantula boss
Well it’s kinda hard to explain the value of the skyblock coins but u can for example mine 64 cobble an sell it to an npc for 64 coins and sell it at the bazar for even more depending on the fluctuations in demand I think
Getting over 14 minions u need to have experience in hypixel by purchasing for getting 24th one u literally need to purchase by spending over 100million coin... Getting 10mil is soo hard even defeting all boses u wont get that much coins
Yeah, Technoblade has a lot of resolve which I admire a lot, if you wanna check out an analysis video of/for technoblade check out Frostbyle Freedmans ‘Why technoblade never dies’ video featuring the Dream VS technoblade duel :D Ps: I like your funny words magic man >:D subbed 👍🏻
Parents: *Lets their kid watch "Potato War" cuz it seems harmless* Kid after watching all three potato wars: *Knows mass calculations can make detailed profiles of people in their mind and thinks they are superior to all* Parents: F*** we messed up BAD. Kid: *Is literally blackmailing people because he can tell just by looking at them what they like and what they care about and thinks they are the hot s*** wherever they go* Parents (on phone): We need the government to come take this child before he becomes a literal prodigy and destroys the entire world. Does next Wednesday work? Technoblade: o0o
Oh my gosh, I disappear for a month and you're channel is exploding (as it should! wonderful, quality videos man!). pssst, better be careful before Microphone Protective Services show up on your front steps :/
If you think he faked this 17:40 as a Technoblade follower I can confirm he isn't lying In Dream SMP He tamed hundreds of dogs to invade L'manberg with Dream and Philza all because he knows that they have a policy not to kill dogs.
