The Secret I've Kept Since The Great Potato War 

Be sure to consider donating to the charity attached to the video! Just gonna say again that if you're buying anything from the Hypixel store, make sure you use code "Squid" for 5% off! Everything I make from it, as well as a portion of what Hypixel makes from it (Thanks Simon Hypixel) will be going to the SFA until April 22!

Techno hit a bullseye with his assumption. You were playing checkers while he was farming potatoes.

bro really had to wait two years just to be *sure* Techno wouldn't suddenly appear and be like "nope, MY trophy, nerd!"

You've just created an infinite loop. Now Mp4 is going to do a pig race with you, and then as his secret backup plan he will farm squids...

You know while Techno was you're greatest "Enemy" I do appreciate the fact that you are raising money for him, because clearly you guys actually got along well outside of the potato war.

embezzeling war funds is insane

Imagine if techno had a squid farm too, that would be the ultimate "i outsmart your outsmarting that outsmarting my outsmart"

The thing that especially sucks is we all know Techno had so much more to give. It's like having a RPG character that has the passive ability "If he can do something and deems it worth it, he will do it automatically". Thanks for putting him back into my mind, I was already doing poorly during his time, getting another taste now that i'm doing better is so nice. He's definetly one of my role-models and he'll definetly remain in my heart. Technoblade never dies.

I love that you’re not the type of person who would be toxic and super angry at Techno for beating you in the Great Potato War, and even linked to a way to support his family. Fly high Techno, and thank you Squid.

Techno probably: "HEH?! I won because you were slaughtering millions of my kin on the side the whole time?! Phil better get that book, because I'm starting an ink sac collection!"

I can almost picture Techno in heaven going "WHAT!!!"

How fitting that a former rival of Technoblade back in the potato war days has gone on to take on the mantle of pork king. I’m sure Techno would be proud.

Techno would be 3 things: Impressed of you for such a Sly scheme, and Porkchops none the less. In disbelief as you technically were doing 2 leaderboards at once and had a notable amount still on him. Proud as its very abundant and clear that he's rubbed off on you and you are carrying a legacy by now matching him and taking a throne from another unsuspecting. It's also super heartwarming to see this feat being dedicated to him, may you prove might on the boards and more over, hold the fact that Techno Never Dies.

Tracking the competition meticulously and stealing away the #1 spot like a thief in the night - I think it's safe to say that techno has passed the torch to the one other person worthy to hold it.

Now Mp_4 needs to become no 1 in squid collection to keep the tradition alive

"Keep your plans impenetrable as the night, and when you move, fall like a thunderbolt" -Sun Tzu, The Art of War Great job squid!

Dude, this video is so cool, not only are the tributes to Technoblade really fucking sweet, but also the editing and the vibes are just immaculate, Squidkid, you’re one of the most inspiring people out there, if anyone is worthy enough to be called Technoblades rival, it would be you, keep being awesome man

Ima take this video as the Potato War Epilogue

W SQUID KID, TECHNO NEVER DIES

Took funds from a war to support another is crazy

Techno would be proud. You’re no longer just a squid kid. You are a squid MAN.

12:51 "he had a huge lead but i had more minion slots" History doesn't repeat itself but it sure as hell does rhyme

I lost to a back up plan... Joking aside, GGs squid, you beat me even though I didn't know you were competing lol. Again, Techno Never Dies

Well I definetly didn't think we would get a Potato Wars part 4, but here we are. Thank you squidkid Technoblade Never Dies

Technoblade's been real quiet since this dropped

Considering how much of an opponent The Blade saw you as, he'd be furious if you never took back the #1 spot. Live long and farm many potatoes.

Technoblade would be proud to learn, THE ENTIRE TIME YOU WERE SCHEMIN BEHIND HIS BACK!!!!!

the way i teared up the second i saw the techno statue you made for the pigs. gg man absolutely love that you finally got a number 1 spot that hopefully youll keep this time. technoblade never dies

The mantle has been passed onto Squid, the right person, a man who lived through the potato wars, a man who learned from his previous defeat and used everything he learned to sneakily win. It’s a pleasure seeing the amount of work you’ve put into this, taking the win in the sneakiest way possible, and how you’re humble and dedicated this to Techno. You’re an absolute legend Squid, I hope you win many more wars to come!

wow, i remember watching the potato war a few years ago. I'm a college freshman now. I am a grown ass man, crying as I remember the time when I would watch some dude sweat off at farming potato in minecraft. Thank you for this squid.

Rest in peace Alex. Can't believe it's been almost 2 years since he left us.

10:27 trick shotting beasts in order to farm the meat of your rival from years long ago, more efficently, is absolutely wild

sun tzu said... "if you lose a battle... make them lose their family."

Thank you again for being his opponent Squid. As Techno himself said, it would've never been as great if it wasn't you and was just some random guy. You were an incredibly important part of it all. This video is a really nice tribute. Congrats on finally making #1! Having it be in pork is probably the best possible resource to use as a tribute, I'm sure Techno would've agreed haha. Proud of how far you've come Squid. And really happy for you!

This is such a hit of nostalgia. The old texture pack, hypixel, bedwars, it's all coming back now...

I've been a huge fan of Techno since the racing wheel video. I found out about Hypixel Skyblock from Technoblade's first video. I immediately hopped on and started playing. I thought, that porkchop sword looks pretty dope, why don't I start grinding out these pig minions. It's been a good time. I held 2nd place for a long while under Emin7. I didn't think I'd ever make it past her, she unfortunately hasn't been playing the past couple years. I was so happy I made it to 1st and was able to hold it for this time. Pig minions have funded my entire Skyblock career. I've probably made close to $1.5 billion from porkchops. I will continue to grind pig minions.

Bros still keeping secrets to this day. Techno probably took many to the grave.

"The Cycle Is Now Complete, When I Left You I Was But The Learner Now I Am The Master" Squid Kid To Alex

Kinda poetic it was pork that got you to a number 1 spot in Hypixel again. Quite the journey

It all comes full circle. You've done well carrying the torch Squid, congrats! Technoblade never dies o7

What a wonderful video! To this day the potato war videos are some of the very favorite and how I found your channel and community. Congrats on the #1 spot.

Techno would probably say something like "yeah, good excuse for losing the Potato War". Jokes aside: thank you for this video. People like Technoblade should never be forgotten, and I feel like this is a really meaningful contribution.

Technoblade could have not asked for a better rival for the potato war, you truly are an amazing person and it hink it’s even more amazing what you did has a memorial to techno.

,,Only with a worthy rival that one can reach thier fullest potential"-Technoblade, the greatest mc legend i ever saw

Great spinoff and tribute to the technoblade kind of look and narrative of the video. Thank you squid kid

Man 2020-2021 were incredible years for Skyblock. I would be up for 12 hours playing Skyblock. I remember watching your farming stream and then techno's sudden YT stream declaring victory. I haven't really played SkyBlock after the whole potato war thing. I actually got into one of your screenshots from your guild which ended up on a techno video so I hopefully I'll rewatch that video years later and maybe remember Skyblock once more.

It takes someone quite legendary to rival techno, and you've proven just how capable and dedicated you can be. Someone has to carry that torch, and I couldn't think of someone better.

I think it's awesome that you're doing this in his memory. I never got to see Techno's streams when he was alive, I learned about him accidentally through Vanilla Tweaks. I have watched some of the VODs and laughed along with him. This is great. ☺

i finished this video almost 15 minutes ago and i simply cant stop crying, this makes me feel so happy to see life move on but memories move with it, i really miss techno's content and streams, and this video was a complete tear jerker, it's ubelieavable how much of an example of what a good person is techno is. Technoblade never dies!

You may have lost the potato war but you were a great rival for Technoblade. His videos on the Great Potato War were his best. Without you they would not have happened. So thank you. Ill be donating some more moneys. Techno would be proud and find it funny for you getting number 1 in pork. I just wish he would have been around to see it RIP. TECHNO NEVER DIES

This video made me remember how much I miss Technoblade ... Good to see an "epilogue" to The Great Potato War tho :)

This was very heartwarming and a joy to watch. Thank you for this, and your incredible part in the potato wars.

It's videos like this that make me appreciate the good-hearted nature of people. Keep doing what you're doing squidkid. It's awesome

Techno would love this. I mean, online he would have had to hop on and crush you, but behind the scenes he would be sending supportive messages with pride and in his videos (when they'd come out a full year later) he would sing your praises...after finding a way to defeat his enemies of course.

You and techoblade aspired me to be number 1 quartz. I got it and maintained it for years, but when crystal hallow came out a baritone bot was cheating to beat me. I tracked his mining on api he was up 24/7 and he would farm the same amount consistently every single hour. You had to mine quartz manually on your island and there's no way I could compete with him and with new mining fortune, mining quartz got "powercreeped" so my long term collection wasn't enough of a head start. I tried reporting him, but he never got banned so after I quit skyblock. (he's either banned now or quit). Awesome video thank you. Also shoutout to my friend juicyexe, he was number 1 in jungle wood and was the first one in a wood collection to ever reach 100million wood. Jungle wood wasn't even the fastest wood you could farm.

This was such a collection of bittersweet memories to come back to, but I’m glad we can still talk about Techno and find happiness in his memories instead of letting him be forgotten. Obviously, Mp4 needs to keep the tradition going with a squid farm, and I expect a similar video from them in a few years. Thank you for the video and the memories, Squid. Technoblade never dies.

I can hear it now. An ethereal voice from on high, gazing down at you, bellowing with one mighty... "... HAH!?".

Squid did taxes for this omg

Squid shall continue technoblade's legacy "YOU SEE MP4 YOU ARE THE PUPPET AND ME THE PUPPETEER DANCE FOR ME DANCE YOU WERE CASUALTY FARMING PORK WHILE I WAS STUDYING TECHNIQUES FROM TECHNO YOU FOOL YOU ABSOLUTE FOOL" "YOU SEE SQUID YOU ARE THE PUPPET AND I THE PUPPETEER DANCE PUPPET BOY DANCE YOU WERE PLAYING CHECKERS WHILE I WAS FARMING POTATOES YOU FOOL YOU ABSOLUTE BUFFOON" -the squid and the pig

I only discovered Techno about a year ago, after his passing. The potato wars were the first videos of his that I watched and I actually rewatched the series a few days ago. I teared up watching this it's amazing to see how many lives he's touched and will continue to touch even now

"Most opportunities are created by luck, but it takes skill to grasp those opportunities and turn them into success." Squid saw that pork and took the opportunity. Very well played. Techno never dies

While I am originally a Techno Fan, I have to say your video is really well made and honestly entertaining. I love your build honoring Techno at the end, it feels sweet.

We love you squid, thank you so much for this video. Brought back a wave of nostalgia for me and teared up during the last part. You are a worthy rival for techno always and both yall are great people who have impacted the community. Sending lots of love ❤️ techno never dies

You applied the techniques Techno have used in the Potato war to aid you in the Pork war. I am convinced that maybe, you're his apprentice for collection wars. The Potato war served not only as training, but also an aid for future wars to come.

Thats very great of you skido. Thank you for making part of our and his history. I understand what you mean, it really hasnt been the same, even for me, a simple fan... but diferently of other fans, i only met him when it was too late. Thats why i want to use what is rest of him in our hearths to build something, to build a new trone for a new hero. Techno never dies, thats cause he will always be in our hearths and hopeffuly, cause he will be a new cronw for someone great enough as him, his future. Long live the prince of porks, squiddo!

I cant describe how insane the emotion i felt when i saw the ttacking was, i found techno through mr.beast a few years ago then i found the potato war and you and now im crying in my bed at 10pm because at my lowest i watched old videos of this cool minecraft pig watching his opponents farming, tracking every last potato and now like 3 or 4 years later that 'enemy' is tracking every last porkchop that HIS new 'enemy' farms. You are your own person but it seems a lot of us agree that the torch has been passed on and you should carry it with pride.

You know it’s bad when a chest full of pork foreshadows your future enemy

Its been 2 years and im finally working up the courage to start rewatching all his videos :( I miss him so much. I was one of his earliest subscribers and subbed at less than 20k, Its still so difficult to understand hes gone. I miss the weekly uploads. RIP

alternate title: I systematically slaughtered my rival's species by numbers beyond human comprehension to make a leaderboard standing go to 1

The amount of nostalgia im getting from this video. Everything from it starting as a joke, to ramping ut up suddenly to extremely serious levels. The "why" question and techno answered it when it was you, even just the editing style. Thank you. Technoblade never dies.

Squid kid: I lost my home, the potato rank #1 Also Squid kid: So I created a backup plan to take someone else's rank #1

Technoblade never dies, but hundreds of millions of his brethren did, which I assume is why you chose pork. If you couldn’t beat Techno, you could at least become the #1 slaughterer of his people. Techno was such a blessing and so many lives were improved by his presence, o7 king.

Thanks for uploading this squid. Reminds me of how truly great Techno was. You were always his best rival…

OH MY GOD OF COURSE IT WAS YOU! I was the guy at 3rd place (1st at one point) before you overtook me and I found this video because a friend had sent it to me and I can't believe you!!! I've been planning this for the last 4+ years and you just come and overtake me LMAO The reason I started doing this was out of respect for Techno and the Great Potato War inspired me but you definitely deserve this Squid!! Great video!

I've seen a lot of Techno Tribute videos since the announcement. A lot of them have made me emotional and I've cried for most of them. But something about this video has really touched my heart in a way I can't put into words. I'm crying as I type this, but... it doesn't feel like a sad cry. It almost feels like closure, maybe even comfort. "Techno Never Dies" is something I've heard and said a lot. But this video has truly encapsulated that phrase, not through words, but through actions. Techno truly, will never die, simply because so many people were touched by him and his legacy. And nothing has truly captured that better than this because it started four years ago. Before everything, before the news, before the change. This was a plan set into motion because of Techno and I can't help but wonder how many other people have similar projects, goals, motivation, whatever that came from Techno, not just now. But from a time we all wish we could go back to. I'm not sure why I wrote this other than to say thanks for helping me remember what "Techno Never Dies" really means.

Fitting that you still continued on with this goal all these years later. I’m glad you finally got to be #1 in something squid, you made the original potato war some much more enjoyable and seeing you conquer your own challenge is awesome. I’m glad that the spirit of a legend lives on within the community all these years later. Rest in Power Techno ❤

I felt suprised to see you really. I'm happy your still doing what you love since the potato war.

Techno inspired me in some strange ways honestly. Starting this year I’m going to be working in a hospital in the oncology ward taking care of cancer patients and helping with research. Cheers to techno for being a positive influence driving me places I never thought I’d be

I don't havr much to say but wanted to help engagement. Thank you for being such a great rival for Techno, and I'm so glad you're doing great work!

Thank you for making such a momento for technoblade

I'm so glad that it's you that is #1 pork, it really does feel like a proper tribute to Technoblade.

Technoblade really did change the world, but all the greats would never have reached the heights that they did without their greatest competitors. Thank you for being his rival, even if it was a friendly competition, I found techno's videos because of the potato war and I'll never forget it. Technoblade never dies o7

o7 to the goat great video squid!

this was such a great video, and a really sweet, fitting tribute to him. thank you for putting so much care into this, it really shows. made me very nostalgic lol. and maybe a little teary. thank you to both squid and techno for everything. techno never dies!

Techno will forever be missed. Congrats, squid kid. You may have lost the potato battle, but it seems you've won the potato war.

This is such an interesting video, almost like the sequal to the potato wars noone knew they wanted. It's wild to think that you started this as a backup plan and the choice in pork is hilarious as not only due to techno's skin but also techno's own history with harvesting pork to make a super sword. I salute you squid kid, taking on a new challenge to both prove yourself and honor a lost friend, showing some of the same kinds of mental processes and physical efforts as the man who dethroned you. I am glad MP4 got to feel victory even it briefly though to not get completely upstaged. Hope to see more from you.

It's crazy that youtubers farm something random and beat players who have been doing it for years in just a matter of months.Technoblade was my favourite youtubers idk how I would be without watching him he actually made my mood better daily.... Thank u squid for letting the community remember about the potato war. I can happily say that Technoblade Never dies.

This made me smile. Makes me feel good knowing that techno lives on through others

Love this video bro, you and Techno were an epic rivalry to watch unfold, and I'm so happy that you've continued to make your own content as well! We will always remember Techno, but know that you are also becoming a great influence and leader in this community as well.

yoooo i visted your island and i saw this pig minion set up so i thought its your way of giving respect to techno before this was made. love it a lot man

It is said that Techno still haunts squid's potato farm. RIP Techno...

This actually made me cry ;-; GG, Squid. TECHNOBLADE NEVER DIES!!

It would be hilarious if someone found a random Techno alt with a bunch of squid minions on it. This was a really nice video, and I'm glad that you and Techno had such a great relationship. Thanks for making it, and for contributing to the fight.

thank you so much squid for keeping him alive in spirit! really loved this type of video, it has an essence of techno in it! thank you for making this!

I love how you honor your long term rival in this way.

This was an amazing video. It sucks that we still don't have a figure like Techno after two years, but even worse that we lost him to begin with

Technoblade helped me when I was in a really bad place in my life, it makes me so happy to see that others grieved him and miss him just as much as I do. I'm glad you honored him this way, I know at the very least you put a smile on my face and preserved his memory.

whats even crazier about this video is that technoblade will NEVER know about this

I wouldn't be apposed to the another collection war. The Great Pork War.

I really miss Technoblade, I hope he is still up there fighting God, just like he said.
