Sharing his first interaction with the star, Skeppy further added:

"Technoblade was the best, I swear to god. I do not have one bad memory with Techno. I still haven't fully able to process. I first met Technoblade on one of his Skywars livestream. I can't remember how long ago it was but what I do know is I was like the new kid on the block at the time and I wanted to get Technoblade's attention so I started to spam in his YouTube livestream chat and I guess it worked.
