There has been a controversy brewing on the Minecraft side of VIworld centered around well known Minecraft creator Dream. He's been accused of faking his speedrun and it has caused a lot of stir. I'm not here to point fingers or accuse anyone. What I'm doing today, Theorists, is going over the facts of this situation and why it is a lot more complicated than people are making it out to be.

I trust Dream yes he cheated but i think he so good a Man (I'm not a side account of Dream) :)
Plenty of speedrun games feature randomness at a high level, whether it stems from physics interactions, AI behaviors or something else. As a result, speedrunners spend ridiculous amounts of time running the level over and over, not necessarily to improve their skill, but simply to get that lucky constellation of circumstances. Since speedrunners at the top level all have roughly the same skill, the one that gets lucky ON TOP OF THAT will be the one with the record, forcing all players to grind for that bit of luck. This applies to Minecraft as well. The Piglin bartering might seem like just a slot machine, but there are other factors like where the End Portal spawns or where you come up when coming back from the Nether, etc. Yes, you can mitigate these to some degree with player skill, but if the world record is a similarly skilled player AND they get lucky (because they've been trying over and over), they're going to get a better time.
I saw mr beast in the background lol
(I got the Latex ref, good times.)
I think dream cheated his speedrun
Short answer: Yes
7
Dream became famous over night. He made a couple videos, and then boom. 20 million subscribers in a year and a half. It's not like cheating is gonna do anything to his ad revenue.
Me beast😂😂😂😂
animemusic
Pov: your a dream fan
Dreams about teeth if you do he'd be on top of the leaderboard
Wtf are you trying to say? I didn't understand anything you said.
1:40 Is that a starcraft broodwar marine assultrifle?
EYYY ITS A STARCRAFT FAN AFTER LIKE A COUPLE YEARS I FIND A FELLOW STARCRAFT "ER" OUTSIDE OF STARCRAFT RELATED STUFF!!! I only play sc2 only played the first 1 or 2 missions of sc 1
Matpat knows more math than many of those "math professors" that gave their answer
Wtf happened in this video
Yes, Dream cheated.
Matpat I have been watching you since the start of the FNAF theories it would be a DREAM if you could respond.
Ооо повезло повезло
Are you Theodd1sout
trash
@Sun-Moon-Dragon ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
nobody cares
I mean showing his work kinda means he’s honest? I’m really not sure and am super late to that thing but I’m neutral
Honestly, you dont seem to understand speedruns. Its a hobby for most. They do it for fun. They like the luck. You pass it off as the lottery, but I could get the perfect seed and get last place.
For those who want the answer: He doesn’t give a answer
FOr htose who want the answer he cheated
I could of just read the top comment but ok
0:14 "today I am gonna but EVERYTHING in a store including MatPat and whoever this guy
MatPat should have known from Undertale not to undertake such a controversial topic. The reason there's a controversy is because the gray area is shunted into a society that only sees things in black and white. He couldn't give an answer because there is none. Luck is in so many shades of gray the novel was split into 8 sequels, it is indifferent. There is no "Dream did or did not cheat." We will never know unless he comes clean, but if he is telling the truth and he did not, people still won't believe him because his response will remain the exact same as it is now, and see where the current answer got him.
so did mattpat do the usual "The subject has been resolved already, and i will contribute nothing to it but will make a 20 video out of it to get add revenue"?
This video really doesn't get enough flak.
Ok but matpat where is the answer? I cant help but feel he may not have cheated but u promised an answer and u didnt give one... Tf
Stop this conclusion things, I give you an idea to know wether this guy is cheating or not. JUST WATCH THEM PERSONALY
In the Super Mario tennis game. It is sibling rivalry.
I just understand the binomial distribution stuff but the other stuff is harder
0:52 Only people who are dumb feel the pain💀🤚
Yes he cheated, it is statistically impossible for his runs to happen. You can still watch Dream, it’s not like all he does is speed runs
Wow, this is such a great first impression on a channel! Nonsensical rambling, almost zero actual research or explanation on the situation and on top of that, you do your best to make a pro dream video while denying it's a pro dream video. At least be a man and admit it.
"If you've ever tried to use word... It DoN't WoRk!" Me: "Uhhh? Insert tab then symbol?"
Dream hat nicht geschummelt nicht
I just remembered big vibe block Fossils existed, does anyone know what they came from?
Pathetic apologia for a cheater. Extremely disappointing.
Edication
You are everything I hate
This is the Game Theorist channel that everyone always talks about? So they just trash things they don't understand and waste a lot of time trying to be funny while saying nothing real? You literally said "Are we sure that [Minecraft] should have a speedrun board in the first place?", what the hell are you talking about? Of course they should, all games get to have one and Minecraft is like the most popular game ever. Just because you personally don't think luck-based runs are fun to speedrun doesn't mean it's they're not fun to speedrun and shouldn't exist. What a dumb video. Apparently I missed out on nothing important by not watching this channel as a kid.
People already found a way around this without removing Piglins. Just switch quadrants and a bastion with enough gold should spawn. Matpat’s conclusion is to change the rules because he did not try to find a solution. What a shitty video.
Just letting you know he wouldn’t hide his answer like this if he didn’t think his friend cheated
thats what happened with all of dreams friends. in the tweets where dream defended his run, his friends always replied with something like 'yeah u cant do this sort of stuff'. but once allegations slowly turned to reality, those comments stopped coming
I remember one time in a lesson in school taking about statistics the teacher mentioned the whole flipping a coins 10 times and getting heads 10 times in a row, so I started flipping a coin and much to my dismay I got 9 heads in a row. I will never forget my disappointment
0:14 da frik?
60+ Heads
Scripted or real still awesome
No
Either provide evidence or go away Stan
I'm happy that even after all these years, Matpat still is raking in millions.
flipping a coin 10 times and getting 7 heads
Lol dream never cheated
1 in 7.49999 trillion isn't suspicious to you
The historical cheek recurrently dislike because copper frustratingly record at a flagrant flower. eager, impartial environment
i just got into high school in australia and i love physics
Matpat I have a theory about on Final fantasy 7 They can't used the phoenix down Because it's in the game not on the real story and the phoenix they can't use it maybe it's just a replica of phoenix and they can't revive aerith Or maybe the phoenix is just a clone Or in a stone that make the phoenix Power weaker or maybe the phoenix doesn't wanna revive anyone because the phoenix imprisonment
On the stone Watch the final fantasy movie Search (Advent children) This is the movie of it watch it matpat
For people wanting to get an actual ANSWER about this, go check out Stand Up Math's video about Dream.
This man really spend over 20 minutes dancing around the actual answer and changing the topic, huh?
The applejacks and Froot Loops 😂
Unrelated but do think matpat really understands bhoping because I think that if he doesn't that's really funny but doesn't matter.
People who want the pop quiz answer: It's the left one :)
Ffs matpat you don't even answer it properly and all you do nowadays is drag in viewers. ESPECIALLY with the 'undertale 2' instance, Toby Fox had to tell you that you were wrong. Used to watch you all the time man, but things changed.
Great work! I really appreciate you teaching us new things ☺️, I am 13 and this is my favourite channel, and you bring new motivation to learn and don't give up learning, when you're teacher's kinda suck...
100
I watch these videos and get straight A's Thanks mr fun teacherman
My teacher used this video as a review on statistics, i love Mat Pat
It’s kinda silly now that I know that he didn’t fake his speed run like now a days mat just jumps on the newest trends ( like hating on dream ) without doing anything math.
Did you do the math? Btw, the verdict has already been passed.. so, no need to worry. Dream cheated.
You know Dream still cheated right? His rebuttal was disproven.
Sorry but I’ll always hate dream for endorsing the flow squid
F-
3:26 Very Common Meme
Matpat’s IQ to me : 219
60/100
matpat new minecraft theory suggestion: soul sand because i think it's the key on the other theories or the missing piece on the lore
All of these people complaining about how he didn’t actually give an answer obviously didn’t pay attention. He made it very clear that there is no way to actually clear cut say he did or didn’t cheat. It’s like a crime investigation. You can present a lot of evidence, but that doesn’t guarantee that they actually did or didn’t do it. There will always be probable loop holes and ideas that challenge your evidence. There is always a possibility that you are wrong. He didn’t want to give us an answer that could be wrong because no one can say that there is no way he didn’t cheat, but they can’t say he did.
@Jonah Clements Agreed, you have to draw the line. You wouldn’t be able to reasonably discredit most speedruns because they were theoretically possible in the RNG glitchless catergory.
With the statistics we are dealing with, if you don't accept the fact that Dream didn't cheat because "tHeRe's StiLl a cHaNcE hE DidN't cHeAt," you have to think literally everything that is ever said is true, since there is always a chance that it is.
Yeah, but it’s still a shitty video. He said we should change the rules of Speedrunning instead of proper thinking or basic research. He should already know people found a solution to piglins in Speedrun through ingenuity instead of complaining about RNG. This was such a trainwreck of a video. Should’ve just ended it with no conclusion.
Mmm dream thint cheat cause that has happend Abit of times it happend yo me
@Birb This isn’t Reddit, my guy.
R/Ihadastroke Also don't like your own comment
plot twist : Dream friend with Technoblade and piglin give more drop rate.
I don't know what to say...
7 out of 10
And there's film watching to because of film theory
So why is there so much Austin lately
i think we can all agree that dream suckts
@Frenchyboy I mean, we have to understand. The internet is not only for english speakers, and its hard to write on a phone. Also, the person writing this, but a youtube comment isnt what should define their intelligence. They spelled one thing wrong my guy.
@Birb thats not what I mean, I didnt say I did or didn't like him, I meant that not everyone will agree.
Well he cheated but his content is likeable to some people
Yikes, that shows how intelligent you are.
Role with the punchhs
MatPat didn’t give an answer but as a dream stan I can say the answer is yes, he did. There’s no way he seriously got THAT lucky. Dream is trying to BS his way out of it which is fine, but everything points to him cheating.
Old MatPat isn't cringey MatPat, Old MatPat is classic MatPat 😎
What software is your video created in? Adobe After Effects?
I just wanna know how many runs happen in between those 6 play through some. Like out of all the runs he had in between those 6 had that luck. I can believe that?

ANSWER THE QUESTION

I know dream lied cuz there is a person that is playing for him he said
Hello! I just wanted to say that there is a theory about the game Genshin impact and the two twins. Someone says that one of the twins had been taken 500 years in the future while the other one stayed at the same timeline when they got separated. We don’t know much and I’d really like to see you make a theory vid about it!
Hey, I watched this and when you brought up the divorce rates in Maine I was shocked because I live in there.
If you put a immortal monkey in front of a keyboard they will eventually beat the Minecraft speed run world record
This is a joke.
Its a joke that dream thought he could cheat and get away from it
I only had three teachers that were really helpful and made it easy to learn Ms,King Mrs,Ivorye and Mrs,Staples. Writing, Math, and Social Studies(History) these are my best subjects, even though I hate with a passion writing, and love science. But is was amazing to have those three to help me.
0:12 Is anyone going to talk about mrbeast in the background lol
60 0ut of 100
I bet you most of the dislikes were dream stans that were angry about matpat questioning their king dream ( no hate on dream or matpat)
I disliked cause he doesnt understand speed running.
I actually think most of the people who disliked it weren't dream stans, but the opposite, since Matpat didn't really answer anything in this video, and he just asked if speedruns should exist at all, which is stupid.
I have a headache now
dream is acctually a monster in the dream smp he is in a prison i still sub to dream
Mr Beast walking in the background with a full cart in the background was something I didn't know I needed 🤣🤣🤣
If you guys watch the vid it says the run revolves around luck I highly doubt he cheated but hey who will belive me.
Luck can still be analyzed with statistics.
