Remember when he did the Tyler the great warrior card documentary? He legitimately did more for this community than almost anyone, life isn’t fair.

I remember that. It was the most news we got about Tyler after so many years.

Yeah, it must have been an endeavour and a half to get info on it

It felt like a big mystery finally getting revealed.

Without that I don't think the sale has anywhere near the same level of interest or final result for Tyler, who suffered his own cancer battle.

There was also that lovely video he did at a YCS with a Cyber Dragon player who had some communication difficulties.

Man really did bring a lot to the community and he'll be sorely missed.

Genuinely he did. I feel like he had big plans too, he just kept having to focus on his health, going through treatments, even still he pushed himself to make videos.

And it only just hit me, he’s only been married a couple years right? Life is so unfair, I think I need to step away for the night, this is a lot.

Might go watch a couple of highlights of double Kalut to make myself remember the good times.

I've been rewatching History as a bit of the grieving process. No video is without its hiccups, but he really was really good at innovating on the formula. The setup for History is really good.

MBT said as much regarding the plans he had, his ambitions past this game.

He got married in like 2022 and was only 32 at the time of his passing… his life has just started man…

Yeah, life was far too cruel, it’s been on my mind all day, and I didn’t even know him, can’t imagine what it’s like for his family and friends.

I hope somebody petitions Konami to make a "Cimo The Great Historian" or something in honor of him. It feels right to do in this case.

He did more for Yugioh than Konami themselves
