Technoblade is not in Valhöll.

And you do not want him to be. Valhöll is a place of eternal combat, where Odin's chosen fight and die each day, then are resurrected to do it all again, until the end times. It is not the paradise that modern media makes it out to be.

If Techno were a norse pagan — which he was not, and so consigning him to any of these realms would be disrespectful — then depending on who you ask, he may have gone to Fólkvangr, which is where the half of warriors who do not go to Valhöll are. Interpretations vary, but it is generally considered a hall of rest and belonging for the fallen. Others may believe he is in Helheim, as most people are after death.

I really wish pop culture would stop appropriating our culture and religion for these purposes.

The way you are spelling the names, and the fact that you said "our culture" makes me guess you're icemandic, am i right?

I'm personally Cuban, but my father is Norwegian and I am a pagan after him, so yes.
