If you’ve been playing CS: GO for any amount of time, you have probably wondered: Is Tommyinnit dead? The speculation surrounding Tommy’s death is rampant on the Dream SMP server, but is it canon? The question that has been lingering in the back of your mind is largely driven by the character’s personality. The following will explore the various reasons why Tommyinnit is considered dead in the game.
Speculation about Tommy’s death
Speculation about Tommy’s death abound, but is there anything to it? The answer to that question will be revealed in Season 5 of Peaky Blinders when the gang is on the hunt for the rat. Some speculate that Tommy is playing a Jekyll and Hyde role and that the rat may have escaped the gang’s clutches. A possible explanation is that Tommy is deliberately busting his plan to ferret out the rat.
Another theory suggests that Tommy has murdered Arthur and the other characters of the show, which has been causing much speculation about his death. Other theories center around the meeting between Arthur and Tommy. This meeting is believed to be a set-up to murder Tommy, but other fans are skeptical. 
However, the cigarette and the shot of someone watching Tommy in the mirror seem to tie in with the theory. However, there is no concrete evidence that backs this theory.
A different theory has emerged. Speculation about Tommy’s death suggests that he was not an ordinary fish. Though Tommy survived being out of water in the Sprite bottle, he did not succeed in saving his daughter. In his final moments, Tommy has been haunted by the thought of being suffocated by smoke, and his mother, Clementine, has remained in his dream.
Reactions to his death on the Dream SMP server
After the news of Tommyinnit’s death on the Dream SMP server broke, many fans shared their theories and speculations. One YouTube user called Tommy’s death “anti-climatic”, and said he felt bad for his character. However, some believed that Tommyinnit had been killed twice by Dream, and his third death was canon. Another argued that Tommy had died due to final exams.
As fans speculated, Tommy had been a frequent streamer on the Minecraft SMP server. Among his gaming videos, Tommy dominated SMP Earth and Minecraft Championship. Fans reacted to Tommyinnit’s death with shock and sadness. Some even felt Tommy’s death was a sign of a deeper threat to Dream’s survival. But as the community rallied to his side, many were moved by the fact that Dream’s server was so close to home.
When Dream left Dream’s prison, Tommy was in denial, and even tried to commit suicide. After that, he realized that Dream never really became his friend. However, when Tommy died, he was devastated, and it made him feel like a failure. The dream had been after him since he first joined Dream SMP, and his discs had become his prized possessions.
Whether or not it’s canon
Several Dream SMP fans have wondered whether or not Tommyinnit’s death is canon. The character died twice during the War for L’Manbergian Independence, but is the second death a canon death? The canon death is one that the Dream SMP writers choose as a plot point, and counts towards the overall Dream SMP. However, there are no official answers to this question.
While Tommy’s death is not “canon,” the death of Jack is still a big plot point. Without his death, Jack wouldn’t be the character we know and love today. On the wiki, Jack acknowledged the death. Fans consider it to be canon because Tommy killed a man while he was depressed in exile. However, there’s no official confirmation that Tommy’s death is canon, which makes the question even more baffling.
As a fan of the series, I think Tommy’s death may be canon, especially since the episode is set in the afterlife. After his death, he was shaken, and he wanted to prevent Wilbur from returning. Consequently, Tommy put his work on the Big Innit Hotel on hold, watched the prison, and planned to kill Dream when he had the chance.
