Canadian Highlander || Friday Night Paper Fight 2024-06-21 

Canlander is my fav format to watch and be engaged with. Thank you for making it such a staple of LRR's MtG rotation.

The phased-out token also takes the shadowspear with it. Mostly important for if you try to do that in a tournament.

Please bring back memes and moxens it was in my opinion the most fun magic content to watch on all platforms. I love seeing Jank cards played.

MEMES AND MOXEN MENTIONED!!!!

Wheeler's Drip is on point. New haircut, fresh shaven, crisp white shirt. CUH-LEEN!

Obviously, Sheoldred wears jeans as a hat (waist band on the head, legs in the air). It's even represented in the art.

i love the merch acquired from my preferred card gaming streamers, Loudly Read and Run

FTGay is my new name for pyrogoyf

That last Nelson Wheeler game was amazing! Love canlander content

Excellent, as always. Thank you! My favorite content to watch, period!😊

“I’m going to top before I draw-” “Happy pride!” This is the kind of content I am here for ❤ always love Canlander content from y’all!

I always like to see Alex back! I wonder if he's gonna be in Friday Nights?

Love seeing flying men gameplay. It's such a wild deck concept but runs so well

Love seeing Alex back in the canlander scene.

52:00 you can spin top, respond by tapping it to draw, then after the draw but before the spin resolves, mountaincycle to shuffle top away then spin resolves and you get another look

Yay Alex and canlander, thanks Team

48:12 Seek the Beast lasts until your next end step, so if you cast it main phase you only have the cards available until you move to that turn's end step

M&M? As a treat?

I love alex's humor. When he asked if serge was going to maybe poop i lost it 💩

Loved that last game. Some really good back and forth. Also appreciate how cool Nelly is.

Always happy to watch some Canlander.

Hard retweet on Wheeler saying Magic players are more focused and motivated on calling new cards other people think are good, bad, rather than the inverse. I think it’s a pride thing, if you call something good and it doesn’t pan out, you’re a dummy and a bad magic player of course, and if you’re right, EVERYONE was saying it’s good, but if you call something bad and it turns out to be bad, you’re a smart and shrewd sage, and if you’re wrong, oh well, at least you aren’t the dumb idiot who called a trash card amazing.

handsome AND smart

Always love the Canlander nights!

The best MTG format of them all!

Couldn't Serge sac the food at the end of game 1 to survive?

The sound of shuffling must haunt all of the editors dreams.

I'm here to bring attention to "the algorithm"

That last game was a nail-biter

Serge is so handsome and smart

Lrr has really indoctrinated me into canlander

don't worry serge, you can trust us with your pulse! beat beat beat beat beat beat beat beat beat beat beat beat beat beat beet

@Serge i know it's not necessarily that big of a deal, but you explained the saga sequence wrong to Alex. I have a Tom Bombadil commander deck, so I had to teach myself how to explain this. State based checks don't happen while the chapter trigger is on the stack, as the game has active effects happening. This means that at the beginning of Alex's precombat main phase, he puts a lore counter on Urza's Saga, this doesn't use the stack and is un interactable, then Saga triggers putting an effect on the stack for the corresponding chapter on the Saga, this IS interactable like almost anything that uses the stack, even though this is the final chapter nothing happens yet, as priority passes and the stack resolves he goes and finds his 0 or 1 costing artifact and puts it on the battlefield, then he shuffles. Finally, once the stack is clear, Urza's Saga checks to see if the number of lore counters is equal to the number of chapters, if at THIS SPECIFIC POINT these numbers are equal and NOT BEFORE does the state based action cause the owner of the saga to sacrifice it. The reason why this is important to me is because I built my aforementioned Tom Bombadil deck to take advantage of this interaction. If you were to use an ability like Power Conduit's to remove a lore counter at instant speed from a saga, you can put what would be the final counter on a saga, have the trigger go on the stack, in response remove a lore counter, have the ultimate effect of the saga happen, but the saga will stick around, because the state based check returns a lesser value.

Wheeler, are we taking about Powerstone 1 or Powerstone 2? Because yes on both accounts, I need a Powerstone

This Yager guy is so handsome and smart

The prof sent me to see some Canadian highlander. I need to figure out who the hidden commander of each deck is!!

those awkward moments where you want to keep up blockers but your cards only do stuff on attack

Serge is so handsome and smart.

>Names the deck "Food Fight" >Can't even run Food Fight

Canlander!

You either shake hans with a goyf 😁😁😁

Yaey, Canlander!

Canlander enjoyers, rejoice!

Alex could not have played the 2nd mountain for the fire blast, your next end step is the turn you play it or your opponents and you yours if you play it on your opponents turn

Merchant Scroll to zero was such a mistake.

wow serge, you are so handsome and smart

not to be that guy (but also to be that guy) at 10:40 shouldn't alex hold his pyrokinesis for his turn? he has all the cards used in the sequence (pyrokinesis, lightning strike, incinerate and lava dart) if he does, he can use the extra point from kinesis to deal with serge's 3/3. certainly it does 2 less damage for that turn, but leaving serge with a blocker for future turns seems odd. especially when pyro wouldn't loose its free casting cost, and might only get better if we draw a worse red spell turn

Man, flipwalker Tamiyo is BACKBREAKING in 1v1

34:53 “That homeboy is R to the F to the G”, does this mean,, Really Fucking Gone? That would be absurdly funny im so sad nobody asked 🤣🤣

So handsome. So Smart.

You don’t need a special month to say trans rights, Ben. It’s stupid to say EVERY month of the year. While we’re at it, promoting pronouns is cancer year-round, too.

Man. Serge is so handsome and smart

O: Yes! Alex is back once more.

Alex how I’ve missed you, Paul how I appreciate you

already watched this on twitch, but commenting because god i love canlander! More!

Game 1, doesn't Serge crack a food to live?

"The hard thing about blue isnt counterspells, its cantrips" I cannot agree with that sentiment harder as someone who recently put together an izzit phoenix deck for timeless. getting the right cantrip sequencing can be a lot to think through.

The 1st two turn cycles of Alex v. Serge are something to behold. I am so excited for the 2 hours upcoming.

Ooo new lrr lore dropped. Memes and moxen, returning faces, and great vibes count me in! Also wish me luck I'm throwing a canlander charity event at my lgs soon and hopefully it'll be a lot of fun.

1:29:56 A gay friend once told me that I dress too straight. Still not sure what it means.

Man Serge really is so Handsome and Smart

Nelly ripping the Tolarian Academy after Wheeler dropped the Winter Orb felt so good

Seek the Beast... won't let you play two lands from it since you lose the cards at endstep

Serge and Alex shipping Sam and Frodo is exactly what I need this Pride month

Serge is so handsome and smart.

44:15 In order to make second breakfast you've gotta bust a few eggs?

In answer to why the skydiver autoequips, Zendikar rising had an equipment subtheme and IIRC colossus hammer was in standard at the time. I always loved the mental image of the skydiver flying in, grabbing the hammer, and then falling to the ground as it takes away flying.

Let’s go!

Literally about to comment and wheeler beat me to the applause break 👏

Nelson, why did you put Trinket Mage in your graveyard. That's not what Subtlety does

HE SAID THE M&M WORD

At 52:10, after you found the mountain cycle, you wanted to - pay 1 to look at the top 3 - in response draw with top - mountain cycle while the look at the top 3 was still on the stack

1:26:46 I was really hoping after that deep inhale, Wheeler was just gonna be like "Actually collector boosters are great and support a part of the community that people unjustly hate just because they don't make money and..."

Game one, you could've lived through pop by sacrificing the food, and you could've made another food with goose

Habanero looks like a sweet deck, I'm seriously considering building that as my first real Canlander deck!

poor nelly having to play against a deck with TWENTY counterspells in it serge is very handsome and smart though

Can someone explain why serge didn't crack a food to stay at 1 life after the price of progress? He only had 2 lands and had the mana to tap.

Serge sais canlander is his favourite format but it seems like he is playing commander😅

9:35, isn't that just what everyone thinks when Serge is on screen?

ENGAGEMENT thanks for the fnpf friends

Yay for more Canlander! :D

Canlander my beloved

Obligatory comment to get to the nice number

1:34:00 lame lethal is Copper Tablet

9:55 my god, you are so handsome and smart Serge?

Man this Serge dude is so hamsome and sndart

last wheeler v nelson game was a banger!

I am SO here for the new ACAB arc of FNPF

Canlander beloved

Finally Alex!!

1:34:05 Personally I think lame lethal is the time where people were slow rolling Sudden Shock for the kill and letting opponents go through the motions.

How many mugs do I have on my desk?!? I have never been more called out. I shall now go shame clean.

When the vapor snag damage actually matters, it always feels so good.

At time of posting Card Kingdom is currently out of buttons

Alex, how's Prey's Vengeance en lieu of Staggershock?

Oh god food fight is a proto hubris cannon isnt it?

What a Sunday blessing! Great games!

New series: Twitch plays a pacemaker

LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOO

POG
