I'm so hyped for this series

hearing serge and wheeler talk through their plays and their thought process is fascinating, loving this show so far

I can't stress enough how much I am going to enjoy watching these! I love canlander paper friday nights, and these will fill in that void of watching paper magic. Also just enjoy seeing a variety of different decks.

Ah man I've been excited for this ever since it was announced, glad it's finally here! This should be a great matchup too.

I miss the random Paul's comment in the background. Great series, nicely edited, best players. Serge and Wheeler are national treasure.

i live vicariously through Serge and Wheeler playing Canlander :D

Finally get to see sandy played by wheeler. Probably one of my favorite decks ever.

Hell yes North 100 showdown I always love the prerecorded content you wonderful people do.

The only downside is that we don't get an episode everyday! This is the type of magic content that I crave, thank you so much for creating this new series!

I'm surprised Wheeler isn't wearing the Beej Phases shirt, to counter Serge wearing the regular phases shirt.

Immediately enjoying this. Also, "KZfaq has a 2x speed is a devastating roast.

This is fascinating to watch. I wonder if, since these are meant as pretty much "exhibition matches", taking it to a best of 5 instead of 3 would be a thing to do just by default (or at least removing treating it as a standard best-of-3 match). The goal isn't to see who wins, but to show off the decks.

My favorite deck that Ben has played is Sorensen Tempo, and Serge on any configuration of lands is so much fun to watch! Btw if y'all are considering throwing in some guest stars, I'd love to see Ben Ulmer stomp y'all with RDW or Blue moon!

I was starting to think about re watching the vod for "episode 0". Thanks so much for this guys this is so nice

Going back and catching up on these. Not getting a, "Thanks for having me, Serge, it's great to be here," sent chills down my spine.

I am 100% going to be showing these to people, I'm aiming to start a canlander scene at my uni and this feels like an easy in to the format in tandem with some proxied decks

This is so great. I just love the mix of seriousness, gentleman rivalry and love for the game. Loving this.

Never stop doing these!

I love the format, but even more I love how you too play it, openly discussing the lines and what you're trying to do. It's very fun and stimulating to follow.

North 100 is always there to brighten my day when I need it most! Stoked for this new series and hope it's here to stay!!

Great games guys! Love the alternate line discussion and am so hyped for this!

Massive appreciation for this series! You guys are the best.

The discussion on different lines is great!

SOOOOOOOOOOOO thankful to get more CHL action. I miss Jeremy putting in games, too, as we have even less content. Every time LRR does CHL, I always get sad when they hit the last game and call time. Thankful to get a bit more to watch (although I'd stick around if you jammed like 5-7 games vice 2-3). Cant wait for next week. Would love to see Ben's take on an updated Jeskai Control deck, too.

Always happy for more CanLander content!

This was a really chill watch. I'd love to see more of it.

This is exactly the kind of series I've wanted since I first heard about Canadian Highlander from LRR. Thank you for making it! I can't wait for more

So excited for even more impeccable canlander content from you guys, this was great!

This is exactly what I’ve been wanting for years! Super hyped.

This was great! I'm glad this is a series, and I look forward to the next one. :D

Love me some highlander! Great to see a show such as this! Really dig what you are all doing with the new channels and new off-stream shows, both here and on the other channels!

I remember Alex on I believe a North 100 was the first person to put in plain English how tempo and midrange feel to play, like you’re dying right up until your opponent is actually dead. Aggro either I can sprint you down or I can’t and if you start to stabilize either I have the reach or I don’t, all of which is usually pretty clear to the aggro player. On control once I get out in front of it, maybe one or two 2-for-1s provided I’m not on death’s door I’m pretty much in the clear. Baring a colossal fuck on my part or a major outplay by my opponent it’s just a mopping up exercise. For midrange though, my margins are so slim on both sides It’s a major struggle to ever get clear and take over the game or impose my plan on my opponent. Having potential game against everyone opens the door for everyone to have game against me right up till the end.

When Ben said "KZfaq has a 2x Speed option" hahahaha, the man looked through my screen and backhanded my soul!

“Take your time, KZfaq has a 2x speed button” Lmaooooooo

Love it! Please keep these coming, so great

so excited for more regular canadian highlander content!!

I started playing magic in Khans block. Fauna Shaman was... well, not quite hot off the press, but recent enough to where a friend at school had one and played it. I can confirm my first reaction to seeing Survival in some cube video was "hey, it's Fauna Shaman but not a creature!" Good times.

Some serious gentlemen's Magic going down here, good show lads

Really enjoying the discussions that happen when you share information mid-game that you wouldn't do in a more "serious" setting, super interesting to get that kind of insight into your thought processes! :)

Love it!! So good, well played each of you

Great content, I am really looking forward to the next episode

Such a great program, makes me want to get my friends into this format. Thanks y’all

OOOH! BIG HYPE! I've missed some North 100 that isn't set reviews. I love those too, but, boy howdy, I want more Canlander please.

This was great, just decided to look up Canadian Highlander today, and this looks pretty fun to build for

Amazing game play! Congrats to both players. Keep those games comming

Very good first episode and I appreciate the discussion on lines of play

Excellent showmanship guys. I love that this is a showcase of the decks, where we get to see the thought processes, and discussions of lines not taken. Could I put in a request to see one of Wheeler's medium red decks some time in the series.

Very excited for this series going forward! Can't wait for more N100 content!

Loved this episode and I'm super hyped for the series! Will probably be watching each episode multiple time. My one recommendation would be to align the dagger (knife/sword thing) in the N100 logo with the split in the cameras during the in-between games overlay. I'm by no means a graphic design expert though so I defer to the magicians at LRR but seems like it would work.

Been so stoked and waiting for this since it was teased on Friday!

Great content as always. Excited to see more canlander

Hell yeah! Been waitin' for this!

Absolutely loving this content, i’m not someone who’s into competitive/tournament magic or has ever played Canadian highlander but it’s very fun to watch you two play your favorite(?) format!

Finally! I've been so hype for this

So happy to have more Canlander content coming out!

Much love for y'all from North Carolina!

Always hyped for more highlander content!

Love that you used the North 100 title music 👍

This is an excellent series already

Great start to the series! Like many others have said the discussions around the plays are my favorite part. New card choices for the deck since the pandemic would be fun to add to the deck intro to help crystalize the gameplan and matchup considerations.

Hell yeah, been looking forward to this

This is a great series can't wait to see more! For future videos, would you consider doing a brief prerecorded section where you discuss your deck and show card art for specific cards / key concepts.

Love this being a series! Reminds me of the grand ol' days of the seasonal Highlander tournaments that were on FNPF, but I love that in this format there's much more focus on clarity and engaging highlander play because there isn't the rush of being live during a late time slot, and of course it keeps FNPF slots open, when Highlander isn't everyone's cup of tea and dedicating at least one week/month to those tournaments could be a lot for those who wanted to see more different kinds of magic played.

This show is appointment viewing

HELL YEAH POWERFUL MAGIC. Super here for this series, loving it!!

This is perfect. More of all of this forever plz

Canlander is the thing that keeps me playing Magic, and you guys introduced me to it. All of this content, plz

this was a blast. Can't wait for more.

I’ve never seen Canadian Highlander before, barely even heard of it actually. But I’m really liking it and glad you all started this series!

Love the games! So happy for the new series

Canlander is my favorite magic content, so I'm stoked for this series!

I'm so F'*ing happy for this! Please more moremoremoremore thank you!

exactly the type of content i want to see. cheers!

I’m concussed so avoid video, happy to say I’ve watched serge and wheeler play so much canlander I followed along with the entire episode without video… descriptive commentary + the slow hum of grunts, tongue clicks, card flicks, har-umphs, and laughs tells me all I need to know about the match

Awesome new series! I’ve been very hyped for it since it was announced. Always Love the chemistry you two have, but would be interested in seeing the old hosts of n100 as guests (Liam, jer, alex) if they aren’t too busy. Thank you for making more content about this awesome format, and being all around great people :)

Game two was a nail biter. Excellent work, Serge and Wheeler.

Its here! This is the MTG content I need in my life

So hyped for this series! Paper canlander is the most enjoyable magic to both watch and play.

Excited for this series!

Great games, guys! I’d love to see my favorite deck pop up in one of these episodes-good old Medium Red (or dare I suggest it, Big Red). Play on!

Love it. Can’t wait for more.

I loved this, good magic while also learning something new.

very excited about these videos!

YES loving this. Please more!

Love this… please more of this!!!

Hello Algorithm, it's great to be here (and this show SLAPS)

Canlander is the best most fun MTG in existence

Finally seeing Pattern Rector in action! In which may or may not see said cards actually be played!

Need me some more of these Mortal Kombat-ass VS screen poses for these thumbnails.

so much HYPE!

It's both of their forever decks ! For the first episode!! Flavor Win !!!

Off the bat, I love these games, always a good time with my magic families here

To answer Serge's question at the end, I would love to see a match-up between two blue midrange decks like jeskai and bug and the two of you going through the benefits of the other colors in that match-up and against the meta at large. Also some insights on how blue midrange is changing relative to back in the lightning angel era would be sweet.

God I love Canadian Highlander content, especially with Benjamin & Serge.

Haven't ever gotten to play canlander but I always enjoy watching it. Magic the gathering sure is a great game! Looking forward to more of this series!

Yes. I need this. THIS IS AMAZING.

This looks super hype!

I am so excited for these videos

More canlander content! Definitely excited to see more.

This is just delightful
