Grixis Reanimator vs RUG Midrange || North 100 Showdown

[@augmentingpath1522]

Sad to see Serge get relegated from the league, but I guess it was inevitable. I hope he does well in the minors and makes his way back up soon!

[@zaneghiskhan]

Wait what? Context please!

[@stealthgrrr]

​@@zaneghiskhan Serge didn't score enough points over the season and now he needs to do some soul-searching, maybe recruit better decks

[@gkiyo]

​@@zaneghiskhan in most football leagues around the world, typically the worst performing few teams are demoted ("relegated") to a lower league at the end of the season, while the best performing teams from that league are promoted up to take their place. OP was just making a joke that serge's rather poor win/loss record over the last few videos resulted in him being relegated. AFAIK, 100% a joke, your regularly scheduled serge will soon return, nothing to worry about.

[@heartofgoldfish]

I heard he got red-carded for Stifling

[@OtisJCW]

​@@heartofgoldfish did he answer correctly when asked if it was in his deck? Because of not that ought to be a military execution.

[@PhoenixWrong]

Wheeler's PTSD from the double stifle a while back continues to be the best bit on North 100 Showdown. Please never stop being amazing.

[@Durtaz]

An iconic play pattern for sure

[@NStripleseven]

as one does

[@barneymiller3689]

My favourite part about this format is that you play with power 9 but you get to care about half the rares in standard

[@connorh4307]

Thank you very much for showcasing the reanimator list!! Means a lot to me :)

[@Durtaz]

THE Connor H?! Congrats on the wins!

[@sandmanlives3]

That deck is sweet. Glad to see it. Congrats on the win.

[@deanthurston2791]

Getting big names like Nelson on the show now? Great to see!

[@umhigussreal]

Quick! Drop everything and watch the new episode of North 100 showdown!

[@8BitCyberWarrior]

Yeah that's about right

[@wikisome]

Now that I've watched this episode, I can't wait for the Nelson/Serge showdown.

[@Durtaz]

Lord knows I love wheeler, but I would click on that video with unseen speed.

[@theclassykarp3786]

that intro was so smooth, someone get these lads medals

[@plundypops]

Nelson is really representing the luck I have playing Gladiator in these first two games.

[@sandmanlives3]

Excellent, as always. Thank you. I’m so glad that after speaking about Nelson joining in the last showdown comments, I feel like I have spoken this into existence. I’m so glad to have Nelson on the show. Lands and game loses and all, I was behind you all the way. Glad you got there in game three. 😁

[@adriannathaniel3894]

This is the only place I see this format I’m typically a cedh player but this format is so much fun to watch

[@nicholashaywood7949]

As much as I do enjoy Friday Night Paper fight. I have been supremely enjoying all this other magic content like this and EDSC. Great content and I look forward to more good stuff this year!

[@jgmweston]

Always happy to see Nelson play Highlander!

[@christopherellis409]

Excuse my American French, but- BOUT. FUCKING. TIME. Thanks you for having Nelly, it’s great for him to be here.

[@thomasleffers5304]

This is awesome! Can't wait to see who else will make an appearance!

[@veronicavanvoorst]

Interesting line with the Mystical Tutor at 18:20, I checked the list and Nelson does have Expressive Iteration. I feel I'd maybe grab that over the Chart a Course? Digs deeper, you're up a card, and doesn't have the Brainstorm problem as mentioned.

[@nelsonsalahub]

Yeah that’s fair. I didn’t consider that and didn’t want to spend extra time searching but I think your call is correct

[@veronicavanvoorst]

@@nelsonsalahub Thanks for the video! It was very entertaining. Looking forward to seeing you on more of these.

[@mostlikelymaybe]

Forest seems pretty powerful. Nelson did a lot better when he drew them.

[@sleepyracoon4811]

Thanks for the matches, it was great to watch them ! Can't wait for more guests to be on the show. Wheeler might be the premiere land pilot of the format but Nelly is the premiere trombone player of North 100 !

[@wikisome]

A Nelson!!! I'm excited.

[@nicholasfalasco8539]

Wonderful, just wonderful. I mean, the games were totally one-sided! But who gives a damn. Nelly and Wheeler goofing around, demonstrating "the Gathering" of magic is what we all need.

[@janmelantu7490]

Love seeing “new” people on this Canlander Throwdown. More Nelson, please, and as many guests as you can get

[@chulumpthebigmoneywizard851]

27:45 this is the exact melody I think of whenever I hear “tropical island” as well

[@Circular_Square]

Nelly and Wheeler have such good chemistry, and it's different enough from Wheeler and Surge's chemistry that it doesn't feel same-y.

[@SlipknotSAW40]

I so look forward to new episodes of this show. thanks ya’ll

[@Spotifist]

I appreciate nelly! Must be the best mtg opponent you could get: funny, kind and knowledgeable :-) Thanks for the video!

Nelson with the James Brown and Fela Kuti reference, I love it lol

[@thatperson4625]

Lets go I always like seeing what nelson brings to the table

[@Sugarman96]

While I'm saddened that Serge got sent to the Shadow Realm for his bad streak in North 100 Showdown, Nelly is a welcome addition.

[@spiffinn_music_lists]

Glad to see Nelson!

[@bobthegamingtaco6073]

That was the tradeoff, every time he smokes someone in showdown he gets uninvited from the next podcast episode

Serge is saving up his energy and training to get revenge on the tyrant Wheeler (or so I assume this is how the story goes)

@@snowcookiemedia It's the evil Benjamin wHEELer. D:

[@bobthegamingtaco6073]

Is the audio messed up on this for anyone else? spiking volume levels

[@ajax4709]

10:00 connive wouldnt trigger. thats the first spell

[@mewr11]

I'd be curious to hear the reasoning for using Seasons Past + Mystical Tutor to recur Time Walk, rather than a creature-based loop, like Thassa, Deep Dwelling + Eternal Witness (+ Spellseeker). Is there something in the deck I'm not seeing that makes setting up the spell-based version of the combo easier than working with creatures? Or is it just a case of personal preference or "cards I have vs cards I don't"?

[@nelsonsalahub]

Spellseeker is a lot of points and thassa? I’ll admit I didn’t consider it but might be ok. Would need to check how well it plays with the rest of the deck. Mostly just wanted to show off the seasons past loop as part of the history of the ug walks archetype

[@mewr11]

@@nelsonsalahub yeah it's definitely cool to see a Seasons Past mentioned on camera, I'm not sure I've even thought about the card since... PT Shadows? Maybe? Definitely before I even knew that Highlander existed.

So, in the last game, why didn't Wheeler just hold up the Fury for interaction during Nelly's turn? Just flash it in to blank the MnB uptick

[@grifffourn8200]

I love Showdown, but one thing I think could make it better is if we could get information on cards in hand. Maybe in the overlay, the card viewer gets moved to over the logo, and doesn't stick around for too long. Then under each player it lists cards in hand. I'm sure the logistics would be difficult, maybe use the draft cams to record the information, but don't actually use the footage? I'm not a producer, so I don't know how those logistics could be worked out, but as a viewer knowing cards in hand would be nice.
