As a fellow token enjoyer, I just want to say how much I appreciate the fact that Cameron apparently upgrades his deck's tokens more often than he upgrades his deck.
@1:16:24 I'm not a Tolkienist but I am a linguist. I am pretty sure Eorlingas is plural itself. Tolkien's influence here is Old English. The word is composed of the root 'Eorl' (Lord of the Éothéod and the first King of Rohan), '-ing' (a patronymic suffix; 'belonging to' which survives in English today in surnames like Browning and Ewing) and it seems to be inflected for plural number with '-as'. Eorlingas is simply the name for the descendants of Eorl, the people of Rohan, the Rohirrim. It's a bit complicated though because reconstructed Proto-Germanic has -ingaz from which -ing is descended and everywhere else Tolkien uses '-ing' the plural is just '-ings' (Dundlendings, Beornings) except for Helmingas, which also refers to the Rohirrim. This might mean that Tolkien was thinking of the Rohirrim as using a more conservative language than other Men that preserved older forms. If this is the case, maybe the influence is older Germanic in which case '-ingas' might actually be singular and the plural might be something like Eorlingōs but I don't think anything like that is attested in his corpus and there's at least one place where he uses Eorlings suggesting Eorling is the singular with variation in the plural. But I'm also just completely speculating here.
It was really nice to see Cameron, Ben, and Alex plaing highlander again. I loved the seasons you guys did where the stakes were icecream at the end. Tracking wins losses. Nice to see a great variety of decks too.
2:25 Game 1 - Serge Naya Blade vs Alex Habanero (GR Aggro) 11:28 Game 2 - Serge Naya Blade vs Ben Graveyard Smakdos (BR Reani-midrange) 24:37 Game 3 - Serge Naya Blade vs Cam Rude Dude Dune Brood (WBRG Aristocrats) 47:28 Game 4 - vs Alex 1:05:00 Game 5 - vs Ben 1:18:31 Game 6 - vs Cam 1:25:09 Game 7 - vs Alex 1:44:15 Game 8 - vs Ben 2:00:07 Game 9 - vs Cam 2:09:50 - Game 10 - vs Ben _(surprise!)_
Serge acknowledges that Thalia isn't a valid target for Seasoned Dungeoneer's triggered ability - only to forget that Seasoned Dungeoneer is a valid target for itself. D:
While I appreciate the joke, I just really actually want a Ragavan that does all the same things except for creating the Treasure for my slightly lower-powered cube, since I am a sucker for Gonti effects. Make it nonlegendary and give it a really funky creature type so people can't say it's strictly worse and we are golden. (It's second on the list of cards I want strictly worse reprints of, just after Recurring Nightmare with a CMC cap on the creature it returns)
I'll have you know that my wife runs 8Land Belcher in Canlander and she wins games! Its an absurdly strange and fragile deck but it combos out pretty fast with the right pieces
Re: the conversation about Ragavan 2 in MH3-- I want them to print a new Kari Zev instead and she's just a perfect counter to Ragavan. One mana, says cards can't be exiled from your library or your opponents can't make treasures or something. Maybe just "you have protection from Monkey creatures." The art can be her making a disapproving face at Ragavan.
Watching this brings to mind the page of Chainsaw Man where a line of people are waiting their turn to jump Denji in the karaoke room. I’m just imagining the LRR crew, decks in hand, standing outside the room in the same way.
Spoilers for those who care, but i wanted to track serge's record against each person . . . . . . vs Alex 2-1 vs Ben 4-0 vs Cameron 2-1 total 8-2 incredible stuff from everyone, great games, and most importantly congrats and happy birthday to serge
Right, so, since it wasn't particularly explained: Eorl is the leader of the ancestors of the people living in the territory of Rohan, which was ceded by the Steward of Gondor some hundreds of years before LotR. Thus, and Eorl-ing is a descendant of Eorl (thus one of the people of Rohan), and Eorlingas is the plural. Ergo, Forth Eorlingas! translates to Off we go, People of Rohan!
26:42 San Jose Sharks actually! Do you want a jersey? I’d be happy to send you all one. (Someone in chat corrected you already but my offer still stands)
obviously wheeler wasn't invited. Serge gets one day where he is the undisputed premier landspilot in the format without wheeler roflstomping him. (i know they love each other and all beef is just a bit calm down)
Omg!!!! Camerons back in a highlander video/stream!!!!!
Cameron fans eating good rn😂
#CamLander 🤩
Cleveland Browns rejoice!
And Alex as well😊
On durdlemaster no-points aristocrats too. Welcome home, king!

"Ooh, new Goblin or Zombie token just dropped!" is a familiar experience. :P

Happy birthday Serge! Thanks for always putting a smile on my face :-)
He do be a haha smiley guy
Alex: [complains about a black card in a Naya deck]
Alex: [immediately plays a blue card in his Gruul deck]
To be fair I can count on one hand the number of times I've seen someone pay retail for a git probe
Now see here
Just because the cards aren't all red and green, doesn't mean it's not red-and-green!
@@jimstewart4929
Also to be fair I one-trick UW control and I probably can count the number of times I've paid retail for a git probe on one hand
And forgot to draw from it

I love the "Welcome Back, Serge" *Get stripmined into the dirt 😂🤣🤣*
everyone seems to forget that seezy deezy (seasoned dungeoneer) has a second line of text. and that it can target itself

NICE EMBERCLEAVE, NERD!
Serge: Bring your best!
Cameron: Um...
Serge: It's ok, just add something new to spice it up.
Cameron: New sleeves it is!
The Urza's Saga Die moments were the best unsaid joke in any LRR thing i've watched. LOL
MORE CANLANDER!!! And I hope Serge had an excellent birthday!
Since Cameron is there, could that particular match be called Camlander? And Yeah, Serge deserves only the best.
Happy Birthday! and glad to have you back! I hope it is great to be here;)
jesus, the one ring battle against Alex was awsome.
Happy birthday, Serge!! Great to see ya at the table again! 😁
Serge acknowledges that Thalia isn't a valid target for Seasoned Dungeoneer's triggered ability - only to forget that Seasoned Dungeoneer is a valid target for itself. D:
Wheeler cant win the die roll if hes not playing! Happy birthday serge!
49:20 They'll obviously give Ragavan's sequel worse stats so it won't be format ruining. It'll be a 1/1 double striker.
While I appreciate the joke, I just really actually want a Ragavan that does all the same things except for creating the Treasure for my slightly lower-powered cube, since I am a sucker for Gonti effects. Make it nonlegendary and give it a really funky creature type so people can't say it's strictly worse and we are golden.
(It's second on the list of cards I want strictly worse reprints of, just after Recurring Nightmare with a CMC cap on the creature it returns)
My joke answer is they will balance it with a downside, like milling cards into your graveyard when it attacks.
this is such a fun way to play, great to have serge. this was a highlight of my week!
Let's hear it for the nicest guy to ever Strip Mine lock you!
Happy birthday radius, Serge!
Nearly three hours of Serge playing CanLander? Happy Birthday to us all 🎉
Oh god, Cameron's first game is what I dream of
I'll have you know that my wife runs 8Land Belcher in Canlander and she wins games! Its an absurdly strange and fragile deck but it combos out pretty fast with the right pieces

Happy Birthday Serge! ❤❤❤❤
I was just thinking about how long it's been since the last Canlander fnpf. Happy late b day and moving day to Serge!
Happy birthmas Serge 🎉
The glorious return !!
Happy birthday to the premier lands pilot of the format
Happy birthday Serge! Here's to another trip around the sun!! 🎉🎉🎉
ITS LIGHTNING HELIX OMG!
1:50:20 Serge’s face when Ben just throws the die meant for Urza’s Saga aside LOL
If, in addition to counting the Shadowspear's bonus, Ben would have used his Cookbook he could have survived.
Happy Birthday Serge! Glad to see you back in the Moon Base.
I nearly choked to death when Alex snapped off the Fury on Ragavan, quality content
What a terrific group! Love it!
Here for the 8-way strip mine lock mirror and hi back I'm dad
I don’t know why the sudden ending always gets me, but I chuckle every time
Congratulations to the Premier Lands pilot of the format! 🎂🥳
Watching this brings to mind the page of Chainsaw Man where a line of people are waiting their turn to jump Denji in the karaoke room. I’m just imagining the LRR crew, decks in hand, standing outside the room in the same way.
In Alex's "goof scoop" does he drop an extra land? I think that Rootbound Crag is in hand and then on the battle field for his next turn. 1:41:00
These decks seem real neat. Keep up the good work
I also would love to spend my birthday playing Magic. :D
The stream was enjoyable!
Alex ripping the fury JUST in-time is priceless
Happy birthday Serge🎉🎉🎉🎉. I love all your videos. You and Ben Wheeler are hilarious
Happy birthday, Serge! Love you, man.
Allow me to weep bitterly in San Jose Sharks.
Welcome back Serge & Happy Birthday!
Jumping serge back into the highlander crew after rl resolving chaos warp.
Cam's first game is all I want from a game of Magic the Gathering.
Great stuff, welcome back Serge!
anyone know the story behind serge's hiatus?
Good to have him back!
Felicitations!
1:03:55 "OH IT'S LIGHTNING HELIX, OH MY GOD!"
There's some cosmic or gravitational force affecting the dice on that side of the table that always wins the dice rolls
Everyone freaking out serve is here I’m just happy Alex is here and happy
Spoilers for those who care, but i wanted to track serge's record against each person

HIGHLANDER CONTENT!!!!!!

I SAW A MAN DIE IN REAL LIFE.
The serval land are so nuts. Surprised surge hasn’t played with them.
Happy birthday Serge🎉
Right, so, since it wasn't particularly explained: Eorl is the leader of the ancestors of the people living in the territory of Rohan, which was ceded by the Steward of Gondor some hundreds of years before LotR. Thus, and Eorl-ing is a descendant of Eorl (thus one of the people of Rohan), and Eorlingas is the plural.
Ergo, Forth Eorlingas! translates to Off we go, People of Rohan!
Challenge: Serge refer to lands by their names
Difficulty: Impossible
HBD Serge!
Happy Birthday ❤
Thank you Serge for reminding me how bad the Blackhawks are doing. Can't even get away from it in MtG streams.
2:40 Reddie Greenie. Already? Too soon for Serge nicknames.
Cam just straight up murdering Serge with 2016 magic!
Happy belated solar rotation for the Yagermeister
Happy belated birthday
Miss Alex so much serge too happy day all :)
I love and Cam in Canlander games. Also I miss more Alex. I guess Serge is also here (happy bday Serge)
I blew chunks to this video!!!
It’s been a very long time since I last saw a DRS actually attack. 😂
it's Lightning Helix!
O my god!
Happy Sergeday, Serge
Cameron’s game!! DAMN!!
I really enjoy North 100 Showdown, but I am sad that it seems to have eliminated Friday Night Paper Fight canlander nights.
One of the main reasons was that serge was away! We will have plenty more candlander nights.
Was Wheeler not available for this one because you were rolling for who goes first on camera?
Loved seeing that first game with Cam, so fun watching aristocratics doing their thing!
Dissapointed that when Serge read the title, nobody said "speaking of touching friends" 😂
everyone knows Planeshift die are Planeswalk > Chaos > Blank.
Amazing game from Cam, love me some aristocrats
He's BAAACK!
Was it explained why serge had to move, or was it too personal?
As far as I know he acquired a house that required renovating it or something and moved to his parents for a while.
Ok, glad it was for good reasons and not sad reasons; thanks!
26:42 San Jose Sharks actually! Do you want a jersey? I’d be happy to send you all one.
(Someone in chat corrected you already but my offer still stands)
The only way for this video to get any better is if Wheeler shows up.
That was a lot of beats.
Serge is back, back
tell a friend
I genuinely thought he was saying Fourth Aerlingus until he mentioned lord of the rings 😅
Tar fire into lightning helix was a thing of beauty. POWERFUHL MAGICK
29:08 more like the sound of a ketchup bottle
I mean, the Maple Leafs is a pretty safe bet
Engagement!
Alex fans eating good today
obviously wheeler wasn't invited. Serge gets one day where he is the undisputed premier landspilot in the format without wheeler roflstomping him.
(i know they love each other and all beef is just a bit calm down)
