It took me way too long to realize that the thumbnail with the keys is because the keys untap the time vault, not that Wheeler used his infinite turns to steal the keys to my house and car
Fun fact: Comet doesn't target with his abilities because you'd have to target something when you activate his ability, but because you can't know which effect you'll get when activating it, all of them simply don't target.
@@kevinwestermann1001They could’ve but that ability is already long enough and trying to shoehorn in a reflexive trigger would have made it even more awkward.
Hi, North 100 showdown stats guy here again. Wheeler let Nelson win the die roll today, bringing Nelson's die roll rating up to 29% and dropping Wheeler's rating back to 69%. [OUTCOME SPOILERS] Wheeler won the match on the draw, bringing his win% on the draw to 57% and his overall win% to 71%. Nelson still has yet to win a match on the play, leaving his overall win% at 14% (Edited for spelling)
@34:00, Nelson forgets about key text on Questing Beast (which is fair, the card is THE meme for too many words). Questing beast has ability that combat damage that would be dealt by creatures you control can't be prevented. So questing beast would actually have been a great answer to the One Ring trigger. Kind of surprised Wheeler didn't remind him then or after the game.
I say this all the time. The card doesn't have too many words. It just has abilities that often are either irrelevant or exactly counter specific situations. Like people constantly seem to think it has abilities that generate card advantage or protect itself when it has neither.
Ooooh I thought TOR just stopped attacks as a whole, not prevented damage. But looking it up, it sure does just literally "prevent damage". Very interesting!
I actually think Nelson might have just thought Comet was a better play - it's not like QB would have been lethal and Comet is a lot harder to deal with so might be more likely to kill over 2 turns through some amount of interaction. I could be wrong but I'd be surprised if he didn't know the interaction because QB and Stomp specifically are so often mentioned as ways to get around the Ring trigger.
I have a Commander deck where I'm actually playing The One Ring and Paradox Haze, and Wheeler's offhand joke made me realize I should actually watch out for that. Thanks, guys!
Eomer yells “To the king!!” before rallying to Theoden’s aid!! Those who played the LOTR Trivial Pursuit game will remember this particular phrase as being one of the more difficult questions to answers.
I agree with Wheeler's take on Time Vault: it serves a purpose in the format, but it also just kinda shits out wins with so little effort that it's really tilting. Card should be 11 points.
26:25 I'm not an expert but I'd have kept the brainstorm/fetch on top, so next turn I could cast brainstorm, trigger Aragorn to dig 1 more card deep (scry 2 but I know one of them), then resolve brainstorm to dig 3 more cards and have the fetch if I don't find an answer. Anyway, great content as always, love the "best-of as many as we can fit in an hour" games
@@fairygoodmuller8065 that’s probably the best I go with mana drain because mana drain is one of my favorite cards. But forth is probably the correct pick
I just love the initiative. This is mostly due to the fact that Vengeful Hunter is still legal in pauper and it's a great wincon for BG Gardens (my favorite deck of all time) I also look forward to more K-holes from Wheeler
I almost wonder if it's worth running stuff like Tamiyo's safekeeping/blacksmith's skill in time vault as interaction against boseiju or I guess Encroach for the meme surely a thoughtseize specifically for non basic lands is playable in canlander :P
Seems like Dragon Shields, either some yet unreleased Classic Art variant, or a custom made one. The art looks like a Jace & Vraska version of "The Kiss" by Klimt, which appeared on Fine Art Collection sleeves in its original form.

They look like Fine Art "The Kiss" by Klimt sleeves, but maybe some altered version. I wanna say it's Jace / Vraska on those instead the original couple? Might be some yet unreleased Dragon Shields painting variant or a custom made one.

Truly the jangling-keys-in-our-faces stream
he hasn't stolen them . . . yet
ah yes the one key ring

That's what the somewhat new reflexive targetting is for. They could have made it work like that.

Wheeler the GOAT
Oh boy! Just in time for a new episode of Canadian: It’s a Showdown Throwing Yep!
My favorite show, better than that crappy North 100 Showdown series, clearly a knockoff.
I swords to plowshares your Aragorn.
Aragorn, no. We JUST finished reforging that sword...

My favorite part of the episode is how Wheeler nailed the intro, Serge could never
wow dude spoiler alert
So it's not that Wheeler always wins the die roll but that Serge always loses.

Today in "words I never thought I'd hear watching MtG content", "I'm going to Otawara my own One Ring".
"Questing Beast is bad, I'm gonna Comet instead"
Words you didn't think you'd hear.
As a fairly new player i find watching this show very useful in learning the older cards ecen if i could never keep up with this level of play
I have no idea how Urza's Saga has lived this long without getting pointed.
I agree with Wheeler's take on Time Vault: it serves a purpose in the format, but it also just kinda shits out wins with so little effort that it's really tilting. Card should be 11 points.
Nah 10 points is fine. Let the card be in the format, just give it virtually no help.
OMG Get The Prof on here! He constantly talks about how much he loves LRR yet I've never seen him on here in any capacity.
IIRC he attended a couple of PPRs in the past but that was a while ago now. He also appeared in an episode of Friday Nights.
He’s definitely been in LRR stuff (although I don’t know if any of it has been since Covid), he just hasn’t been in any Canlander-related content
@@davidwhite769 He hasn’t on LRR, but Wheeler and Serge did play CanLander on Shuffle up and Play, along with Prof and Pascal Maynard!
Have you noticed Nelson and the Professor never appear on screen together?
@@mattfenner7824 Yeah, that's what they were referencing in this video
This episode brought to you by Dave's Spokesman
I really felt Nelly's gulp on Mind Twist.
God that Mind Twist was the most brutal thing I think I've ever seen.
Easily as brutal as the Stifle, Stifle, Concede from the Judge's Tower FNPF.
Excellent, as always. Thank you.
Love me a North 100 showdown!
If you Fable me I swear to -- [gets fabled]

Wheeler losing the die roll confirming that it's the seat, not the player
pretty sure Dave's spokesman did that intro XD
Good video to understand why Time Vault is banned in Commander
Wait! They actually roll before the game? I thought they just decided Wheeler goes first every time.
man when the 4 color omnitiative players all realize the correct point spread is spellseeker timewalk plus a 1 point card it will be over lol
Spellseeker, time walk, forth eorlingas!
@@fairygoodmuller8065 that’s probably the best I go with mana drain because mana drain is one of my favorite cards. But forth is probably the correct pick
34:00 why is questing beast bad here? It gets around the ring and can start doing damage.
Turn 5 (or 6) Nelson blew up your artifact token, the turn after you casted the ring and you had protection. 17:48
Yeah wheeler had protection but his permanents didn’t. The one ring isn’t quite that busted lol
Is this the first time wheeler has been on the right side?
Is it really that the left side of the table just always goes first? 🤔
Wheeler losing the die roll feels like a sign of the end time.
I just love the initiative. This is mostly due to the fact that Vengeful Hunter is still legal in pauper and it's a great wincon for BG Gardens (my favorite deck of all time)
I also look forward to more K-holes from Wheeler
Just let the poor man concede
9:56 HE SAID THE LINE!!!!!
Could you guys list the point values for each of the cards? 😊
Thanks!
Edit: I mean in the video, when they pop up
Wheeler losing the die roll? Incredible!
Biggest upset in MTG history
He sat at the wrong side of the table.
Any chance this goes to weekly?? I love these boys playing some canlander. If not I completely understand. I just get antsy having to wait two weeks.
Graham's ability to Dave is really unmatched, clearly, hahah.
9:27 its turn 5 and TV player has 18 life, theyre never losing this (will respond if im wrong lol)
I almost wonder if it's worth running stuff like Tamiyo's safekeeping/blacksmith's skill in time vault as interaction against boseiju
or I guess Encroach for the meme
surely a thoughtseize specifically for non basic lands is playable in canlander :P
Woop woop more canadian highlander content ❤
I love Canadian Nope
nelson's been here the whole time
BuT hOw Do YoU wIn WiTh InFiNiTe TuRnS?
Is it Omnath + Initiative, or Omniscience + Initiative?
4c Omnath + initiative
I also thought Omniscience at first lol
I love my lunch time North 💯 Episodes.
I saw a shiny thing and heard a jingle so I clicked. Now I don't know what's going on
Perfect timing!
I can see the braincell bouncing between players. Great games!
I love these shows, but I don't think I could ever play this well! LOL
I gotta know where I can get Nelly's sleeves! I need them.
Awesome games yall!
Seems like Dragon Shields, either some yet unreleased Classic Art variant, or a custom made one. The art looks like a Jace & Vraska version of "The Kiss" by Klimt, which appeared on Fine Art Collection sleeves in its original form.
The art is actually owned by their friend, Michelle Rapp aka KilnFiendPotter, so might be a custom made DS with that art.
What sleeves is Nelly using??

Little late to the part but ease on down the road is probably best known from the wiz soundtrack...
I want to see wheeler on game knights
I think we all want that
I think Nelson Pondered correctly.
So do we have a new pin or shirt for this intro designed yet?
There's no 2 card combo i hate more than vault+key 😂
Thassa's Oracle + Demonic Consultation?
@@kevinwestermann1001 I don't play EDH, so I don't care about that lol
Obligatory algorithmic contribution

I do hate it Nelson, Thanks for asking
That 4 mana space Dog Planeswalker
makes me want to stop playing MTG =( left the video twice
Does Eomer deal damage despite the ring?
Why wouldn’t it? It targeted a creature not wheeler (unless I’m misunderstanding protection that should be fine)
@@jackvogel701 oh, yes, you are right! Thank you!
Where islands?
Ben I have that shirt as my mouse pad

Hi Nelly. I hate it.
