* CoolAndUnusualPunishment: In "The Meal", Ben's become creepily hyper-competitive at ''Magic'' [[spoiler:thanks to the Simic Slaw he ate]] but also very unpleasant to play against. Adam, Cameron and Kathleen deduce that this behavior is being sustained by his opponents' salt -- i.e. the despair of crushing defeats -- and they reverse it by tilting ''him'' out by deliberately playing awfully. Cameron, in particular, does this by playing Mountains non-stop until he has enough to cast [[StarterEquipment Shivan Dragon]], as opposed to his normally complex playstyle.

''Friday Nights'' premiered in 2012, and over eight seasons viewed the growing and changing LRR crew play with each other, comment on the current state of ''Magic'', and get into misadventures around their Local Game Store. From September 2013 to May 2014 there was also a spinoff within the spinoff called ''Hero's Path'', which focused on Kathleen trying to beat the Hero's Path event during ''Theros'' block. In 2019 ''Wizards'' ended their sponsorship, but LRR retained ownership of the series and planned on crowdfunding further episodes the following year. But of course...
* AscendedExtra: Several people, like Ian and Ben, started off as associates and behind the scenes assistants of the crew before making the jump to regular cast members.
* EvolvingCredits: Unlike ''Friday Nights'', which has pretty well-defined seasons and opening titles alongside it, the opening for ''[=cH=]'' will update whenever a character officially joins or leaves the crew, even within the season (and seasons are pretty loosely defined anyway).
* InnocuouslyImportantEpisode: "It's Magic!" isn't especially different from any other preceding episode of the sitcom--at the time it would be most notable for having Tim's official exit and Alex's official introduction. But the premise is about the ''WebVideo/LoadingReadyRun'' crew getting back in ''TabletopGame/MagicTheGathering'', and the reception was strong from both fans and ''Creator/WizardsOfTheCoast'' themselves. It soon resulted in both the officially-sponsored ''Friday Nights'' spinoff series, and an increase in ''[=MtG=]'' gameplay and discussion content from LRR that would soon blossom into a key pillar for the company.
