Channel 3 sounds great without any pedals and I have a good tone set for that channel. Channel 2 has been a challenge for me. I tried 4 OD pedals so far and here's my opinion on the pedals I used:

Precision Drive - Too aggressive for me... Works with other amps better
Abominable Hell Mouth - Less aggressive than the Precision Drive but seems to work better with the TC 100 than the PD
Ryra the Klone - Didn't seem to work for the amp. Too clean if I can describe it that way.
Finch Electronics Cotton Candy V2 - This pedal sounded the best with the amp!

For the people who owned a TC-100, what was your favorite OD for channel 2?
 
I still have one for now, and it can vary a lot, but I’ve used a ts9, sd1, and got a McRae Timmy to try on it and they all seem to work for different flavors. I tend to live on channel 2 the most.
 
It is a great channel. For pedals, it depends on what you are going for. I have enjoyed the sounds on mine with these.

Try the MXR M77... Custom Badass Modified OD

It's a less agressive sounding Precsision Drive IMO, but with better control over the "tightness" with the 100 Hz cut knob, and the Mid BUMP switch.
 
I just ordered a Pro Tone Shushi + pedal today. Let's see how that works. I mostly play thrash metal but I've been on an 80's kick lately so I'm curious about this pedal since its new.
