**New Mechanics **
XP: You can gain and spend XP for interesting effects (As displayed with Voidreaver and Master Yi below)

 

 

 

 

 

 

Hunt: Hunt is a new mechanic that helps you build up the XP you’ll use to enhance your cards or spend for splashy effects. When a unit with Hunt conquers or holds a battlefield, you’ll gain the amount of XP on the card.

 

 

 

 

Ambush: In League of Legends, one of the core skills of a jungler is the ability to attack from concealment at just the right moment. In Riftbound, the new Ambush mechanic lets you do that too. Specifically, Ambush lets you play a unit as a Reaction to a battlefield where you have units. Like Inferna!

What is Riftbound?

Riftbound is a collectable trading card game featuring a vast array of characters and locales from League of Legends. Choose a Legend and Chosen Champion card for your deck and battle it out between 2 to 4 players in various game modes! The most important card in your deck is your champion legend. This is the card you build your deck around—it determines your options for the chosen champion who starts faceup on the board and who you’ll send to fight for you, and it defines the domains (colors) of your deck’s cards.

Your legend and your chosen champion define your strategy. Maybe your plan is quick strikes, maybe it’s to build up an unstoppable huge army, or maybe it’s to use one incredibly powerful and mobile fighter. You’ll have additional units (and other champion units) to send to fight, spells to help them win, and even gear to empower your team.

Tournaments starting at 5:30pm

Win a Match Win a Pack, Riftbound Promos

Join us weekly for some fun Riftbound action.

The domains are:

  • Fury (Red) –
    • Fury is about aggression, passion, and the thrill of conquering.
    • Fury decks often use damage-based removal, Accelerate (and other ways to enter ready), and rewards for conquering to achieve victory.
    • Generally, Fury cards have a harder time drawing lots of cards or killing units directly, especially units that stay out of combat in their base.
    • Examples of Fury from popular fiction are Conan the Barbarian, Blade, and Anakin Skywalker.
  • Calm (Green) –
    • Calm is about balance, meditation, and the peace of holding.
    • Calm decks often use defensive tricks, moving enemies, and negating interaction (like counterspells and stuns) to defend their holds and achieve victory.
    • Generally, Calm cards have a harder time being very aggressive or interacting without using their units.
    • Examples of Calm from popular fiction are Gandalf, Baloo, and Obi Wan Kenobi.
  • Mind (Blue) –
    • Mind is about innovation, outsmarting opponents, and the benefits of intelligence and curiosity.
    • Mind decks often use long-term planning, shrinking tricks, card draw, hidden and gear synergy to gain an advantage and achieve victory.
    • Generally, Mind cards have a harder time with moving units or having efficient units.
    • Examples of Mind from popular fiction are Sherlock Holmes, Curious George, and Yoda.
  • Body (Orange) –
    • Body is about physical superiority, agility, and connection to the wilds.
    • Body decks often ramp their resources, play efficient and high impact units, and dominate combats to achieve victory.
    • Generally, Body cards have a harder time with finding efficient card draw or noncombat spells.
    • Examples of Body from popular fiction are The Terminator, Juggernaut, and Chewbacca.
  • Chaos (Purple) –
    • Chaos is about unpredictability, rebellion, and trickiness.
    • Chaos decks often manipulate position and the trash, use hidden tricks, and filter toward the right cards to achieve victory.
    • Generally, Chaos cards have a harder time permanently eliminating a threat or giving permanent advantages to its units.
    • Examples of Chaos from popular fiction are V (for Vendetta), Spiderman, and Han Solo.
  • Order (Yellow) –
    • Order is about unity, community, and sacrifice for the greater good.
    • Order decks often generate many small units, gain effects on unit death, and kill units directly to achieve victory.
    • Generally, Order cards have a harder time dealing with smaller units and moving units.
    • Examples of Order from popular fiction are Superman, Cobra Commander, and Leia Organa.

One way to start building a deck is to start with a domain you think fits your playstyle (or just style, generally) and search for cool cards you might want to fit into a deck.
