Ok, so I got excited earlier and posted my biggest pull already. See here- https://www.reddit.com/r/Riftbound/s/aA9uXcKm8P

But I did want to post my full pulls as well, so here we are.

I just got into Riftbound, and TCGs in general, last week when I opened my first box and ripped my first pack. It was an Unleashed box my local store had. I got VERY excited (and apparently lucky) that my first box had a OVN in it! You can see those pulls here if interested- https://www.reddit.com/r/Riftbound/s/WMgdgT4TnE

Well, needless to say I got hooked and bought a couple Vendetta Booster boxes I found at Best Buy. I decided I would rip one today and start my Vendetta collection this weekend. And my luck from last week carried on! My second box in, and I got a Jayce OVN Signature card!!!!!

Anyways, flipping through people’s pulls on this sub is what got me into Riftbound. As someone that’s been playing League (and all its iterations) since 29-4, I thought the cards looked cool. And now I can contribute with my own pull posts 😁

Guys!!!! I got my first signature card!!!

So I just started collecting TCGs last week as a huge LoL fan. Did my first box last weekend and pulled an OVN. Link on those pulls here-

this weekend (today) I was going to open up my second box ever and I was going to rip this whole box then post a pulls post here. But I just now pulled a signature Jayce! I got so excited! Hands literally shaking haha Had to share my excitement right away!!!

Now, I a soooo new to TCG collecting. So I need some help. I have a binder for my unleashed collection and now bought one for my Vendetta collection. However I don’t want to put the card in the binder for two reasons (unless it’s very recommended by you guys to protect it??!)

1- It looks so good!!!!! I can’t possibly lock it up in a binder can I?
2- I feel there has to be a better way to protect it?

I currently have it upside down in a penny sleeve and right side up in a top loader (Chat GPT told me to do that way. Tell me if I fkd up).

Questions:

1. Is it bad to store a loose top loader in the back of the binder to protect from damage/humidity? (I live in South Florida. Humid af).
2. Is it worth getting graded so I can somehow display it safely and preserve the card?
3. If so- who do I get it graded by? I hear a lot of people throw out PSA and Becket. Why one over the other?

Sorry if these are dumb questions. But this is such a cool card. I’m so excited for it, but also new to TCG and want to know best practices based on your experiences.

Thanks for reading! If I missed anything/ anyone had advice let me know!

I will post my full pull post later :)

I am not sure how this sub entered my feed. But I have been a League player since 2014 (Diana/WW Jng main). I saw a post here and thought those cards have sone cool art.

Never been much in collecting, but the cards are easy to store and being a big fan of LoL, I thought it may be fun to pick up.

Anyways, here is the first box or even card I’ve ever bought. Will be opening them tonight! I hear that Diana is the chase card in this set, so I figured it was a good set for me to start with 😁

(Also, didnt realize how hard it was to find these, went to 4 stores, and at the 4th one I found this box.)
