[Vendetta] Lightning Rush (Kennen Signature Spell)

Lightning Rush (1)

Signature Spell - Kennen

Look at the top 3 cards of your deck. (?)You may add one of them to hand.(?) Put the rest in your trash.

Flow (3)(P) - (You may play this from your graveyard for its flow cost. Then banish it)

Faefolk + Rengar interaction

Hoping for clarification on what I believe was a misplay.

Opponent uses Faefolk to target my Vilemaw, attempting to move him from Battlefield A to Battlefield B.

I indicate I have no response and am ready to move to resolution.

Opponent responds by ambushing Rengar to that battlefield, then conquering it for the 8th and win.

I believe that once he passes priority to me on the Faefolk ability, that he loses all priorities once I indicate I have no response, therefore giving him no windows to Ambush in Rengar.

Is this true?

First ever painted binder for my riftbound cards! Of course it will be of Vex and Sett

Artwork and painted by me!

Reddit seems to desaturate it quite a bit.

Your favorite deck

Hey everyone. New to Riftbound (although not new to tcg in general) I’m wondering what kind of deck I would like.
I know there are lots of posts asking for specific recommendations but I’d love to read what’s your favorite deck and why?
I’m sure it will help me and many others decide on a legend / strategy.
Very hyped by the game!

Thanks :)

Vendetta Body/Calm legend

Curious if we are expecting all color combinations to get new legends in the Vendetta release ? Hoping to get a new green/orange legend and figured I’d ask. Thanks !

Question about Kha'Zix - Mutating Horror

Last week on a Nexus Night my opponent ambushed with his Kha'Zix - Mutating Horror. His attack trigger went onto the chain, since I only had one unit on the battlefield.

I then reacted to the attack trigger with a Defiant Dance to reduce Kha'Zix might to 2 before his attack trigger resolves und then continuted to react with a Gust, to send Kha back to hand.

My opponent then said that this is not possible, since Kha'Zix gets the pump from his ability immediatly when the attack trigger is put onto the chain. So after my Defiant Dance resolves, Kha'Zix is at 4 and therefore not a legal target for Gust.

I then asked the judge about this and he agreed with my opponent.

But still I do not understand this ruling. Can someone maybe explain the ruling to me? Or were they both wrong?

Deck recommendations

Hey, I'm looking to get into riftbound and was wondering what deck I should start with to get into the game. I'm and ex Legends of Runeterra player, and most enjoy decks which are both somewhat aggressive and combo-orintated (Think samira or nightfall from LoR) and involves playing lots of cards in a turn. I would be happy to start on a more complex deck (I have a lot of experience in card games and enjoy decks with long, complicated turns) but would rather it not be super expensive to buy all the cards. Appreciate any suggestions!

Final predictions:

For vendetta my final prediction is:

Crystal rose:

Swain

Akshan

Riven

Seraphine

Janna

(Ahri already shown)

Last champ: xerath or amumu, to fit the shurima rivalry trio

Paired ON:

Morgana kayle

Swain irelia

Jayce will be broken. 😁

I believe all the kennen shenanigans will lead to him having a paired ON or unit but it wouldn't make the most sense for him to be the legend considering we already have akali zed and shen paired and jayce mel and ambessa paired.

Excited to see the previews tomorrow night!

It goes without saying Mel is broken in any game she's in.

My collection so far

I started in March and I might have taken it a little bit too far...

Not pictured are x17 misc ONs w/ PSA right now and x15 Irelia Fervent normal art (my favorite Riftbound card) 🙈

Is there a maximum amount of energy

Say I already have 12 runes ready and I conquer. If I activate rek sai's legend ability and reveal this card do I go up to 14 or does it cap at 12

Is 3x Copies of the Vex Champion deck worth it for a new player?

Brand new player and I wanted to start playing at locals with a semi-competitive deck. I don’t have access to singles but I was able to find multiple Vex champion decks around my area at MSRP. In other games I know the amount of decks bought for the full playsets changes so is three enough for a decent deck?

Riftbound World Box – missing Teemo cards, no solution after 7+ months

I bought the Riftbound World Box over half a year ago and the Teemo Promo card was missing.

I’ve been in contact with support ever since. Every month I’m told “next month you’ll get them,” but nothing ever arrives. At one point I was told I’d get a refund, but that also never happened. PayPal dispute is no longer possible due to time limits.

Still no cards, no refund, no real solution. What else can I even do at this point?

Taiwan's distributor plans to ban non-Traditional Chinese cards in official tournaments. Has anyone experienced this in other regions?

Taiwan's Riftbound pre-order has finally been announced, which should have been great news. However, I was shocked to learn something from local game stores.

According to Taiwan's official distributor, once official tournaments begin, only the Traditional Chinese version distributed by them will be legal for official play. Any products in other languages (such as English) will not be allowed in official events, even if they are genuine Riftbound products. But they are also selling English version products. (WTH???)

This was incredibly disappointing to hear.

One of the biggest reasons I supported Riftbound from the beginning—even before the Traditional Chinese version was announced—was Riot's apparent support for mixed-language play. I loved the idea that players could use authentic cards regardless of the language, and that openness was one of the game's biggest strengths in my eyes.

Now it feels like Taiwan's distributor has completely gone against that philosophy.

I'm wondering if anyone else has experienced something similar in your region.

  • Have any other countries had local distributors impose language restrictions like this?
  • What would you recommend Taiwanese players do in this situation?
  • Is there any official channel where we can raise this concern with Riot?
  • Does Riot have the authority to step in if a regional distributor enforces this kind of policy?

I'd really appreciate hearing your experiences or advice. Thanks!

Is Soraka - Wanderer in Azir troll?

I’m a complete noob when it comes to building decks in any game. Things sounds good or cool in my head but usually don’t translate to actually being effective in the game due to not understanding card costs, game tempo, and just general game fundamentals from a deck building perspective. I’m a net decker through and through. With that said, could soraka be good in azir? Slap a BF sword on her and surround her with a couple soldiers/recruits that are undying while soraka survives. Not only would azir be creating tokens every turn but now we are ready to send in soldiers and recruits from the previous turns. Is it a win more idea or could it actually be helpful?

I mention the deckbuilding part because if this idea is troll I’d like to understand why.

Sett 4-0 win a box

Opponents were g1 ezreal, G2 xp yi, G3 Pg yi, G4 Diana

Key points of play equal trades on your turn are good value if you can also conquer to reset passive and rebuff, g1 cithria with hirana is insane draw value. If going second I like valley with cithria swapped with nidalees (rest of side depends on match up) for the play ambush as if nidalees survives you draw which means if she dies but you use sett legend to save her you still draw and star spring is brilliant if you can sett up the sett kill wall ( faefolk bouncing). Playing into ez is a battle of value if it's a bounce variant if he's too busy trying to stop you scoring with sticky units he can't mill your hand without losing. Xp yi just play with value in mind and as with any green bait out the defies, oh yi is a hard match up but Ashe is a brilliant swap with sabo to eliminate key reactions so you can establish board control. Diana is a hard match up but if you can keep her tapping out of runes with things like star cross being repulsed and get the hwei exposed there's little she can do to stop the challenge.
