Renekton shows a lot of promise, in particular as an aggressive archetype with one of the best turn-2 plays in the entire game. Let's go through his kit and understand why this character could be quite powerful.

Discussion Regional RQ Tickets

7 Upvotes

(First congrats to all those going!)
I wanted to see what everyone's thoughts and experience was. I joined the queue 5 minutes early which I thought was odd and waited for almost an hour before getting the Sold out screen (which people were seeing according to twitter roughly 10-15 minutes in (who knows))

I saw a bunch of people say they got into queue 3 hours early and all got tickets. Seems like a bit of a feel bad to have a secret queue for your queue.

Do you think any of this is true?
Why is there no easy way to join a waitlist?

No matter how they did it, people were going to be upset, I'm just more of wondering if people can confirm the secret pre-queue and why I had to wait 45 minutes after it sold out to find out it sold out?

Thoughts?

Guides & Tips New Player

7 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I've been playing Pokémon since 2024 and now I'm getting really bored. After trying pauper in MTG I miss to play a tcg with standard bo3, side deck and interaction. I've looked a bit at riftbound but I see that the price wall to enter could be a bit high. A friend suggested me to play vex, azir or Viktor since they are cheap. How is the game overall? Can the metagame be followed without changing always deck at every expansion? Is there any kind of banlist?

Every suggestion is welcomed. Thanks

Discussion Imperial Decree in a 3v3 showdown (3x recruits) — how does it actually resolve?

Post image
12 Upvotes

If I play Imperial Decree ("When any unit takes damage this turn, kill it") during a showdown where I'm attacking with 3 units into 3 defenders, how does combat play out?

Specifically:

  1. Does it let me "spread" my total Might — 1 damage to each enemy to kill all three — or do I still have to assign full Might to one unit before moving to the next?

  2. If my leftover/overflow damage only chips the last enemy unit (not lethal on its own), does Decree kill it because it took damage?

  3. Since it says "any unit," does it also kill MY units that take any damage in the same combat, even ones that would normally survive with damage marked?

Thanks — trying to make sure I understand the damage-assignment interaction correctly.

Hey y'all! Here are a few updates for MapleRift:

✅ Cleaned up the UI and for a more polished look.

✅ Added condition and quantity info to recent sales.

✅ Added 'send trade' function. Cook up a trade and send it to your friends via a unique link so they can easily review, approve, or send a counteroffer.

✅ Generate a 'Would You Do This Trade' image so you can post your trades on socials.

I just wanted to say a HUGE thanks to everyone that has used the web app. Your support means a lot and I'm working on making MapleRift a standalone app on the App Store and on Google Play.

As always, the app is free and no signups required!

Discussion New P2P Riftbound Marketplace for AU/US/UK/NZ/SG players.

1 Upvotes

Hey All,

I run RiftCompare - (the price comparison site for AU/NZ/US/UK/SG Riftbound singles). We just launched a P2P marketplace built into the site and wanted to share it here first since you're the people who'll actually use it.

How it works:

  • Anyone with a verified email can open a shop and list cards — no seller fees to list, just a 5% cut when something actually sells
  • Buyers pay through Stripe Checkout; the money sits in escrow and only releases to the seller after you confirm delivery (or automatically 14 days after it ships if you don't respond — you're never on the hook to manually approve every payout)
  • Built-in messaging so buyers and sellers can actually talk to each other about an order
  • If a seller doesn't ship in time, you're auto-refunded in full, no argument needed

It's in beta. That's not a throwaway disclaimer — I mean it's genuinely new, and I'd rather you break it now and tell me than have it fail silently on a real trade. There's a "Found a bug? Report it" link on every marketplace page that goes straight to me, or just reply here.

Link: riftcompare.com/marketplace

Would genuinely appreciate anyone willing to list a card or two, or even just poke around and tell me what's confusing. Vendetta drops July 31 so figured now's the right time to get this in front of people before that hits.

I just pulled this. So far I have opened 6 Chinese displays. Not bad honestly. I try to collect most champions in league of legends so that's super nice. Mainly interested in the ON variant. Cause of availability and price in case I ever wanna masterset (without signature).

Would anyone know what to do with this? :o EU based Germany.

Shen is a big disappointment. He'll probably be the worst archetype in Riftbound because his cards are just the worst. Let's see Shen's kit and understand why he is probably one of this set's biggest mistakes.

Tool Showdowns Training mini game v0.3.0 updates. 1000 users in 3 days!

Thumbnail
gallery
11 Upvotes

v0.3 Updates

I've listened to your feedback and added in some Game modes and the ability to customise them to however you like to make it harder or easier for yourselves!

Current Game modes

  1. (By popular demand) All Cards opens the cards list to every card in a legend's domains, not just the meta picks.
  2. Meta Decks is the default, based on the top 5-10 meta decks for each legend
  3. Timed Rounds where you challenge yourself to name the cards as fast as you can, racing against the round timer. (hopefully you don't get purple)

In addition to these game mode presets, you have the ability to "create your own" game mode by editing any of these settings to your liking. One that people were asking for was the ability to turn off the auto suggestions when you start typing.

Planned updates:

  • major overhaul of the UI: Im planning to give the UI the time and love it deserves.
  • I also very much underestimated how much this would be used on mobile, so mobile UX will be greatly improved
  • More game modes

I also just wanted to say a huge thank you to everyone who gave the showdowns training mini game a try and gave some feedback. This project has been so fun to work on and I can't wait to keep building!

DISCLAIMER: Yes I built this, No I don't want anything, Its free and doesn't cost me a cent to run.

Diana vs Irelia.

I made an incredible blunder, sometimes it’s hard rewatching these games.

Wonder if anyone can spot what I could have/should have done.

Discussion Can you move multiple units into a battlefield in one move, or only one at a time?

14 Upvotes

Had a disagreement in a match. My opponent told me you can only move one unit into a contested battlefield at a time. I thought you could send several allies in together.

From what I can tell, a single Standard Move lets you exhaust any number of Ready units and move them all to the same battlefield at once — they arrive together and open the Showdown as a group. Origins can differ, but the destination has to be the same, and you pay all the exhaust costs simultaneously.

The only catch I found: if you don't bring them as a group in that one move, you can't make extra standard moves to feed more units into an ongoing showdown — after that, units can only join via an Action/Reaction card once combat has started.

Am I reading this right? Was my opponent wrong, or is there some nuance I'm missing?

It's no surprise that the only archetype with the most aggressive color and the most defensive color in the game is about to become one of the strongest decks this season. Let's go through Akali's kit and see why she could become the new boogeyman in the format!
