Hey Riftbounders, I know you've all been asking and sending feedback on the Origins English launch - thank you! We've got an article up now that addresses some of those concerns, and a little bit on what's next.

As we head into launch, we're still working on this issue and will share more detailed info soon, but we don't want to leave you confused going into release weekend. (1/2)
Hi Riftbounders! We’re investigating a potential collation issue impacting rarity distribution with individual Riftbound: Origins booster packs. Early checks suggest that a small percentage of packs include fewer rare cards than intended, with others including more. (1/4)

Hey all! Tons of great questions/feedback about the rules around +/- Might in Riftbound... esp re: weird states around the combo of multiple effects. Updates to our Core Rules will come later; for now, here are answers. TL;DR - First apply increases, then apply decreases. (1/8)

Today I get to share with you all these #riftboundreveals! As many of you know, I've been fortunate enough to consult on the game since very early on, so I've seen a bunch of iterations of a lot of cards. Let me just say that "Blizzard your team" Anivia is a lot more fun than "Never dies" Anivia was

Early in working on Stun as a mechanic for Riftbound we found it to be really interesting as a combat trick. It was a lot like a localized "Fog" effect- it could stop an Enemy Unit from dealing Damage, really tilting complex fights in your favor.

My second and final Riftbound preview card is Eager Apprentice!
This card's flavor text is a perfect encapsulation of me trying to pilot my Kai'Sa spells deck. Also, this card is quite good in a Kai'Sa spells deck!
(Maybe it's a coincidence... maybe it's narrative design)

Hey, I get to finally talk about a card from #Riftbound Origins and... it's Garbage! But like, in a good way.
Garbage Grabber is an odd card since it isn't tightly tied to any Legend. Origins has cards that aren't shy about which deck they belong in - but we also want some puzzles for you to solve!
