I realized I'll probably be in a ton of videos and photos this weekend, but only my hands. So I did something I haven't done since my daughter was born: put on fancy nails.
Bets on if I dont get annoyed with them and pull them off over the weekend?

Headed to Gencon and have a Riftbound demo slot? This message is for you! 👀
We love you all and your enthusiasm, but we had several folks who reserved a truly silly amount of our (limited) game slots. Like... super silly. (1/3)

Back again with another #Riftbound card reveal, straight from the bear's paws to your eyes: Sky Splitter!
When we were architecting the set for Origins, we knew we wanted a rune-ramp deck. Big Stuff is, after all, Very Cool. But Big Units are often hard to make good, so how do we support that plan?

Looking to run from the storm? Might I suggest holing up in a nice Back-Alley Bar for a while? You'll even get a nice might boost when it's closing time - perfect for ganking!

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

For my first Riftbound Origins preview card, a little rules talk! Although my main job on the team is narrative, I have TCG editing experience as well, so I've been moonlighting as an editor. There's no blocking in our game, but we do have Block, a combat trick.

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)

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.

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!
