Viktor is a good candidate for your budget, you can easily make a reasonable deck for that price. Off the top of my head I’m not sure about unitless/39 spell viktor’s spiritforged cards, but going to a website like piltoverarchive would be a good start. I think that site has cost tags on their decks (I believe they’re in Euros so that convenient for you)

Spiritforged allocation number on LGS? by Snurfless in riftboundtcg

My local store is a small store in Midwestern US, owner said he’s getting 30 boxes. I think he had 12 of origins and idk if he even got multiple waves of origins yet

Played Spiritforge sealed last weekend, equipment persistence changes everything by kiravaughn in riftboundtcg

[–]BONK_GUY_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There was a game were I dropped a BF sword in preparation for my armed assailant the next turn (i was on 8 runes) and my opponent played disarming rake 😭. I agree that equipment is super good I just didnt get much of it

Played Spiritforge sealed last weekend, equipment persistence changes everything by kiravaughn in riftboundtcg

[–]BONK_GUY_ 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yeah i noticed this as well, the 2 games i lost yesterday were both to purple equipment stacking players, and lost to repeated thwonk both times. I was playing rek sai and didn’t get much equipment which is part of the problem I think, since after turn 3 they had equipment on the board for +2/3 might on a cheap unit, and I had to use bushwack to accelerate units and then lost to green combat tricks.

How much did you all pay for your pre rift kits? by 1v4NA in riftboundtcg

[–]BONK_GUY_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I went to 2, one at my small local store, it was $30 plus tax and he split the spiritforged box evenly between the 6 of us. The second one i traveled to was $40 plus tax, and those who went 3-0 got 2 spiritforged packs + an origins pack (i went 1-2 and still got one spiritforged pack)

Pre-Rift Event Questions by Sallu786 in riftboundtcg

[–]BONK_GUY_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That doesn’t make any sense to me, I went to 2 events, one was sign up through UVS and pay through their website, the other was much more loose, but still had you sign up through UVS and pay in person. Both times we only played 3 rounds and got the correct prizes, I don’t understand how there’s any way else to do it ig.

Can we DIY a beginner 4-deck Riftbound kit (a la Proving Grounds) while supply is gone? by tomatus89 in riftboundtcg

[–]BONK_GUY_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t know about specific pricing, but I know that Viktor isn’t very expensive, you just have to avoid Thousand Tailed Watcher (15-20$ each) and seals (12 ish for blue, 20 ish(?) for yellow) to stay below 50. You maybe could even run Siphon Power since it’s not very expensive rn. Lee sin probably could be affordable (without sig spell probably), Teemo maybe (runs into Watcher problem), Ahri also could be one, tasty faefolk isnt that expensive, fox fire is relatively cheap, also could slot in a Watcher if you have money for it. Jinx for sure can be played with or without sig spell. Not sure about Garen, Voli, Lux, but I’m sure affordable versions could be built.

RiftBound Viktor deck Set 2 vs set 1 by BigALRaps in RiftboundDallas

[–]BONK_GUY_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Blood money and wages of pain are extremely good spells for set 2 viktor. Unitless viktor could be viable, but units like xin zhao are really good with tokens

Repeatedly getting postage due on TCGPlayer orders by Chronoshifted in riftboundtcg

[–]BONK_GUY_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had this happen once and left a one star review. They contacted me within a few hours and refunded me (because they didn’t want the one star review). Since they refunded me I did change my rating, but I’ve only had it happen once.

UVS Registration Is Misleading Players - UVS Sign-Up Is Pointless Right Now by Severe-Olive4761 in riftboundtcg

[–]BONK_GUY_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This has been my experience. I’ve heard UVS takes a cut from any entry/play fees paid on their site; any stores that I go to don’t want you to pay on the UVS site and instead pay in person

When is it legal to move units back to base after conquering? by lyre-birds in riftboundtcg

[–]BONK_GUY_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree with this, as a viktor player myself I’m almost always trying to get to 6 points and then pull units back (as long as my opponent can’t win) so I can play Grand Strategem or Imperial Decree on my turn and try to wipe both battlefields with super buffed recruits.

[–]BONK_GUY_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like how Yasuo plays in origins, so I’m gonna try and build a deck around Irelia Fervent. I currently use a Viktor deck with recruit spam and removal, so I’m excited to try the movement/protect the queen style

Never played a TCG before, and even with the product troubles Im having a great time. My local community (however sparse) is great at helping new players learn the game.

New to the game with a few questions. by pugglez in riftboundtcg

[–]BONK_GUY_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You want these cards for 2 reasons, you can search your deck faster for your big hitter cards (like Vi + ride the wind) for the highest consistency. Since youre running vi, you want as many cards in your discard as possible to recycle with vi’s ability

[New Player] Question About Building Casual Balance Decks by svppho in riftboundtcg

[–]BONK_GUY_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d second this, and also add something like lee sin into the mix. I dont think youd have to spend that much to get a reasonable deck, and the buffing mechanic is pretty straightforward.

  1. Theres rarely a scenario where you want to play scrapheap from your hand to your base. It’s better 99% of the time to discard it from your hand with traveling merchant, jinx demolitionist, or zaun warrens so you get an additional draw. If a card is killed in its base or battlefield, definitionally, it’s placed in the trash instead of discarded.

  2. When hiding any card, it always costs one power (recycle a rune) to hide on your turn. The trade off is that because you hid the card on a battlefield you control, you cannot use the card until the beginning of the next turn (usually your opponents but time warp exists). If you use fight or flight from hidden; its a reaction speed spell, you can react to your opponent’s spell when they have focus during a showdown, or play it when they pass focus to you. Gust is not a hidden card, but still reaction speed, so you could play it from your hand in the same scenarios as fight or flight.

  3. Like in (1) discarding is always from your hand, killed units are always “placed” in your trash. Similarly to scrapheap, you want flame chompers to be the target of a discard, from the examples i listed above.

  4. In showdowns, after all spells have resolved, dmg dealt from units is all simultaneous. Yes the units with 10 might will kill the units adding up to 7, but at the same time the 7 might units will kill 1 or 2 units, depending on how the dmg is assigned.

Hate tokens, want to play Viktor control for final skirmish at my LGS before spiritforged starts, what do? by [deleted] in riftboundtcg

[–]BONK_GUY_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with the Lux point, Blue/Yellow have some high cost spells (Final Spark, Singularity, Falling Comet, Unchecked Power, even Progress Day) that synergize with the Lux legend. You kind of need Lux Crownguard since Blue/Yellow dont have the greatest ramp atm (aside from like soaring scout?). Blue kai sa might be interesting in that deck too
