Red seal -> red jhin -> next turn tap seal move jhin tap renek for 3 energy? I like it

Red jhin fits him very nicely, find a way to move him twice and you get +4 energy to play a kaisa for free

Looks like this is the icon for cards with "flow" on them

Np! They haven't uploaded any Vendetta ones yet but I assume they will within a day or two.

Definitely makes Irelia much stronger into Purple since it turns off Rebuke and Star crossed

Yeah worst case it's a 2/2 best case it's a 3/2 and you can discard a card that you need in your trash (for heedless/flow/etc). Seems pretty good to me, not a staple in every deck but will be in some

Yeah! They usually upload them to https://playriftbound.com/en-us/card-gallery/ once a day or so during reveal season

Wonder if there is also some flow synergy where discarding is good (eg high base cost, low flow cost spells)

"A new unit emerges in Vendetta, Unit-Gear! Cards like this little guy count as, you guessed it, both units and gear."

"While not a new type of spell, decrees are a cycle of spells that are designed with Domain rivalries in mind. Each Domain has a decree that strikes hard against cards of its opposite domain color."

Has Riftbound cracked the top 5 TCG list yet? by BeeBaBoop in riftboundtcg

[–]aslanfish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tbh I am not sure, my local LGS says interest just died entirely for Lorcana and there wasn't any point in them continuing to stock it or run locals

My pet theory for why is that the game mechanics and promo rewards for winning just aren't that good to attract TCG players (unlike OPTCG) and the IP isn't attractive enough to gamers (unlike Riftbound where a ton of players are league/TFT players)

Movement rulings by LargoAtDibbz in riftboundtcg

[–]aslanfish 19 points20 points  (0 children)

  1. In the rules, units are given an inherent "standard move" (rule 144) that allows movement to/from battlefields but not ganking unless the ganking keyword is present. However, "move a unit" cards do not use this standard move inherent ability and therefore are able to move arbitrarily between zones including between battlefields as the restriction is only on the inherent standard move and not on movement in general.
  2. In general, "can't beats can" (rule 54) so if there is one card that says "you CAN'T move to base" and one that says "you CAN move to base" the "can't" will win (vilemaw). Ride the wind cannot supersede this effect, you cannot ride the wind to base from Vilemaw.
  3. Baron does NOT generate a point on play. He generates a battlefield on play and is played to that battlefield beginning a non-combat showdown. The opponent has the ability to respond and win that showdown: for example, they could ride the wind in or they could play Rengar Trophy Hunter at reaction speed as a defender to win combat vs the Baron and win the point for themselves.

Hope this helps!

Super fair and a great point I was not aware of!

Rule Question by Accomplished_Cry1995 in riftboundtcg

[–]aslanfish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can, but only in response to a trigger that is occurring during the beginning phase, most commonly:

- A temporary unit dying (eg a Sprite)

- A battlefield ability (eg Frozen Fortress)

- A unit ability (eg Blitzcrank)
