Riftbound’s fourth set is here and in the hands of eager players and collectors. Which got us wondering: which cards in the Vendetta set are fans most keen to add to their collections? Let’s find out, as we take a look at the most valuable cards in Riftbound: Vendetta!
10. Mel, Soul’s Reflection – Showcase, 195/166
The first card on our list of the most valuable cards in Riftbound’s Vendetta set is the overnumbered variant of Mel, Soul’s Reflection. Overnumbered cards are variant, alternate art versions of other cards, with numbers which go “over” the designated number of cards in the set. For example, this Mel is card number 195 of 166, as you can see in the bottom left of the card.
9. Irelia, Fervent – Showcase, 174/166
You’ll notice that all of the cards on this list are overnumbered; these are always the most valuable cards in every Riftbound set. Of course, all Riftbound cards have spectacular art, but overnumbered cards feel extra special. Not just with their art, but the textured, foil treatment on the cards too.
8. Jayce, Defender of Tomorrow – Showcase, 194/166
One of the standout characters adapted for Arcane, the animated show based on League of Legends, Jayce always pops up as one of the most popular cards in our Riftbound lists. So here he is again, this time with an overnumbered card, featuring alternate art. You haven’t seen the last of this artwork either, as you’ll soon see!
7. Zed, Master of Shadows – Showcase, 191/166
In League of Legends lore, Zed is the leader of the organization known as the Order of Shadow, which was created to repel Noxian invaders. Zed himself has mastered various techniques to defend his nation, such as the shadow form. However, the power Zed uses can be corrupting, and just one look at the art on this variant card shows just how dark and forbidding he can appear.
6. Kennen, Heart of the Tempest – Showcase, 197/166
The only Yordle member of the Kinkou Order in Ionia, Kennen features here with an alternate skin to his usual appearance. The cool thing about alternate art cards in Riftbound is how they use different skins from League of Legends, allowing players to collect cards featuring their favorite characters, in the skins they use in-game!
5. Akali, Rogue Assassin – Showcase, 189/166
Akali was originally part of the Kinkou Order, but Zed’s corruption caused her to leave and operate alone in her defense of Ionia. Which is why she’s earned the title of Rogue Assassin, which is also the name of this overnumbered Legend card!
4. Nasus, Curator of the Sands (Signature) – Showcase, 192*/166
Here we have the first of the Signature cards from Vendetta to appear on this list. Signature cards feature the same art that appears on other overnumbered cards, with a big exception. The signature of the card’s artist appears as a printed element on the card, and you can also see that the card’s number has an asterisk alongside it.
3. Renekton, Butcher of the Sands (Signature) – Showcase, 190*/166
Signature cards are incredibly rare, and as such, we’ve been unable to track down a high resolution image of the Renekton Signature card! However, due to it being identical in all but the printed signature and asterisk alongside the card number, we’re instead showing you the standard, overnumbered Renekton card here.
2. Shen, Eye of Twilight (Signature) – Showcase, 193*/166
Here we are with yet another Signature card. However, this time we have managed to get our hands on a high resolution image of the card! Even the signature on this one is pretty cool, as you can see, let along the gorgeous art of Shen himself.
1. Jayce, Defender of Tomorrow (Signature) – Showcase, 194*/166
See, didn’t we tell you that you hadn’t seen the last of this Jayce art? Here it is once more, this time with the addition of the artist’s signature. This time, it appears on the most sought after card in the Riftbound: Vendetta set!
