Greetings, Riftbounders!

The moment we've all been waiting for is almost here! This Friday, May 1st, our store is launching its Pre-Rift event! This will be your first contact with the new set, but more importantly, your first chance to get your hands on the new cards, test the mechanics, and walk away with exclusive discounts!

If you haven't yet participated in a Pre-Rift, here's what you need to know:

What is a Pre-Rift?

It's a friendly and relaxed event played in a sealed format. This means you don't need to bring your usual deck. We'll provide everything you need to play, from runes to packs. It's an opportunity to learn, discuss mechanics, ask questions, and discover potential combos that will liven up your matches in a pressure-free atmosphere.

You will each receive a kit containing:

• 5 Unleashed Boosters to open and keep.
• 1 Random Champion Pack (from Jhin, Vi, Master Yi, Ivern, Diana, or Kha'Zix). This pack contains a Legend, a Rare Champion, a Battleground, and specific support cards.
• The exclusive Promo card: Ashe, Focused, with a special Pre-Rift seal (available while supplies last).

Format Rules

Building your deck when you don't know where to start can be daunting. And sometimes you don't dare ask what's best, so here's a short guide to answer the most common questions:

Deck Size

Minimum 25 cards. You can go over, but try to stay close to 25. 15 of them should be for your units. Make sure you have cards that don't require too many runes to start with!

Domains

You can use up to 3 domains. (Legends and Signatures have two.)

Copies

Unlike Constructed, you can use more than 3 copies of the same card if you're lucky enough to open them! This is entirely to your advantage!

Runes

Runes will be available at the counter. Simply decide how many of each domain you want.

Modifications

Remember that you can modify your deck between rounds to adapt to your opponent. Don't hesitate, attack if you can!

Champions

Each Sealed Kit will randomly contain a pack centered around a Champion. This will guide you towards a particular strategy.

Jhin

Play cards that cost 4 or more runes to trigger a cumulative effect that will benefit you in the long run.

Vi

For those who like aggression, you can overkill opposing units while gaining bonuses to increase the power of your own.

Master Yi

The master of XP, the game's new mechanic. Accumulate XP to unlock the full power of your units.

Ivern

Battle with the franchise's iconic animals! Poros, cats, dogs, birds. The more territory you conquer, the more powerful you become.

Diana

Use her extra energy to surprise your opponent. This deck operates in the shadows, so be unpredictable!

Kha'Zix

Unlike Yi, Kha'Zix loves spending his XP to evolve and adapt to every situation.

With all this, you'll be ready for the event! Come see us in store this Friday or reserve your spot online. Kit supplies are limited, and this is your only chance to experience the excitement of the Unleashed launch with the entire community.

See you soon!
