League of Legends Riftbound TCG: First Impressions of the Vendetta Booster Set | IGN Preview
Riftbound’s forthcoming Vendetta booster set introduces new mechanics and card combinations that could significantly refresh the League of Legends trading card game’s competitive play. IGN’s preview highlights Flow and Empowered as particularly influential additions, giving players more ways to reuse cards, strengthen permanent effects and shape showdowns.

Flow lets players cast eligible cards from their discard pile before removing them from the game, while Empowered upgrades cards already in play, such as Helm of Suppression’s increased spell tax and Kharox’s ability to use units from an opponent’s discard pile.
