Details on Riftbound Sealed Play

With Spiritforged Pre-Rift events kicking off soon, we've seen some questions come in regarding Sealed Play rules. While you can always refer to the Riftbound Tournament Rules section 602 for the full list of rules for Sealed Play, we're happy to provide a quick reference for the top-line details.

Please Note: Aside from Pre-Rift player kits, Spiritforged products should not be sold during your Pre-Rift events. Product sales are restricted until the full release date on February 13th.

When planning your event, we recommend a capped 3 rounds of casual play for the best experience. A booster display is included in each 16-player Pre-Rift Event Kit for you to use as prize support.

  • 45 min deckbuilding time (if players finish early, feel free to move on early)

  • All players open their Pre-Rift kit and, using the contents of their kit, build decks that meets the following requirements:

    • Main Deck should be EXACTLY 25 cards, Rune deck is exactly 12 Runes, and up to one Legend (a Legend is not required).

    • Main and Rune decks can be composed of up to 3 domains, the Legend must match 2 of the 3 chosen domains.

    • A player's Chosen Champion can be any Champion unit within those 3 domains, and does not have to have match the deck's Legend or Legend's domain.

    • Any Signature Spells that fit within the chosen domains can be included, even if the Legend/Champion does not match.

  • Additional notes:

    • A sealed deck is still legal with no Champion Legend or Chosen Champion. If a player does not have one or the other, they draw an additional card at the start of their first beginning phase each game (if they have neither, they still only draw one).

    • A player may use "blank" battlefields represented by a face-down card if they wish.

    • Players may use basic runes from any source for play, even if they were not part of the contents of their Pre-Rift kit. If players use runes from your provided bulk rune display, it is recommended that you encourage them to return their basic runes at the end of the event.

See Riftbound Tournament Rules for more details.
