About Decks of Riftbound

Independent, and clear about it

Decks of Riftbound is an independent fan project. Riftbound, its characters, and card artwork belong to Riot Games. Riot Games does not endorse or sponsor this site.

Browser play includes guided lessons and AI practice opponents, which are labeled as AI. The engine is a software implementation under active development; its behavior does not replace an official ruling.

Where the information comes from

• Card references: names, artwork, printed text, and card details come from the Official Riot Card Gallery. Each reference shows its source snapshot date. A snapshot import date is not a claim that every ruling was reviewed on that day.
• Rules and legality: the Official Rules Hub is the starting point for current rules, FAQ documents, and ban lists. Later official corrections and FAQ rulings take precedence where they change older text. Format legality and engine implementation are separate checks.
• Community teaching: Learn Riftbound scenarios helped inspire the practical teaching approach in our tutorial. Learn Riftbound errata is a credited community reference for card corrections. We link it alongside official sources; it is not presented as Riot's own rules authority.
• Published decks: public deck pages show the lists their owners published in our deck browser, with the listed cards, quantities, and available publication and edit dates. A published list is not evidence of tournament performance.

What our analysis can tell you

RDS and card grades are deterministic analytical estimates, not measured win rates. Their assumptions and scoring versions are explained in our scoring methodology. Theory decks and calculated grades should help you ask better questions; they do not establish a competitive metagame.

We do not label a prediction as an observed match result. Any performance claim needs its own data source, format, time period, and sample size. Published lists alone do not supply that evidence.

AI-assisted content and corrections

AI-written news is labeled in the news section and linked to its sources. An automated summary can make mistakes; follow the original report for its complete context. AI practice decisions and analytical explanations are also fallible.

When checking a discrepancy, keep the card identifier, the relevant rule or FAQ, the page address, and the game situation together. Compare the current official source with the source date displayed here. Corrections should update the affected text or logic and its evidence, without silently turning an estimate into a fact.

We show dates when the source or publication supplies them. We do not refresh every page's date merely because it was opened or rebuilt.
