Riftbound TCG: 10 Brilliant Spiritforged Cards That Fans Should Consider Picking Up as Singles – IGN

Blood Money

0

At uncommon, this card is relatively easy to pick up at an affordable price as a single. This is a super cheap and efficient early removal spell to help you stay on tempo, and you’d be hard pressed to see Yellow decks like Viktor, Herald of the Arcane not running three copies.

Card Sharp

0

Card Sharp is pretty versatile. There are a few Power hungry decks with Spiritforged, so being able to offset some of that cost with the Gold generated from Card Sharp and pressure with a 3 MIght body is worth considering.

Not So Fast

0

Thanks to the recent errata to refexive triggers, nerfing cards like Icathian Rain, Not So Fast got significantly better. Before, you’d only be able to counter just one instance of damage, but now you can just counter the entire spell with Not So Fast. Definitely keep this card on your radar if you like Green decks.

Bellows Breath

0

The new Repeat mechanic offers a more dynamic way to interact with opponents. Bellows Breath is one of these, being able to clear a Battlefield of smaller units in the early game.

Trinity Force

0

One of my favorite new equipments from the set, Trinity Force is one of the few cards that allow you to store extra points. I can see this making waves in Master Yi, Wuju Bladesman, as his Legend ability buffs defending units. In the Origins meta, the deck was great at holding to score points, and looks to be the same situation with Spiritforged.

Piercing Light

0

Like Bellows Breath, this can be an early game removal spell for tempo, or an easy two-for-one later on. Kai’Sa, Daughter of the Void typically ran two to three copies of Falling Star, so I can see this finding a home in that deck too.

Ferrous Forerunner

0

Ferrous Forerunner is a big body that continues to pressure your opponent even after it dies. Doing its best Wurmcoil Engine impression, this guy will spit out two 3 Might Mech tokens upon death, allowing you to maintain your board presence.

Called Shot

0

Even if Called Shot had 1 Energy cost, I would consider extremely powerful. At 0 Energy and sporting the Repeat mechanic has convinced me it’s the best draw and filter spell in the game. With a ton of ways to generate Gold tokens to help pay Power costs, this card is positioned to be seen in every Purple deck.

Guardian Angel

0

Guardian Angel is essentially copies four through 6 of Zhonya’s Hourlgass, which has the same effect. This, however, is an equipment, so it comes with a +1 Might buff and costs a Power to equip to a unit. Master Yi, Wuju Bladesman is still poised to be a contender with Spiritforged, and this card is one reason for that.

Ezreal, Prodigy

0

While Draven, Glorious Executioner is easily the strongest deck in the Spiritforged meta, many lists are playing Ezreal, Prodigy, which is the best card in the set for my money.

Purple is undoubtedly very strong, and Ezreal’s effect allows you to filter through your deck and a lot cards early, and fits into a few other archetypes nicely.
