The 10 most expensive League of Legends cards in Riftbound Vendetta
Riftbound, the League of Legends card game that launched last year to a strong following, is releasing its third set of 2026 called Vendetta—the fourth expansion overall. This represents Riot’s second League of Legends card game, following the underrated Legends of Runeterra. Described as slightly smaller than previous expansions, Vendetta still features iconic League of Legends champions and Runeterra residents.
The set centers on a rivalry theme, designed to enable competitive score-settling within gameplay. Vendetta introduces several new mechanics that expand strategic possibilities. Flow allows cards to be played directly from the trash, while Burn sends cards to the trash, creating additional layers of card management complexity. Unit Gear is a new card type that blends units and gear into hybrid cards, offering novel interactions. Empower mechanics function as buffs that cards gain for a specified cost, with these abilities appearing prominently among the set’s most valuable and expensive cards.
Polygon has compiled a ranked list of the ten most expensive cards in the Vendetta set, highlighting the cards with the greatest resource costs and highest impact potential within the new mechanical framework introduced in this expansion.
