Riftbound Booster Box: What's in a Box and Pack
A Riftbound booster box, which Riot calls a booster display, holds 24 packs of 14 cards. Here is what each pack slot can hold, where the overnumbered and signature printings come from, what the Vendetta Vault is, and what Radiance comes in when it releases on October 23, 2026.
What's in a Riftbound booster box
A booster box is 24 sealed booster packs and nothing else. Riot's name for it is a booster display, and every Riftbound booster set so far, from Origins to Radiance, has come in the same 24-pack box with 14 cards in each pack.
Riot's Merch Store priced the Radiance display at $119.99 (€127.99), plus shipping. Stores set their own prices, which can be higher, especially around a release.
What's in a Riftbound booster pack
Every pack has 7 Commons, 3 Uncommons, one foil, two cards that are Rare or better, and one token or rune. Riot lists the slots in each set's overview, and Radiance changes one of them.
| Slot | Vendetta (and Unleashed) | Radiance |
|---|---|---|
| 7 cards | Common | Common |
| 3 cards | Uncommon | Uncommon |
| 1 foil | Common, Uncommon, Rare or Epic | Common, Uncommon, Rare or Epic |
| Rare slot 1 | Rare, Epic, Alt, Special Alt or Overnumber | Rare or Epic |
| Rare slot 2 | Rare, Epic, Alt, Special Alt or Overnumber | Rare, Epic, Alt Art, Special Alt, Overnumber or Ultimate Rare |
| 1 card | Token, Rune or Alt Rune | Token, Rune or Alt Art Rune |
Unleashed's two rare slots also listed Ultimate, for its Ultimate Rare; Vendetta's list does not. In Radiance, one of the two rare slots is always a plain Rare or Epic, so the showcase printings all come from the other. Riot hasn't said how that changes the number of showcase cards in a box.
The last slot holds a basic rune, an alternate art rune or a token, so a pack gives you at most one rune. A deck's rune pool is 12 runes, which is one reason the Vault comes with 36.
The layout changes again with Legacy, the set after Radiance (January 29, 2027): Riot is replacing one Common slot with a slot that holds a Legend or a battlefield, about half the time each, so packs from Legacy on will have 6 Commons.
Alternate art, overnumbered and signature printings
The rare slots are where every showcase printing comes from, and each kind is marked on its collector number. Riot's data gives all of them the Showcase rarity. Using Akali from Vendetta:
Akali, Rogue Assassin
VEN-139/166
139/166: Akali, Rogue Assassin, the main-set Rare.
Akali, Deadly Weapon
VEN-021a/166
021a/166: an alternate art of Akali, Deadly Weapon.
Akali, Rogue Assassin
VEN-189/166
189/166: the overnumbered Legend, with new art.
Akali, Rogue Assassin
VEN-189*/166
189*/166: the signature printing.
An alternate art has a letter after its number (021a) and new art. Riot's slot list calls these Alt. A Special Alt is an alternate art with special numbering: Vendetta's are SP1 to SP6, Epic champion units reprinted from earlier sets. Riot says Vendetta's Crystal Rose alternate arts appear as often as its other alternate arts, and that Radiance's Special Alts appear at roughly the same frequency as its alternate arts.
An overnumbered card has a number above the set's total, like 189/166. A signature printing is an overnumbered card with an asterisk (189*/166), which TCGplayer lists as "(Signature)". Riot's pack lists don't name signature printings separately, so they come from the same rare slots. Every overnumbered and signature printing →
Don't confuse a signature printing with a Signature card. Signature is also a supertype: an Epic tied to one champion, printed inside the main set, which you can pull in a rare slot or the foil slot like any Epic. Signature cards and signature printings →
An Ultimate Rare is the scarcest printing. Unleashed's was Baron Nashor, and Radiance has the second, a showcase battlefield. Foil is a finish, not a printing: the foil slot can be any Common, Uncommon, Rare or Epic. How every Riftbound version differs →
Riftbound pull rates: what Riot has published
Riot has published odds for one thing: the Ultimate Rare. Unleashed's appear in under 0.1% of packs, and Radiance's in about 0.025% of packs, averaged over the print run. A pack holds at most one, and Riot says no pack, box or case is guaranteed one.
Riot has not published odds for alternate arts, overnumbered cards or signature printings, so this page doesn't give any. Per-box estimates you'll find elsewhere come from people counting their own openings, not from Riot. Riot also notes that any rate it states is an average across the print run and "not guarantees of appearance in booster packs or booster displays."
Other sealed products: Vaults, Showdown Decks and starters
Besides packs and displays, each set has a Vault, a ready-to-play deck product, and Pre-Rift kits for its launch events. The Vault is a small bundle, not a collector box.
The Vendetta Vault, released July 31, 2026, is a card storage box with 6 Vendetta booster packs, 36 basic runes (6 of each) and 3 double-sided full-art tokens. Asmodee UK lists it at an RRP of £34.99. Unleashed had the first Vault, with the same runes and tokens plus 2 dividers.
Vendetta introduced Showdown Decks: two ready-to-play decks built to be played against each other, Zed vs. Shen. Pre-Rift kits are sold to stores for launch events and hold five boosters and a seeded Pre-Rift pack for each new Legend.
Earlier sets came with Champion Decks, preconstructed around one champion: Viktor, Jinx and Lee Sin in Origins, Fiora and Rumble in Spiritforged, and Vi and Vex in Unleashed. Origins: Proving Grounds is the starter box, four decks for two to four players, and its cards don't come in packs. Riot has announced a Proving Grounds 2nd Edition for February 19, 2027 at $40, and the Gift of the Rift bundle for December 4, 2026, with packs from the first five sets, 36 runes and an alternate art Akali promo.

| Product | What's in it |
|---|---|
| Vendetta Booster Display | 24 packs of 14 cards |
| Vendetta Vault | 6 packs, 36 runes, 3 tokens, storage box |
| Showdown Decks: Zed vs. Shen | Two ready-to-play decks |
| Origins: Proving Grounds | Four starter decks for 2 to 4 players |
Radiance: sealed lineup and preorders
Radiance, Riftbound's fifth set, releases on October 23, 2026 in English, French and Chinese, with Pre-Rift events at stores from October 16 to 22. Riot's Merch Store lists two of its products with prices.
| Product | What's in it | Riot's price |
|---|---|---|
| Radiance Booster Display | 24 packs of 14 cards, from a pool of 180 cards with 66 Showcase cards | $119.99 |
| Showdown Decks: Evelynn vs. Seraphine | Two 56-card decks, two paper playmats and a rulebook | $34.99 |
| Radiance Vault | Storage box, 6 packs, foil tokens and 36 runes | Not stated |
| Pre-Rift kits | Five boosters and a seeded Pre-Rift pack for each of the nine new Legends, through stores | Not stated |
Preorders run through two channels. Riot's Merch Store sold its allotment by drawing: sign-ups ran September 25 to 30, and selected players were emailed from October 5 with a 24-hour window to buy. Everywhere else, you preorder from a local game store or retailer at its own price. Riot says the full Showdown decklists come on October 16.
Each of Radiance's nine new Legends has an overnumbered printing, and the set has its Ultimate Rare battlefield. The Radiance set guide →
What a box's value rides on
Most of the money in a Riftbound box is in a handful of showcase printings, and those are the ones Riot publishes no odds for. On September 30, 2026, the signature printing of Akali, Rogue Assassin (189*/166) was $3,229.71, the overnumbered printing without the asterisk was $588.67, and the main-set Rare was $0.15.
Vendetta's five most valuable cards that day were all signature-printed Legends, the fifth at $1,124.31. Its most valuable main-set card was the Epic Astral Heron at $36.63. Whether a box comes out ahead depends almost entirely on whether it holds one of those printings, which is why TurnZero HQ doesn't put an expected dollar value on a box.
