Riftbound’s New Rules Will Catch You Out

DESCRIPTION: Riot dropped three rules announcements at once and the first one is going to cost somebody a game. At high-level organized play, once you move in and pass focus, you can't take it back. Here's everything that changes October 16: takebacks and angle shooting, Neeko's extra legends, Orianna's strangest gear interactions, an Ekko + Unlicensed Armory line worth testing, Show Off snapshots, and all four card errata with real board states so you can see exactly how each ruling plays out. 0:00 You can't take that back 0:45 The Master Yi takeback, on the board 1:14 What you CAN still change (and angle shooting) 2:15 Casual vs competitive, bluffing, notes, tokens 3:04 Loops - shortcuts and stalling 3:48 Neeko's extra legends 5:15 Orianna's weird gear rulings 6:45 The Ekko + Unlicensed Armory line 7:34 Show Off locks the number 8:11 Gutter Guardian + new choices 8:54 All four card errata 10:26 Before your next event Every ruling checked against Riot's three official articles and the Tournament Rules document.
