Riftbound Radiance Chase Cards: Prices and What to Pull

One caveat before the numbers: Radiance launches worldwide on October 23, 2026, so every price below comes from presale and Pre-Rift copies. Thin sales make for jumpy prices, and more copies hit the market with every box opened this weekend.

Riftbound Radiance chase cards, ranked by price

TCGplayer Market Price from the October 21, 2026 daily file, before release. Every pack has one slot that Riot says "can be a Rare, Epic, Alt Art, Special Alt, Overnumber, or Ultimate Rare", and nearly everything on this list comes out of it.

Most of the top end hasn't traded at all yet. Of the 32 Overnumbered, signed and Ultimate Rare listings on TCGplayer, 25 had no market price on the snapshot, and only one of the 15 signed prints did. That one is the signed Heartsteel Aphelios, and its round four-figure price tells you how few copies have changed hands. Treat it as an asking price, not a value.

Overnumbered Legends: Riven leads the Radiance chase cards

Riot gave each of the nine new Legends an Overnumbered print, which "can be found with an artist's signature as well". Riven's is the most expensive of the ones that have sold, and we don't think that's only the art. Her Legend text reads "Units you play to battlefields you control enter ready," which gives players a reason to want her too, not just binder collectors. One copy costs about as much as four booster displays right now.

Here's the part that matters if you just want to play her: the regular Rare version of The Exile has exactly the same text and sells for about five dollars. The Overnumbered costs roughly a hundred times more for the frame and the art. Among the Legends that have sold, Evelynn's Overnumbered sits second, with Orianna and K'Sante a long way behind.

Six Heartsteel Overnumbers ride along with the Legends: Ezreal, Sett, Yone, K'Sante, Aphelios and Kayn in the band's fashion-shoot art. Riftbound.gg reports that Riot has said no Overnumber will be reprinted with the same art and frame. If that holds, it's the best argument for paying up early.

The K/DA Specials: priced on demand, not scarcity

Riot couldn't have a music themed set "without featuring the K/DA girls", and the five Specials all landed in the high double digits to low hundreds. That's interesting, because Riot's overview also says "Special Alt Art Cards appear at roughly the same frequency as Alt Art cards." Regular Radiance alt arts sell for under twenty dollars at the median. Same odds, four to eight times the price: what you're paying for is the K/DA name, not rarity. If Radiance opens heavy this weekend, these are the prices with the most room to fall.

Sydeon's pull of a K/DA Ahri at a Pre-Rift is a good look at what the card looks like in hand:

The Epics players actually want

Below the showcase prints, the money is in Epics you can play. Of the 174 Radiance singles with a price, only 16 base-rarity cards sell for ten dollars or more, and the top three are Signature cards: Blade of the Exile for Riven, Demacian Standard for Jarvan IV and Hexplosive Minefield for Ziggs. Blade of the Exile is an Equipment you can attach by paying or by exhausting a friendly unit, and it's the most expensive non-showcase card in the set.

Signature cards cut both ways. The Core Rules say "a deck may only contain a sum total of 3 Signature cards," and "All of the Signature cards must have the Champion tag that corresponds to the Champion Legend of the deck." So a Signature Epic is worth a lot to a Riven or Jarvan player and nothing to anyone else. One Pre-Rift player found that out the hard way: "all 3 Epics were signature cards, which did not fit into my precon deck."

Two Epics break that pattern. Neeko, Blending In is neutral and lets you "choose 3 different legends in addition to your starting legend," and Angler Wyrm is a Unit with Deflect rather than a Signature card. Neither is locked to one Legend, so more decks can use them.

Is a Radiance box worth opening for these?

A booster display holds 24 packs of 14 cards at a $119.99 list price and sells for about $140 on TCGplayer. The Pre-Rift weekend gave a preview of how opening goes. u/AngelTheTaco opened five kits and called the haul "better than a box". Replying, u/TritononGaming ran the box math: "In a box you should expect ~6 Epic and 2 Alt Arts." At this week's medians, that's about $105 of Epics and alt arts, short of what the box costs. The box only comes out ahead when the showcase slot lands an Overnumber or a K/DA card.

The misses are quieter than the hits. In the same thread, u/heysteb opened boxes with "Not a single ON", and as u/IaMThoR put it: "The people who are getting nothing aren't going to be posting their pulls on reddit."

The Ultimate Rare is the long shot of long shots. It's Packed Amphitheater, Riot's first showcase Battlefield, and it "appears in approximately 0.025% of booster packs." That's one pack in 4,000, or roughly one display in 167. Nobody had sold one on TCGplayer by the snapshot, and the cheapest listing asked well into four figures.

Our take

Open Radiance because you enjoy opening Riftbound. If you want to play Riven, buy the Rare Exile for pocket change and put the savings into her Signature gear. We'd treat the Overnumbered as a collector piece and wait for launch-week supply before paying for one. If you pulled a K/DA Special or a Signature Epic you won't play, selling into presale demand is a sensible call: those prices rest on a handful of early sales, and they're the ones most exposed to a flood of opened boxes.

How we checked this: on October 22, 2026 we pulled TCGplayer market prices for every Radiance single and sealed product in the October 21 daily file (tcgcsv.com), sorted all 174 priced singles by print, counted which showcase prints had no sale yet, and checked card text in Riot's card gallery and pack odds in Riot's Radiance overview.
