RiftCompare
RiftCompare editorial team
RiftCompare is an independent price-comparison site for Riftbound: League of Legends TCG, tracking singles and sealed product across stores in Australia, New Zealand, the United States, the United Kingdom, Singapore and Canada.
The guides and posts published under this byline are written by the people who run the site. They are researched against the same price database the rest of the site is built on, which means the figures quoted in an article are the figures our importer actually recorded — not estimates, and not numbers carried over from somewhere else.
We are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Riot Games. We do not accept payment for coverage, and no retailer has any say in what we publish or how results are ranked. Where an outbound link earns us a commission it is marked as such, on the page, next to the link.
What we can claim expertise in is narrow and specific: the prices. We have been importing and reconciling Riftbound listings from every store we track since the game launched, which means we know where the data is reliable, where it is thin, and where a headline number is misleading — a card listed at a low price by one shop that never has stock, a printing routinely confused with its base card, a market where postage is the real cost. That is what the guides are about, and it is why they quote figures from the same database the rest of the site runs on rather than from other sites.
Where a piece is opinion rather than fact — whether a set is worth opening, whether a card looks expensive — it is written as opinion. Nothing published here is financial advice, and trading card prices fall as readily as they rise.
