_2026-08-01 · RiftCompare_

Vendetta's weekly Nexus Night events hand out a 25-card promo cycle at local stores — and the chase card is Mel, Newly Awakened. Here's every promo confirmed so far: Mel plus the full 6-card promo rune cycle, with live prices and pop-up card views.

**Nexus Nights** are Riftbound's weekly casual events, run at local game stores on whatever day works best for each store — a demo or a casual event, not a competitive tournament. Vendetta's Nexus Night season brings its own **25-card promo cycle** to chase, headlined by a genuine chase card. Riot confirms the cards in waves rather than all at once, so this post tracks exactly what's real right now — no guessing at cards that haven't actually been shown yet.

## The chase card: Mel, Newly Awakened

The confirmed chase card for Vendetta's Nexus Night season is **Mel, Newly Awakened** — a promo printing (**069b/166**) of the existing Champion Unit, alongside her regular base print and alt-art. It carries the same **"When you play me, draw 1"** ability and Empower payoff as the original, just in the Nexus Night promo treatment.

## The 6 promo runes

Alongside Mel, the full **rune cycle** — Fury, Calm, Mind, Body, Chaos and Order — gets its own Nexus Night promo printing (**R01b** through **R06b**), matching the same treatment Vendetta's base runes already have. These are common pulls in the pack, but a full set completes the cycle.

## What's still unconfirmed

Riot's own Nexus Night promo page states there are **25 total promo cards** across the season, but as of this post only Mel and the 6 runes have actual confirmed art — **7 of the 25**. The rest of the page currently shows placeholder cards standing in for reveals that haven't landed yet ("*these cards are used as placeholders… we will update this section soon with the promo tagged cards*"), so we're deliberately not listing or imagining names for them here. We'll add each one the moment it's genuinely confirmed, the same way we did for these seven.

## How to get Nexus Night promos

Find your nearest Riftbound local game store and show up for their weekly Nexus Night — completing a demo or event earns a **3-card promo pack**. The specific day and format varies by store, so check with your local shop directly. Promo availability is while supplies last, so earlier weeks of the season are your best shot at any specific card.
