Riot Releases HEARTSTEEL Riftbound Cards: How to Enter the Pre-Order Drawing

After dropping a new music video, the HEARTSTEEL boys are back with a limited-edition Riftbound set. Here’s everything to know about the drop, including how fans can register for pre-order.

HEARTSTEEL Riftbound Cards Are Here

On September 18, League of Legends virtual boy band HEARTSTEEL made their long-anticipated comeback. The group released a music video for ‘Live My Life,’ which has since earned over 4.5 million views. It included an entire concept refresh, with new designs for all members.

First, League released in-game skins to celebrate. Now, limited-edition HEARTSTEEL Riftbound cards are arriving next.

What Set Are the HEARTSTEEL Riftbound Cards In?

The set includes unique card illustrations for Sett, K’Sante, Ezreal, Yone, Kayn, and Aphelios. It’s part of the TCG’s 5th set: Riftbound Radiance.

Each card has a fun vibe similar to classic K-Pop photocards. The boys’ drawings are bedazzled with stickers and have bright color schemes. Plus, the set has both OVN and OVN Signature editions.

In a pre-release video, Riot Games showcased the drop. The studio captioned it: “the boys are back.”

Riftbound HEARTSTEEL Cards Release Date

The Riftbound x HEARTSTEEL card set will officially release on Friday, October 23. This is also when the TCG will transition from Season 4: Vendetta to Season 5: Radiance.

How to Enter the Riftbound Season 5 Radiance Pre-Order Drawing For HEARTSTEEL Cards

Since Riftbound is extremely popular and has high demand, Riot Games is staggering the first few merch drops with a randomized drawing.

Players can register for the Pre-Order drawing on Riftbound’s website here. Pre-Order registration is currently open and will close on September 30. You’ll have to sign in to your account and complete a quick form to register.

You can choose to purchase:

• Riftbound: League of Legends TCG Radiance Evelynn vs Seraphine Showdown Deck
• Riftbound: League of Legends TCG Radiance Booster Display

If players are chosen, they’ll recieve an email on October 5th and have 24 hours to complete their purchase.

This makes things fairer by giving all players a chance to purchase and preventing scalpers. For example, Riftbound did the same thing with the T1 Worlds 2025 Signature Edition set. The team’s fans quickly swarmed pre-orders to get signature cards of Faker, Keria, and other players, and Riot successfully identified over 60% of accounts in the drawing as bots and removed them.
