Riftbound’s new bans: November 23, with Korea waiting for Radiance

Identify Riven, Broken Blade RAD 043 and Zhonya’s Hourglass OGN 077, read the regional timing exception, and keep pre-announcement price observations separate from today’s unverified prices.

Read the calendar before rearranging the binder

A ban announcement can make a familiar card feel different overnight. Riot announced additions to the Standard and Constructed 2v2 ban lists on November 13 UTC, effective November 23. Its regional paragraph matters for readers following Korea: these additions will reach the Korean and Traditional Chinese circuits when Radiance releases there. A global announcement therefore needs a regional reading.

Follow the names, then the dates

Our card story follows two identifiable printings through the announcement. That gives the collector something more useful than a character name alone: a number, an artwork and a dated price record that can be revisited.

The named Riven is Broken Blade

The pictured English regular-art card is Riven, Broken Blade, Radiance RAD 043/167. It is a specific printing of the named card; 043a denotes separate alternate artwork. Keeping that identity visible avoids treating every Riven card as the same object. The printed buff and ready choices are also a useful visual reminder of what this particular unit does.

An old piece of gear joins a new champion unit

Zhonya’s Hourglass is the English Origins OGN 077/298 printing shown here. Seeing the older gear beside the Radiance unit makes the collector’s question more concrete: which copy belongs in the deck, and which remains interesting as part of a character or set collection? Neither preference supplies a new market price.

These price observations predate the announcement

Fresh November 14 prices are unverified. Stored US JustTCG/TCGplayer references for English Near Mint Foil are USD 0.19 for Riven RAD 043, observed November 13 at 01:10:42 UTC, and USD 13.29 for Zhonya OGN 077, observed at 01:09:55 UTC. These are reference prices, not asking prices or confirmed individual sales. They cannot establish a post-announcement move. Content was checked November 14.

Eight cards, two battlefields

The additions are Riven, Broken Blade / Zhonya’s Hourglass / Stellacorn Herder / Nocturne, Horrifying / Rhasa the Sunderer / Brynhir Thundersong / Dazzling Aurora / Baited Hook / Emperor’s Dais / Star Spring. Check the official announcement and the event organizer for the circuit and effective date that apply to your event. We have not verified a Korean Radiance release date for this article.

The discussion is already about what comes next

The public Reddit thread contains welcome for a major change, ideas involving other Riven cards, and questions about the preventive Baited Hook decision. Those are player reactions and deck-building possibilities. They do not establish a winning replacement deck or a price trend. For a binder, the interesting choice can remain personal: the artwork, the character, the set, or the history of a deck you played.
