Riftbound Preview Season just unleashed its first 10-cost behemoth, and it’s everything you’d expect from Freljord’s primal storm. Volibear, Furious stakes his ground as the ultimate board controller, shrugging off spells and raining down damage across every corner of the battlefield.
Gameplay / Cool Mechanics
Volibear, Furious is a 10-cost, 9-power Champion Unit aligned with Freljord:
• Deflect 2 (Opponents must pay 2 Frost resources to target me with a spell or ability.)
• When I attack, deal 5 damage split among any number of enemy units here.
At ten mana, he’s a late-game anchor, and Deflect 2 gives him virtual immunity to most single-target removal—your opponent needs to burn extra resources just to stick a spell on him.
Then, his attack trigger lets you carve through enemy boards, allocating five points of damage as you see fit: finish off weakened blockers, soften a key attacker, or clear an entire lane.
It’s a one-card board reset that punishes overcommitment and turns Freljord’s raw power into precise, decisive impact.
Visuals
The art captures Volibear’s savage majesty. His massive frame, fur bristling with frost, towers over shattered ice shards as he roars into a swirling blizzard.
Lightning crackles between his outstretched claws, illuminating tribal runes tattooed across his pelt. The backdrop—a storm-wracked sky and jagged ice spires—echoes his tempestuous nature.
Subtle motion lines in the frigid wind convey the gusts that roll off his form, while the blue-white palette contrasts against the golden card frame, underscoring his status as a powerful late-game legend.
