Teemo’s back, and in Riftbound: League of Legends TCG, he’s not just a meme—he’s a Legend. Swift Scout (Card 307/298) offers something that’s both flavorful and quietly potent: control over your own hidden info.
In a game where concealment and trickery matter, that’s not just cute—it’s disruptive.
With so many strategies revolving around baiting, flipping, or misdirection, this card gives you a reliable tempo tool disguised in a yordle-sized package.
Gameplay / Cool Mechanics
Swift Scout lets you pay 1 mana to hide a card with HIDDEN, bypassing the usual cost.
That’s already a standout line—if you’re playing a deck built around subterfuge, mushrooms, or other trap-style mechanics, this discount helps you stay fluid while keeping your board ambiguous. But the real kicker?
Tap and pay 1 mana to bounce a Teemo unit you control back to your hand. Whether it’s from your Champion Zone or the battlefield, this effect gives you something very few Legends in this set offer: full vertical recursion.
You can reuse triggers, protect a key piece from removal, or reset your champion if something better shows up.
In a meta that punishes overextension, Swift Scout keeps your pieces alive and hidden—perfect for decks that lean tempo, stealth, or trickery.
Visuals
Jordan Yoon’s art goes full-tilt cute with menace peeking from the edges. Teemo’s giant smile, oversized gloves, and bouncy pose sell his mischief hard—but there’s also danger coded into the bright green traps strapped to his back.
The background’s clean purple void keeps the focus squarely on his antics. It’s clean, vibrant, and immediately recognizable. This isn’t the old scout with bloody hands—this is Teemo in his trading card prime, weaponized adorability.
Pull Rate & Value Speculation
Swift Scout is numbered 307/298, placing it in the overnumbered segment of the set. That immediately makes it a collector-target—even more so because it’s tied to Teemo, one of the most recognizable champions in League history.
There’s no confirmation yet on alt art or foiling, but given Riot’s history of leaning into fan-favorite champs for promos, don’t be surprised if this shows up in a future special pack, event reward, or premium collector bundle.
Gameplay-wise, this isn’t a flashy win-con, but it is the kind of card that stealth decks will run three of.
If recursion, hiding, and tempo gain relevance in the Riftbound meta, this could quietly climb in value as a utility linchpin.
