Kai’Sa is a powerhouse six-drop that turns your graveyard into a loaded cannon.
With flexible battlefield movement and spell recursion on Conquer, this Champion makes every transition into combat a potential swing in card advantage and tempo.
In Riftbound’s growing set of battlefield-centric decks, Kai’Sa isn’t just another finisher—she’s an evolving win condition.
Gameplay / Cool Mechanics
Let’s start with the keyword: Ganking. That means Kai’Sa can move from battlefield to battlefield, which alone gives her positional leverage that most Champions can’t match.
You’re not locked into a single lane. You shift her wherever she’s needed—threatening weak spots, dodging bad matchups, or pushing through the win lane.
Then comes the real reward. When Kai’Sa conquers a battlefield, you get to cast a spell from your trash with Energy cost less than your points without paying its Energy cost.
You still pay Power, but skipping Energy opens the door to value chains and tempo spikes, especially in the late game where every mana counts.
After you cast the spell, you recycle it—meaning Kai’Sa doesn’t just cast from the grave. She loops it back into your deck.
The obvious payoff is in control or midrange decks that build to a late-game swing. But even in tempo shells, Kai’Sa lets you recast cheap removal or utility spells for free while applying pressure.
That’s hard to block, and harder to trade into. She’s not splashable, but she’s high-ceiling in lists that care about point scaling and efficient recursion.
Visuals
Kudos Productions gives Kai’Sa the full voidblade treatment—purple energy fractals explode around her like wings, while she dives through an ink-black backdrop that makes the lighting pop.
Her hair cuts through the composition like a trail, drawing your eye directly to her clenched fists and narrowed focus. It’s all forward motion.
The art isn’t about threat. It’s about inevitability. She’s not charging. She’s already closing the gap.
Pull Rate and Value Speculation
Set Number: OGN 112 out of 298
Rarity: Champion (likely Epic or higher)
Foil Status: Confirmed
Alt Art: Not revealed
Overnumbered: Possible, not confirmed
Kai’Sa is a likely top-tier finisher for Conquer-focused and spell-recursion decks. If Energy ramp and grave play continue to develop as themes, she’ll slot right in as a cornerstone.
Expect collectors to chase the foil early, especially if she sees tournament play. If an overnumbered version drops during Preview Season, it will almost certainly be a chase pull.
Kai’Sa is one of the most dangerous six-drops shown so far. If you like playing with your trash and turning every combat into a comeback, this is the Champion you build around.
