This is Teemo Alt Art, and it’s already positioning itself as the must-have flex card of Riftbound TCG’s Preview Season.
Same power curve as the base version, same Hidden burst damage, but with a costume swap so outrageous it breaks focus at the table. And that’s the whole point.
Gameplay / Cool Mechanics
Teemo Alt Art sticks to the tried-and-true formula: 2 cost, 1 HP, and the Hidden keyword, meaning you can stash him for a surprise deploy when it matters.
On play, he spikes to 5 power thanks to the +3 boost for the turn.
That’s enough to punish open lanes or force early trades, especially when your opponent’s holding slower cards.
He’s a tempo assassin that rewards sharp sequencing and board reading. Whether you use him early for pressure or late to close a gap, he always threatens more than he costs.
This version doesn’t change the function—it just makes the humiliation louder.
Visuals
Teemo Alt Art is a menace in a bumblebee hoodie. The expression is pure smug. The color palette is sunshine yellow, flower-patch soft, and ironically joyful—right before he hits for five and disappears. The backdrop?
Blooming meadows, cute bees, and zero tension. It’s visual bait designed to disarm you before the damage lands.
The bee hood even has antennae flopping off the top. It’s hilarious. It’s insulting. And it’s going to be the preferred skin for every Teemo main who plays to tilt.
Pull Rate & Value Speculation
This is card 197a/298, officially an alt art version of Teemo from the core set. Likely to appear in premium drops, collector boxes, or seasonal promotions.
Foil variant almost guaranteed given the Champion rarity and visual punch.
If this ends up being short-printed or exclusive, expect aftermarket prices to spike hard—especially from meme deck collectors and full-art hunters.
Teemo Alt Art is a playable insult. And that’s why I want four.
