Everyone Is About To Misplay Empower (Riftbound Vendetta)

Here's a prediction you can check against your own games in three weeks: the most common misplay in Vendetta's first month won't be a rules mistake. It'll be players paying Empower costs at the wrong moment and feeling GOOD about it. Because Empower is designed to feel good. You pay, your unit levels up, dopamine. And the game quietly pockets the tempo you just donated. I'm calling it the Empower Tax the gap between paying when it's exciting and paying when it matters. Nobody's played these cards yet, so nobody has the habits. Which makes this the window to build the right one before the format builds the wrong one for you. Three mistakes, all printed right there in the card text — plus the Disempower half of the mechanic almost nobody has read closely yet. 💬 Discord:   / discord   🐦 X: https://x.com/RiftboundInside TIMESTAMPS: 0:00 A Prediction You Can Check In August 0:42 Empower In 90 Seconds (Two Ways In, One Rule) 1:36 Mistake 1: The Empower Tax 2:29 Mistake 2: Buying The Ad 3:20 Mistake 3: Ignoring The Trigger Empowers 4:09 The Disempower Layer (Where It Gets Spicy) 4:56 The Real Lesson 5:28 Comments
