Riftbound Bologna is now over, and with it, we are starting to see how the meta is shaping up global release. While we knew there were going to be lots of Dravens, the Top 8 certainly got spicy, with Irelia, Viktor and even a Miss Fortune making it into the top 8. Two Ezreals even made it to the top 8, which also inevitably won the whole tournament. Here’s a closer look at the Riftbound Bologna top 8 deck lists, based on what we’ve managed to gather from featured matchups on stream. Good to know Origins legends can play in a world of Spiritforge legends. These decks belong in a museum.
Riftbound Bologne Top 8 Deck Lists
Below are the deck lists we’ve managed to find from the Stream / what’s already been published online. These are the decks that made it to the top 8, and largely were on the features matchups. It should give you a look at the somewhat surprising usage of Ezreals who manage to win the tournament, alongside the very streamlined Draven and Irelia deck lists. The other interesting things are the Miss Fortune and the Viktor decks that managed to squeeze into the top 8, with the MF going on to the finals after beating the Viktor 2-1 in the semi-final. There’s hope for diversity yet.
