Ahri and Heimerdinger on a leaked Radiance card list
A photo of a phone screen listing eleven card names nobody had seen before landed on r/riftboundtcg at 9pm on September 22, among them Ahri, Confident and Heimerdinger, Academy…, the latter cut off by the edge of the screen. The thread title says confirmed, but Riot has confirmed nothing: this is a screenshot of a document, not an official page. One detail does hold up, though: the list includes Starry-Eyed Songstress, the name of the Seraphine Legend that surfaced an hour earlier in a video.
The photoEleven lines on a phone screen
The picture posted by u/Dense_Collection7470 frames a phone showing a vertical list, one line per entry, with a single row highlighted in blue. A speaker icon and a play button sit over that row, as if an audio file were attached to the list; at the bottom of the screen sits an "Add comment" bar, the comment field of a shared document. The order is not alphabetical and follows no pattern you can read off it.
The legible names, top to bottom, are: Primordial Roar (cut off at the top), Amateur Demolitionist, Disposal Expert, Dune Devourer, Evelynn, Consuming, Starry-Eyed Songstress, Invigorating Bloom, Ahri, Confident, Pillaged Armory, Rousing Display and Heimerdinger, Academy…
| Name on the list | What exists today |
|---|---|
| Ahri, Confident | Ahri, Nine-Tailed Fox, the Origins Legend, plus two units |
| Heimerdinger, Academy… | Heimerdinger, Inventor, an Origins unit |
| Evelynn, Consuming | Evelynn, Entrancing, an Unleashed unit |
| Starry-Eyed Songstress | No Seraphine in any main set |
The checkNone of these names already exists
The simplest check is the useful one: we ran all eleven names against our own price archive, which holds 1,567 cards across Origins, Spiritforged, Unleashed, Vendetta, promos and special collections. Not one of them shows up. They are not reprints under a different title and they are not old cards shot badly: if the list is genuine, these belong to a set that has not been released.
The strongest corroboration comes from the same evening. An hour earlier, the image of a Seraphine Legend titled exactly Starry-Eyed Songstress had reached Reddit from two separate posters. Whoever photographed this list would have had to guess that title or to have seen it already. The other side deserves saying too: two names on the list, Ahri and Heimerdinger, do not appear on the Radiance lineup photo that has been circulating since the morning, where the champions listed were Ekko, Seraphine, Orianna, Jarvan IV (spelled "Jarvin IV" in the photo), Ziggs, Evelynn, Neeko, Mordekaiser and Taric.
The comments do more joking than reasoning. The poster himself adds "And Evelynn", while u/StellarDemon turns to who is missing: "Yet we still can't make a new Lee Sin so he does something useful".
Why it matters here. Official previews start on September 25 at the Los Angeles Regional Qualifier and then run daily into October: from that point every name on this list can be ticked off or dismissed within hours, with no need to trust a photo of a screen. Until then the usual rule holds for anyone in Italy buying, selling or planning a deck: a list of names is not a card, and a name tells you nothing about cost, text or domain.
