Welcome to Episode 35 of The Winning Point! This week, we talk about our new website, incoming merch, predictions about what decks we'll see in Top 8 for Bologna RQ, and more! 👇 Let us know in the comments: - Do you think there will be a surprise deck that ends up in Top 8? - Thoughts on the new website? - How will Cas and/or Blevins do in the tournament? 🎧 The Winning Point is your weekly Riftbound podcast, covering competitive play, event coverage, and everything that shapes the game — from global regionals to your local prerelease.
