The rules themselves are only part of the equation. The practical way these rules will be brought to life is through Riftbound’s forthcoming dedicated and astute judges.
What is a Judge?
In Riftbound, judges are tournament officials who will be experts on both the Core and Tournament rules, making sure all players receive a fair and enjoyable experience at any Riftbound event.
While judges have the crucial role of enforcing the rules and making sure penalties are applied appropriately and fairly, they will also act as advocates for learning and understanding of the rules. Judges aren't merely tasked with facilitating tournament play--they will also serve to promote their local communities. This includes helping new players get a better understanding of the rules, while also promoting more casual play outside of a tournament setting.
How do I become a Judge?
Apply to become an official judge and access judge resources via your Riftbound Play Network Account Management dashboard.
You can now take the Riftbound Judge Level 1 Authorization exam and apply to be a judge. Make sure to brush up on the Core Rules!
