DSG Prismaticism won the Riftbound Regional Qualifier in Los Angeles with Rengar, Pridestalker, beating Xeno’s Irelia 2-1 in the final. It was the last Regional Qualifier of 2026, and Riot’s Top Decks report calls it DSG Prismaticism’s second RQ win.

The event ran September 25 to 27 at the Los Angeles Convention Center, with Regional Championship invitations and $25,000 in prizing on the line. The field was 2,165 players, with 13 rounds of Swiss before the Top 8. DSG Prismaticism went 14-0-2, the only record without a loss in the Top 32.

Records include the Top 8 matches. Players knocked out in the same round are listed in the order of the organizer’s final standings.

Irelia and Azir each put two players into the Top 8. Team MICE had two players there as well: Squirtle on Azir in third and TheManLand on Ornn in eighth.

All 36 decklists

Riot published all eight Top 8 lists on September 30, plus a Best-Of list for 33 Legends: the highest finisher with each one. Five Top 8 players are in both sections, so there are 36 different lists. Every one is on Riftwatch, and the 15 that finished in the Top 32 are linked from their rows in the final standings.

The Best-Of lists reach deep into the field. DSG Prismaticism’s teammate, DSG AwesumRosum, took the Kennen Best-Of in 13th, and the lowest finish among the 36 is 567th.

The first RQ after the September bans

This was the first Regional Qualifier since Riot’s September ban list update took effect on September 18, adding Stacked Deck and Ekko, Recurrent to the Standard and 2v2 Constructed ban lists. None of the 36 lists play either card. What the Stacked Deck and Ekko bans mean covers the change.
