About me

I’m Austin Downum, an Oklahoma-based Riftbound player and creator. As NovaRiftbound, I make deck guides, break down tournament matches, and cover competitive play. I also run community tournaments and help lead Team NBC.

I also lead Marketing at TopDeck.gg, where I work on The Weekly TopDeck newsletter, partnerships, and getting tournament tools into the hands of organizers. My day job is in healthcare IT as a Senior Systems Engineer, working on cloud identity, security, and automation.
