Garen in Riftbound
Garen has 1 Legend, 1 Signature card and 3 champion units in the released Riftbound sets. Here is every one, what it does, and how they fit together in a Garen deck.
Garen's Legend
A Garen deck is led by Garen, Might of Demacia, which plays Body and Order. The Legend is the card that leads your deck: its tag names your champion and its two domains are the only ones your other cards can come from.
| Card | Set | Domain | Rules text |
|---|---|---|---|
| Garen, Might of Demacia | Proving Grounds | Body and Order | When you conquer, if you have 4+ units at that battlefield, draw 2. |
Text is as Riot's card gallery gives it, with icons in brackets: [1] is 1 Energy, [Any Power] is 1 Power of any domain and [Exhaust] means turn the card sideways. Every Riftbound Legend →
Garen's Signature cards
Garen has 1 Signature card. A Signature card carries one champion's tag, and only a deck whose Legend names that champion can play it. Your deck can hold at most 3 Signature cards in total, counting copies.
| Card | Set | Type | Domain | Cost | Rules text |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Decisive Strike | Proving Grounds | Signature spell | Body and Order | 5 | [Action] (Play on your turn or in showdowns.) Give friendly units +2 [Might] this turn. |
Garen's champion units
Garen has 3 champion units across 1 set. One copy of a champion unit sits out as your Chosen Champion, which must carry your Legend's tag, so these are the cards a Garen deck picks it from. Each has its own name, and the 3-copy limit counts each name apart.

Building aGaren deck
A Riftbound deck has 1 Legend, a main deck of at least 40 cards, 12 runes and 3 battlefields. Every card in the main deck has to come from your Legend's two domains, which decides which of Garen's cards each Legend can use.
| Legend | Domains | Chosen Champion options | Signature cards in its domains |
|---|---|---|---|
| Garen, Might of Demacia | Body and Order | Garen, Rugged, Garen, Commander, Garen, Might of Demacia | Decisive Strike |
A champion unit can be your Chosen Champion only if every domain it has is one of your Legend's two. Units of other champions can still go in your main deck as ordinary cards if their domains fit. The full deck-building rules → Published Riftbound decks →
