Riftbound · Domain Pair
Body and Order in Riftbound
Body and Order fills the board with units, big ones from Body and many from Order. As of October 2026 it is tied for the most Legends of any pair, six, and it is the pair of Garen, a Proving Grounds Legend.
Body and Order is Body (orange) with Order (yellow). The biggest boards in the game, with six Legends including Garen and Sett. As of October 2026 it has 6 Legends: Garen, Might of Demacia, Sett, The Boss, Fiora, Grand Duelist, Poppy, Keeper of the Hammer, Ambessa, Matriarch of War and Jarvan IV, Exemplar of Demacia.
How Body and Order plays
Body makes units large and Order makes them many. Body's extra runes pay for high-Might units, Order adds small units and kill spells, and between them the deck tends to have more on the board than the opponent. It wins by taking battlefields with numbers and size.
The Legends reward a big board. Garen, Might of Demacia draws 2 when you conquer with 4 or more units there. Sett, The Boss saves a buffed unit from dying, and Fiora, Grand Duelist channels a rune when a unit becomes Mighty. Poppy, Keeper of the Hammer gains XP when you hold and spends it on card draw. Ambessa, Matriarch of War readies a unit, and Radiance's Jarvan IV, Exemplar of Demacia moves a unit to a battlefield where you play a Deploy gear.
What it does well, and what it doesn't
Strengths
- Big and wide boards at once.
- Kill spells from Order, which Body lacks on its own.
- Six Legends as of October 2026, more choice than most pairs.
Weaknesses
- Little card draw from Body; Garen and Poppy are the main exceptions.
- Few ways to move units, since Order lists it as a weakness.
- Body has few spells that work outside combat.
These start from what Riot's Deckbuilding Primer says each domain is good and bad at, which the guide to Riftbound's domains covers in full. A pair's Legend can shift them: a Legend that draws cards helps a pair whose domains don't.
The Body and OrderLegends
As of October 2026, 6 Legends have exactly these two domains. Each one sets the same card pool, but their abilities point the deck at different plans.
Garen, Might of Demacia
OGS-023/024
When you conquer with 4 or more units at that battlefield, draw 2. From Proving Grounds.
Sett, The Boss
OGN-269/298
When a buffed unit would die, spend its buff to recall it instead; readies when you conquer.
Fiora, Grand Duelist
SFD-205/221
When one of your units becomes Mighty, channel 1 rune exhausted.
Poppy, Keeper of the Hammer
UNL-203/219

Empowered when you empower something else; spend it to ready a unit.
Jarvan IV, Exemplar of Demacia
RAD-155/167

Every Riftbound Legend lists all of them by domain pair, with each one's ability and price.
Body and Order Signature cards
Every two-domain Body and Order card printed so far is a Signature card. Each carries one champion's tag, so it only goes in a deck whose Legend has that tag, and a deck can hold at most 3 Signature cards in total. Riftbound Signature cards explains the rule.

Cards from each domain
Most of a Body and Order deck is single-domain cards, from either half. These show what each half brings: the first two are Body, the last two Order.
Building a Body and Order deck
Start with the Legend, since it decides the plan, then fill the main deck from both domains and split your 12 runes between Body and Order. A reasonable starting point is to count the Body and Order symbols in your costs and give more runes to the domain with more of them.
The guide to building a Riftbound deck covers the full rules. TurnZero HQ's Deck Lab marks a deck Not legal if a card or rune is outside your Legend's domains, and the decks players have published are at Riftbound decks, searchable by deck name or by a card in the deck.
