Order (Yellow) in Riftbound
Order is Riftbound's yellow domain. It goes wide with Recruit tokens, gets value when its units die through Deathknell, and has the game's most direct removal: spells that kill a unit outright. It has trouble with an opponent who goes wide too.
Order is yellow, one of Riftbound's six domains. Goes wide and kills. Recruit tokens, Deathknell value when units die, and the most cards that kill a unit outright.
Riot's theme for it: "unity, community, and sacrifice for the greater good." As of November 2026, 20 of the game's 58 Legends have Order, and any of them can lead a deck that plays its cards.
How Order Plays
Order fills the board. It makes the most tokens, mostly 1 Might Recruits, from units such as Faithful Manufactor that bring one along, and spreads them across battlefields. Many small units are hard to answer one at a time and give Order more places to score.
It turns losing units into value. About half of the Deathknell cards are Order, so its units leave something behind when they die, and some Order cards ask you to kill your own units on purpose to pay a cost. Karthus, Eternal makes every Deathknell trigger twice.
Order also has the game's cleanest removal. It has more cards that kill a unit than any other domain, including Vengeance (kill a unit), and kill effects ignore Might, which damage and -Might do not. What it struggles with is an opponent's many small units, since its answers mostly handle one unit at a time, and like Mind it has few ways to move its own.
How domains and domain identity work →What It Does Well, and What It Doesn't
Strengths
- The most cards that kill a unit outright, regardless of its Might.
- Wide boards of Recruit tokens.
- Deathknell value whenever its units die.
Weaknesses
- Trouble with an opponent's many small units; its removal handles one at a time.
- Few ways to move its units.
- Tokens are small, so a wide board can lose to one big blocker.
These start from what Riot's Deckbuilding Primer says Order is good and bad at. The other domain in your pair, and your Legend, can cover a weakness: a Legend that draws cards helps a domain that doesn't.
Order by the Numbers
Counted from the 953 main-set cards from Proving Grounds and Origins through Radiance as of November 2026, without Legends, battlefields, runes and tokens, one per name. A card with two domains counts for both.
The regions and types that show up most on Order cards: Demacia above all, then Noxus, Ionia, Piltover, the Freljord and Mount Targon. Of its 169 cards, 149 have only Order and fit any deck whose Legend has it; the other 20 are two-domain cards, which need a Legend with both, and 20 of those are Signature cards tied to one champion.
Cards That Show What Order Does
Each has only Order, so it fits any Order deck. They show the domain's style, not a ranking of its best cards.
Faithful Manufactor
OGN-211/298
Faithful Manufactor: comes with a Recruit token
Vengeance
OGN-229/298
Vengeance: kill a unit
Machine Evangel
OGN-239/298
Machine Evangel: Deathknell for three Recruits
Karthus, Eternal
OGN-236/298
Karthus, Eternal: Deathknell triggers twice
- Faithful Manufactor: A 3-cost unit that plays a 1 Might Recruit token alongside itself, two bodies for one card.
- Vengeance: Kills any unit for 4 Energy, whatever its Might.
- Machine Evangel: When it dies, it plays three 1 Might Recruit tokens into your base, so trading it away grows your board.
- Karthus, Eternal: A champion unit that makes every Deathknell effect you control trigger an additional time.
Order Legends
Your Champion Legend sets your deck's two domains, so a Order deck starts with one of these 20. Below is the first Legend printed in each Order pair, not a ranking; the table lists all of them.
