Join us weekly for some fun Riftbound action.

The domains are:

  • Fury (Red) –
    • Fury is about aggression, passion, and the thrill of conquering.
    • Fury decks often use damage-based removal, Accelerate (and other ways to enter ready), and rewards for conquering to achieve victory.
    • Generally, Fury cards have a harder time drawing lots of cards or killing units directly, especially units that stay out of combat in their base.
    • Examples of Fury from popular fiction are Conan the Barbarian, Blade, and Anakin Skywalker.
  • Calm (Green) –
    • Calm is about balance, meditation, and the peace of holding.
    • Calm decks often use defensive tricks, moving enemies, and negating interaction (like counterspells and stuns) to defend their holds and achieve victory.
    • Generally, Calm cards have a harder time being very aggressive or interacting without using their units.
    • Examples of Calm from popular fiction are Gandalf, Baloo, and Obi Wan Kenobi.
  • Mind (Blue) –
    • Mind is about innovation, outsmarting opponents, and the benefits of intelligence and curiosity.
    • Mind decks often use long-term planning, shrinking tricks, card draw, hidden and gear synergy to gain an advantage and achieve victory.
    • Generally, Mind cards have a harder time with moving units or having efficient units.
    • Examples of Mind from popular fiction are Sherlock Holmes, Curious George, and Yoda.
  • Body (Orange) –
    • Body is about physical superiority, agility, and connection to the wilds.
    • Body decks often ramp their resources, play efficient and high impact units, and dominate combats to achieve victory.
    • Generally, Body cards have a harder time with finding efficient card draw or noncombat spells.
    • Examples of Body from popular fiction are The Terminator, Juggernaut, and Chewbacca.
  • Chaos (Purple) –
    • Chaos is about unpredictability, rebellion, and trickiness.
    • Chaos decks often manipulate position and the trash, use hidden tricks, and filter toward the right cards to achieve victory.
    • Generally, Chaos cards have a harder time permanently eliminating a threat or giving permanent advantages to its units.
    • Examples of Chaos from popular fiction are V (for Vendetta), Spiderman, and Han Solo.
  • Order (Yellow) –
    • Order is about unity, community, and sacrifice for the greater good.
    • Order decks often generate many small units, gain effects on unit death, and kill units directly to achieve victory.
    • Generally, Order cards have a harder time dealing with smaller units and moving units.
    • Examples of Order from popular fiction are Superman, Cobra Commander, and Leia Organa.

One way to start building a deck is to start with a domain you think fits your playstyle (or just style, generally) and search for cool cards you might want to fit into a deck.
