How domains work

There are six domains and each legend belongs to two. Your deck can only carry cards from those two domains, and your 12 runes are divided between them. Many cards also ask for Power of a specific domain, which is paid by recycling a rune from that domain.

Fury

Direct aggression: units that hit early and damage that closes games.

Legends of Fury (16): Jinx, Kai'Sa, Darius, Volibear, Annie, Draven, Lucian, Rek'Sai, Rumble, Jhin, Pyke, Rengar, Vi, Akali, Renekton, Zed.

Calm

Defence and patience: protect your units and punish the attacker.

Legends of Calm (16): Lee Sin, Ahri, Yasuo, Master Yi (Wuju Master), Leona, Master Yi (Wuju Bladesman), Azir, Irelia, Jax, Ornn, Ivern, Lillia, Vex, Akali, Nasus, Shen.

How to combine

The pair of domains matters more than each one separately. Fury with Chaos gives the fastest decks; Calm with Mind, the most defensive; Corps with Fury, the largest units. In the caption listing you can filter by domain to see all combinations.
