Letter text: When you recycle a rune, you may exhaust me to play a Gold gear token exhausted. When one or more enemy units die, ready me.Your legend is in play from the first turn and cannot be removed, so this ability is the foundation on which the entire deck is built.
How to play Sivir
Paying Power recycles runes, and each recycled rune can be Gold. If you also kill a unit, the legend is ready again. Sivir, Mercenary gains Strength and mobility if you have spent 2 Power, Sivir, Ambitious converts leftover damage into damage to another unit, and On the Hunt prepares all your units.
Domains: Body and Chaos
Body
Big units and more resources: win on size on the board.
Chaos
Movement, discard and risky plays that break the opponent's plan.
A Sivir deck can only include cards from Body and Chaos; its 12 Runes are split between those two Domains.
