Riftbound Radiance Legends: Full List, Domains and Text

TL;DR: Radiance adds nine Legends: Ekko, Ziggs, Mordekaiser, Orianna, K'Sante, Riven, Seraphine, Evelynn and Jarvan IV. Each is a two-Domain card, no Domain pair repeats, and every Domain appears on exactly three of them. Eight are in Riot's card gallery as of October 9, 2026; Riven's The Exile has been previewed but is not listed yet. Each Legend has a matching Signature card, and the Core Rules cap a deck at 3 Signature cards.

Riftbound Radiance Legends: Quick Answer

Here is the full roster with Riot's set numbers. Eight rows come from the official gallery; the Riven row comes from a preview and is marked.

Key Takeaways

• Nine new Legends, numbered RAD-139 to RAD-155 on the odd numbers, each followed by its Signature card on the next even number.
• Every Domain appears on exactly three Legends, and all nine Domain pairs are different.
• None of the nine champions had a Legend in Riot's gallery before Radiance. The 49 earlier Legends cover other champions.
• Gear is the loudest theme: Ziggs makes Bomb tokens, Orianna turns gear into units, Jarvan IV moves units when you play [Deploy] gear, and Mordekaiser's Legend adds Power only for units or gear.
• Riven's Legend text comes from a preview and can still change before Riot lists it.

Overview: What a Legend Decides in Riftbound

Your Legend is more than a face for the deck. Riftbound's Core Rules say every deck needs a Champion Legend, placed in the Legend Zone at the start of the game, and that its Domains set the deck's Domain Identity. Cards in your deck have to fit that identity, so a Fury / Mind Legend like Ekko locks you into Fury and Mind cards.

The Legend also fixes your Chosen Champion. That unit has to carry the Champion tag that matches your Legend, which is why each Radiance Legend arrives with one or two champion units of the same name. Signature cards work the same way: the rules allow a total of 3 Signature cards, and all of them need your Legend's Champion tag.

Riot's Radiance overview confirms the set has nine new Legends, each also printed as an Overnumbered variant with an artist's signature. If the Domain names are still new to you, our Riftbound Domains explainer covers what each color does before you pick a pair.

All 9 Radiance Legends, One by One

Ekko, Boy Who Shattered Time (Fury / Mind)

Ekko's Legend uses [Empower]: pay 1 Energy and exhaust him to Empower him, if he is not Empowered already. Later, you Disempower him and exhaust him to make the next unit you play this turn cost 2 Energy and one Power less, but that unit gets "Kill me at end of turn." Ekko has two champion units in the set, a Fury Epic (RAD-021) that enters ready and a Mind Rare (RAD-061) with [Ganking]. His Signature spell, Chronobreak, lets you pay any amount of Power, banish that many of your units, then replay each one for free.

Ziggs, Hexplosives Expert (Fury / Chaos)

For 1 Energy plus one Power and an exhaust, Ziggs plays a Bomb gear token to a battlefield. The token has [Deploy], and when it dies it deals 2 to an enemy there and kills your other Bombs there. His Fury champion unit (RAD-023) drops a Bomb when played and gives your gear abilities 1 Bonus Damage. The Signature spell Hexplosive Minefield kills your Bombs and replays the same number on one battlefield at end of turn.

Mordekaiser, Iron Revenant (Fury / Order)

Mordekaiser's Legend is a [Reaction] ability: banish a unit or gear from your trash and exhaust him to add one Power of any Domain, spendable only on units or gear. His Order champion unit (RAD-137) can discard 1 to kill a unit or gear when played or when attacking. Realm of Death, his Signature spell, gives an enemy unit -2 Might and a friendly unit +2 Might, then makes them deal damage to each other.

Orianna, Lady of Clockwork (Calm / Mind)

At the start of your Main Phase, Orianna lets you pay 1 Energy to choose a friendly gear. It becomes a unit with Might equal to its Energy cost until you pick another gear. Her Signature card is a gear, The Ball, which has [Deploy] and [Ganking] and either draws 1 or deals 2 to enemy units when you play or move it.

K'Sante, Pride of Nazumah (Calm / Body)

K'Sante's Legend costs 1 Energy and an exhaust: a friendly unit gets [Assault] equal to its [Shield] this turn. Both of his champion units carry Shield, and the Signature spell Ntofo Strikes gives a unit [Shield 2], then deals damage equal to its Shield to an enemy unit.

Riven, The Exile (Calm / Chaos, preview)

Riven's Legend reads "Units you play to battlefields you control enter ready," according to the preview card page on riftbound.org, which flags that the text can still change. The rest of her package is already official: a Calm champion unit (RAD-043) and a Chaos one (RAD-114) in Riot's gallery, plus the Calm / Chaos Signature gear Blade of the Exile, which equips by paying one Power or exhausting a friendly unit.

Seraphine, Starry-Eyed Songstress (Mind / Order)

Seraphine lowers spell costs: as an additional cost to play a spell, you may exhaust her and three friendly units to reduce its cost by 2 Energy. Her Order champion unit (RAD-138) makes a 1-Might Recruit token when played or exhausted, which feeds that cost. Encore, her Signature spell, lets you choose two of four modes, from dealing 2 to a unit to making two Recruit tokens.

Evelynn, Agony's Embrace (Body / Chaos)

Once each turn, when you play a card from face down, Evelynn draws 1, then discards 1 if it is not your turn. Her Body champion unit (RAD-090) has [Ambush] and readies when you play a card from face down; the Chaos one (RAD-109) can score a point when it holds with a facedown card at that battlefield. Last Caress, the Signature [Reaction] spell, lets your next unit go to any battlefield and buffs it.

Jarvan IV, Exemplar of Demacia (Body / Order)

When you play a gear with [Deploy], Jarvan IV's Legend lets you exhaust him and pay one Power to move a friendly unit to that battlefield. His Body champion unit (RAD-091) gives your [Deploy] gear [Action], and his Signature gear, Demacian Standard, is itself a [Deploy] card that gives an attacking unit +2 Might.

Analysis: Patterns Across the Riftbound Radiance Legends

The Domain spread is perfectly even. Count the Domains in the table and each of the six shows up three times: Fury on Ekko, Ziggs and Mordekaiser; Calm on Orianna, K'Sante and Riven; Mind on Ekko, Orianna and Seraphine; Body on K'Sante, Evelynn and Jarvan IV; Chaos on Ziggs, Riven and Evelynn; Order on Mordekaiser, Seraphine and Jarvan IV. Out of the 15 possible Domain pairs, Radiance uses nine, with no repeats. Whatever Domain you like, three new Legends use it.

All nine are first-time Legends. Riot's card gallery lists 49 Legends from the sets before Radiance, from Ahri to Zed, and none of them is Ekko, Ziggs, Mordekaiser, Orianna, K'Sante, Riven, Seraphine, Evelynn or Jarvan IV. That matters for collectors and for anyone hoping to upgrade an older deck: none of these Legends replaces a Legend you already own.

Gear carries the set's new mechanics. Riot's overview introduces [Deploy], Equipment Units and Bomb tokens, and four Legends lean on gear directly. Ziggs makes Bombs, Orianna animates gear, Jarvan IV rewards [Deploy], and Mordekaiser's Legend Power can only be spent on units or gear. Riven's Signature card is an Equipment gear too.

Neeko can borrow them. The colorless Neeko (RAD-167) lets you choose three other Legends at deckbuilding and add one to your Legend Zone while she is on the board. That opens a door for these new Legend abilities to show up in decks built around a different Legend.

For a creator's view, Zelonius posted a tier list of the new Legends on October 8 with a chapter for each of the nine, Riven included. Early community reaction has focused on the support cards as much as the Legends. After Riot's October 2 reveals, which included Realm of Death, one r/Riftbound reply read: "Wow the Mordekaiser spell is better than I was expecting. That's like… genuinely playable." (u/Gothic_Goblin_GF on r/Riftbound) After the October 5 reveals, the Fury Ekko unit drew a bolder claim: "Red ekko is gonna steal alot of games" (u/Cool-Fan-1950 on r/Riftbound).

Our take

We have not played with any Radiance Legend yet, and nobody outside early preview content has either, so this list does not rank them. What the card text does show is where the deckbuilding work will be. Ekko, Ziggs and Mordekaiser all share Fury, so Fury players get the widest new choice. The gear Legends (Ziggs, Orianna, Jarvan IV) depend on how many good [Deploy] and gear cards the full set holds, which we will only know once the gallery is complete. Seraphine and Evelynn ask the most from their decks: three exhausted units for one cheaper spell, or a steady supply of facedown cards.

If you are picking a Legend for a Pre-Rift, pick the Domain pair you enjoy first, then read the Legend text with your kit's cards in front of you. We will check Riven's Legend text against Riot's gallery once it is listed and update this page if it changes.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many new Legends are in Riftbound Radiance? Nine. Riot's Radiance overview says the set's nine new Legends each get an Overnumbered variant. As of October 9, 2026, eight of them are in Riot's official card gallery and the ninth, Riven's The Exile (RAD-149), has been shown in a preview but not yet added to the gallery.

Who are the nine Riftbound Radiance Legends? Ekko (Boy Who Shattered Time), Ziggs (Hexplosives Expert), Mordekaiser (Iron Revenant), Orianna (Lady of Clockwork), K'Sante (Pride of Nazumah), Riven (The Exile), Seraphine (Starry-Eyed Songstress), Evelynn (Agony's Embrace) and Jarvan IV (Exemplar of Demacia). Eight are already in Riot's card gallery, and Riven's Legend is the one still waiting for an official listing.

What Domains do the Radiance Legends use? Every Legend is a two-Domain card, and no pair repeats. Fury, Calm, Mind, Body, Chaos and Order each appear on exactly three of the nine Legends, so no Domain is left out of the new Legend pool. Fury, for example, is on Ekko, Ziggs and Mordekaiser.

Do the Radiance Legends have Signature cards? Yes. Each Legend sits next to a Signature card in the set numbering, for example Chronobreak for Ekko, The Ball for Orianna and Blade of the Exile for Riven. The Core Rules allow up to 3 Signature cards in a deck, and they must share the Champion tag of your Legend.

Is the Riven Legend text final? Not officially. The Exile was shown in a preview and riftbound.org lists it as not yet in Riot's card gallery, with the warning that the text can still change before Riot lists it. Riot's preview page says the gallery is updated daily at 5pm PT with the previous day's reveals.
