"5Enforcer Vi, please! Think of the people! The collateral damage! The PAPERWORK FOR INJURY CLAIMS!" - Insightful Investigator
"So! Looks like your buddies are all tuckered out. You wanna tell me where you hid the hextech, or d'ya wanna make friends with the wall, too?"
"I let my hands do the talking." - 5Vi
Notes[edit | edit source]
- For her
level-up condition, the damage of the 
Strike is the decisive factor, not Vi's 
Power during the strike.
- Striking a
tough enemy with 10 Power will not level up Vi. - Striking anything with 5 power and
8 The Dreadway on the board will level up Vi.
- Striking a
- Vi Level 2 with
Lifesteal benefits from her damaging effect.

RegionEvery card in Legends of Runeterra is sorted into a region based off a canon region of 
Runeterra. Cards within a region tend to share mechanics such as certain keywords and tend to synergise well with each other, and combining cards from different regions can lead to unique synergies and playstyles, with their own strengths and weaknesses. Game Modes and deckbuilding rules have specific restrictions on the number of regions that can be in a deck.
ManaMana is the primary resource used to play cards in Legends of Runeterra.
Challenger
unit Challenging another is it forcing the other to commit a 
block against it, even if it wouldn't be able to block it normally (eg. 
Can't Block). The player whose unit was Challenged cannot change what unit the Challenged unit is blocking through normal means, though it can be forced out of that position through effects such as Swapping and 
Stunning.Challenger: When declaring an
attack, with, the player can choose which enemies allies with Challenger will Challenge when the attack is committed, by dragging them into the blocking position.
| Type | Static | |
|---|---|---|
| Status | Positive | |
| Generatable | Yes | |
| Transferable | Yes | |
Tough
Tough effect is calculated after the 
Barrier effect. Negating all damage taken using Tough will still count as surviving damage. Technically, the attackers deal 1 less damage, for other purposes.
| Type | Static | |
|---|---|---|
| Status | Positive | |
| Generatable | Yes | |
| Transferable | Yes | |
PowerDictates the damage a unit does in combat, whether attacking or defending. This value can be changed through various cards temporarily or permanently, but each card has a default Power that it returns to if effects are removed.
Strike power (or 
Health if it's 
Formidable). A non- Formidable unit with 0 power does not strike when commanded to do so.
Strike effects occur when a unit strikes anything, 
Nexus or Unit.
The strike itself (and any effects that are triggered on the strike, including 
Nexus Strike on Overwhelm and Lifesteal) will resolve BEFORE any of the resulting effects (often "kill" or death effects such as 
Last Breath). However, strike effects do not 
trigger if the unit is 
obliterated after striking.
Level UpLevel Up is a keyword that causes a 
champion card, and all copies of them, to transform into an upgraded version of itself instantly, playing an animation, keeping all effects applied to it and damage taken and counting as the same unit. The vast majority of Champions gain improved stats (most often, an increase of 1 in both Power and Health) when they Level Up, in addition to new/improved effects and keywords.
Collectible cards always have a Rarity gem at the bottom. Most effects which activate 
Random can only create Collectible cards.
Burst spells resolve instantaneously after being committed.They can be committed at any time during the user's turn. They are added to the stack, but resolve instantaneously during the turn they are committed, so functionally aren't. They commit as soon as any required targets/choices are declared.
Fleeting
discard when the round ends.
Fleeting is removed from a unit when it is summoned.
| Type | Static | |
|---|---|---|
| Status | Negative | |
| Generatable | No | |
| Transferable | No | |
StrongestHighest Power, with ties broken by highest Health then highest Cost. If a tie cannot be resolved, cards will be targeted based on a hidden serialized id given to it upon being played.
ImpactWhile attacking, each time the unit with Impact strikes (by combat or with Strike effects, such as 2 Single Combat), it deals combat damage to the enemy Nexus equal to the Impact it owns, all at once.
Impact damage does NOT count as Nexus Strike, if the unit survived, Impact damage benefits from Lifesteal.
| Type | Static | |

| Notes |

Overwhelm attacking or when a spell with Overwhelm is dealing damage, if the dealing damage exceeds the blocker unit's Health, the excess damage goes to the Nexus and it is called Overwhelm damage. Tough reduces Overwhelm damage by 1. If the blocker is 
gone, all the damage goes through to the Nexus.
| Type | Static | |

Lifesteal Strike; Impact it has when survived; and its own non- Last Breath effects. Damaging Skills do not trigger Lifesteal's heal, despite the damage being considered being dealt by the unit itself for purpose of other effects such as Level Up.
Barrier and 
Blockade completely render Lifesteal ineffective, but the excess damage of Overwhelm still works normally (if the damage is greater than health). Tough will reduce the amount of health recovered by 1.

SeeA unit sees an action happen if it is on the board when it happens.
Unit card Champion or a 
Follower card. A unit card can be played by spending 
Mana equal to its cost, and fulfilling any additional conditions in the card text, which summons it. A unit has a Cost, Power and Health. A unit can also have additional card text that has its own effects, usually only when the unit is alive.Ally in card text refers to an allied unit. Enemy in card text refers to one of your opponent's units.
Spells
speed of a spell dictates when it can be played, and whether the opponent can respond.
The Spell Stack: Once one or more Fast or Slow spells have been played, it can be responded / reacted to by the opponent with one or more Fast or Burst spells. Fast spells played are added to the stack, where the most recent one placed is the first to resolve. Once the response is confirmed by pressing the Button, the opponent has a chance to react, and this continues until both players pass. Only 10 spells can be on the stack at once, and the 10th spell may only be Burst.
Skill spell-like card that can be committed by a unit. Goes on the Spell Stack like a Fast or Slow spell.
Skills are committed to enact a unit's card text in a way that can be reacted to. If card text creates a Skill, there will usually be an 
icon before the text to indicate this.
The text of skills is usually written as if it's on the unit itself, but they count as their own card. In particular, damage dealt by a skill is not dealt by the generating unit.
- Examples of this are when a unit is dragged into the Attack or Block position, or when a spell is dragged onto the board.
- When a spell is declared, then undeclared, it's placed in the rightmost position in the hand.
- When an attack or block is declared, then undeclared, the unit(s) are placed in the rightmost position on the board.
Death unit is reduced to 0 Health or is otherwise killed, it is removed from play.Effects that specifically kill a unit go through
Barrier.
Killed units are added to a list of units that have died in the game, which the game interacts with in various ways. Multiple copies of a unit can be on this list.
A unit killing another refers to it reducing another's Health to 0 with a Strike or with its own card text.
Skills generated by the text don't count as the same card and therefore do not count as killing for this purpose. See Skill.
