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.
Equipment

RuneterraUnlike other regions, Runeterra cards have unique deckbuilding rules, dictated by the origins of the cards in it, with only one card from Runeterra able to be put into the deck.
Champions Unit.
A champion is able to 
Level Up to transform it and every other allied copy of it in the game that could ever exist into a new card instantly, keeping all effects applied to it and damage taken, which has its own interactions as well. While there is an allied champion alive, any copies of it in hand are instead a Champion Spell.
FollowersFollowers are a type of unit card in Legends of Runeterra, with numerous cards that only interact with them.
Landmarks Legends of Runeterra that take up a space on the board, like units, but can't interact with the same mechanics as units - for example they can't Attack or 
Block (See also: 
Immobile), don't have Health or 
Power, and can't 
strike.Text that can affect Landmarks will explicitly refer to them.
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.
Collectable cards from 
Runeterra have a specified unique Origin card (or 'Origin') associated with them. Each distinct card in the deck with an Origin counts as one of the deck's regions. The Origin of these cards allows specific cards to be added to the deck regardless of their region.
Origins can also have an effect that is active from the start of the game and throughout, if there is a card with them in the deck at the start of the game
