Best Body Cards in Riftbound TCG Unleashed: Top Cards and Best Picks

The Riftbound TCG's Unleashed set introduced cards across every domain. Each domain supports different types of strategies and interactions. So, what are the best Body cards from Unleashed, and which ones are worth including in your main deck?

What Does the Body Domain Focus On?

Body is a domain focused on physical strength, efficiency, and board dominance. Body decks often accelerate resources, deploy high-impact units, and win through strong combat performance and battlefield control. In return, Body generally has fewer options for consistent card draw or non-combat interaction.

Best Body Cards in Riftbound TCG Unleashed

The Body domain received plenty of good cards in Unleashed. These are the Body cards from the set to consider adding to your main deck.

Repulse

Repulse is a new reaction spell that lets you counter an enemy spell or ability. It's limited to friendly units at a battlefield and only if the spell you want to counter only targets the unit you want to save. This isn't as good as the Calm domain's counterspells, but it's still worth including in Body decks that have limited protection against destruction-based removal or bounce spells.

Rengar - Trophy Hunter

Rengar - Trophy Hunter is one of the many standout units from Unleashed. It has Ambush, which lets you cast it as a reaction during showdowns. This can swing combats into your favor by giving you a 6 might unit to contest a battlefield.

Rengar - Trophy Hunter also has an additional ability that lets you play it to battlefields where you have no units. This turns it into a reaction speed removal spell against weaker units.

Elder Dragon

The Elder Dragon is one of the most powerful Body units from Riftbound's Unleashed set. It has a steep energy and power cost but its powerful abilities justify it. This unit makes any amount of damage dealt enough to kill enemy units. It also lets you choose up to one enemy unit at each location to destroy them when it enters.

The Elder Dragon is a staple in Dazzling Aurora decks, which are built to cheat this powerful card into play. Once this card enters play, it can singlehandedly seize full control over a game. It turns even your smallest units into potent threats that can trade up against your opponent's mightier units.

The Riftbound TCG's Unleashed set includes a wide range of cards across every domain, each offering different tools and strategies for deckbuilding. The strongest options often depend on how you want to build your deck and what synergies you prioritize. As the meta evolves, more Body cards from Unleashed may also rise in relevance.
