EVERY BODY CARD RANKED | Spiritforged Set Review Part 4

The Body Domain set review dives deep into Riftbound’s most straightforward — yet deceptively powerful — domain, focused on board presence, combat efficiency, and relentless pressure. In this video, we break down every Body Domain card, discussing where each one fits, what decks want them, and which tools are core inclusions versus situational role-players. Efficient stat sticks, combat tricks, and pressure-oriented units define the domain, while standout cards highlight how Body decks can quickly snowball small advantages into overwhelming battlefield control. We take a close look at how Body supports aggressive and midrange strategies, how it pairs with other domains to reinforce tempo-driven game plans, and which cards are most likely to shape early tournament metas. Whether you’re looking to curve out with efficient attackers, dominate combat phases, or force opponents into awkward defensive positions, this review breaks down what matters — and what can safely be skipped. 📺 This video is part of a 7-part review series, covering every card in Spiritforged — be sure to check out the rest of the playlist for full set coverage.

Calm continues to solidify its identity as a control-leaning, value-oriented domain, featuring standout cards like Not So Fast, Lonely Poro, Stellacorn Herder, and powerful gear options such as Heart of Dark Ice and Guardian Angel.
