Legends of Runeterra Best Starter Decks

LoR Decks and Deck Codes for New Players

Legends of Runeterra decks cover which region you should level up in to collect the cards you're missing, plus the codes you can use to import the decks straight into your collection.

Spider Swarm Deck

The Spider Swarm deck is the easiest of all these decks, because once you finish the tutorials and set out on your journey, you're required to pick it as one of your three starting decks. When playing the Spider Swarm deck, Elise gives you the resources to damage the opponent's minions with a mix of low-cost Noxus and Shadow Isles spiders and spells. On top of that, you'll want to quickly transform into her Spider Queen form, sacrifice some minions to summon Vilemaw, and buff up your army of spiders.

Zed and Katarina Deck

The hard part of this deck will be getting your hands on multiple copies of Katarina. That said, you'll start out with two Zeds from your starter decks, so as long as you level up the Noxus region in your games, you can build up resources by leveling up. This deck's primary goal is to find Katarina early, level her up into her leveled form, and get as much value as possible out of her Recall and rally abilities. Every time Katarina attacks, you can send her back to your deck. If you call her back out, she gains an attack token and can strike the opponent again.

Garen Demacia Elites Deck

When you put together Legends of Runeterra's Demacia Elite cards correctly, their combined traits work heavily in your favor. Battlesmiths, Laurent Blademasters and Vanguard Bannermen all give extra attack and health to your summoned units. Garen and Judgment let you use an attacker to strike down multiple enemies at once.

Freljord Ionia Buff Deck

This deck's goal is to power up cards like Averosan Hearthguard, Mentor, Omen Hawk and Elixir of Iron. On top of that, using Braum and Stalking Wolf's Challenger abilities to pull opposing blockers, and using Deny and Will of Ionia to counter spells and keep your best cards safe from harm, will keep the opponent's attempts to block you firmly under control. For this deck, you'll want to quickly gather a handful of key cards and focus Freljord around Braum.
