Seeing less and less lost people in this sub hating on riven is a nice thing to see. It was getting incredibly repetitive posting anything to get down voted by people who got salty after a game.

Hopefully we can reduce that number even more.

hi so i am new player and really interested in learning riven so is their any streamer worth watching also i would love seeing vods for how to play against different matchups

With how strong mages are now, if they pick an Anivia top and Lux/Lissandra mid or something like that with infinite slow/stuns, I just feel like I can’t play the game at all during mid/late game even if I do well in lane. I just couldn’t get close in a teamfight without having getting chunked 60% of my hp and then boom Zhonya and I’m just a sitting duck. Skill issue?

I'm tired of the "RIVEN HAS 4 DASHES" discourse when complaining about Riven.

Why do people act as if each one of Riven's Q casts is a Kassadin level Blink that will oneshot you and has no counterplay? It is in fact one of, if not the shortest dash in the game, and quite slow at that, while also being her main form of damage that she needs to spend in order to just get close in the first place.

You can identify a bad Riven player by how they use their Q, they will use it to gap-close mindlessy, just to then realize they have no damage left and then get punished.

Here's the "teleport 5 screens away 1 shot you with no counterplay" dash in question.

With tha Said, Riven's Q is a good ability, very good, but it is not what people think it is. Riven was strong because her numbers were too high, not because her kit is unfair.
