Is riot even aware that Riven mains are cheesing by using Aa + Q + click on ground + repeat to achieve unfair levels of DPS at level 1 and onwards. What other champion has the ability to do this, is this not going to be fixed? It makes Riven overpowered if she wasnt already. Riven abusers can pretty much 100-0 players under tower if they get just a small lead and if they can't 100-0 you they can still continually poke you under tower and take no damage because of the shield. Maybe turret range needs to be increased so that this can't happen.

Anyone who doesnt believe this is a thing watch a youtube guide and open the practice tool and observe the difference between aa+q+repeat and aa+q+cog+repeat and you will see it makes a significant difference.

Wukong was nerfed into the ground because he had high burst with no counterplay but Riven is basically the same but she hasnt seen any nerfs and is currently God teir. Riven has very high gap closing and chasedown ability and her full combo without out ulti can one shot squishies and with ulti she can 2v1 quite reliably. If she doesnt get nerfed i can live with that but allowing her to have a hidden AA reset mechanic i just find this kind of disqusting.

Is riot aware that one of the absolute most famous champions that uses animation canceling uses animation canceling?

Gonna go out on a limb here and say yes, they're very, very aware of this, and they specifically balance riven around that.

What other champion has the ability to do this

a lot of champions have some form of animation canceling.

is this not going to be fixed?

no, there's nothing to fix.

Is this thread a troll thread? Riot intentionally made it this way.
