I don't even mind if Riven gets slight buffs, IF....

...her animation cancelling is removed.

I don't have a problem with Riven, personally. Her damage isn't what bothers me. Her mobility, though annoying, isn't what bothers me.

What bothers me is that her animation cancelling is ping-dependent. Correct me if I'm mistaken, but it's a part of her kit that's incredibly difficult to nearly impossible to pull off with higher ping which is common on the east coast. My roommate played Riven quite a bit and went from being able to successfully and consistently cancel animations at 75 ping to being entirely unable to do it at all at 100+ ping. Is he just an awful Riven? Maybe (probably). That still doesn't give reason for a champions kit to have a power available only to players with low ping.

Zed is skillshot dependent and can therefore be said to be ping dependent.

Lee Sin is as well.

But neither of these champions have their power physically gated by having slower internet. No, it isn't a "high skill cap." No, it isn't the sign of a good Riven player. It's the sign of a player who physically has a power advantage in League strictly by having a lower ping.

Are there any plans to address this?

Discuss.
