A new broken build rising.

So, i played toplane like I always do and i decided to pick jax. I saw enemy riven and really this matchup is medium difficulty. At loading screen i saw riven playing with kleptomancy which in theory would have made the game a lot easier.

How wrong i was.

Riven got me first blood because hecarim ganked me. Again not a big deal. She managed to destroy 3/5 turrent plating and after i returned in lane and I almost killed her she went back. Came back with a bf sword and 2 long swords. Much damage but it was not so hard to deal with. Again got ganked, died. She leaves and comes back with Ionian boots and essence reaver.

40% COOLDOWN IN 13 MINS (had the sorcery rune which gives 10% cd and more the excessive gets added to damage)

HER ULT WAS ON 30 SECONDS COOLDOWN!!! Her q was up all the time doing damage and knockup, she didnt use her stun because she didnt have to and her shield, that god damned 300 health shield.... she dominated the lane.

Afterwards she built a stormrazor, duskblade, black cleaber and lord dominiks.

Impossible to beat cooldowns and impossible to handle damage

PS. forgot to mention that due to kleptomancy she was getting extra gold and when they dived me and killed me she survived due to potion of iron.

What are your thoughts guys?

ran into this shit too,but im 10 steps ahead i figure out the only way to play top now is to pick Urgot whit either unsealed spellbook or dark harvest and secondary boneplate and overgrowth or shield bash

It's used in upper elo with success.

54% win rate with a 13.7% pick rate. And Spellbook has similar numbers.

Honestly, I believe the strength of Inspiration allows Riven early access to CDR items as well as CDR because of Future's Market and Cosmic Insight. Additionally, she's losing no gold on Future's Market because Inspiration provides free boots that also provides bonus MS.

If you did rush armor you would've destroyed her... I just took a look at your match history, you had item 3068 but rushed item 3748 item 3053 first, while your Riven was getting overfed. You just had to build item 3047 item 3057 item 1031 and she wouldn't have been able to come back... She had no pene aside of lord's dominik which she built at her last item. Your fault here, not "Riven is broken"

I see a lot of Riven taking klepto with the double proc with her passive and honestly, she get good gold but lose in damage so it's fair for me. I prefer to deal with a Klepto Riven than aftershock unkilleable Riven.
