@Riot, thoughts about riven buffs?

Her pick + winrate has been dropping steadly to the point where shes at 47% wr and even the challenger riven otps are either dropping to masters/d1 or are just playing something else because riven is dogshit right now, doesnt help almost every other top laner in the game keeps getting buffed while shes ignored, its the worst thing when you tune to adrian stream and hes playing camille or fiora every game, then you tune to viper and hes playing fking sion lmao.

It just feels like she does no damage anymore and cant lane against anything that isnt braindead anymore, give her passive some innate arm pen so she isnt hard countered by a cloth armor or something, maybe make her ult give a passive that grants her flat AD so her all ins are more deadly again (resolve tree on everyone + bone plating makes her useless).

The worse she is, the less Riven mains there are, which means less of them on my team feeding all game

But if she was actually good the riven mains on your team would carry you instead?

Never thought about that?

In my experience: 3/4 of the time Riven "mains" feed. Of the ones that don't feed, half of them get fed. Of the ones that get fed, more than half lack even the most basic fundamental concepts of macro and throw their lead going for dank plays.

The odds that a Riven on my team will not be a detriment are very low. The only thing I have to gain from more people playing Riven is the tears I can harvest picking Renekton into them.

Thats because shes shit tier right now, if she was good they wouldnt feed as much.

Nah from what I've seen how strong she is only impacts her popularity not the brain cells (or lack thereof) of those picking her

I do agree I wanted I picked up riven back in s6 when she was god but now I never play her cause am afraid of losing Lp it's pretty damn depressing especially with how fun her kit is....
