Now I Know I will get downvoted, since apparently Riven haters are like I hate Riven just cus.

Guess What?

Let's compare Riven to other top top laners.

1.Irelia . Hmm, a dash, true damage, and a stun or 60% slow, with a ult 2.MonkeyKing, Oh no! A dash, a short-mid ranged attack, and a knockup! But even more, A decoy and invis so he can be safe 3.Shen A dash, an sheild and a attack, and his ult makes him perfect for splitpushing 4.Malphite An sheild, A slow, additional damage, an knock-up, and reduced attack speed 5.Nasus Life steal, bonus damage, a slow, damage over time, and his R

But Lets see about riven Her Bonus attack damage doesn't seem bad Mobility But let's see Her combo does about 1k+ damage (Maybe worse then Ekko 's R) Animation canceling is only for skilled players And all her damage relies on physical damage (Which can get countered by armor) Riven sucks against teamfights Riven can't have armor, or else she'll lose a whole bunch of attack damage Riven's stun can easily be countered by item 3140 Riven's shield is puny compared to Malphite Don't forget Riven is hard to play.

Who counters Riven? Ranged slows counter riven. Malphites tire is one, and there are about 50 champs that slow in LoL Dashes counter riven Mobility, hmm? DrMundo spam Q all day, DrMundo has summoner 6 orsummoner 4, DrMundo hasitem 3140, DrMundo has support soraka. GG RIP Riven

So bottom line is... Riven can only excel in 1v1, and even there, she can get countered

If anyone can come up with a good reason why riven is OP Kudos for you (Note: I'm not a riven main, I didn't even buy riven, so plz no excuses about "Riven mains") Check op.gg or something else.

(Realistically, I hate 1% of rivens)

I cant stand the constant implied dichotomy of whether something s "OP" or not.

People hate Riven Because she has zero resource cost, and very low cooldowns combined with a ton of mobility, more cc than anything else in her class. and a shield that scales with AD.
