Can we change the name of Riven's E?

Because it's primary purpose has always been and will always be disengage and dodging attacks. As well as quick repositioning. I'm tired of "Hur dur uses valor to run away" being used as a balance and design argument. Because you know. Irl if you dodge an attack or back out of a strike to setup the next one. You are a coward. Not a good fighter. A coward.

Riven always has been and always will be based around positioning and consistantly bouncing in and out of fights. She isn't Kled. So the functionality isn't changing. I guess the name should.

On a side note, almost every shield in the game has a secondary effect and almost every dash in the game does damage or includes utility. Riven's dash includes a shield and her shield includes a dash. That is normal.

wut Noted, I'll try to get hit more when sparring, because dodging or blocking things is cowardly.

Ki barrier makes the most sense.

My vote's on Ki barrier but I would put forward my own spin on that and say "Ki Rush" sounds cool, since she rushes forward in a target direction.
