i was testing out how some of her interactions work and some interesting stuff happend

  1. her auto attacks focus ONLY on the last target her q hit. so regardless of where you use your r e or w. she will run and start attacking your q target. no need to reclick. ((if your q hits a different target after the first. it is who you last hit with it. so if you q X then q Y then q Z. you will only attack z till you target someone else))

  2. she actually has absurd synergy with crit chance. with 450ish ad her q does only around 250-300 dmg.. while her basic attacks will crit for upwards of 800-1100 depending on fervor stacks and passive stacks.

  3. attack speed runes seem almost necessary to fix her strange attack delays. tho w will ALWAYS lock your auto attack for about a full second.

  4. best initiation combo seems to be ewq. the animation of both her w and q is canceled and you dont get that strange hitch in her basic attacks after the w, because you canceled it with q.

.5. q and w will NOT draw minion agro. so you can qqq and e away for free minor dmg to your enemy and get no minion agro. tho it is honestly a waste of your q and will push the lane

You can e auto w q if you time it correctly and e flash w q if you time it correctly. I've got many players off guard by e flash w q auto, it actually does a huge amount of damage in a extremely short amount of time. E R2 W Q is my favorite combo also e r2 flash w q it doesn't cancel the q but if you can get the q to be the last q it really is a helpful engage in teamfights. I really love non-toxic Riven related posts on the boards since Im a onetrick Riven main (300k mastery points over 2 accounts)

when i played riven the other day my assertion of her was that

E W Q auto Q auto Q

and

R E auto Q W Q auto Q auto R

are my preferred combos.

item 3046 item 3812 item 3508 item 3078item 3111 item 3036

was the items i tended to lean towards

and looking back i probably should have gone with the fervor keystone instead of the one i did go with. i wonder if it's worth it to play with a resolve tree build?
