I made a list of the Riven's assets vs her weaknesses. I think it's pretty accurate, but I've maybe missed some points :

Riven's assets

  • High Ratios
  • Strong AA
  • Animation cancelling
  • Stun
  • Knock up
  • Gap close
  • Escape
  • Resource less
  • Low CD
  • Spammable kit
  • High Range
  • Damage mitigation
  • Wall Jump
  • Strong Early game
  • Strong mid game
  • Strong late game

weakness :

  • No global ultimate ?
  • Juggernaut Meta ?

Maybe Riot Should Replace her sword with a Swiss army knife, it would be more accurate.

She doesn't have a beer opener. She isn't a swiss army knife.

you should probably qualify "high range" as "high range aoe execute" you should also qualify "damage mitigation" as "AD-scaling damage mitigation) "Low CD" and "spammable kit" are the same thing

you also forgot "AD + range steroid on R" and "all animations cancellable but will still deal full damage"

- Stun stunning them for 0.75 seconds.

+Tencity = barely not stunned. Call a stun something with like 2+ seconds duration.

- High Range 2 skills with melee AoE and 1 short range dash + an ult with a pretty decent range. But 'high range' lol. High Range is someone like Xerath or Orianna.

- Damage mitigation Big word for a 1.5 seconds shield.

- Wall Jump Skill based small wall jump that is way less reliable than most wall-clearing movement abilities. Pretty reaching. Also removes the knockup and the damage of the third Q when used for mobility, so that point about knockup is void too in this situation.

Your shit is shit.

Also add that her personality makes most players feel sorry for her and thus raging in chat defending their champ
