Have your mid laner and jungler and maybe support (all with knock-ups) grab her then ult her... by this time she will have killed the mid and jungler and is now chasing the support. This allows you to safely walk away and start farming scuttle crab. :D

ahhhh then just insert top laner instead of mid for my post. everyone was saying top so i followed, my b.

Well, you can beat Riv with Yas if you poke and kite and land that ulti. Only go in if you can kill her and her Q and W are on cd. She is a stupidly strong duelist with that hard cc and shield (which scales off ad for some reason). Best thing is early ganks from jungler to help you snowball. Otherwise she will rreeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeek havoc on everything.

I did. I actually won the lane. Went 2/0 in lane but dear god whenever she found me 2 inches away from tower I'd lose 99% of my health instantly with no way to play against it. I just kept catching her being complacent with spamming QEW for waveclear at times. Even then I HAD to kill her in 1 combo or she'd come right back and 100-0 me. I literally sat under tower all game and only took CS that I could reach from under tower with Q.

I ended up losing the game cuz Riven would see me and instadunk lol. The fact they had a Vi that liked to ult me didn't help :/

She slams her keyboard into you and you die

Not much you can do to outplay her, as blocking her ult with Wind wall doesn't stop her from killing you

play a real top laner at top and you wont need to know.

Who ever said she was top?

I saw Faker do it. But it's Faker.

I will say though that he managed to dash under her 3rd Q (since the hit comes at the landing point).

You can Q3 cancel her Q3. But it's just a bad matchup. Dashing around her is meaningless when she can just put her cursor on u and press QWE + right clicks, negating any fancy dash dodging you were attempting through mobile click target damage with a shield and 2 CC's that stop your dash.

It's pretty impossible.
