I can't understand people like, they compare RIVEN to GAREN it's something beyond imagination "Riven is so broken!" - Garen Player "OMG that Riven Damage" - Talon Player "Riven is not balanced" - LeBlanc Player There's something players need to know about Riven. First of All she is Hard to master but Average or even Easy to play in low elo. In high Elo she is hard to play because almost all Top Lanners Counter Riven and High Elo Players know how to counterpick or counterplay Riven(Hard/Average to Master at this point I think). Some of Her Combos are HARD AF. Your Ultimate with wrong Runes or Masterys will have 120s CD level 6 so he can make you waste your ultimate then destroy you. Lethality is stupid, not the Champion. If you think Riven Full tank deals the same damage as Garen Tank you never played Riven before. Garen Full Tank Damage 1000k True damage E Riven Full Tank Damage 200 Physical Damage or less. I main Riven and I am not saying all Community can't understand this, it's just stupid how people compare Riven to Garen, LeBlanc, Talon, and those champions. At least in Euw this happens. Riven

First of all how are you gonna put Garen in with Talon and Leblanc that makes no sense

In high Elo she is hard to play because almost all Top Lanners Counter Riven

This is just wrong, that isn't why she's hard to play.

Yo, pro tip:

  1. play a game as garen
  2. get hella fed
  3. see players complain about garen being broken.

Some people always complain that a champ is broken when they lose. We call those people "idiots", ignore them and watch your day improve.

Also in the last rules you start comparing riven to garen yourself. Maybe you don't intend it that way, but it comes of as highly hypocritical(also 1000k true damage seriously?).

I have never seen Riven compared to any of those champs.

I agree that Riven is a complex champion that requires effort and skill to play at higher elos and unfortunately not much of that at low elo.

I think your post however could have been worded better, there are a lot of factors that go into her and she's really not even comparable to any of the champs you listed.

Yea, Riven mains get a good chunk of hate just by playing Riven, but calling certain champions "Retard Champs" really doesn't help.

Those people should have played back when you could start red flask and get FB by rolling your face on the flash ignite Q buttons
