VS Riven, dont give up!
The other day we played against a championship skin Riven that got fed top, after that she roamed to our mid and bot lanes decimating anyone in her way, with a 13-0 in under 18 minutes of the game we stood at the brink of defeat. Our morale was down, we didnt know what to do, but as a jg carry Diana i knew i can carry, i told my team to listen to my strategy, if so we can comeback and win.
I told my team to stay under turrets as a group and wait for an opening to pick off Riven's teammates. If we can pick off her teammates we can actually even out our strength with Riven, at first i faced opposition-the team was fighting eachother, and suddenly we see
pushing bot with
and
. we were so scared but i kept pushing our team to stay together and focus on another lane to pick off her teammates to catch up, and they listened, firstly we fended against Riven under our turret, when she left we stormed mid and we managed to kill their
and
, this pushed Riven back and we were able to push our lanes, this was enough morale for the team to continue listening to me and we eventually won.
What we learned from this game is to never give up, to work as a team. Riven, or any strong champ that gets fed has similar rules your losing team can use to counter:
- dont fight fed champs, avoid them, run.
- defend against fed champs under turrets only if you outnumber them.
- pick off the fed champs teammates and push where the fed champ isnt.
- capture objectives safely and away from fed champs
- most important get the team to work together, dont grief.
It's why i love playing League of Legends because you can work as a team and pull off great things.
