some riven numbers

without R. just a basic Riven Q cancel combo

4 autos plus Q and her passive . am not counting W. am just counting the situation if riven Es in and Q cancels on you without ult. just a basic lane combo.

the damage is

620% Total AD + 30 ----- 780% total AD + 270 based on level.

this is counting each AA damage which is 100% ad. also counting her passive. 25-50% ad based on level per auto.

and also Q which is 120-180% ad based on rank plus base damage

so a level 2 Q cancel does 6.2 AD ratio damage. if riven has 85 AD at level 2. her Q cancel does 561 + 30. 591 plus thunderlords or whatever masteries she has.

most level 2 champions in top lane have around 700 hp at level 2 with the starting item. considering they are negating 30% of damage from their armor. Riven level 2 combo does about 410 damage at level 2 to champions. so a little over half their hp.

note this is practically ignoring attack speed as a stat for her. when Riven was first designed the animation canceling was not intended. it was a glitch and you can look back thread from where riven was released. it was not an intended mechanic for her to be able to do that.

thats literally just a Q cancel. am surprised how is it completely fine for a champion with 15 ad from runes at level 3-4 be able to chunk 50% of your hp without using any mana and still have an escape

such a frustrating champion.

the only thing holding riven back is people that make mistakes with her. but its okay lets have as many riven mains in challenger as possible.
