Riven Full Lethality...

Soap Taste Okay··2 votes·4,321 views

Riven is actually broken right now, full Lethality does way to much and her 1 shots are now common in all stages of the game. Riven can have over 80 Lethality and that can 1 shot any champion pretty much. What can you do against her in lane she can tower dive super easy so you can't stay under tower she can even fountain kill you if she felt like it. She can Stun a whole team and ult and 1 shot the adc, mid, top, jg ,support which is everyone. If counter play exist share with us what it is.

I tried it out 5 times and it's awful when u want to win. It's basically a a fun build JUST for doing a fancy combo on an adc out of position. You don't do shit to tanks and your laning phase is beyond abusable. Please god don't actually think it's broken

After these 5 game starts I will never EVER try it in ranked . 18 percent CDr at 15 minutes and the path for the next item is awful. It's just a fun build tbh.

The regular build is the one for actually wanting to win lane and Being consistent in your damage and gameplay.

Also the lethality build makes sure u are incredibly squishy so even attempting to kill an adc late game is next to impossible unless they fuck up

  • riven main since season 3 that regrets thinking this build was actually op in ranked

^ FULL lethality is bad on Riven. Youmuu's and Edge of Night, however, are good to get on her. You should never opt to go FULL lethality, scraping your MUST HAVE 40% CDR. I'd grab 2 leth items on Riven at most for dueling builds. If it's vs tanks, I'd get this set up:

item 3142 item 3158 item 3071 item 3072 item 3026 item 3814 , most likely in that exact order. Some times QSS is just full blown better than Edge, but the cd being so short makes edge just that much more desirable.

If it's vs a dueling matchup you might even see me build like this --- even if a bit unconventional:

item 3142 item 3158 item 3812 item 3071 item 3026 sell boots for : item 3047 item 3748

Yea that was my originals build but I saw the hype for the new build and made a bad decision to try it in ranked . SO not worth it . My god it's beyond awful using it vs tanks

Lol. Riven with no lifesteal is nothing short of an adc with no life steal. xd Meltedd

She's fine.

Lethality is not.

This. Assassin main can confirm that this stat is being abused way too much. Legit assassins are actually benefitting very little from it, compared to how much it boosts the damage of diving fighters.

WHATs funny is that adcs like miss fortune are the ones abusing it .

That happens when you make a stat scaling, scaling champions benefit the most.

Should have been obvious...

Meh... tbh I don't think Full lethality riven is broken, to squishy to work vs most comps, if you see a glass cannon get anyone who can 1 shot back and you will be fine as long as you pick someone who can peel ,for your carries. CC IS KEY

Riven is ghey AF all the time, but right now she's relatively less ghey because tanks are so strong

So the same as always? Riven is a fighter with some assassin tendencies (jump in and kill priority targets within stun window)
