If Riven is as OP as everyone says...

I wonder why she hardly ever sees any LCS games. Makes me wonder that maybe she actually has a way to be dealt with? hmmm.

RIVEN IS PICKED IN LCS

Your turn OP

It is not so much that she is OP as much as she is broken. She is a poorly designed champion. Now, I am not suggesting she needs a Sion level rework. But she certainly needs an Ashe level rework at the very least.

Your a doubebag

Basically, when all the pros in LCs tell you that LCS and Soloq are different, why try to say otherwise

She's like Kat where the lower ELO you are, the better she is.

Is that why her pick rate and win rate are higher in Diamond than Bronze or silver? Common now

It's because the higher you climb, the more people know what they want to play/like to play. IN Bronze and Silver, someone hears that X champ is good, so they play them (not really knowing what to do). That kills win rates in low ranks.

BTW, if you have a source, I'd love to see it.

Awesome! However, my reasoning still stands.

Your reasoning is proven wrong. Her pick rate is lower in lower elo. So people trying her isn't really an excuse. Her difficulty curve is also in the middle, so you can't say she is hard to master. Her win rate is also lower.

Everything you said is not true.

maybe thats why riot wont nerf her hard. Shes at a safe 50% winrate.

She has a better win rate the higher the elo. It's literally just a SOloQ v. LCS difference, because that's all it is.

Pros actually work together where as solo Q does not.

Just like Master Yi, Riven is a nub stomper. If you don't know how to deal with her she will walk all over you and your team. It's really sad too, because any attempt to convince someone that they just need to learn a few things in order to do well against her ends up sounding like a typical "learn to play scrub" statement.

because soloque you can't trust lanes to actually play safe so you can camp her out. Whereas in lcs they abuse her pre 6. but if you ever aske for camp in lane, they blow you off. then wonder why riven/nasus is rolling everyone, but it is my fault i am 0/0/0 and riven is fed
