Why is everybody crying about Riven?

Tell me a Secret··2 votes·1,571 views

I don't see a reason why so that is why I ask.

Already downvoted, clearly people don't stand her. Yet no one really dxplains why? If you are going to downvote, let me know why at least.

Come on all you silver scrubs, let the downvotes come is as you rage when you lose a trade in lane to a riven lmfao

the problem i have with riven buffs is that she ISN'T an issue now.

she can still pretty much 100-0 most champ at lvl 6. but she needs to play it right wait for them to waste a crucial spell and it takes skill to do.

the buffs are just going to bring back riven into the old "OP" state.

It's more about the enemy playing it wrong than riven doing it right. For example take ahri at level 6, if here enemy gets out of position so she can charm the enemy, she will 100-0 the enemy while no one is complaining about it.

For Riven, you need to look for a window to go all in, play after the enemy's cooldowns and then go in for the kill. If you don't do it correctly you won't get ghe kill and snowball.

The ability they increased the damage on is a medium range AoE AD execute with a fairly quick cone shaped passthrough projectile.

coupled with an increase of the power of penetration items and cdr for AD champs there is a potential issue

But then i'm pretty sure champs are also getting tankier anyways

It's a fair buff but nothing special, after they made armor pen harder to get, riven players have struggled. Never affected me as I started playing her like 4-5 months back, but I feel the lack of armor pen.

Are you sure they aren't complaining about the one who is playing riven?

Tell me a Secret1 votes

Can be so, not sure tho

I think it's because Riven is in a decent spot despite he community saying otherwise and, now that she is getting buffed out of no where, people are confused and a little angry since she isn't really underpowered right now.

Tell me a Secret1 votes

when it comes to riven the community will always say she is overpowered, they just like to cry because they can't do the things that the pros do. If she is such a problem, just ban her

Because she has huge buffs on pbe. She's getting more damage with her ult.

Tell me a Secret1 votes

I know but that's nothing big. Remember the nerf to her ult projectile speed? That was bigger. Also people have cried about her for years, it didn't start because of the recent PBE buffs.

Because nobody thinks rivens kit is healthy. her Q is 2 damaging dashes with a knockup on the 3rd. Her W is a small damaging aoe stun. Her E is a dash that gives armor based on her AD.

She has practically no cooldowns. Riven and yasuo are the only 2 champs that you can literally put in urf mode and notice a minimal difference.

Her Ult is an AD steroid + Ranged execute.

Her entire kit screams nuisance.

And if you disagree with all that thats fine. But riven is the only champ in the game besides yasuo in which ive never met a non-toxic one. Fuck every riven player they are all toxic.

I feel like anyone who complains about Riven at this point after all the nerfs needs to seriously examine their laning mechanics, because the only people Riven gets really fed off of at this point are people who feed everyone.

''The only people riven gets really fed off of a this point are people who feed everyone''

So then why do you main riven? Especially in Diamond? If shes as light as you say then you'd be a liability to your team by picking riven everytime in which you are practically feeding..

And if your brain is too small-mannered to comprehend the sarcasm then i have another response.

i feel like anyone who mains riven shouldnt bitch about other people who complain about riven.

Tl;Dr ( You main riven so its quite obvious you're going to be one sided, you fuck )

I got to p3 with riven, after that it was mostly anivia with 91% winrate, so I'd say I main anivia instead.. Also you should also try getting out of silver instead of coming with bs here.

Just an example, in game whenever a riven dies she gets alot of hate, meanwhile someone else is 0-4 and no one really cares

They don't matter at all if the enemy has flash, so I'd say I'd not even notice the buffs.

No but at level 6, when riven hasn't started snowballing yet if the enemy isnt a complete retard, it is easy to predict her R2 and flash it. She is kinda dependant on getting the level 6 kill, or be more or less useless.

Look at it this way, would you play riven better now after these buffs, or would you still struggle with animation canceling? I bet the latter. These buffs only mean something to the good players, a bad riven player will still suck like before.

And once again, a silver player comes and starts talking logic after losing 6 ranked games in a row within a 24 hour time span..

As you are stuck in silver you have no game knowledge, so don't act smart here when you go 0-10 to a riven and cry because you can't play the lane correctly
