Riven base damage and damage scale is extremely low

Just my honest opinion here with her. I bought her and after few matches I just can see that her base physical damage+ scale is lower than most other AD melee champs. even with absolutely all in on damage + cdr i was dealing mediocre damage to champs that don't even have armor. and I had last whisper. I just think she needs a little bit of a better scale with level.

... or maybe you shouldn't assume that he shouldn't assume that you don't know what you're doing... cause you think you know but you really don't...

... Or maybe you have no clue about animation cancelling and you could do 2 times the damage you're doing?

So, let's see... Riven is all about her AD ratios + base damage. All of her build is concentrated into getting more AD to benefit of her ratios and armorpen to reduce resistances. On top of that, she has a shield scaling on AD.

If her base damages + ratios were bad, Riven would be trashtier.

Riven is picked in Worlds, with success and has quite a good winrate in high elo soloQ.

So, by that logic, i see only one conclusion. As a new player of Riven, like any other human beings, you are not god and need time to learn her mechanics, mostly animation cancelling.

She has one of the best scalings in the game. I guess you troll us. She has low base dmg, so you can't go triforce and tank items. If you wanna dmg with riven, you buy dmg and get op shield ( 210 (+ 100% bonus AD))

Or maybe you realize her passive is retarded as fuck and where she gets her broken power from aa cancelling

Just the fact that her shield, a defensive ability scales with AD is just dumb lol.

First of all, you don't even have full set of runes, and the ones you have are all tier 2. You are using 13-4-4 masteries. You aren't even optimizing your own settings. Riven is extremely strong. Go search up how to set up rune pages and mastery trees. They help A LOT
