@Riot So why is riven allowed to stack her passive?

To add more counter play, let her only get one stack. Riven should use her passive wisely instead of just spamming her skills to max the stacks and attack whenever.

I honestly don't get all the riven QQ. Just take someone tank and laugh as she does nothing to you.

Lmfao Cloth armor is nothing to A Riven early game, you will always be 1 step behind while she bullies you, gets all of the cs and proceeds to rush item 3134 and item 3035 anyways.

The same could be said for all lane bullies. They're supposed to be obnoxious.

Just take Malphite Chogath Garen or even Nasus and you're fine.

CatSith3 votes

They are still not as obnoxious as Riven.

Baseball3b4 votes

So you don't find a well played draven, (pre-nerf) lucian or Azir as obnoxious as Riven?

You can't nerf a champion just because you find them obnoxious or oppressive when you're playing as a squishy carry type top (the exact same ones she's built to do well against) that everyone seems to take vs. Riven these days.

She does Well vs all types of champions, lol please.

Tell me why its okay to have a auto attack damage buff with 3 stacks and a low cd(even lower cd with 40% which all rivens build) champion like Riven? Might as well give her permanent auto attack buff without any stacks.

Play Riven against a similarly skilled Malphite, Cho, or Garen or anyone that stacks armor + health and has decent sustain and you won't be saying that. At this point, the Riven QQ is just a circle jerk with nothing to back it up.

  1. She's squishy as hell without her shield, which has ~8 seconds CD early game depending on Runes/masteries which leads to my next point

  2. Damage is all she has. Yes, she has a short knock up and a .75 second stun, but that's not enough to warrant building her as a bruiser/tank. Take away her damage and she's more useless than a late game support Teemo

If Nasus can survive until he get glacial shroud/frozen heart/warden's mail then he's golden. Granted it's more dependent on player skill than say, Malphite or Cho, but he has the tools to survive and outscale Riven.

only if you play it wrong. Too many nasuses (nasi? Nasoose?) think they can tank their way through her damage early on like they do every other champion. Basically if you can survive until first back (which is easy to do with Cloth 5 start, Wither and lifesteal/armor runes) it's smooth sailing from there.

A cloth and 5 pots is only nothing to Riven if you're still trying to play like a complete dumbass.

Strategy > Build. The build helps, but actually playing smart wins games.

is this for real? they already nerfed her ms and her ulti down a huge amount. like are you joking or just mentally retarded? riven is no where near as strong as she was before. shut the fuck up already.

CatSith3 votes

Her MS isn't why she has a high mobility. They lower her ult speed missile (that isn't a huge nerf.)

Goodest Gamer3 votes

yes it fucking is. you have no idea what the fuck you are talking about seeing as u dont play this champion.

CatSith2 votes

a 5 ms nerf is nothing to her.

Her ult speed was for counterplay, because having a high speed long range aoe execution sounds fair.

Not.

Goodest Gamer3 votes

and that was a good nerf. anything more is unnecessary and unjust just to satisify whiny bitches who dont want to win lane without using an extra few brain cells.

thats funny because a riven using q e into a teamfight gets blown up seeing as she has 4 seconds of vulnerability but u morons dont like to think, you want everything nerfed for you.

CatSith2 votes

because thats what rivens players do right? Q E into a team.

No.

Goodest Gamer1 votes

no they walk up and everyone dies immediately.

Yea that sounds like a good nerf. Add in the removal of her knock up Q and remove a certain percentage on the lack of health to her ult.

Better yet, make her use mana or something. She's always a pest and dances her way into lane and under the turrets. She gets 1 kill, goes level 6 and she'll go straight into the FRAKIN FOUNTAIN JUST TO KILL YOU AND GETS OUT UNSCATHED. Not literally I'm just over exaggerating but if you just get in your lane with full health, she'll instantly tower dive you and leave with 60% health remaining. Then her shield, change that. Cause really? Attack damage. Really? Attack damage makes her shield stronger. How can she be the only one in game that can build straight out damage to make herself Tanky? Don't buff her, nerf her back into the ground with Teemo. Please. She's worse than Satan and everyone knows that.

So you know that Riven's power is at the highest not "stacking" the passive? This literally would just punish the bad Rivens who don't get any decent results with her and completely leave the "pros" that get full effectiveness out of the passive at the same level.

So... I guess if that is your intent, making the crappy rivens even MORE crappy than they already were because that's ALL it's doing.

CatSith1 votes

The thing is you don't need to be a good player to use riven effectively.

It shouldn't reward bad riven players.

Here's some info on reporting and the new player behavior system as requested (in your deleted thread);

Player behavior systems are not just based on reports. Even if a premade of 4 reported you, if the reports are false, you won't receive a penalty. All player behavior systems are backed by the Report System, which tries to validate every single report. If a report is false, the reporter loses "value" in his reports and the relevant player behavior system ignores the reports. If a report is accurate, the reporter gains "value" and his reports become more powerful. The current Reform System analyzes chat logs for negative behaviors, so it goes beyond just looking at false or accurate reports.


DOES PLAYING MORE GAMES MEAN I HAVE MORE CHANCES OF BEING BANNED? The Tribunal takes into account how many games you have played. If you've played thousands of games and get reported a hundred times, you will be less likely to enter the Tribunal than someone who played a hundred games and is reported a hundred times. Keep in mind that if you are extremely toxic in a small number of games over a short period of time, then the Tribunal may issue a suspension against your account. CAN PEOPLE WHO DON'T LIKE ME REPEATEDLY REPORT ME? This is unlikely, but it's possible if you find yourself repeatedly matched into games with them. Players are limited to one report per player per game. Also, consistently making false reports against others diminishes the value of a person's reports and renders them meaningless.


Please bear in mind that constantly reporting Summoners for violations of the code that they did not commit could result in your account being suspended due to the abuse of the reporting system.


ANOTHER SUMMONER TOLD ME HE'S GOING TO REPORT ME FOR NO REASON. WILL THIS FALSE REPORT COUNT AGAINST ME? Like all of our behavior systems, the Behavior Alerts system is built on a complex formula that takes into account the behavior of all summoners, which helps to avoid a message being sent your way for a false report. We also take into consideration toxic players, or those who frequently abuse the reporting system, so even if you get reported by one of these players, fear not, we've got you covered!


However, I don't think there are many unjust bans and chat restrictions, and players are definitely not being chat restricted just because of being reported--the system doesn't work off just reports. Secondly, the Report System validates every report, so if you are a player that false or troll reports often your reports are worth nothing to all player behavior systems. If you are a player that reports accurately, your reports become more valuable. All replacement systems directly assess and review chat logs, and all systems have some form of manual review to ensure a high accuracy.
