Riven Is a noob trap

Riven is an awful champion because she loses to tanks, ranged champions and those champions who have cc. She is a weak teamfighter because cc destroys her, she is squishy and she can easily be kited. Champions like janna can totally negate her and she isn't the splitpushing monster jax or irelia are. She gets outscaled and is a very hit or miss, inconsistent early game. Stop playing riven in ranked, it's unfair to your teammates and frankly quite dumb. That said, Riven might be able to be fixed if her Q and passive can crit for 1.75x damage much like yasuo Q.

Riven is shit if you're shit at her. I assume you fall into that category.

Easily be kited? Bullshit.

As much as I like to joke otherwise, being any good at Riven requires skill. Clearly you don't have that skill if all that's happening to you so either pick a different champion to main or suck it up and practice.

This is a really roundabout way to make a beg for buffs thread.

Sure, it's not like she has a built in execute, 4 dashes, empowered autos, 2 ccs, and many combo options. Weak teamfighter? Oh yeah, it's not like you can engage with 3rd q w combo and then burst them down.
