Nerfing Riven's shield to not work when running, would make her less healthy

There is in fact only one mobility spell I know of that doesn't at least do 2 things. I might be mistaken, I don't play him.

Yet there is all this heated hatred for Riven's E because it gives a shield. Which makes no sense, her Q is a three part short range dash that does damage and a knockup. It gets three parts but is shorter range than many other dashes, which yes has many advantages, but also some disadvantages. Then she gets a very short range, cannot pass through walls dash that does no damage, instead it shields. There are plenty of champions in the game who have 2 abilities with mobility as well, and still have CC and damage in their kits.

The suggestions to remove the shield, are huge calls for gutting. Some people try to soften it "Only gets the shield when going in on people." Which would still mean Riven is 100% assured to lose all these matchup. Riven already loses these but now would lose them harder.

Riven tends to win these and now would lose them horribly.

And suggestions to make the shield only work when running away, and then buff her damage/kit to compensate... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ztVMib1T4T4 That is all we need is or Riven to be more feast/famine, even better at top tier play, and worse at low tier play.

If you want to discuss reasonable or fair Riven nerfs, which she will likely need when lethality is buffed. Please let me know :)
