Riven isn't overpowered but she is broken, there's a big distinction, not directed to OP, just in general, although I wouldn't use the term balance when it's a broken champion, a better word would be fix.
Example: Jinx: OP but not broken Poppy: Broken but not OP
Try playing her or something, find out how to play against her.
I don't main Riven and she is balanced. You just have to pick against her or not give her early kills. Riven is like LB. They are really good at getting early kills and snowballing, but if that doesn't happen, they have a hard time coming back.

so in order to beat riven u have to pick somebody that can run away from her faster than she can jump to you and then wait for you team to come top to 5v1 her. IT MAKES SO MUCH SENSE NOW!

I pick Kennen and do quite well in lane. Since she has to be on top of me to do anything, she gets chain stunned and dies. Her dash is just a hair faster than if she just walked the distance with T2 boots.
Anyone with good poke and sustain will do well against Riven, provided you don't let her jump on you all the time.

Yep.
It is the whole Ziggs and Lux counter akali, but post 6 they cant do anything all over again.
Really? People are still complaining about Riven?
She's basically a non-factor late game. She doesn't dive hard enough to not get blown up before getting to the back line and there are other champs who can out split push her. Her early-mid game are strong, but the longer past laning phase it goes the less dangerous Riven is.
yes this is why you see her getting pentas late game
she's like her sword: broken

This is bait.
Her hit is very frontloaded(not overloaded) so the odds are probably that she can unload her combo onto you easily. If you can find a way to play around her initial strikes, you can turn fights around.
Statwise, just build armor. 1 damage types works against itself too sometimes.
Honestly, her lack of resources is her biggest problem IMO. Though I wouldn't recommend giving her mana
muh resets
I don't have to be a main to say riven is trash teir
this champ is stronger early than most laners, thats why you play safe until you get armor and health, then after that point you win lane.
not as long as her kit stays intact
her kit is a brute force combined with even more brute force if she wnowballs she does it harder than others becoming barely stoppable if she doesnt she gets rekt everytime someone sees her
From watching Boxbox a lot I would say just pick something like Malphite. Just W and E when she goes in and you win the trade.
