I honestly am thinking about maining Riven and I would love it if you people could give me advice. I want to go Tank Riven. Tank Riven may have a good advantage but idk if I should go tank. Any suggestions?

Tank Riven doesnt do anything, Poor CC, low base damages, no tank scalings, etc

For sure but I wouldn't go full tank. When learning how to play Riven I think it helps a lot to go for a tankier build so that you can practice combos more without worrying about being instantly blown up. When I play Riven I build:

item 3071 item 3812 item 3143 item 3065 item 3075 item 3158 (someones switch some tank items around)

You do enough damage with just 2 items because damage is ridiculous and you're more beefy. I even go further by going Resolve 2-1-1-1 Domination 3-X-1

Riven needs AD to scale so going for a complete tank build is probably not too great.

I want to learn Riven bad I might try tank or bruiser on bots until I figure out what I want to do with Riven.

You could if you build something like item 3812 first and went aftershock. Not sure if it'd be worth learning a hard to play champ to play them like that though
