Riven with Energy

Well I was thinking a bit about the Idea with Energy. The most Energy Champs also get Energy back , So Ive got a Suggestion :

When doing an AA with bonus Damage by the passive, Riven gains 20 Energy back. Q : Each Q 30 Energy or the whole Q 90 W: 40 Energy E: 70 Energy R: No Cost

I think this would balance her a bit and a good Riven can spam longer than a bad one, but she cant Spam all day just like the current Riven. The R , the ultimate, costs nothing on the most energy Champs, i think its fair ^^

Sorry for my English and those Numbers are just Ideas^^

she is ok, why would you limit riven greatness by adding energy? she is hard to master already

Example scenario:

A situation where Riven's victim is suppose to flee may decide to turn around and fight back. Reason for their defiance may be anything including a confusion of inconsistently knowing when and when not to strike. When Riven gets Energy back she could most definitely then kill her target. The result here is nothing would have changed.
Riven builds will change and opt for attack speed. When attack speed later becomes sufficient she may be able to spam and fight effortlessly. Any Riven would learn to cast ability, auto-attack and ability, auto-attack. Nothing would have significantly changed, again.

Or am I missing something? :)

This isn't a bad idea, but would essentially cripple a 40% CDR Riven. It would be a slight nerf in early game but as you start stacking up CDR you will be limited by the amount of energy you have and regen.

Maybe 25 energy per auto would work out a bit better? I don't think it would but who knows we would need to see this tested.

The idea is once again not bad

Probably one of the few Riven ideas that ive seen that isnt incredibly stupid. Only thing i would do is have a gradual reduction on her E (i.e. 70/65/60/55/50) that way at end game she isnt useless during team fights b/c she does build a lot of CDR.

Edit: Also (although it may slightly defeat the purpose) on her 1st Q cast (if the energy cost is 20) refund 10 energy on hit, because her first two hits on her Q arent as impactful as her 3rd, and only on hit because that way she cant just Q away with after casting her E first.

I like the idea! I can see her with Energy... But, don't Ninjas have Energy? Akali Shen Zed Kennen LeeSin I mean, I don't think Lee Sin is but the question still stands.

Also, I want to share my old idea of a Riven ability cost/passive (It's rough as I forgot about it; talked about it a long time ago) I am stealing the concepts from other champions as I don't have time to remember exactly what wording I used.

Giving her a similar Passive to Rumble's Junkyard Titan: Using abilites will give her Heat, or 'Exile' if you will.

Basic Passive: Riven's blade gains a charge for 4 seconds every time she casts an ability. Each of her basic attacks consumes an available charge to deal bonus physical damage.

Ability Passive: Riven gains 5 Exile every time she uses a basic ability, and loses 10 Exile per second after 1 seconds of not using her abilities, of 100. (Roughly)

Half: Riven's ability cooldowns are reduced by 25% at 50 Exile or above.

Max: At 100 Exile, Riven slows herself for 6 seconds, which he cannot mitigate or cancel by any means, but her abilities are reduced by 90% and for each basic attack she deals she causes enemies to bleed for the duration, during which her Exile also decays back to 0.

Riven What is broken can be reforged.

##Don't attack me if this doesn't tickle your fancy. It doesn't have to happen, I just thought it was a good idea, too.

And then you have to buff her abilities so she doesn't have to spam everything to get close and deal damage.
