If Riven had all of her Ratios changed to AP...

Would she be more or less cancer?

Personally I would think less because her early game wouldn't be nearly as strong but her late game would involve her getting 800 Ap and 1 shoting carries with her ult so dunno

riven needs mana or energy, or lose the shield + dash

simple numerical rebalance just make her unable to get this much of a diference in numbers beetwen herself and others

because thats what makes riven cancer ... she gets a stat infusion which makes it so nobody can capitalize on her downtimes

she needs to have bigger CDs so she actually has to manage and invest in SOMETHING,

either that or punish-reward mechanics with big CDs that offer refunds if she hits, thereby punishing her use of her dash and Q for escaping.

ie: Shield gets a bigger CD but refunds if the shield pops due to damage, or Q gets bigger CD but a refund if the third Q hits a target

About the same. Her passive would be near useless and her ultimate steroid useless. If her kit was converted to AP, she would be about the same probably.

Well she wouldn't use Hydra to cancel some animations, but that's the only thing I can think about.

Well... her E, W and R all scale off BONUS AD, which means AD she has bought or picked up through runes/masteries. Only her passive and Q would be changed by an AP/AD switch.

It would make itemizing for CDR less efficient since the best CDR purchases for AP champions also have mana regen on them, so riven with longer cooldowns and is noticeably weaker during those cooldowns since her autos won't do shit without her passive? Yes please

Eh... she would probably run Nashor's Tooth (20%) with Ionian Boots (15%) and 5% CDR through masteries.

That'd still be a pretty big waste of gold since riven doesn't really want attack speed. Tru about the boots tho. You could be right

I was thinking more about Nashor's 15+15%AP bonus on-hit effects for her Basic Attacks than the Attack Speed bonus. It would pretty much make up for her lost passive.

Riven +item 3285 +item 3116 +item 3100 Would be sooo mega aids, she would literally rekt your entire team with that.

Just imagine a champion, you will never catch, which does 2k+ damage in "hello im riven" first and do sustained damage all the time, doing 700 damage with autos and LB proc alone.

What kind of suggestion is this.. Do you know what rabadons death cap, nas tooth, lichbane and ludens echo are??

She would be even stronger since getting a lot of AP is easier than getting a lot of AD.

She couldn't stack lifesteal with BT and Hydra, so she can be actually bursted...

You can get way more AP than AD, her late game is going to be her just using ult, Q Q Q W E backwards windslash
