Does anyone feel that Riven needs a slight buff?

Yes - I know that Black Cleaver buff did help her. But, when I play Riven, I struggle against many laners, even laners that I am supposedly supposed to counter, like Nasus. Call me a scrub, but honestly, I just feel like her armor should be raised by like 6. A small buff to allow her to be a little stronger. I'll probably get a lot of hate for this...

Riven has so much in her kit that it's hard to buff her without making her freelo.

No. Nobody feels that way. She is freelo already if you can play her. She may be hard, but once you get a basic understanding of her mechanics all of her abilities become BS.

No. Nobody feels that was.

You made a mistake my friend. You put the words "Riven" and "Buff" in the same sentence. We don't like your type around here.

You counter Nasus only early. If he is smart, he will take 36 armor runepage and start cloth+4, then you counter yourself... Riven is snowbally assasin, you need your jungler to win the lane for you. Or you can gank mid/bot.

a 36 armor runepage seems pretty unnecessary

That hp regen buff a while back was so damn good and I'm so grateful to riot for noticing it. A small armor buff would be unnecessary because with the bc buffs she's back in the meta

her life regeneration was already buffed, the reason why she is weaker in Season 6 is supposedly because the masteries arent the best for her.

No, the masteries suit her perfectly (TLd synergized perfectly, plus 45% CDR).

The reason she's struggling is because armor became cheaper and easier to get, making tanks able to completely ignore her pretty quickly, denying her ability to snowball and actually do anything

She's apparently not struggling anymore.

Probably due to the nerf to sunfire cape.

As far as I remember armor has been nerfed twice in the last 12 months I don't recall it being buffed.
