Riven is balanced

Lady Hammerlock··3 votes·346 views

God can't believe I'm finally saying this not only is she not the best in the current meta,she is quite hard to master and play but easy to learn

sure she does insane damage,but any person with a brain would instantly pick armour heavy champions like Malphite Shen ,etc

She can really really fall off late(especially when not fed)

And BTW to those who say Hurrrrr durrrrr animation cancelling is a bug,please its just riven overlapping and instantly performing an action over another

Overall I feel like she isn't unbalanced,its just that she is rather frustrating to play against,especially since her Q alone gives her basically 3 jumps with empowered attacks.

I've also read that riven players are statistically the most toxic ones,but can't say if this is true or just made up(though I did notice that a lot of them seem toxic).

she was never nerfed or changed the problem is that. so many other champions got buffed or indirectly buffed because of the many changes so that shes kinda just ok now.

agreed we just raised the bar, people calling for buffs more than nerfs

riven is still quite strong especially early game and doesn't fall off. I don't think she's broken strong but she is above average.

I don't mind her auto animation, in fact I prefer it as it takes a skill to master, so long as its an intended part of her kit and her numbers reflect it.

i think that the damage in the whole game needs to be lowered. its just stupid being a 300 armor tank 4k health dying in 2-3 seconds because they have a yi and an adc

i really didnt see the point of this thread.....what are you trying to achieve? if you want to prove that riven is balanced, then you need to present values for stats.

She's strong, if you first pick her you will probably get stomped, most people can play panth well enough to stomp Riven, however, she counters a great deal of champs herself, she's very mobile, has superb damage and cc in a class of her owm among fighters, the new masteries and items also allow her to build a great deal tankier than before without having any impact on her dps.

While not OP, I still hate playing against her, especially as a jungler, as ganking her seems utterly pointless unless you and your toplaner are both packing heavy cc, once she get's deadmans it becomes even more futile. I restate, not OP, but utterly anoying. I love having her on my team however, as her mobility and cc makes locking down 2v1 kills so easy, so I be like: bitch get prepared to get fed, I'm gonna feed you your lane opponent untill you burst.

She's not easy to learn at all. Probably one of the hardest champs in the game. You can either Q-aa every time or you're garbage.

she is relatively easy to learn the difficult part is mastering her she lacks any skill shot other then her ult,what I'm saying is mechanically intense just not very hard to understand at first glance till you see the animation cancelling
