It's always a skill matchup against Riven because Riven can button mash to win. Especially since Riot probably knows about her animation canceling but won't do anything because she's the typical fan-fiction self insert Mary Sue archetype.

Yeah but Darius's insta Q was the main reason he beat her. Now Riven can dodge my Q ( If she doesn't suck )

They added the delay on the Q to compensate for the fact that Darius gets 50 - 200 bonus AD from his Bloodrage, which is encouraging building tankier than normal. While I can't say anything about the matchup because I hardly play Axe Man, I find it hard to take Riven seriously when all the "Riven Mains" defend her so vehemently given she only requires two stats to scale hard: AD and CDR.

Too bad, Riot's going to be pushing the changes forward. He has a 90% slow on his W's active now which is... I dunno? I never noticed it in videos.

Thankfully all Rivens in your elo suck so you have nothing to worry about!

No they're hit or miss.

Just play like, lulu or something if you really can't be bothered to interact with your lane opponent.

Lulu..... nah

Only Play Darius1 votes

"Interact"

She jumps in and unloads on me while I can barely fight back because of her 2 stuns, then hops out with a shield just in case I try to hit her during her disengage.

So "interactive".
