hi.. i play riven without boots.. im diamond 5 riven main..

my build looks like this

item 3072 item 3139 item 3074 item 3071 item 3035 item 3156 ( for everyone dat says where is my brutalizier.. i buy brutalizer but sell it later cause im not youmuss fan)

currently my runes are 15 ad // 216 hp @18 // 15cdr @ 18

as you can see on my build i have enough mresi and hp but no armor..

so my question is should i take 216 hp runes or 27 armor @ lvl 18 runes.. riven scales better with resis but hp helps vs all but also fks up against botrk users and any other % hp dmg dealers.

dont tell me to take flat armor or flat hp.. im asking just 216 hp at 18 or 27 armor at 18 and i prefer answers from diamond players or atleast platin

Personally, I have 4 rune pages just for riven as I am a riven main. 1st Rune page: I follow Boxbox's format of 8 Flat health seals, 2 armor quin, 1 flat cd quin, 9 flat cd glyphs, and 9 flat ad marks. Most of the time, this is for ad oriented champs, excluding darius (he has armor pen). This build also provides 10% cd which stacks perfectly with boots and youmuus. As you are not a youmuu's fan, I wouldn't recommend this setup.. but being versatile is a great asset.. sometimes you'll need the extra movement speed. I've consistently tested with both black cleaver (no boots build) and boots. 2nd Rune page: Mr Oriented, Ad marks, Health/level Seals, Mr glyphs, Ad quins. (Could be mix 3x mr glyphs/6x flat cd if you prefer CDR over tankiness). 3rd Rune page: Both armor and mr. Ad quin x 2, armor quin x 1, health/level seals, mr/cd glyphs, ad marks. 4th rune page: All out damage: Ad marks, Ad quins x2 + Cd flat x 1 quin, health/level seals, CD glyphs. As for builds, change accordingly. never stick to the same setup. Fyi, building hydra is not a (Must), notice huni for example, building bloodthirst > hydra. Change accordingly. I can not provide you with a perfect build b/c there is none. :)
