So I just wanted to play Swain top, and Riven manages to kill me with Q-W-AA-Q-AA-Q-AA pre-6

Again, when is her nerf to her passive coming at? It's already pretty unfair that she gets to be:

  • resourceless
  • 2 types of mobility
  • 2 types of CC
  • 1 AoE ult like a fking Nidalee's Q

Either nerf her passive, or give her higher cooldowns on all of her abilities. It's still not fair that she gets to deal so much damage with her abilities which has no drawback at all. Eg. Becoming oom faster

I wish her shield scaled with HP (to encourage bruiser, rather than glass cannon builds with less squishiness).

Though, having an aa steroid passive is kinda... eh when she has three dashes, a shield dash, and an aoe stun. That's like a Leona ult in melee range.

If anything, her passive should have something to do anything but attacking. Maybe move the shield of her dash to her passive, kind of like Vi's ult? It'd be a significant nerf, unfortunately, but her power budget is somewhat high at the moment.

Honestly I find riven to be a pretty easy win for me. Maybe It's just me but i don't know. Some good choices for fighting her that come to mind right away of are Garen, Hecarim, Olaf, Cho Gath, even Teemo if you play it right. Games I play against riven typically result in me getting at least 5 kills and riven rushing a randuins.

The only way Riven can kill you in one combo pre 6 is

  1. She has ignite, you don't
  2. You were oom from
  1. Wasting mana farming
  2. Her outplaying your W with her E
  1. You didn't harass
  2. This is obvious, she got FB or a kill ahead of you

You obviously missed your Ws
