What is it about Riven?

TheHobbits··3 votes·502 views

Why is it that I hate Riven so much? What is it exactly that causes me to actually hate this game when I see her?

No matter who I play, no matter what items I build, I just find myself loathing the sight of her. Even when I am beating her (I 3/1/1 and her 1/3/0) as Lux top she just decides "no I don't like top anymore" and walks mid kills them then tp's bot and doubles them. How does that work?

Why is it she can dash 4 times, have an aoe knock up, a dash that is also a shield that ALSO stacks with damage, a massive cone execute and a large aoe stun AND everything costs nothing because she doesn't use mana?

All of these factors are multiplied by the fact that all she has to build it raw damage and cooldown and she then out tanks the tank and out damages the damage. How is that a good thing?

Oh but wait I'm forgetting. "I'm just bad. I'm rekt and just mad bro. Lern 2 uninstall %%%"

And the sad thing is that this thread will be burned and buried by everyone because I'm voicing my opinion. I just can't see the logic behind having a champion with so much mobility and gets even tankier the more damage you build and has cc and no costs.

No other champion makes me feel this way. No other champion makes me hate this game.

it's because she has a unique and versatile kit that is hard to play against if you are not intimately familiar with it.

Calm down, it was just a joke.

Jeez, people are quick to wrap their teeth around your throat if you even poke their favorite champs.

she is far from my favorite. I played her three or four times when arcade Riven came out and found I was shit at playing her. Sorry if you found my previous post to be aggressive.

I have played Riven. She is easy as all hell. As I said. Build raw damage and become a tank for it. There are more champions that are more fun to play, but riven just does it all.

the thing is shes not great unless fed so either you don't know how to counter pick/lane against her or you and your team are feeding her.

The reason I made this thread was just after the example i gave. I was Lux top and was beating her. I was 3/1/1 and she was 1/3/0. Then she decided to go mid then tp bot and got 3 kills then was broken and I could no longer deal damage to her becuase she built damage.
