Riven's Faction should be Ionia now
No more explanation, just read the part 3 of her nd yas's story

Totally agree. She will continue living in Ionia. It is even shown that she found a family in that land to take care of.
It feels like she should become an officially Ionian champion with that story, just like they changed Ziggs to be a Zaunite instead of Piltovian with his comic.
Which would mean the Ionian champion roster would have 19 champions then.... Hell, Riot really should take some years of a break from Ionia.
Disagree.
Riven still represents the best of what Noxus is and could be. Currently she is being tempered and reforged by Ionia.
Do I cease to be British just because I live in California? ;-)
My accent suggests otherwise...
She doesn't own any allegiance to Ionia and Ionia sees her as a war criminal. Why exactly should she be considered an Ionian? Because she resides in Ionia for her crimes? Her only motive to stay in Ionia is to repay for what she did to Ionia and settle her inner struggles. After she's done, there is no saying what she will do. But who knows the sentence may have been life long so she might serve it for the rest of her life... Still wouldn't make her Ionian... only their slave whether she liked it or not.
