    As a Riven main since 2013, I give this video 100/100. Just pure dedication and hard work!
    I remember V1per was asked why Riven was his favorite, and he said because she is just sooo much fun. Indeed, no matter what match-up you are against, hard or easy, there's always a chance you get clapped if you don't execute her right. Unlike other champions you might get bored if you play too often, I never felt like it when picking her.

    Riven's problem is that armor makes her useless and her damage isn't high enough lategame to oneshot carries. So at 6 items, you end up with a "bruiser" who's too squishy to survive teamfights but doesn't have enough damage to assassinate carries. On top of that she's difficult to pull off mechanically where champs like jax and fiora can just outscale and stat-check at various points of the game.

      Have you ever played Riven in diamond+? She can't split late game like other hullbreaker abusers because most toplaners 1v1 and outsustain her unless she is absurdly ahead, she is useless in teamfights without flash, and her flat AD with no % or pen built into her kit is countered by a single armor item and tabis

True Damage, high scalling, Attk speed boost, Armor & MR boost. Like, why would you need to cancel auto-animation if you can just kill the enemy with a stacked Q?

  • @torri776
    @torri776 8 місяців тому +3

    This video is pure bliss to watch. It details the history of Riven's success over the years, all crashing down over the ultimate conclusion that Riven is unfortunately severely outdated.
    One of the few champions in the game alongside Gragas to not receive major changes in their kit, Riven's dashes now feel like walking when everyone else has infinitely better dashes and movement speed steroids tacked on, the latter of which Riven doesn't even have.
    Oh and speaking of the matchups listed at 14:26:
    Malphite: Hard lane counter to Riven. If Malph's team knows what they're doing, they can take advantage of not only having an infinitely better frontliner, which is a privilege that Malphite retains, and force teamfights with a 5v4 provided both teams are equal.
    Renekton: One of the weakest counters, despite being infamous for being Riven's biggest counter. He got plenty of changes that make Riven feel weak. His level 1 is terrible though so it's easily abusable, but if he gets to level 2 or 3, he's already won the lane with his broken empowered W stun which lasts longer than both Riven ccs combined.
    Jayce: Haven't seen him in recent times, though I can imagine he's always been annoying to deal with as a Riven player. Kite from range, switch stances to outrun Riven's Qs because movement speed from his passive, melee E Riven if she does close the gap, then switch back to range to get Riven low (Riven has no sustain) before switching back to melee and killing Riven with an all-in.
    Kennen: Broken when his E gives armor as opposed to his ultimate.
    Fiora: There was a time when Riven and Fiora were on par with each other, but due to changes to laning, Riven sucks at playing passive because her kit encourages aggression, which current laning simply won't allow. Pushing into Fiora will risk a freeze, putting Riven at a severe disadvantage in a match where Fiora is already the better scaling champion.
    Quinn: Haven't seen Quinn, but proccing her passive onto Riven gives movement and attack speed, in addition to her Q and E just being blatantly unfun to fight. Plus, she's a better roamer.
    Karma: When played Top, it's impossible to die as Karma against Riven. Not only does Karma have a fantastic pre-6 ultimate negating Riven's damage, but her Q is great for kiting a champ who's feeling slower and slower per champion release.
    Tryndamere: While on the weak side, Trynd can simply just let Riven push into him. He can't win early fights unless he's lucky, so he should just frustrate the Riven player by playing passive and freezing. He's mostly uninteractive, not really a hard counter.
    Olaf: Better DPS, better all-in pre and post 6, Ultimate speeds him up and makes him impervious to Riven's W. He also outscales Riven in teamfights and 1v1 combat.
    Sett: Soft counter to Riven, has a level one that completely negates hers, and with Bone Plating he's just really hard to punish. He does similar damage to Riven but is also a better frontliner given his juggernaut/tank status.
    Jax: Loses early levels very hard, but if he freezes, he can greatly outscale.
    Darius: Actual beneficiary of the bruiser durability changes as mentioned in the video, can't ever die to Riven if he knows what he's doing. Riven also can't fight him when he has Ghost up since he will outrun Riven's tiny dashes.
    Garen: Beatable earlygame but once he gets movement speed items he just outruns Riven just by walking and pressing Q, and it's impossible to engage on him as a result. His damage is not the problem - he's just very speedy.
    Gragas: This is a more even matchup. I don't think it's at all bad because Gragas is arguably harder to play than Riven and is very difficult to master. That being said though, his ultimate is better in teamfights.
    Illaoi: Statchecker whose E deals 99% of Riven's health even when the latter is 4 kills ahead.
    Teemo: His early laning is difficult to contest, and his post 6 crushes Riven's aggressive game plan.
    Warwick: The best 1v1 tank with 5 times Riven's cc provided he has his ultimate. It's impossible for a Riven to ever kill a Warwick following the durability update. He has better sustain, DPS, can lower your damage via E and fear before chaining into Infinite Duress to crush you. It's just onesided, whether he's top with Barrier or jungle.
    Rumble: Better ultimate, Q is tricky to outdamage and his W discourages interaction.
    Poppy: Iceborn Gauntlet abuser who is a textbook Riven counter by way of her W stunning Riven at her own engage. Also has an ultimate that can protect her team from a flawless Riven flank.
    Vayne: Passive can help her close the gap when she needs to play aggressively onto Riven. Her Q and E are infamous for countering melee champions (Riven has no ranged attacks sans Wind Slash which is a finisher, not a poke tool), which is why she became a toplaner in the first place.

  • @habby2280
    @habby2280 8 місяців тому +10

    Best video you've made so far boss, keep it up. Here's my thoughts as 8 year Riven OTP with 5m+ mastery:
    The biggest problem with Riven is that, over the years, she has completely lost her identity. There really is no singular reason to pick Riven that another champ couldn't do better (teamfight, splitpush, scale, early snowball, utility, etc.). She's decent at doing everything (based on how skilled you are), but doesn't excel at anything.
    That is why she is so popular for boosting and looks so overpowered when people smurf with her. If you are better than your opponent in all aspects, Riven is the best champ to pick to abuse your knowledge advantage, since she can do basically everything. She is able to punish mistakes bad players make at all stages of the game, so she's a great champion for smurfing/boosting.
    In order to succeed and consistently climb with Riven, you actually need to be much more skilled than your opponent in comparison to other champs.
    Riven is still the ONLY bruiser/carry in top lane that has ZERO ways to deal with tanks in her kit. No armor pen, armor shred, mixed dmg, magic dmg, max % HP dmg, true dmg. ALL of her damage is flat physical. The enemy can build 1100g Tabis/Steelcaps and you become useless. If Riot showed how much damage these boots actually block each game, entire community would rage and complain.
    She needs items to deal with armor stacking - at least two items, but usually 3+. Until she reaches that, tanks can build just straight armor and destroy her with just base damage on their abilities. If they build Ice Gauntlet which also gives sheen proc, she has no hope to win with equal gold.
    She also has ZERO sustain, which means she has a rough time reaching those items that she desperately needs. If you mess up even ONE time in lane your game is over. She can't rely on scaling like Camille/Fiora/Jax or be useful from behind like a tank.
    Riven can't just sit back and play passively to scale, other bruisers will just do the same and scale harder than her. She needs to have an advantage in order to win games. But durability patch and other nerfs/buffs have taken away her early game power, making it hard to snowball and get an advantage.
    These incoming buffs don't even solve her main problems, it's just something to stir players up and see how the changes affect her. I honestly don't think Riot even knows what to do with her.
    IMO, she needs some kind of armor pen or armor shred in her kit. For example, when she presses R her Passive autos will apply some armor penetration until the R buff ends.
    Hopefully the buff and mythic removal/item changes will help her, but right now she's just 100% not worth the effort it takes to climb with her. Pick K'sante and 1v9 carry with True dmg while being unkillable.

      You would expect a champion who needs to be piloted to perfection to work to actually be strong when piloted correctly, since 1 mistake for her means game over ff15, but she simply isn't.

    I think you covered pretty much everything and I really appreciate we both agree on the fact that Riven (Q bugs aside) is perfectly balanced where she is, probably the most balanced she has been since release.
    The problem is Riven's kit was fresh and unique for several years, but right now we've plenty of champions that have mobility steroids and Riven's range (contrary to popular belief) is really short and you cannot afford to spend two Q to gap close or you will basically lose 60% of your damage. So yeah, Riven is now still a unique champion for her combo based kit and a reminiscence of a fighting game character, but the current META and game state don't reward anyone willing to play her.
    I've seen and coached a lot of low elo players over years and their main issue always is a poor understanding of what you can/cannot do. Most silvers Riven mains can Q cancel quite decently, but they still have no understanding of tempo, power spikes and so on. And no matter how fast you're with your mouse, mechanics in modern league means way less.
    Since mythics introduction the skill expression flatten out and outplays relay more your champion having the stats to do something or not. Figuring that has been the best thing for me, as I'm now finally free from League. It has been a good journey,
    Best!

    God I love this video, I like it when my champ Riven gets attention from the community, makes me think she's relavent in a way XD.
    I do think 1 major difference between riven and other bruisers is almost all of them are fast auto attack base, short cd base (I'm talking about 1 or 2 abilities that is lower than Riven Q and W like fiora Q, jax w, Darius Q, yas and yone q, malphite W, and etc.) and some champs that are on hit base like Irelia. I think the MAIN difference is that Riven is not your "fight to death" kind of champion, she thrives on short fights or fights were she wants to delay the fight for her CDs to comeback, since with mediocre lvl CD of her Q would be around 6 to 5 seconds and W right around 4 to 3 seconds while E helping her block damage t help delay her CD. But if you think about it, Riven really gets out match with champs that just auto attack you to death and have way more lower CDs bcuz here design that way.
    I do hope riot would not only fix her, but also help match her with other champs. I do have 1 idea that either be broken or not, "give her R attack speed so that she can match with other champs, OR have her R give her permanent passive during the duration of R), since mid to late game her R gets lower CD and it would make REALLY good sense if Riven thrives with this change, but thats my only opinion cuz this change might be too broken to her.

    While i do agree just giving riven armor pen as a passive, like how pantheon gets armor pen when he puts points in his ult the simpler and lazier approach for rito should've been allowing her passive to just simply ignore a percentage of armor; this way the skill expression is still there as if you're able to effectively use riven's passive then it falls on the player to make her work

    Very well-made video. I think her Q should apply some Armour Penetration, her W stun should be 1-1.5 seconds and her e shield should last for 2 seconds and scale with level up to a 1/5 of her max health. R could stay as is and the AD ratios as well. Thoughts?

You know 1-1.5s is not long compared to some taunts and other stuns in this game. She'd still have her squishy defences for counterplay. Might as well just turn Riven into an assassin.

    @Gojiradogzillagodzilla 8 місяців тому +6

    Aside from other champions being too strong/items being bad for her, i think there are 2 healthy, long term solutions for her:
    1- Make her R give passive armor pen, this way shes not too oppressive in lane but scales better, they did this for Pantheon and it did wonders for him;
    Or
    2- Make her passive do less damage, but magical instead of physical damage. This way shes not invalidated completely by tanks or tabis, but will still need items to do meaningful damage.
    Nerf her E if she gets too strong, but one of these should be completely fine. Also fix her Q bug for fucks sake, its been there for literal years now.

  • @raffyroad230
    @raffyroad230 8 місяців тому

    BoxBox is definitely the one that made me have eyes on riven since i like to challenge myself with mechanics and uniqueness. I loved watching montages, and it really did look flashy before but i guess it is just basic and outdated now. Right now in the top lane it almost no longer make sense to spend a lot of time and energy against an opponent who just press few buttons. Well this is only not true if you still continue to have fun with the champion after a defeat or victory besides that is most important, to have fun. Riven was fun for me and up until now appreciate mechanics learned but it is not rewarding and easily punished by losing lane or having even matchups.
    Heavy snowball does mean power in the lane but also means easy fall off. Often late game there is also too much cc that can stop you on non stomp matches. Well at this point, this is top lane in general. Well, as i continue to play league ill probably avoid playing riven for now to avoid stress, but ill continue to keep the mechanics learned in my heart, and hope to see riven being effective soon or more fun.
    "Riven is OP" statements are also so outdated, just wanna put it out there
    Thank you for the video as an eye opener to reality, Love the dedication.

    people dont understand that riven is hard not by her combo but by her laning phase facing a fucking warwick coming back to full life without any items and still dealing amazing amount of damage with cc, damage reduction, magic and physical damage, grant attack speed on missing health

    Riven was designed as a champion where being a melee is her only weakness (which is hardly a tradeoff in a game with flash), she has more than enough damage and mobility (if used wisely), and her ult unleashes her full potential, reforging the blade and increasing her range.
    but now other champs can out-damage her with no mechanics; the most unbalanced, overpowered champion by design and they're just building armor and unless a lead was acquired early game I can no longer deal enogh damage to kill this malphite who presses one button and 1shots my ADC
