Hell, I get Wriggles for Riven whether or not I'm jungling. But yeah, you should pretty much always get Wriggles for Riven. Valor lets her solo dragon like a boss.

I was thinking like off tanky, with a little bit more DPS overall.

Item Sequence

Mercury's Treads 1100
The Brutalizer 1337
Targon's Buckler 400
Sheen 700
Phage 1100
Trinity Force 3333
Youmuu's Ghostblade 2700
Zeke's Harbinger 2250
Banshee's Veil 3100
Sunfire Aegis 2700

Haven't gotten too much time with her, but maybe instead of a ghost blade Last Whisper? This is just something I popped in my head.

I do not believe there is one way to build Riven.
Depending on which map you play her, how your team composition is and whether you prefer an aggressive or more safe play style it will always shift a little.

There are only a few don'ts:

- Mixing Trinity Force & Frozen Mallet
- buying Hextech Gunblade
- Ignoring CDR totally...
- not using the benefits of The Brutalizer when you play offensively

I personally hate trinity force on Riven. Zeal isn't any good on her, Sheen isn't any good on her, and Phage is the only useful bit remaining. Just turn it into Frozen Mallet instead.

AS-items are generally not worth it.

I typically rush Wriggle's Lantern in either jungle or solo top. It's necessary to your survival. In solo top Wriggle's Lantern can take a losing lane and instantly make it a winning lane. It gives you stupid amounts of sustain. I typically get a The Brutalizer after that and then go straight AD. The only straight survivability item I get is Guardian Angel because I find that the combination of her shield and Wriggle's Lantern and Bloodthirster give her more than enough sustain in a fight. I don't know about you guys but that build has been working out well for me when I don't get complete tards on my team (gotta build tanky at that point). Masteries are typical AD caster masteries (21/0/9 skipping over bonus crit damage) with ArPen marks, flat armor seals, MR/lvl glyphs and flat AD quints whether jungle or solo top.

Typical solo top item build:

Item Sequence

Health Potion 50
Health Potion 50
Health Potion 50
Wriggle's Lantern 1800
Mercury's Treads 1100
The Brutalizer 1337
Bloodthirster 3400
Last Whisper 1450
Guardian Angel 3200
Youmuu's Ghostblade 2700


Thanks to The Nameless Bard and Vavena for the sigs!
