Even Phreak recommends Hexdrinker. She is a AD champ and guess what Hexdrinker has? Zomg AD! It has no survivability? Say wut? I gives you a bubble and magic resist. Riven is very good at farming and if you combine warmogs with atmas she is un-stoppable! Honestly Trinity Force is way too expensive and complete and utterly waste of gold for it's stats. It's passive is useless cause I wonder what her very own passive does! The...same......exact.....thing...It boggles me why people think this is a good item for her.


Omg...... The Trinity is there to stack your passive! With even more bonus dmg on auto attacks she will get even more OP! Dont you get that?...
Phreaks dosent always recommend the best items you know? ._.
L2P.


Otherwise good job! Love the guide and im voting up :D

This guide is.. .decent at least.

Still dont get the whole "MUST USE TRINITY" thing going on at the moment, trinity plain sucks on her.


Thanks to me and Elleeeeeka (love that name) for my sigs.

TOLD YOU, Also to anyone that thinks that FM and Triforce's slows can't both be used, I'm pretty sure since they're different passives they both can activate. Like any spell with a slow and Rylai's.

R > Auto Attack > E > Auto Attack > W > Auto Attack > Q > Auto Attack > Q > Auto Attack > Q > W > Auto Attack > R.

DOES ANYONE ACTUALLY KNOW WHAT THIS IS? This is the combo to use when in an engagement, after level 6. This is the reason that Trinity Force is so good on her, and to anyone who actually can't pull off this combo, then it sucks to be you. This perfectly laid out combo gives you every command, keeping in mind about CDR, that you can possibly do, to maximize efficiency. I know it takes a while to get Trinity Force, and I know some people don't like it, well then I guess don't read this guide? If you don't wanna play Riven right, don't play her at all, you freaking noobs.


Thank you everyone for the sigs. <3

i wont play with trinity force because u got a frosen mallet and for movement speed/crit/attack speed a phantom dancer has better stats. broken winge just gives 30 per lvl and 0.6/attack dmg so its not worth to skill it up to 2. ki burst gives 40/lvl and 1.0/attack dmg.



Lol, I didn't get Trinity Force for the AS/CrC/MS, also PD's are useless on her. I got it for the bonus dmg passive.

Soooooo you just pissed of every logical person here? good job, i haven't manage to do that... yet.

You DO realize that there is a 2 second CD on a trinity proc right?

You DO realize that you get around 400 more damage per 15 second from building a bloodthirster over a trinity , right? (some guy on the forums did the math, i will be back whit the link)

You DO realize that Rivens base attack damage is very low compared to other AD based champs, right?
This means that the trinity will proc for very little damage. (i thing her base is only 80-90)

Now your tinging "HEY! THAT'S STILL ABOUT 150 BONUS DAMAGE PER PROC" and that is correct.

BUT! building something like a bloodthirster gives you:

About 40-50 bonus damage on your passive,
About 60-70 more damage on your Q,
About 40-50 more damage on your W
About 70-80 more shield on your E
About 80-90 more damage on your R.

"BUT OMAGMA! TRINITY GIVES HP AND THAT'S GOOD HERP DERP"

That is true, but a bloodthirster compensates for this by making the E SUPER TOUGH.

"BUT TRINITY GIVES MOVEMENT SPEED"

Okay, a bloodthirster cant do that, BUT! how do your dear Trinity help you sustain? that's right, it cant.
can bloodthirster do that? did i hear "MASSIVE LIFE STEAL" i think i did.

"BUT TRINITY GIVES A LITTLE BIT OF EVERYTHING, IF YOU DONT BUILD IT! THEN YOU ARE A NOOB!"

That is true, but what do you need mana for? or Ap? that's basically wasted gold.


The point i am trying to make is:
Its no where impossible to make trinity work on her, but in the end of the day its just a waste of gold considering a bloodthirster is cheaper and just works about 90% better (cant ague against trinity movement speed)

You can send me a message, telling me how much i suck, just have this in mind: i don't give 2 pieces of sh*t.

Hope this told that, while i think that its cool to piss people of sometimes, at least have some reasoning behind it.
