Please Vote Yes if you think my Guide helpe you!
If you have questions or ideas to make my Guide better, please comment it!
I hope I can help you with this Guide if u decide to buy Riven and play with her.
Important:
Don't cast all the three times of
Broken Wings after each other, after each times used, hit your opponent, this will do extra damage, cause of her passive
Runic Blade!
Items
oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Boots of Speed and 3
Health Potion Helps you to start, you are fast and can refresh 450 HP.
oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
2
Doran's Blade's gives you togehter 20 Damage, 160 Health and 6% Lifesteal. For the beginn of the game it's enogh and helps u to dominate your lane!
oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
The Bloodthirster Its the first Item u should buy, cause it does lots of dmg, and additionally you have the livesteal.
oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Ninja Tabi or
Mercury's Treads depends on your opponents. Take the one you need more Armor/Magic Resistence.
oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Maw of Malmortius gives you Magic Resist, damage and a great effect, which helps u to fight against mage! This Effect gives you a magic shield, if a Skill deals more than 30% of your maximum Health. Another Passive is, you gain 1 Attack damage for every 2,5% missing Health!!
oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Guardian Angel gives you great amount of Armor and Magic Resist and this great passive of a second life! Really useful in endgame, if teamfight and u get focused...
oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Frozen Mallet gives you Life and damage and this slow...so nobody can run away from u except
Master Yi.
Pros / Cons
Pro:
- Heavy to kill
Riven - Lot's of Health caused by
Frozen Mallet - Her
Blade of the Exile casted a second time is great to kill champs who are running away. - She have an AoE Stun
Ki Burst (Nice to farm). - She can jump through minions with er
Broken Wings, and dont collide with them. - Her
Valor can shield at the end of the game a lot of damage, and this is a great skill do escape!
Riven has no
Mana
!!
Cons:
- She needs a second one in fight, cause
Riven is no carry, but if u get fed, it's no problem anymore. - You easy get boisterously and don't think about your opponent skills.
- Your Stun of
Ki Burst is just a halfe of a second!
Skill Sequence
Priority has your ULTI! If you cast him first time, your sword gets very fat, and you get extra damage. If u cast
Blade of the Exile a second time, you can shoot a cone in a direction, which is doing more damage, the less life your opponents have! This skill is great do kill
Flashed people, cause it has a nice range!
Max your W first, cause id does the greatest amount of damage! U stun in an Area around u the opponents for 0,5 seconds. Thats not very long, but it's enogh. Nearby this skill does the biggest damage of
Riven, therefore i max it always first.
This skill i great to farm minions...more details see bottom at Chapter Farming.
The next skill u max first is your E, cause te amount of shieldet damage increases each time u lvl up this skill! This skill is your first skill you should aktivat at start of your Combo. More Details of Combo see bottom at Chapter Combo.
The last you can max is your Q, then you are 18! This is also a good skill do escape, cause u can jump through minions, so skill, which hit first one in a line, u can defend, cause it will hit a minion, if u jump through it. Also great is, that the 3rd use of
Broken Wings push's your Target away from you.
Masteries
I choosed tank masteries, cause in the early game it's more useful to have 50 Armor with lvl1 and 47 Magic Resist and extra Health than the extra damage if your opponent is under 20% of his Health...
AD-Masteries
Summoner's Wrath
just that i can choose my next Mastery
Brute Force
for the extra damage at lvl1.
Alacrity
for the extra Attack speed.
Weapon Expertise
The extra Armor Penetration helps you to kill Tanks/Tanky Champs easier.
Typical Tank-Masteries
Resistance
and
Hardiness
for extra Armor and Magic Resist.
Durability
and
Vigor
for extra Health and Health Regeneration
Veteran's Scars
30 Health are not nothing...at lvl1 if you get lowlive and one
Ignite's you, the 30 Health can safe your life!
Enlightenment
Because you have no
Mana
with
Riven, you spamm your skills as often you can. This Cooldown-Reduction is very helpful on Champs without Mana!
Honor Guard
For Tanks Important, cause it reduces the damage you should get from opponents...in lategame 1,5% of damage could be 15 damage less if one hits you with 1000 crit.
Juggernaut
3% more Health is a lot...at 18 with 2662 Health it increases the health at 79! And all debufftimes get decrease at 10%!
Combos
There are lots of possible Combos, but the one with the biggest effect of damage is the following combo below:
Up to LVL6:
- Activate your Ulti
Blade of the Exile
- Open our Combo with
Valor To jump next to your Target.
- Next step is to hit him with Autoattack to activate your passive
Runic Blade.
- Then use your Q
Broken Wings One Time
- Hit your Opponent with Autoattack to activate your passive
Runic Blade.
- Cast
Broken Wings a 2nd Time.
- Hit your Opponent with Autoattack to activate your passive
Runic Blade.
- Jump over him with 3rd time
Broken Wings and knock him back.
- Use your
Ki Burst to stun him and do great damage.
- Now you can use your E
Valor again to get in range of the
- 2nd time to use your ulti
Blade of the Exile to kill your Target!
With LVL3-5:
- Open our Combo with
Valor To jump next to your Target.
- Next step is to hit him with Autoattack to activate your passive
Runic Blade
- Then use your Q
Broken Wings One Time
- Hit your Opponent with Autoattack.
- Cast
Broken Wings a 2nd Time.
- Hit your Opponent with Autoattack.
- Jump over him with 3rd time
Broken Wings and knock him back.
- Use your
Ki Burst to stun him and do great damage.
- Now you can use your E
Valor again to restart your combo!
Farming
Up to you have
The Bloodthirster, you want to farm a lot, to get the Stacks of it full.
There is one good combo to Farm with
Riven:
Each Autoattack choose another minion to get them all low live.
Broken Wings 1st Time
- AutoAttack and her passive
Runic Blade to Left Minion
Broken Wings 2nd Time
- AutoAttack and her passive
Runic Blade to Middle Minion
Broken Wings 3rd Time
- AutoAttack and her passive
