Quote \| PM \| +Rep by Blowfeld » January 11, 2012 7:12pm \| Report Will not vote on your guide... Having 6 points in Ki Burst and only 2 in Blade of the Exile makes your guide look a little sloppy... Also, if you play solo top and choose those runes and masteries I will eat you alive in a mirror match as you will bite the dust early game. Just some constructive criticism.

Quote \| PM \| +Rep by clim » January 11, 2012 8:02pm \| Report there are many things i disagree with in this guide. i agree with blowfeld too, in a mirror match you would be destroyed straight up damage runes with no resistances make you a very vulnerable target especially since you barely build any resistances or put masteries into them. if you were going for pure damage.... you should just stack The Bloodthirster its: 1st, 2nd, 3rd...etc not 1th, 2th, 3th Berserker's Greaves aren't that great of an item on riven and if i'm buying a 7th item on riven i wouldn't be shooting for Hexdrinker, i would be going for Force of Nature or Guardian Angel	clim Posts: 4 Joined: 2011-11-05

Quote \| PM \| +Rep by rawrcat » January 11, 2012 8:17pm \| Report disagree with clim that Hexdrinker is a very viable buy and amazing earlygame counter item for an AP team that can put you ahead if used well. I have great interest in riven for becoming my second main champion, but full on AD runes doesnt seem like the right idea. I think her broken wings is priority for me, but can you explain the advantages of putting ki burst past level 1 or maxing valor before? I have no idea how her ult works passively either. please explain that in depth because i just use it to last hit nuke :o My Comprehensive Guide to Blitzcrank: http://www.mobafire.com/league-of-legends/build/definitely-not-that-same-***-blitzcrank-168987 <3	rawrcat Unremarkable (6) Posts: 61 Joined: 2012-01-04 IGN: Chariie on NA

Personally, If i was to put the hexdrinker somewhere in that sequence it would probably be the second or third item i buy. I do agree with maxing ki burst first and valor second though. maxing ki-burst first means lower cooldowns on those stuns. maxing valor second gives you better survival in the laning phase since it scales very well.	clim Posts: 4 Joined: 2011-11-05

Didnt notice that. Yes defintely for Hexdrinker as a 2nd buy :3 its usually the first items to be resold if fully built.

Quote \| PM \| +Rep by LoLLarN » January 12, 2012 6:35am \| Report It all depends on you look at it, this is my own way of building, no one ends up thinking the same I would guess, not on everything atleast. And how I spec might be wrong as it is killing my eyes. Anyhow, it says "Noxian" and not "Noxius". "In Noxus, any citizen may rise to power regardless of race, gender, or social standing - strength is all that matters." "Noxian soldiers followed the terrifying Zaunite war machines across fields of death." Also I might write stuff wrong but no one ends up being perfect, I've dyslexia and I come from Sweden, I don't think it matters how I write it as people still end up to understand what I mean. I choose to grab my flat AD runes to make your Valor stronger in early game, I go tanky spanky, therefore I go Valor as secound spell, I agree that Ki Burst is a great stun, with really low CD. Anyhow, thanks for checking my guide out, I hope it still helped you some. My way of playing Riven must not be your way.	LoLLarN Posts: 1 Joined: 2012-01-08
