Good in depth guide, I liked your explanations. maybe not an introductory guide to Riven, but definitely great for anyone who's played her much or knows the game. consider changing your section on Valor it is incredible and incredibly useful. helps escape or get closer to use abilities. just a suggestion, i didn't read the entire guide, so maybe you covered this already. anyways, great guide. :) +vote

Hi guys...

will update the guide really soon so it mirrors the recent patch changes. Just gimme some time, my day job occupies a lot of time right now.
But I can say that my top summoner spell choices are still valid, and the mastery tree has already been updated in the pocket guide section.

Cheers

Dude, awsome guide. I've bought Riven awhile ago but never played with her. Since I read your guide every 3v3 game I use Riven!

Awsome!

Force of Nature is a great item when matching very ap heavy teams. I only use it if the enemy team damage output is 80% or more magical damage as this item alone will push you far above 100 magic resist with given rune set.
If I dominate games against AP champs I do not buy it, I buy more AD items to eliminate them even quicker. or maybe only invest in a Hexdrinker just in case.
But if you have the feeling that one or more AP champs start to become quite fearsome then Force of Nature is a good choice. It also gives you some more mobility, which is never wrong for Riven and some really nice hp/5. I take this item a lot when I play very tanky DPS, but with Riven I only use it ultra rarely. If it had flat health on it instead of the regeneration I would much more prefer it with Riven.
Most cases I will stick to Hexdrinker because the extra damage FON stops would only be around estimated 8% as Hexdrinker instead of Aegis of the Legion should bump your magic resist to around 120 which is close to fifty-five percent reduction whereas Force of Nature should give you around 63%. As your health pool in my build is not that big until you put in something like Frozen Mallet the effective health gain by wearing Force of Nature seems not that cost efficient for me.

Here's a graph for you that shows how damage and MR correlate: y- axis = damage ; x- axis = MR

TL; DR:

Force of Nature is ok; I would recommend to buy Hexdrinker instead of the aegis- if you want to skip it- as it also gives you some more damage and also pushes Valor a little.

Thx mate. But remember that I have done this only thanks to your help here. By the way I would have another question. What do you think of the item called: Force of Nature?
Are there situations where you would build it? Maybe instead of Aegis of the Legion?

BTW: Haha, i dont know how many times I was called noob for such an action :p

Nice stats :)
Whenever I am on a short winning streak I land up in "I leave the match after 5 levels" town or one of my team-mates died by Tryndamere 10 times before he even hit level 10 :D

Congrats to your flawless streak.

BTW: I love it, too, when I stop the enemy team from killing to of my own, maybe taking one of the enemies down in the process just to hear "WTF are you doing! Noob! Stop feeding!!!11" ;)

Here some stats from my last Riven games :)

I must admit, sometimes I'm dying too often, but that happens because in certain situations I simply plunge into the enemy to save my group cause that they they focus me but 2 other members can get away.
