Agreed.

I play(ed) Riven a lot, too, and she really needed some work.

She was strong yeah (as far as I can tell with my limited experience, anyway), but I only just unlocked her and now they nerf her already, QQ :(

Still gonna main her, so much fun to play :3

Riven's level one will be more sick than ever, now when her Q is getting buffed, i sense many first blood got by Riven. Nerf on her stun won't really matter when she gets 1 or 2 levels ahead of opponent.

Overall this actually looks like a good patch. I've never had trouble with Riven and I'm completely unaware of her strength. Probably because I've never seen an exceptional Riven. Jax changes are interesting, and actually will improve his laning power. As well the "on command" stun was something we all suspected, the fact that it is now realized with a "troll roll" to boot is to keep him competative.

Removal of dodge is w/e RNG is fun to an extent....But the chain dodges an opponent got just made you want to scream. Or if the dodge procs didn't happen when you were wearing them, you felt like Tabi were a waste. These "new" boots will be interesting.

No she wasn't. Her Broken Wings hit like a wet noodle, and her Ki Burst was her only "real" damage dealer. Now her AD scaling is a little OP but could be countered with Thorn Mail and the old Ninja Tabi's.

Looking forward to this slight Riven-nerf, i was always a fan of her Q Ability and hope its now worth lvling up first


It's not really a nerf it's more of a balancing. Only thing there really "nerfing" is her HP/5 which I never really noticed anyways and making her Ki Burst less of a nuke and more of a cc ability.

Right now you max her Ki Burst and you get both cc and damage.
After the change you'll need to choose between damage by maxing Broken Wings or cc by maxing Ki Burst.

Sounds like something that'll make her weaker overall to me :|

She should still be fine though.

I think I like the new Ninja Tabis a lot :) If their damage reduction is not ridiculously low...

She really, really was.

Broken Wings didn't hurt, but it was THREE flashes with a BUILT IN CC that procced her passive THREE times. If it did hurt it would be far too strong on the current Riven.

Ki Burst really wasn't her real damage, her passive hurts. A lot.

Anybody that does physical damage could be "countered by" Thornmail.
