^Uninformed answer.

1.ArP doesn't work like that. ArP is more effective the LESS armor an enemy has(assuming that his armor is greater than your ArP).

2.Riven needs the AD for her shield and earlygame.

"I also am Otherkin. Whenever autumn rolls around I can feel my kin-type slowly taking over my body. You must know, I identify as pumpkin. I can control it pretty good most of the time, but when September ends, I just cant hold it in anymore. Whenever Im outside I see my brothers and sisters being chopped into soup, coffee, donuts, cake, drinks, bread - ppl even cut human faces into their skin, making a mockery out of their noble appearance. When I see things like that I cant control my pumpkin urges anymore. My natural instincts kick in. I then sit down motionless, while getting bright orange." - Morgana L

I tried to explain that in another thread but nobody seems to understand it.

Armour counters flat ArP, not the other way around.

Simple answer is, you don't beat a Poppy with full armor runes as Riven.

Riven has no tool to beat something like that. ALL of her damage is physical, and I've ALWAYS said the simple sure fire way to beat riven is full armor page / cloth five pots.

In fact, you're just lucky she wasn't using HP regen quints and full armor everything else. THAT would have been ****ed.

When playing Riven vrs full armor poppy who probably rushes sheen / FH, build 3 doran's blades and rush a Last Whisper.

It's the sleeper OP lane response to the meta of solo top armor stacking. ^_^

DON'T knock it till you try it, if your lane opponent builds around 150 armor, LW his arse. Unless your lane phase is just about to end and you don't care about his items anymore and want to make an impact on the early teamfights or something.

Try out my Riven's Build maybe you could have beaten Poppy with it :D

So cheap propaganda, but I revamped my build and I find it much more effective. Would be nice if somebody gives a look to it.

Support get CV, scout it out, let mage top and you mid. Honestly, I think Riven can push around an early game mage. Then toss in a ward and swap when they do. Not a perfect solution, but pisses Poppy the **** off.
