Hello guys I main riven and Ill try to do my best In this guide to help you :)

Ok. So Your laning phase, depending on your enemy top laner and your enemy jungler you will play with different tactic...the worse problem on top is Pantheon vs riven but still there is alot you can do,there is no need for you to be fast as F*ck you can beat him slowly...In case the enemy spaming u hard and u lose lane you can take a double dorans blade ask for gank,freeze lane and max your E for defensive power you can dodge his spears etc.Warning in case you have maxed E dont try to fight reclesly w8 for jungler or w8 for him to make a mistake.Ok so let's see the other side where you are wining your lane, That alone doesn't mean you won the game too you have your TP gank lanes take objectives push top with wards always with wards it's importand!

You are one of the strongest champs At levels=6,11,16 ye that's the level when you upgrade your ulti :) for example Irelia's strongest levels are 5,7,9 vs riven cause of her maxed W so u consider fighting her are 6 or 11 or 16 but prefer to make her waste W on creeps or another spell too and harrash Farm harrash farm :)

Well alot of ppl flaming riven players but you cant just ignore and instalock a champ on top without countering somethink or a specific strategy!
You Could pick riven if u are sure of yourself but prefer not to first pick and prefer to play vs a no cc team!

pros
Strong early
hard to counter
high mobility
no mana
easy to play
fun to play

Cons
weak to cc
hard to master
hard late
a litlle unpossitioned on tf's

Alot of ppl farm with spells I do that Too if enemy is close he will probably start harrashing you when you have used one ability so care if u want to trade with enemy farm with AA and do him a combo for example Q-AA-Q-AA-W-AA-Q-AA-(Back)E and keep farming and harrasing if u have ward :)
