Riven

Riven

Can you guys tell me a good build on her?
I always go for Brutalizer>Hydra>Black Cleaver>LW>Ninja Tabi(boots)>Frozen Mallet>Guardian Angel or Bunshees.

Is that a good build?
I do damage with it, but sometimes get outdamaged hard. Also can you guys give me some good tips on playstyle and build?

Thanks!

I usually start Hydra - Brute - LW - Youumuu's

Hydra should be built first in some cases. Usually instead of cleaver I'd get ghostblade. Don't buy tabis unless they have 4-5 ADs. Get a randuins or banshee's; a frozen mallet is gold inefficient and isn't very useful on Riven. Also, GA may be needed before randuins/banshee's.

Dont build Black Cleaver so early.

Depends on the matchup, but usually brutalizer > hydra > youmuu's > cdr boots > lw > bt > defensive item (ga possibly).

don't play her much but I mainly did

Tiamat>bruta, depending if it was a big that would finish hydra or go lw, then ghostblade>Bt...

black cleaver should be a 4th - 6th item order

i usually go for merc instead of ninja

HYDRA > BRUT > LW > BT > BLACK CLEAVER/GB > GA/BANSHEES/RANDUIN

I found Brutalizer not a good option for Riven early, simply because I suck in terms of CSing. Therefore, Tiamat into Ravenous is what I usually go as it helps in my farming, followed by BloodThirster, Last Whisper, Ionian/Merc boots. If I manage to get to a point in game where I require the last two items, it's usually Maw, followed by Randuins or even Black Cleaver. It's mostly up to preference, though.

I feel like anything besides Brutalizer -> Hydra -> Lucidity -> LW -> BT -> GA -> Youmuu is useless on her. You want to focus on AD, LS, CDR and Armor Pen and start snowballing from lvl 3.

Ok so instead of Brutalizer, Imma try ghost blade and see how it goes and also switch out tabi for mercs. Will post results as soon as I finish the game.

Never rush Hydra, wanna have at least cd boots or a brut before hydra otherwise you're losing out on damage.

I've always wondered. Is Riven good as full tank?

Tryed it... Not at all. She's mobile but doesn't have a lot of dmg.
