Tips Against Riven in Top Lane Tips Provided by MOBAFire Guide Authors

Jabuti Trevoso says “Só não deixa ela crescer, guarda o teu E pra ult dela, e não toma o combo dela.”

forlid says “Riven has one of the best burst combos in the entire game, and the current meta has her building lethality early, making her extremely oppressive. You can try to poke her level 1 but keep track of when she gains level 2. With Ignite she can kill you very quickly if you're careless. You kill her mid to late game as your E scales really hard but don't get behind, as by then you can never kill her alone.”

KingJoeyy says “Huge threat for Gwen definitely winnable, buy Doran's ring, level q first get 4 stacks and get level 2 first bait her to get cs and snip her! riven has better all in potential than Gwen best to maintain good cs and trade when her q cooldown is down.”

PinkBlood says “Also unplayable matchup if the riven is good he can kill you 100 to 0 lethal with his ult + ignite. just play safe and fight when riven has no summoners and you have essence reaver. When stacking waves agaisnt riven in later stages of the game you can really harrass and kill riven in some cases due to her being quite squishy and not having much sustain.”
Eriyjah says “Resolve secondary runes with Bone Plating, rush Opportunity.”
14.6 Pantheon Ultimate Oneshot Item Guide (Keegun Style) by Eriyjah | Pantheon Player
procatking says “for this matchup runes NO.2,3 are good, take ignite and D blade.(look for one that fit your game-style). *skill matchup* The "skill matchup" here is more to her then to us, A REALLY good riven will win this but we talking about a normal to good one so... Like we love and do, poke her every time she think she can last hit minions. After she Q 2 times be ready to block/back the Q3 one. Try to avoid long term fights by quick trading with W-Q and punish her with Q&AA if she follows you. Best to call jg for a early gank to be sure winning it.”

Witchking of Angwar says “Flash/tp/exhaust This matchup gets worse the better the riven. Take bone plating and rush tabis. If she is good she can dodge or e shield all your poke. Lvl 6 do not fight her unless you have tabis and max w. She will oneshot you. You can take exhaust for cheese but tp is better since most rivens play ign so you just have to outscale (2 items) She does beat you at 5+ items though. ”

MaesePerez says “Lots of movement, hitting q can be hard if she's not silenced, she destroys you early and late game she can run away easily with her dashes and wall hops. She needs kills to outscale you, so as long as she doesn't leave lane with 3 kills or 50 cs up you should be able to catch up and outscale late. Her mobility makes her annoying to fight early, and once she snowballs its very hard to stop her from running over your backline. ”
Lynusc says “You can't lose this matchup. You can E in her CC. Q silence is very strong and nullify her burst, also Q before Ulting make sure that she can't shield. W counter riven's W and straight up reduce 30% of her damage during an early game trade. Try to win early.”

X_TRM says “(Start E/W) You can't win lvl 1 even if you cancel her Q3 with your E (both you and her will be even hp after the trade), then she will all in you after her Qs comes up again and you will die (play safe until lvl 2-3). Try to predict her W stun and use your Q Ms to catch up after she uses her Qs. Cancel her Q3 as mentioned and be very mobile with your AAs. Even if you're ahead, she will have around 40 AH and you will never be able to catch up to her. Late game is very hard to win against her so try to expand your lead as much as possible.”
