Playing as Riven

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Weave an auto between spells

    Weave an auto between each spell: Runic Blade (passive) charges your blade with each ability, and your autos spend those charges to hit harder.

  2. Save your third hit for CC

    Save the third hit of Broken Wings (Q) for CC: that leap gives nearby enemies a 0.75-second knock-up.

  3. Valor against their burst

    Cast Valor (E) just as the enemy unleashes their burst: the dash gives you a shield for 1.5 seconds, then chain into your combo.

  4. Finish with Wind Slash

    Save the Blade of the Exile (R) recast to finish: Wind Slash deals more damage to enemies missing health.

Playing against Renekton

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Trade when he's under 50 Fury

    Take a trade when his Fury is under 50: above that, Ruthless Predator (W) destroys your shields and stuns you twice as long.

  2. Trade after his dashes

    Take a trade once he has used both Slice and Dice (E) dashes: it's his only way to reach you or get out, on a 16 to 10 second cooldown.

  3. Back off when he casts Dominus

    Once he hits level 6, back off when he casts Dominus (R): he gains max health, builds Fury every second, and damages enemies around him.

  4. Drag the game out

    If you survive his first minutes, play for time: Renekton looks to get ahead in lane, before everyone has their items.
