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 Yone

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Back off after two Mortal Steels

    Get out of his line after two Mortal Steel (Q) hits: the next one makes him dash forward and knocks the enemies hit into the air.

  2. Avoid his hits in spirit form

    During Soul Unbound (E), avoid taking hits: when he snaps back, part of all the damage he dealt you is repeated.

  3. Trap his return

    If you have ground-targeted CC, place it on the body he left behind: when Soul Unbound (E) ends, he has to return there.

  4. Judge him by his crit items

    Judge his threat by his crit items more than his level: Way of the Hunter (passive) raises his critical strike chance, so each crit item does more for him.

  5. Don't line up with your allies

    In teamfights, don't line up with your allies in front of him: Fate Sealed (R) hits every enemy in a line and knocks them into the air toward him.
