the problematic part of riven is her EQWQQ combo, your "ranged" advantage is basically nulled since EQ's total range is (325+260) 585 which is enough for riven to catch up to you. you cannot initiate with Q nor E due to her out-ranging you, the moment you cast Q she'll dash up to your face (unless that riven is an idiot).

the trick to fighting riven isn't to "harass" her whenever, but to bait her from initiating then using your blinding dart + toxic shot for harass, then backing off immidiately with W. ALWAYS save W for running away from riven, you cannot out-run her without W.

as for a hint, level Q first then W next, this is a must as you'd have a hell of a time getting out of riven's range without W as early as level 2.
