Being resourceless isn't a problem per se, it only becomes a problem when the attached kit is too good for it, which is the case with.

People don't take much issue with the lack of resources of and  because they have very well defined weaknesses that make up for it (her laning phase is weak and any hard CC screws her over; his kit doesn't synergyze well and he can be very easily harassed to invalidate almost all of his kit); however,  weaknesses are so muddy that the only truly safe way to counter her is to be the hell away from her. This wouldn't be a problem if she had a resource that could be depleted and enemies could exploit that fact to go in and screw her over, but she hasn't and that simply screws over those who play against her and those infamous Riven mains that feed like hell because they thought they had a "I Win" champion.
