You can check the winrate for Diamond (or even higher) only. So Silver and Gold players are no argument for winrate. People that are new to the champ CAN make a difference to the winrate, however, the amount of games played by champions playing Riven regularly is logically higher than by playing her on chance. And if it isn't, then it's more accurate to call those few players skilled, and accept their winrate as a result of their skill.

Also, take in account, that most people got favourite champions - for usual their winrate is over 55% with those (sometimes even 70% or higher). In trade most people got an accumulated sum of champions with winrate lover than 50%. So naturally, if we'd only take those players with alot of Riven games, the win rate would go up. This though would also happen for every other champion. (A special case are "Riven only" players, obviously their rank will adjust till they arrive at a 50% winrate)
