It varies, but when I say to someone that an item is "core" on a champion, I mean "build this item always". The opposite of a core item would be a "situational" item, which you would only build under certain circumstances.

Riven's core build is BT and Brutalizer. Everything else, boots and TBC included, are situational in my opinion.
