Major Riven Misconception: Some Riven players think Riven is an ideal duelist. This is false. Riven makes a poor and vulnerable duelist. This is due to her squishyness and reliance on her combo. It is easy to get outsustained in a duel as Riven once your combo is deplenished. As a Riven player you should aim to murder your opponents instead. Attempt at burst and don't allow them to retaliate through retreat or death. If you know either your combo won't kill them or if they have the ability to survive and turn around on you, don't fight. It is also not a bad idea to use the 3rd proc of q to get away after a short burst trade in lane. Using the 3rd proc aggressivly after a trade would only create an all in in which you must aim to kill your opponent/chunk them as low as possiable.
