Sorry, but the Chart isnt "Scientific Fact". first off, as star said, correlation doesnt imply causation. its a teamgame. the thing is, right now riven has just been nerfed, which caused her win rate to drop a bit (the freelo bandwaggoners who abused her old op level cant handle the new, reduced op levels, and drag it down). so that chart sadly loses meaning for now. once the win rate normalizes we will see. also, in platinum, the highest elo where garen is actually on the chart riven wins 54% of all games against garen. in other words, the highest elos where we can see it, riven actually beats garen by a huge margin. asides from that riven is also more commonly picked mid now (at least in plat-diamond). so yes. its not fact. and frankly, garen doesnt counter riven.
