Riven's laning is easy to explain, but hard to master.

I'll do some of the easy explaining.

Start Long Sword or Red Pot, fill with pots and, in the case of red pot, maybe a ward. At level 1, take Q. As soon as you get close enough to the enemy laner, try to Q autoattack Q autoattack Q autoattack. The more autoattacks, the better, but you can also just use next Q if you can't hit him.

At level 2, take W or E. Both can, when correctly used, give you the kill when putting them in the combo. E at start or W when close enough. If you can't kill with the help of ignite, do it at level 3 with both E and W. Only someone like Renekton could win trades against you at this point, all others will die when you can get to them with EW combo. And always try to autoattack after every ability.

When level 6, activate ult before combo, use the active when you would make the kill with it. Or at end if you miscalculated and can't kill your enemy.

Somewhat higher I also explained what skill to max first in what situation, you can look at that.
