From rumors I have heard that faker used Riven to carry himself to (Diamond, Challenger?) on his NA account iwthin 2 weeks or something like that.

Might be a bit overexaggerated, but it just shows how potent she can be in the hands of an experienced player.

Also, a champion doesn't need to roflstomp in a tournament  to be nerfed, sometimes Riot stops to be the proplayer's personal balance slaves and does something nice for the not-so-famous part of the community too (yes, cynical much)
