Riven has a limit.. its called Health and low (very low) regen and very little armor. I see many Fighters/assassin champions killing with as much ease as Riven because they wait for their opportunity to strike. That's what assassins do. Good assassins don't go 5 on 1 because the odds are not to their advantage. They don't charge through the front door. A good assassin plans carefully and waits for the opportunity to strike. Riven is pure offense with little to no defense. No skilled Riven player is going to sacrifice Riven's strength to try to counter her weakness. Each champion has a style of play. The closer you can approximate that style and learn its advantages and disadvantages the better you'll be in any champ. Play Riven and go up against some of the tanker champs and see how well you fair. Its easy to see someone skilled dominating as Riven and say she's OP, but that's just your ego. Go try to replicate it yourself and see how close you reach the mark.
