I would disagree that Zeal is bad, and hence trinity force. There is never a situation in which more Move speed is not good. Move speed is good. Period. All the time, always. Whether I am running to a fight, or away from a fight, or to the baron/dragon, or chasing, or face checking. It is good. Movespeed means survivability, and choosing when a fight will or will not happen. AS is debatable. I haven't played her, but I generally believe that AS is always good as well, especially on champs that have an AD focus. Get the most out of those Autoattacks by having more of them. Increased crit chance is also good. Especially since Sheen (and it's upgrades) can crit.

Add in the Phage slows, and Riven will get a bit more utility.

The real issue is whether Tri-force is cost effective. . .I wouldn't rush a Trinity Force or a Sheen on this champ. But I'd definitely toss it on late. It's a lot of awesomeness in one item slot, and so far the Riven's I have seen have been stuck in the front of the fight vs the other tough brawlers, unable to prevent her squishes from getting killed, and unable to get to their opponents squishes.
