The best advice I can offer if you plan on going r0ven, is that her laning phase is quite the bit more hellish now, with far less sustain until she gets her lifesteals into her. LS quints could work, but that can be spent elsewhere. Doran Shield's getting a nerf, so you might as well start sword for the extra statis LS. First things first (for me, at least), is that I go into lane (durr). After hopefully not getting beating the living garbages out of lane,  (and hey, if you're lucky/brave/dumb enough for a kill, better), go buy crap, the usual. My first preference is to rush Hydra, because it helps her waveclear without having to spend her combos, as well as giving her an extra attack at the end of her knockup for some nice damage. If you're ahead of the enemy, built Tiamat first. If you're falling behind/want to be safer/sustain better, get vamp scepter first. Finish your Hydra, and that'll be a good amount of damage for  you. After you got Hydra down, go for your Brutalizer, because armpen and CDR can't ever go wrong on Riv. When you've gotten that built, go ahead and get your Ionians for more CDR, (though those might be getting nerfed to 10% soon, but still worth. It's your resource, hey) and then you pick and choose from there. If they neglected a tank, sucks to be them, build a Bloodthirster, especially if you got fed. If they have tanks, build Last Whisper, and then build into Black Cleaver if you really feel the need (bonus tank bit, too!) If you're getting trashed by mages/magic, build Visage.

In other words, Riven's really about the same stuff, it's just that you have to be plenty safer in laning, and Fortitude does not mean first blood anymore as easily.

Not the best Riv out there, but this is what I can try.
