character knowledge =/= skill

80% win rate in NORMALS means next to nothing to most people. however if you read enough of the posts here in wikia, you will find out that most of these people dont even play rank.

He isn't the only one telling people to build BT. Anyone half way decent with an operational brain knows that BT works her. You said it yourself "I'm aware that BT adds to her kit more than ...." Thats why people build BT on her becuz it adds to her kit more than anything else!

No one builds straight armor and health on her becuz it destroys where she shines the most, mid game teamfights. Building Warden's mail and Frozen mallet adds nothing to her kit, she is not a stand still auto attacking bruizer. Building these items adds nothing to her late game becuz she becomes nothing more then a meatshield that does no damage.

Riven beats Singed if you dont know why go learn the matchup.

Riven will never beat Yorick no matter what you build.

Nid is a farmfest because of her heal.

You make fun of him being an "unranked twit" and yet you bring AD kennen to the top lane. Kennen is rare enough, AD kennen is close to never.

If someone is "bad at last-hitting under pressure" then wouldnt having more attack (like a BT) help you cs as you will be doing more damage?

I have no idea why you brought up random maokai to lane matchups, does the Riven have no jungler or am I not allowed to bring one in to serve your purpose better?

I dont care much for Leyrann, as you said he doesnt play ranked past 1000elo so his actual matchup experience against champs of a decent level is next to none. However he does have of character knowledge of Riven when it comes to damage combo and build.
