there's few hard counters she's a pretty safe pick

yorick: definitely a bully in lane you're going to have a hard time, but if you don't die you'll be stronger then him soon, with new half heal on creeps i think it's more balanced now

ahri: yeah ahri top angush played it vs someone with riven can't remember who but he got stomped,  the charm  stops dashes, the harass has good range   and  there's true damage in it  + she has sustain

with proper bush warding  it's  really really hard for riven vs ahri (i think by leveling shield first riven can somehow deal with it.)

garen/renekton: don't try to trade early, just don't : giving them free kills ain't cool

the only moment when you should attack them in lane early is :

1) your jungler is on his way top

2) they're coming in your creep wave to   CS  and you can get a free clean hit and gtfo in the creeps

jayce :  ranged  AA, ridiculous MS boost, hammer hit which is pretty much an ali headbutt

i hate him, he deals freaking high damage wiht 0 gear   and can be ranged.

try to make him run oom, hard lane imo

riven doesn't have many champs who shut her down totally, that's why she's a safe pick.

she's just less played in last tournament because:

rumble was ridiculously OP with his fix

malphite is FoTM because of jax being kinda imba late , and his  ability to shut carries down.

shen splitpush

shyvana quick counterjungle top laner

lot's of double ap comps
