Talk:Riven/@comment-26138537-20150223115021

Hi, first post here so go easy on me! >.<

As a person whose never played as riven only against her I would like to suggest some changes to her that aren't normally mentioned to see what people think.

1) Her shield should run off ap and not ad.

The arguement against that is that without her shield she is fragile and will take considerable damage when she attempts to trade with another champion. However, my arguement against that is using a champ like Ez as an example, when Ez uses his e to jump into battle he does that knowing he's also burnt his escape mechanic and by engaging with his skills he takes the risk of putting himself in danger.

The same should apply to riven, if the player chooses to engage by using their skills they should not have another skill that completely removes the danger. Basically there's no risk for a riven to engage with a trade.

2) The activation of her ult should be considerably more obvious. This one would probably make only any real difference to low elo players but then again it's the low elo that have a real hard time facing a Riven. Low elo players probably aren't awear that her ult isn't just the wind slash ability and is actually a powerful buff (I'm going to be honest here and say I'm one of them that thought that way! *shame*) With champs like Rek sai and Sion shouting to the whole map that they are using their ults I don't think it's too much to say that something like a flash or glow around Riven while her ult is active will allow players to realise that she's now buffed and that they should be moving from engaging to evading.

Otherwise I think overall she's a fair champ, yes she's strong but about half the champs at any one point are strong with enough considered 'OP' to fill both teams.

Feedback and discusion are appriciated! XD
