Trust me Interceptor, you don't even need CDR on Riven.

I trust teamfight experience and math. We all know that CDR is a stat that has increasing returns: an AOE stun on a 4.2s cooldown is incredibly useful in a fight, especially when compared to the vanilla TBC Riven with a 6.3s CD. This is to say nothing of a 3.6s Valor, which is very useful in protracted engagements, not to mention face-tanking turrets without minions for your team.

Getting an antiDPS passive, like Tabi or Randuin's, or getting an antiburst effect, like MoM's, makes you too resilent against specific damage.

Nothing wrong with a single situational defensive item: Omen for autoattackers, Maw for magic bursters, GA when the next fight is the final one, Warmog's if you are an idiot, etc. Defensive boots are fine as well. But stacking defenses? Not a great idea on Riven. If this was your plan going into a game, you picked the wrong champion. She's not the guy from DEMACIAAAAAAAA that has significant threat without building for damage.

''Again, getting CDR is just dumb on her. And on the other hand, I never said that you shouldn't need to build an offensive item, just an offensive-defensive item that fits Riven, like Atma's''

You're calling CDR dumb, and then you recommend Atma's? ATMA'S?! That item fits on Riven like a square peg in a round hole.

Being that tanky and with so much damage let's you peel efectively better in lategame or in an overextended game.

Peel? The only way for Riven to peel for her squishies is to stun people with Ki Burst, or knock them back with the third hit of Broken Wings. This requires cooldown reduction, or building an altogether stupid item like Frozen Mallet.

Riven scales like crazy with AD and CDR. It's her core. She may need a situational defensive item, but if you start building her like a tanky DPS bruiser, you are Doing It Wrong.
