Riven doesnt have the assassin tag on her becuz she lacks an instant gapcloser or stealth and thats about it.

There are already many arguements regarding this so instead of giving my own im gonna give you something better.

most played and highest win rate Riven players. go through those names and look at their match history to find their Riven builds. some had a couple of offbeat items but most had BT,BC,GA, and LW as a core on their builds. the only who built "tanky" was the 800elo player.

you can check my name as well i was 1600elo last season with over 150 games and i stand by the damage build. im at 1500 right due to lack of playing cuz of school.

the point of all this is to show you that its been proven with results(elo) that going damage on her is overall better, numbers dont lie.
