Master Tier Analysis

Your Win Condition

This is one of your best matchups. The goal is to interrupt her Q3 and win the long trade.

General Strategy

Your base range advantage makes this matchup difficult for Riven. If Riven starts Long Sword, Ignite, and Nimbus Cloak at level one, she will beat your level one. Run Barrier and Flash (Source inference based on Riven's build being better than yours early).

Trading Patterns

Riven's Q1 and Q2 are mobility/damage dashes. Riven's Q3 (leap) is interruptible by your E. If she goes Q1, Q2, and then Q3, you must E into the air as soon as possible to buffer the stun. If Riven takes only short trades (Q1, Q2, W, Q3 to escape), she can win the trade.
