Matchup tier list
I wanna see the community consensus on riven matchups so I came up with a tier list based on experience + what ppl say, please feel free to disagree plus I don’t have many games on riven and by no means am high elo.
Notes:
I mainly considered how easy (or hard) the early lane is as opposed to throughout the game, so some matchups can be easy but get harder throughout.
Unplayable: like, unplayable. Either cheese level 1, suffer in lane or don’t lane
Cassio: think I’ve only played her once and its definitely playable, but pretty challenging to play around her w and damage is surprisingly high, but will oom quickly
Zaahen: Super difficult if he has ignite/exhaust and will outscale, have to space rly well
Teemo: d shield second wind sustain but he takes boneplating and runs around pretty damn fast, will Q your combo and skedaddle with W. Probably easier for more experience players but for me ive mostly struggled.
Fiora: hard with exhaust
Illaoi: Hit by E u lose unless u can burst, dodge e u win
Garen: surge he has less pressure, conquerer you can trade back, have to space well and proc passive
Ornn/ksante: win lane early but after first back gets super tough, I find ornns damage more frontloaded tho
Yone: hard with exhaust
Darius: cannot win this matchup for the life of me
Ambessa: slightly hard with electro + exhaust, otherwise you steamroll her
Yas/GP/irelia/camille: on them to play better than you
Yi: played against a few, good yi will hold q for q3 and can prob win level 1, but just make sure not to dump your kit into his w
Cho/sion: rush eclipse but still tanky, HoB AP cho can be pretty tough
Kayle/dog/mundo: free lane but outscales, just freeze and zone
What do yall think
