Riven mangelt es an Heilfähigkeiten und guter Verteidigung, weshalb sie sich darauf verlassen muss, viel Schaden auf einmal verursachen zu können. Eröffne Kämpfe mit „Gebrochene Schwingen“ und „Ki-Schwall“ und benutze „Heldenmut“, um zu entkommen oder einen Gegenangriff abzuschwächen.
Rivens „Gebrochene Schwingen“ zielt auf den Champion, der sich bei der Aktivierung unter dem Mauszeiger befindet. Soll Riven am Gegner vorbeiziehen, muss sich auch der Mauszeiger hinter diesem befinden.
Kann Varus einen Todesstoß erzielen oder hat er bei einem Kill geholfen, dann erhält er kurzzeitig zusätzliches Angriffstempo, was ihn noch viel gefährlicher macht.
Du wirst an Ort und Stelle festgehalten, falls dich eine der Ranken von Varus' ultimativer Fähigkeit, „Kette der Verderbnis“, erreicht. Du kannst dem aber entgehen, wenn du der Ranke lange genug fernbleiben kannst.
Stehst du unter dem Einfluss von Varus' Verderbnis, so erleidest du zusätzlichen Schaden.
