This clearly indicates that there is a harmful strategic relationship between Riven and Shaco that allows them to perform not as well together than without each other.
Shaco has a greater difficulty than Riven. That means Riven players should be careful when arranging Shaco allies to fight alongside, as they will require a greater level of skill to be able to play well with you.
Fighting alongside, you will likely observe an overall large increase in your team’s capability to destroy wih physical damage. Combined, these two should be able to take down targets with auto-attacks and other AD damage abilities.

Regardless of the skill of your Shaco ally, you need to focus on maximizing your income, outlasting your enemies, and taking down objectives. If you heed this simple advice, you should do well, regardless.
