Is Riven better when played alongside Viego?

There is no ideal champion pairing for Riven that will 100% of the time be her #1 ally. However, overall, Viego is a not very good ally for Riven. By locking into the same team as Riven, they drops their win rate by -1.3% to 48.8%. This proves that there is a bad bond between Riven and Viego that results in them performing worse together than without each other.

Viego has a much lower diffuclty than Riven. That means you don't need to be very careful when lining up Viego teammates to go into battle on the same side as, as they will require a much lower level of skill to be able to do well with you.

Playing cooperatively, Riven players will likely witness an overall large increase in your team’s ability to destroy wih physical damage. Combined, these two can tear through the other team with a lot of physcial damage.

Although, by grouping Riven and Viego together, you will not be granting your side enough magical damage output. Make sure to have other champions on your team that offsets this relative hole in their potential.

Regardless of your Viego ally's ability, you need to focus on increasing your income, warding to avoid ambushes, and clearing objectives. If you do this, you should do well anyway.
