Tips for Playing as Trundle with Riven

Use Subjugate to soften a powerful enemy tank or to create a target for your team to focus fire.

Trundle excels at fighting within his Frozen Domain. Try to draw enemies onto it.

Chomp is good for lowering the physical damage of enemies; try to focus it on enemy physical damage dealers.

Advice to Understand How Riven Will Play

Riven lacks a source of healing or strong defense and must compensate with burst combos. Lead into fights with Broken Wings and Ki Burst, while using Valor to escape and absorb counter-harass.

Riven's Broken Wings locks onto the champion your cursor is over at the time of cast. If you want to move past your opponent, make sure that your cursor is past your opponent as well.
