She is going to be as annoying in LOR as she is in LOL :D
So is she the first champ without keywords or have I forgotten one?
Karma, base shyvana,, base maokai, and heimerdinger would like a word.
Reforge is a keyword buddy.
I meant the keywords like quick attack and stuff do they have a different name?
(nevermind I eat my words there's a lot of champs without quick attack/regen or something of the sort)
Nope all of them are called keywords, it's just that some of them are battle oriented while other provide utility.
I dunno, but Riven will be a decent champion. Maybe on a stronger side, but probably not overbearing. At base, she's just a Loyal Badgerbear, and will only become stronger once she actually completes her level up. She also doesn't progress her level up that quickly, because she's reliant on you having an attack token.
Overall, she can be solid, but not busted.
She doesn't have to be the one that Reforges. There are other cards that cause Reforge to happen and progress her level up.
Not that quickly?! She levels up turn 4-5 without serious problems...
Well... you still need Spell Mana saved for her pieces, and you also have to play them, slowing down her progress.
All of the spells are burst speed so you need 3 reforge triggers + 3 spell mana which is super easy to do for the deck she gets into..
I like her, I can't tell how strong she going to be, but I like the fact that she won't depend on specific region to function ( Looking at you Tahm Kench ). Or have some crazy level up requirement ( hey Zoe ).
Seems good and fun. The artwork depicts her story really well. Like it.
Riven seems really really strong given that leveling her up should be really easy to do and she is going to be a 8/5 quick attack overwheln with the blade at this point (around turn 4-5 if you play around her)
This just absurd, given you also have Survival Skills as a burst speed savior if you play any form of discard (proably draven axes) and a really solid buff spell with Sharpened Resolve she can solo carry the game like you only seen it from lvled up lee sin so far and is way more flexible with her regions since her ideal partner should be Draven (same region therefore)...
Yeah Riot overdone it with Riven i guess...
She's gonna level absurdly quick, seeing how the reforge minions cost 1 and 2 and then she reforges. I don't think she's overpowered, but she is really strong.
Also, I think she'd work well with viktor, because of get fired up and the discard draw card, as well as her doing a better job of creating spells that you actually want to play.
