Who Wins

  • You lose most pre-6 trades due to her burst combos and crowd control, but you can start winning post-6 when your R allows you to survive her burst and turn fights around.
  • Focus on surviving the early game rather than trying to match her trading power.

How to Trade

  • Your best trading pattern is to let her engage first, then use your superior sustained damage once her abilities are on cooldown.
  • Save W for when she tries to disengage with E, as the slow can secure extended trades where you excel.

Wave Control

  • Allow her to push early while you focus on farming safely and stacking Q for sustain, then look for freezes once you have items and levels.
  • You want longer lanes post-6 to maximize your chase potential with ghost and R.

Mistakes to Avoid

  • Don't try to match her early game aggression or you'll fall too far behind before reaching your power spikes.
  • Never waste R too early in fights - wait until you're actually low on health, as good Rivens will disengage and re-engage after your R expires.
