Guide to Countering Riven as Quinn

Tips for Playing as Quinn against Riven

Attacking a

Vulnerable

target marked by Valor will put Harrier on cooldown. Quickly consuming Harrier marks will allow you to generate them faster.

Use Behind Enemy Lines for traveling very long distances quickly, for farming minions around the map, or for chasing wounded targets.

Vault is powerful but must be used with caution, as enemies can attack Quinn when she strikes them. Vault can sometimes be used to cross terrain if your back is to a wall.

Advice to Win Against Riven

All of Riven's damage is physical, prioritize high Armor if an opposing Riven gets out of control.

Riven has a great deal of mobility but she cannot move very far with any one skill. Rooting or silencing her during her combo will greatly reduce her effectiveness.

Riven excels at dueling multiple melee attackers at once, as she will be on an almost equal footing damage-wise. If pairing up against Riven, don't go in as double melee until she has expended her full combo.
