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.

Is Riven better when played alongside Elise?
There is no one best synergy for Riven that will always be her top ally. However, Elise is a fantastic ally for Riven. By being on the same team as Riven, she raises their win rate by 3.0% to 53.1%. This proves that there is a very real bond between Riven and Elise that allows them to perform better together than without each other.
Elise has a greater difficulty than Riven. That means you should be cautious when lining up Elise allies to go into battle on the same side as, as they will have to have a greater level of skill to be able to cooperate well with you.
Playing alongside, Riven players will likely observe an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to deal physical damage. Together, these champs should be able to take down targets with auto-attacks and other AD damage abilities.
Although, by aligning Riven and Elise together, you will not be providing your side a lot of crowd control. We recommend you include other champs on your team that neutralizes this disparity in this pairing's capabilities.
Regardless of the ability of your Elise teammate, you need to focus on increasing your income, staying alive by avoiding foolish fights, and taking down objectives. If you do this, you should do well anyway.
