  • Top lane, despite featuring arguably the largest pool of frequently picked champions, has four in particular that have developed a reputation for being some of the most ubiquitous and most often banned champions of all time. Today we'll be discussing the Four Horsewomen of Top Lane: Riven, Irelia, Fiora and Camille, and discuss what makes them so notorious.

    @chuuwen 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +526

    gwen is kept from being on the same level as the other four due to her reliance on late game scaling, since you're not guaranteed even getting to the late game. whereas she has to work towards being able to 1v1 others by building at least two full items given how low her ap scaling starts, the other four only need 1-2 components of a full item to win duels consistently. not saying she's weak by any means of course, but riven, fiora, irelia, and camille can all do "gwen stuff" far earlier in the game.

    One thing i think that also contributes to having ONE of the horsewomen viable at any given time is how different each one plays to one another, hence odds are the meta will support ONE of their playstyles.
    Lethality and flat AD strong? Riven can make use of that hard thanks to her raw AD ratios on abilities.
    Attackspeed and on hit strong? Irelia can abuse it with her Q and passive.
    Oneshot dive meta? Camille is the definetion of nuked from the other side of your screen.
    Splitpushing bruisers are busted? Fiora smashes most champs in a 1 v 1 and abuses those items really well like hullbreaker or goredrinker.
    Unless we end up in a meta thats EXCLUSIVELY mages and enchanters i can't think of any AD/tank meta that one of them can't abuse with their collective kits. (Maybe crit items? But fiora abused essence reaver and I.E and i could see irelia with Navori Shieldbow.)

      @Deaduser1122 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      On the subject of the navori irelia, I think you would only want her q on the level as fiora q but that will never happen. As fiora q is just too short of a cooldown in comparison. Maybe her e you would want to cast it twice in a fight. By the time you cast your 2nd e, you would either be dead or you killed your opponent just by the nature(dmg) of the build. I think navori would only work if you are against tanks(with bork) or maybe squishy[cuz of crit(?)] But you can still go her regular build and accomplish the thing you want from her

    HOT TAKE as someone who plays Wukong top a lot. I get super excited when I lane against a irelia riven camille and fiora (well except grasp fiora), and it's mostly because of how fun it is.
    You see, in the top lane, there are a lot of matches that feel too oneside with champs that have ver simple kits that can lead to boring gameplay. Like when I lane against a Garen or illaoi that are overtly aggressive with their damage, tankiness, healing, and resistances meaning a lot of time, I have to play passive and pray for some jg ganks. When it's champs like kayle and nasus that are very weak in the early game but since they know this, they play EXTREMELY passive using their abilities like nasus and kalye's w and prevent any engagement until late game, where they become units of destruction. Or just tanks like malphite and sion where they really don't care if they die in the early game they can just keep pushing and scale with their tank items becoming unkillable in team fights. They're very boring and unfun to play against.
    But with champs like irelia, riven camille, and fiora, when I play wukong against them its soo fun because I know I can kill them but they also know they can kill me so it's not like it's one-sided but rather unpredictable on who can outplay who given how skill express these champs are compare to wukong passive and abilities. Even when i die, I don't go oh "oh no I died this sucks" I go "damn that was soo close but this time I'll kill them for sure" and it's just soo fun. There's something so fun where you're in a match and you both know you can kill each other and just brawl out till one is fed.

    What I also noticed is that, aside from Riven, all of them have an arena-esque ability on their ult where they have total control of the area and have a significant buff when in it.
    Camille with her ult which is the forces the enemy in a single area and she also has % current hp magic damage per auto.
    Fiora with her ult where she gets extra movement speed when in it and gets immense amount of healing in an area for her and her allies when she procs all of the vitals.
    Then Irelia's ult makes it so that if they pass through the walls, they'll get damaged and she can get extra procs for her Q.

    Riven’s strength is heavily dependent on the lack of clarity her champ has. Even if you know her moves and all her basic combos she has so many unique interactions that playing against her can become a guessing game as to how much damage you’re about to take.
    Even if you know how all of her moves, combos, and interactions work you have to be on your toes at all times because she can do everything. Basically Riven has more options as of what to do in non-neutral than any other champ in the game, and that makes her incredibly hard to play against.

      Cant agree, if you play alot of Riven and you know her patterns and (more important) cooldowns its pretty obvious what is going to happen most of the time.
      If you cant Play good vs her:
      Keep a distance, when she uses all her Qs to get to you she has no DMG left. If she uses E to get to you she wastes her get away spell. If she does a burst trade into you , dont get scared. If you let her simply walk away with all her spells on CD its Auto lose. She is very weak without spells up, and in early game i often notice that people wont punish you for it (i was only Plat with her tho, if you are higher elo this might work non the less)

      good Riven players never waste anything on minions unless they don't know you're there to punish them, and I say this as someone who has NEVER player her but is so fking sick of the bullshit she does.
      you would think her Qs operate the same way as Aatrox Qs do (full cooldown after using third Q) but NOOOOOO they have their own independent cooldowns meaning she can Q 3 times, do something else and a short while later she can Q three times again, even shorter than Aatrox Qs.

      @@Valigarmanda okay so you never played her. I play her since nearly 10 seasons. And you try to tell me about what she can do and what she can't?
      Her Q is her Main damage, or better said her Q fast combo that is about canceling Your Autos with Qs and canceling your Qs with Autos. That is what oneshots people. And if she has no Qs up, she can not pull off that high DPS combo that Deals alot of dmg and allows her to retreat before she can be punished . Ofc she still has her 3 empowered Auto attacks, but you hardly win a trade vs Illaoi for example by Auto attacking her 3 times.

    This would still give her the tankbusting capabilities she has now without her being an effective counter against a FREAKING MOUNTAIN or an ARMADILLO COVERED IN DEADLY SPIKES THAT RETALIATE AGAINST ANYTHING

    11:50 As a Yorick main, I find it offensive that you could possibly put down his spike as Trinity force, an item he usually doesn't even build in high elo! He spikes at 4th item, which costs around a total of 12,000 gold, which is why he is so shit. That is, unless he has a good teamcomp matchup, where he spikes 3rd item (hullbreaker), but he needs grudge to catch and duskblade to kill. That, or you could just build Iceborn like a true memer and spike 1st item

    It's really amaizing how Riven is a far older champion than the others yet manages to be so dominant and her players always say she is not great. I genuinely think that even with her overloaded kit she would be bearable if she didn't had all those animation cancel while dealing AOE sustained burst, riot has balanced her in such a boring way imo. Still hate fiora more lol.

    • @bohomazdesign725
      @bohomazdesign725 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +10

      Wrong. Riot keeps Riven relevant only thru AD scaling buffs and it shows right now poorly Riven is aging as a champion design. Those scaling buffs obsly give her more power at the same time those dont fix a problem that Riven has - 2.1K gold (wardens + steelcaps) and the game becomes unplayable for her and those gigantic AD scalings are not helping.
      At some point they will not be able to give her more AD scaling buffs, because she will start just one-tapping enemies with her abilities instead of her autos, so they will need to give her some armour pen / shred or % health damage in exchange of AD scaling nerfs.
      Btw Irelia has a similar problem, but its not as severe as in Rivens case, because Irelia has mixed damage and can itemize Blade of Ruined King.
      And that leaves us with Camille and Fiora that are the most consistent out of those 4 and that thanks to their ability to deal True Damage which makes them always relevant no matter the meta while Riven and Irelia are borderline unplayable in a Tank meta.

      Yes, Seryldas and BC are a thing, but the problem is that she needs 3100 Gold to counter 2100 Gold and then she has to opt into her mythic which means her enemy gets to build another 2 items before she can itemize into Seryldas. Its like an endless chase except you are on the backfoot all the time and you cant really get the resources you need, because 2100 Gold just shuts her down. In other words unless someone is stupid enough to feed Riven in the early game she cant do anything for like 25 minutes (3 items).
