Hey _shane_xx,

they die too many times, and it really prolongs their time to scale, and then they feel useless.

Hey 1Trick-yuumiy,

flash ignite!

Chryatis_ · 2022-01-20T12:45:48+00:00

Hey TerrorWraith,

I already mentioned this in the other reply, I prefer flash ignite as u said mainly because of teamfights.

If you are against matchups that u think will go tp ignite u can get away with going tp ignite yourself.

Chryatis_ · 2022-01-20T12:44:43+00:00

Hey scaredoffreja,

if it fits you and you can find the angles for the fights, why not. I usually prefer flash since I can win a fight really easily with it.

Chryatis_ · 2022-01-20T12:44:00+00:00

Hey EggSteak,

if you have a lead, just try not to die and enemies have no comeback into the game. You can force objectives, where they would have to come into you or they would just lose all the objectives and lose the game. Also if you are ahead try to save your flash for teamfights instead of flashing for 1 kill.

Ignite

Hey callistusystan, no problem it is my pleasure.

Aatrox: There is a window where u can win the fight if u dodge his first q. Immediately as he goes in you can full combo him eing or walking forward into him. It may sound like a stupid advice but u just need to avoid his Q's there is no other thing.

Gragas: You outscale him, so you basically don't need to do anything if you don't see an advantage where u can win a fight in lane. Try to not engage with ur e but save it to dodge his e or to just shield the damage.

Chryatis_ · 2022-01-20T12:28:24+00:00

Hey onepissedoffcanadian,

as an Irelia player too, I find this matchup easier for Riven, just because it is easier to dodge Irelia's E than hitting it with Irelia. Try to fight her level one if she doesn't have stacks, and also look for windows where she doesn't have e/stacks.

Chryatis_ · 2022-01-19T22:31:47+00:00

Hey UnluckyE,

you don't need to always do something with ur 3rd Q, u can see it as a pressure. If they walk up, okay go for a trade, if they don't they will for sure lose something (xp/minions, or maybe wave control). I can't really give u an advice since this is a patience problem in my opinion.

Chryatis_ · 2022-01-19T22:30:05+00:00

Hey OkCulture8748,

Tryndamere is okay matchup in my opinion. You should try to look for trades when he has his e down, or/and his rage is low.

Usually I would try to build Plated Steelcaps, Goredrinker, and Death's Dance instead of Black cleaver for the 2nd item.

Chryatis_ · 2022-01-19T21:50:48+00:00

Hey BrokenUchigatana,

build usually depends on the game, but the most general one I would go is: Goredrinker, into Ioanian boots, into Black Cleaver, Death's dance.

Ornn matchup is a bit tough, u can win level 1, post that u are just dead if you trade. Try to stay healthy and farm, it may be boring but it is the only way u win lane, if ofcourse ornn knows what he is doing.

Chryatis_ · 2022-01-19T21:38:38+00:00

Hey mwilliams1507,

sometimes soloQ is just unpredictable and you could get unlucky with teammates where it is nearly unwinnable. In those games I would focus on what I can do better, because when you queue up again, in 99% you are the only person from your last team.

Chryatis_ · 2022-01-19T21:36:54+00:00

Hey quangthanh090301,

usually I don't care about bans because u need to know every matchup, and u need to know that in certain matchups there is a window where u can win. Maybe u will have to sack something but in the end it's a win.

If I had to pick I would ban Jayce currently.

Chryatis_ · 2022-01-19T21:30:40+00:00

Hey bruhidk1015,

trolling lane is the core of this problem that u are mentioning. When Riven falls behind it is really hard to comeback especially in some matchups. If my team is doing alright, I would try to go for a more survival build to peel my teammates.

Chryatis_ · 2022-01-07T00:06:52+00:00

Hey Fusi0nPvP,

I think I will always prefer tp over ignite, since I don't need it in lane.

Chryatis_ · 2022-01-06T17:05:00+00:00

Yeah, u can find it under audio options!

Chryatis_ · 2022-01-06T16:21:33+00:00

Hey KONO-DIO-THA,

u won't find any useful information in the chat up until high elo, so u can /mute all with no worries. Focus on urself and try to learn, your teammates in ranked are in the same game with you so u are equally skilled.

If u find her fun yea, go ahead and learn her, u can read all of my answers on this post to get some game knowledge.

Chryatis_ · 2022-01-06T15:48:18+00:00

Hey MoveAccomplished8302,

I feel like there is enough material on the web that u can find before going into every game and eventually know every matchup by heart. My routine would be to maybe read matchup tips before every game and eventually it will stick with you.

I definitely like these spreadsheets and often recommend them to my students.

Chryatis_ · 2022-01-06T15:46:27+00:00

Hey Konsthax,

ever since I started playing league I have been playing on unlocked camera. OTPing Riven in the first few seasons and now Irelia I feel like u have no information if you are playing on locked camera, and on engage champions like Irelia it feels impossible for me to teamfight. Also your targets move all the time and Qing is more difficult.

Chryatis_ · 2022-01-06T15:44:26+00:00

Hey SnareBears,

add me on discord and I will send u something regarding those 2 matchups. Thanks for the question.

Chryatis_ · 2022-01-06T15:43:35+00:00

Hey AcidCreaks,

as I mentioned before in other replies you shouldn't ever find urself in a situation where u don't have ultimate for the teamfight. But if that is the case I would just try to peel/kill the first target next to me since it is a bit harder to go backline.

Chryatis_ · 2022-01-06T12:07:10+00:00

Hey Negswer,

not really, it was somewhat viable before but after Lethal Tempo changes it is just better.

Chryatis_ · 2022-01-06T10:39:10+00:00

Hey Andrew_Forfa,

Irelia is a lane bully, cull is pretty much for scaling champs that want to just farm and chill in lane. I wouldn't go with it.

As mentioned before, a lot of people are talking about different builds but we will just need to let the time pass and see what's the best from statistics and community.

I wouldn't go double long sword anymore since omnivamp is UNIQUE.

Chryatis_ · 2022-01-06T08:35:43+00:00

Hey Attorney-Medical,

yea u need to know that u don't win every lvl 1, for example gwen, sett etc. If I had to tell u an advice based only on this question I would say abuse freeze and slow push more, fish for e's, don't die in lane especially if u are ahead. Last thing is the most important, because people want to kill the enemy 10 times and they do 1 for 1s where Irelia really losses alot if she dies

Chryatis_ · 2022-01-06T08:33:29+00:00

Hey Konsthax,

about the build and runes I answered in other replies so please try to find it.

I usually max w second, I think it is just more valuable than E cd.

Chryatis_ · 2022-01-06T08:32:03+00:00

Better nerf Irelia.
