Tristana vs Riven

Confidence mediumUpdated Jun 10, 2026

Overview

Use level 2 all-in windows with support follow-up to punish Riven's cooldowns early.
Exploit Tristana's range and turret pressure to convert winning trades into plates.
Avoid passive wave states that expose you to Riven's mobility and burst combos.

Trading pattern

Stack (E) fully during committed trades to maximize burst and turret pressure.
Jump in only when enemy disengage is down and support CC locks Riven.
Punish Riven after she uses (Q) and (E) by stepping forward before her cooldowns reset.

Danger windows

Respect Riven's full combo when (Q), (W), and (E) are up with (R) execute ready.
Avoid jumping into large minion waves where minion damage and enemy peel punish.
Be cautious when (W) stun or third (Q) knockup are available; they enable her burst trades.

Early game

Push for level 2 quickly and jump only when support can follow for a kill attempt.
Thin waves to avoid large minion aggro when jumping forward.
Reset trades immediately if (W) jump has no follow-up to prevent counter-engage.

Power spikes

Level 2 spike enables sudden all-ins with (W) and (E) burst; push for this.
First completed marksman item increases all-in burst and turret plate threat.
Late-game range and reset potential allow safe extended trades and cleanup fights.

Win conditions

Force early kills or recalls to crash waves and take turret plates with (E).
Use resets from kills to reposition aggressively or escape after all-ins.
Leverage level and item advantages to control mid-game objectives through lane dominance.

Tip: For Tristana vs Riven, read overview, trading pattern, and danger windows first for a fast Mid lane check.
