The broken sword shall rise once more. Riven is in TFT with her broken sword, and funny enough, she can break enemies’ hearts as well. Riven is a really strong choice in TFT, as she uses many of her skills.

Riven is a strong frontliner as she has three traits that make her powerful: the Anima Squad, Defender, and Brawler.

This is a comprehensive guide to placing Riven in TFT to ensure you win your games and finish first with your sword.

Riven is a strong choice, as her traits make her a beast on your board. The Anima Squad trait makes her gain additional health, along with the Brawler trait, which increases her maximum health by a percentage.

Best comps for Riven

3) ADMIN SYSTEM

Synergies:

• 6 Brawler
• 2 A.D.M.I.N.
• 2 Defender
• 2 Aegis

This is a mid-fast reroll to level 8, so make sure to get everyone on your board to level 3 as most of them cost 2-3 gold, except for Soraka, Sejuani, and Ekko, which you should get to level 2 at least.

This comp revolves around the A.D.M.I.N. trait and the Brawler trait, which both would give you a huge advantage along with the other active traits such as the Aegis.

Best team for this comp:

1-Jax would be the main damage dealer on your team, sharing the Brawler trait, which would give him tonnes of extra health.

2-Riven would be the second damage dealer if equipped with damage items, or a massive tank if equipped with defensive items.

3-Soraka would deal a lot of damage because she shares the Heart trait from the backlines and activates the ADMIN trait.

4-Lee Sin would be sharing the "heart" and "brawler" traits, which is a great benefit for your team.

5-Vi would be sharing the brawler and aegis traits.

6-Sejuani is a huge frontline, as she is one of the best tanks in TFT as she shares the Brawler trait.

7-Ekko would shield himself, which would make him able to sustain more damage while also sharing the Aegis trait.

8-Blitzcrank is a good frontline activator of the Brawler trait.

2) ANIMA TEAM

Synergies:

• 3 Prankester
• 5 Anima Squad
• 2 Mascot
• 2 Aegis
• 1 Ace

The Anima Squad trait serves as the competition's primary trait, with supporting traits like Aegis, Prankester, and Mascot.

Since most of the champions are higher than 3 gold, this is a slow-fast reroll to level 8, but don't forget to get Jinx and Nasus to 3 stars.

Best group to create this:

1-As a member of the Anima Squad, which provides her with additional health, and the Ace, which causes her to kill adversaries, Miss Fortune will deal the majority of your damage.

2-Jinx deals a lot of damage from the back lines as a member of Anima Squad and Prankester.

3-In the back lines, Vayne would be a wise choice because she can aid the Anima Squad and deals substantial damage.

4-Zoe would set foes on flames with his trait "Prankster."

5-Ekko would complete the set of three Pranksters and, because he self-shields, he would be a fantastic frontliner with increased damage resistance.

6-Because he possesses the Mascot and Aegis qualities, which provide your squad high utilisation, Alistar is a necessity.

7-The fourth person in the Anima Squad is named Riven. She would be a tremendous frontliner, do a lot of damage, and be a great choice.

8- Nasus would result in your Anima Squad being set to 5 and your Mascots being set to 2, which is extremely advantageous for your team.

1) SYLAS HP

Synergies:

• 3 Prankester
• 5 Anima Squad
• 2 Mascot
• 2 Aegis
• 1 Ace

The Anima Squad feature, which provides your team with a lot of damage that accumulates over time, is the foundation of this team.

Miss Fortune would be a true beast in the late game when she had a lot of stacked damage to do damage.

If you have more than 50 gold, this combo automatically rerolls to level 8 to ensure that everyone with less than 4 gold reaches level 3.

The ideal group to create this is:

1-Miss Fortune can deal damage regardless of the AP equipment she employs because she has the Ace trait enabled and the Anima Squad trait shared.

2-Ekko is a capable summoner and tank who possesses the characteristics Aegis and Prankster. He is a formidable frontliner.

3-Alistar plays a crucial role in your front line. He shares your team's mascot, Ox Force, and Aegis.

4-Nasus is another Anima Squad member who can withstand a lot of punishment while serving as a mascot in combat.

5-Jinx and her pal Ekko share the prankster personality feature, which means they both enjoy making fun of other people.

6-One of the Anima Squad's most potent members is Riven. She possesses the brawler feature, making her a large beast who can do harm and survive in the thick of battle.

7-By giving the squad the Prankster trait and utilising his third passive, which stuns foes that kill practise dummies, Zoe can burn adversaries on fire.

8-Sylas would be a tremendous tank on the front lines because his skill heals, and it gets stronger as more ability power is added by the Anima Squad.
