Tips & Tricks

  • 1.Animation cancel Q auto-attacks by clicking the ground between each Q cast for massively faster combos.
  • 2.E (Valor) cancels the animation of other abilities — E-W for instant stun, E-R for instant ult cast.
  • 3.R (Blade of the Exile) empowers all abilities; recast R fires Wind Slash as a ranged execute.
  • 4.W (Ki Burst) is a short-range AoE stun — use it after Q3 knockup for chained CC.
  • 5.Riven is the most animation-cancel-heavy champion; practice fast Q combo and doublecast in practice tool.
