How to Play Riven in ARAM Mayhem

You are a melee skirmisher who dives in once the enemy has used key crowd control, then sticks to the backline with dashes. Chain Broken Wings (Q) into Ki Burst (W) for the knock-up and stun, weave attacks between abilities to spend Runic Blade charges, and use Valor (E) to absorb burst. Death's Dance and Sundered Sky keep you alive in long brawls.
