How to Play This Matchup
Mid-Game Showdown
Both champions spike around the same time. The player who gets their first item faster wins. Focus on CS leads and smart trades to build an advantage before the mid-game.
Armor Rush
Both champions deal physical damage. Whoever builds armor first (Plated Steelcaps, Bramble Vest) gets a huge advantage in trades.
Exploit Poppy's Weakness
Poppy's main weakness: No wall = no stun, kiting, poke. Play around this to maximize your advantage.

W blocks dashes, E wall stun, R displacement
Riven Win Condition
Animation cancel combos, snowball lane, splitpush or teamfight
