Conditions:

  • Space Groove +1 for Riven makes this much better

How to Play:

  • Gameplan: Space Groove is best played if you have access to an emblem. Riven synergizes incredibly well with Space Groove’s healing and stacking AD/AP as she will almost always be in the Groove due to the small mana pool. Many augments offer access to spats or emblems so finding +1 Space Groove is realistic. If you don’t have access to Space Groove emblem this comp is a complete Blitzcrank check as 7 Space Groove is over stated.
    • Stage 1-2: Play your strongest Space Groove opener. Gwen + Talon is a great opener, specially if you have Space Groove +1 for Talon. If you don’t have an emblem yet don’t commit to this line yet.
    • Stage 3: Continue picking up Space Groove units, if you find a spat on 3-2, commit. If your board naturally leads into 7 Space Groove and you have enough HP to consistently reach level 9 for Blitzcrank, you can also consider committing to this line.
    • Stage 4: Roll aggressively on 4-2 for Riven 2, Nami 2 and a 2 star front liner. If you find Blitz on 8 you are very likely to be in a good spot, if you don’t play Nasus in his place.
    • Stage 5+: Level to 9 when possible and play 7 Space Groove.
  • Tips:
    • If you don’t have a Space Groove +1 force this line.
    • 5 Space Groove is the most important trait break point as it provides units AP/AD per second spent in the Groove.
    • Nunu, Ornn or TK can be main tanked but ideally it’s Nunu with multiple Vows to CC the enemy board.
    • Prioritize CC immunity on Riven with Space Groove Emblem to maximize uptime.
