Camille vs Riven

Updated Jun 2, 2026

Overview

Camille aims to control the lane by punishing Riven's cooldowns and avoiding extended fights before item spikes.
Focus on medium early agency and scaling into a strong side-lane presence with true damage and lockdown.
This is a scale-versus-snowball matchup where Camille must deny Riven's early burst and survive to item power spikes.

Trading pattern

Prepare to land second (Q) for burst trades and only engage with (E) when the angle is safe and confirmed.
Punish Riven after she uses (Q) and (E) mobility cooldowns to limit her escape and engage options.
Avoid extended trades where Riven can chain combos with (W) stun or third (Q) knockup.

Danger windows

Riven is most dangerous when all basic cooldowns are available, especially (W) stun and third (Q) knockup.
Camille is vulnerable if (E) misses, losing both engage and escape options.
Avoid trading when Riven's shield (E) and mobility are up, and her (R) execute is active on low health targets.

Early game

Use terrain angles to threaten (E) engages and avoid long trades before first item.
Take short trades that land the second (Q) true damage and disengage before Riven can retaliate.
Respect (W) stun and (Q) mobility chains by not overcommitting without cooldown advantage.

Power spikes

Camille's first sheen-style item enables reliable second (Q) trades; use this to pressure and threaten side-lane picks.
At level 6, use (R) to lock down Riven after baiting her disengage or defensive cooldowns.
Respect Riven's level 6 (R) execute power and her combo cooldown sequencing to avoid lethal burst.

Win conditions

Win by controlling side-lane pressure using terrain for (E) engages and short trades around second (Q).
Deny Riven's cooldown windows and punish overextensions before Camille's item spikes.
Use (R) lockdown to isolate and kill Riven in side-lane picks, scaling into a strong splitpush threat.
