Riven vs Camille

Updated Jun 3, 2026

Overview

Riven should leverage her high early agency to pressure Camille and deny her calm scaling opportunities.
Focus on short trades that punish Camille's cooldowns and avoid extended fights where her true damage and lockdown excel.
This is a snowball vs scale matchup; Riven must snowball early leads to prevent Camille's late-game side-lane dominance.

Trading pattern

Start trades with (E) shield, chain (Q) and (W) to lock down Camille before she can retaliate.
Punish Camille when she wastes (E) or second (Q) true damage timing by forcing extended trades.
Avoid trading when (E) and (R) lockdown are available; wait for cooldown windows to engage safely.

Danger windows

Camille is most dangerous when (E) is ready from terrain for engage or escape; maintain spacing to reduce her angles.
Avoid extended trades when (R) is available as it locks down one target and negates escapes.
Riven is vulnerable after spending (Q) and (E) as mobility and shield are down; avoid overcommitting in these windows.

Early game

Use early levels to trade with cooldown sequencing, especially when (E) is down to avoid her engage.
Avoid committing after using (Q) and (E) to maintain mobility and shield for defense.
Control the wave to create space for cooldown trades and prevent Camille from safely using terrain for (E).

Power spikes

At level 6, bait (R) or key disengage before committing to a lethal (R) all-in combo.
First haste/damage item spike lets Riven threaten repeated short trades and punish Camille's cooldowns more effectively.
Respect Camille's first sheen-style item spike that powers her second (Q) true damage and short trades; avoid extended fights then.

Win conditions

Snowball by punishing Camille's cooldowns with quick (Q)-(W)-(E) combos and disengage before she can counter.
Deny Camille's side-lane pressure by controlling wave and forcing fights before her item spikes.
Use level 6 (R) to convert prior chip damage into kills, securing lane dominance and enabling side-lane or skirmish pressure.
