How to counter Riven as Sion

Poke with e. When she tries to trade use w to soak up damage. Focus on farming instead of getting a kill. Riven needs kills to snowball. Sion does not die easily. Make sure you ping mia as much as possible. She will roam because she wont be ahead.

I've played 3 games with sion vs riven. It's tough going at first. Wait for her to use spells before going in to farm. Use E to poke as much as possible. Don't try to build damage, just armor and HP, and you can start winning trades after lvl 6 or 7.

Abuse teleport and your ultimate to have more lane presence than her and try to have 5 HP pots every time you go back. Let her get ahead in CS, there's nothing you can do until you can win trades with her at lvl 6 or 7.

Farm until 6-7. If she tries to trade, she will lose cs and you can soak up the damage with W. Ping MIA if you don't see her. After 6 or 7, you can win trades if you have more cs. Then just zone her further out of cs. Whatever you do, don't die.

How to counter Sion as Riven

Riven just may be Sion's (The new Sion's) hardest counter in the top lane. You can quickly burst down his shield with your Q combo, and dash out of his knock-up and E with your own E, and even if you do not avoid you, you will still take reduced damage.

As you are fighting him, he will most likely charge his Q. While he is in the middle of charging, use your 3rd Q or W to negate his Q effects. If you continuously do this over and over, an easy kill awaits.

When he dies, and goes on his berserk rampage from his passive, you have plenty of CC to hold him down and let his health drip away. He can barely land a hit on you, whether you choose to CC him with your Q and W, or dash away with your Q and E.
