Are these Riven counter win rates?

No. VRC.LOL presents pre-game learning options and reviewed kit interactions. The order is not a live win prediction, unofficial rating or promise that one champion will win the lane.

Does the suggested build change for the matchup?

Each card previews the relevant build route. Open the full matchup guide for queue-aware opening items, the completed-item order and manually selected situational alternatives.

What if Riven is playing an unusual role?

Choose the role actually assigned in champion select. An unusual role changes income, lane partners and map responsibilities, so a standard-role list should not be relabelled as exact evidence.
