What is Riven's most reliable build when she mainly has to win the second phase of the exchange?

The most reliable build on Riven is the one that preserves the first spike while still keeping an escape valve. If your item order prevents you from playing the champion's first real window, the build may look strong on paper but it is not reliable.

When should you truly adapt Riven's build instead of simply pushing the standard bruiser version?

You should adapt as soon as the enemy draft stops you from playing the timing the build was meant to serve. If you need to survive longer, absorb more poke, or answer a specific engage pattern, the purchase order must move before you even think about the final six-slot build.

Which enchant should Riven choose when the real problem is mainly getting another rotation off without dying to the answer?

stasis is often the most stable choice because it directly supports this game plan: maximize combo burst while keeping sustain for repeated trades.
