Anivia Mid Counter Guide

Anivia has key vulnerabilities that can be exploited through proper strategy and timing.

Best Counters:

• Naafiri
• Xerath
• Ahri
• Qiyana
• Taliyah

Laning Phase Strategy

• Punish Anivia when she uses abilities on minions
• Track her passive (Egg) cooldown - optimal gank timing when it's down
• Save dash abilities to dodge her Q (Flash Frost)
• Capitalize on her weak early farming

Mid-Game Tactics

• Deny blue buff access - Anivia is extremely mana dependent
• Counter her wave clear by matching her push
• Coordinate ganks when her egg is on cooldown
• Flank instead of engaging head-on to avoid her wall (W)

Power Spike Windows

1. Early Game (Pre-6)
   • Anivia is weak due to mana constraints
   • Trade aggressively while she builds mana items
2. Mid Game
   • Watch for level 6 power spike (Ultimate unlocked)
   • Increased wave clear and trading potential
3. Late Game
   • Focus on CC-chaining
   • Coordinate team fights when her egg is down

Key Counterplay Tips

• Maintain wave control to limit roaming
• Use CC-heavy champions to exploit her immobility
• Track mana usage and force fights when she's low
• Clear vision to enable successful flanks

Counter Champions:

Remember to adapt your build path to include magic resistance when necessary and prioritize mobility items to dodge her skill shots effectively.
