Tips Against Anivia in Mid Lane Tips Provided by MOBAFire Guide Authors

twin7zz says “She's tough to kill on her own, and she can take you down early with Ignite. Focus on farming and outscaling her on side. Use your Q to cancel her R, and don’t underestimate her damage.”
Laevateinn says “Bird. Her passive can be annoying but her weaker early game can allow you to play quite aggressively to try and proc her passive early. Her Q is very slow and can be avoided quite easily, especially if you have W up. Her wall can be annoying at times but your ult can just dash over it. Her E is only an issue if you get hit by Q or stay in her ult for too long. Her ult can be a problem but it takes some time to fully bloom and apply chilled so you can very easily W out of it and/or make an aggressive trade against her. The biggest issue comes in her aggressive wave pushing post-6. You'll have to either constantly take waves in lane or give up turret platings to try and get some roams in. I'd recommend ignite as anivia is already a very slow champion with high damage and CC as well as being decently tanky, so exhaust will not help as much.”
Cura_C4ncr0sEZ says “The bird is annoying but manageable. Just need to dodge the E while being careful because of the wall and E'ing her Q poke. If u get caught the E W combo just E her away, Q her R (since u can cancel the channel) or ward hop through the wall or W E the wall and get away. Try to kill her lvl3. take E first and dont let her poke you. Take flah ignite and try to get a kill early on her and then chill or help the team as much as possible. In team fight go for the carry or her. Build according to the game.”

uramakyo says “Her wall completely counters your kiting and her E shreds in extended trades which is your territory. She's also tanky thanks to her passive egg. One of your harder matchups.”

Gladiore says “Very hard to solo kill, if your jgler doesn't gank I recommend just running teleport and playing to roam since you get outscaled and will most likely die if u force a play trying to kill her. I do recommend going tenacity shard here though. (irregardless of which build you go)”
V222 says “Go darkseal and gathering storm tp instead of dorans ring, ignite, scorch because its really hard to kill her unless she is really bad Anivia's auto attack range is really long so play around just q'ing minions on max range so u don't get poked and die especially if its ignite anivia, ideally base on 400G and buy dorans ring and TP back to lane if needed ( most of the time it is needed ) f she has Q up and u want to look for a trade E Q her but don't use your E auto and just bait out her Q and then use your E2, ideally u would want to do this with W shield up. Killing her solo is really hard, but u can setup her for your jungler and hitting your W on anivia is generally easy because its a no dash champion.”
Young Ryze says “You win pre 6 so aggressive early and after 6 just clear waves and try to dodge as much as u can if you fight her. Perma roam lane, you pretty much cant kill her without jg because of the passive. I go mercurys boots for the matchup if they dont have other slows than anivia. 15% tenacity n slow resist rune.”

Soul0fghost says “If you can setup ganks its easy but if not, you will get out scaled.”

Soul0fghost says “You have to space her and watch for ganks with her ganksetup. If your bad at dodging, she can also be really annoying. Try to pop egg and get ganks.”

skruub says “D SHIELD Dark Harv/Res Gets unfun after her first back, id rush boots into this matchup for the ms to dodge her q. depending on her itemization form makes almost this braindead easy. If she builds armor play for rotations. ”
