Introduction
This is my first mobafire-guide ever, and I come from Holland so dont blame this guide for it's bad english ;).
This guide is about Anivia, she's an amazing mage with a stun, aoe slow, high burst at early levels and one of the best passives in this game. I played many games as her and in this guide I will tell you all the tricks you can do with her...
One tip: GO MID LANE, mid lane is your lane so be sure to get that lane!
Best choices:
This summoner spell is the best in this game, it allows you to catch up and place a wall, escape and you can easily get over a wall. Since Anivia has no escape abilities, except for a slow/stun you really need flash!
Since Anivia is one of the slowest champions in this game I really like this spell for chasing, fleeing or just to get quick into a lane.
Other POSSIBLE options:
This is a useful spell, but I dont like it that much on Anivia. If you really need this, take it instead of ghost but be sure to get your boots early on!
Not really THE spell for anivia(shes an ICEbird...) but still if you really think you need this, grab it. but in many cases when I am chasing an enemy, I just place a wall in front of him ^^.
Can be usefull because Anivia is very slow! But I think it belongs more to a AD-carry because you can backdoor with this spell, but a backdooring Anivia isnt that fearful...
Not really useful since you have mana regen runes and masteries, and your goal is to get blue buff as often as possible. If you constantly run out of mana, you might get this spell.
IF YOU TAKE THIS I WILL KILL YOU - spells!:
All the other spells are self-explanatory bad:
Surge - you arent a auto attack champion
smite - you arent a jungler!
etc..
etc...
I've found out that this rune set-up works best for me. I have chosen these runes because:
, I have chosen this rune because it gives you the much-needed magic penetration early game. With these runes and your boots you already have 28,5 magic penetration! thats enough to bring the carries to around 0 magic resistance!
Greater Seal of Replenishment, I've chosen these runes because these are just the best seals for her. you really need the mana regen early game and these will definately help you out!
, The best glyphs for anivia, because you wont have too many mana problems (due to your masteries and seals) and the flat AP will definately help you in the early game!
, Many of you will probably think WHY THE HELL NO MAGIC PENETRATION????, well that's because your marks are already magic penetration and with the void staff magic resistance isnt a big problem. So I have chosen these runes for the same reasons as the glyphs: early game damage!
This is in my opinion one of the best passives if you know how to ´use´ it. If you are in a teamfight dont be afraid to die if this passive is up, if they kill you and you transfer in an egg, the enemy will switch targets and dont attack you, so you have 2 lives!
In the early levels you can also be aggresive, because since you are in mid lane they wont do enough damage yet to kill your egg...
: Anivia summons a shard of ice that flies on a line. The shard will deal magic damage and slow by 20% for 3 seconds to anyone in its path. The shard will detonate when reaching its max range or if the ability is activated again. When the shard explodes it will deal magic damage to all enemies nearby, stunning them for 1 second. The magic damage done by both the shard and the detonation is the same, and both will apply the "chilled" debuff on enemies hit for 3 seconds.
With this skillshot you can deal DOUBLE damage: If you let the shard fly through the enemy and then detonate it--> double damage ;). It will stun at the detonate and that's why we take it at level 1.
: Anivia blasts her target with a freezing wind, dealing magic damage. If the target has been "chilled" by Anivia's other abilities, they will take double damage.
This is your main damage spell! If you are level 3 and have this at level 2 it will deal insane damage if the target is iced. Only use this spell after you hit an enemy with flash frost or glacial storm because only then it will double damage.
: Anivia condenses the moisture in the air into an impenetrable wall of ice to block the movement of all units. The wall lasts 5 seconds before it melts.
Your crowd control spell. If you use it in the jungle you can block whole paths and seperate whole teams, try to use this efficiently and PLEASE dont be hatefull with this and block your ALLIES escapepath -_-.
: Anivia summons a driving rain of ice and hail on a nearby target area to continuously deal magic damage to enemies on it, slowing their movement and attack speed by 20% for 1 second, and "chilling" them.
Very useful spell to set up your frostbite or just to damage them. You even reduce attack speed! do you want more??
This is my skill sequence,
I take Flash Frost at level 1 for the aoe stun/slow. Also the Frostbite won't do to much damage since you need to ice the enemy to really hurt them with Frostbite! I max out my Frostbite immeadeatly after that. Of course I level up Glacial Storm whenever I can!
Farming minions:
Your auto attack is slow and doesnt deal much damage so its pretty difficult to last hit, you must train this and just play many games! When you reach level 6 be sure to grab blue buff and spam your Glacial Storm under these badass minions, they will disappear like butter in the sun ;).
Killing champions:
Since you arent the best minion farmer till you reach level 6 you can focus on trying to kill champions :). If you reach level 2/3 you can harass really efficiently! If you hit with your Flash Frost and you stunned your enemy, get up close and fire your Frostbite right at them! This will mostly get your enemy at half health: if they stay you can kill them and if they go back you will outlevel them ;). You can take some risk because you still have your passive up. Just be sure that you dont are in range of the turret when you become an egg ;).
Put your Glacial Storm under them, then hit them with Frostbite so you will do double damage. Put a wall in the direction they want to escape so they must stay in your ulti. Now hit your Flash Frost while they still try to get out of your Glacial Storm so that they are stunned in it --> kill!!.
You can only do this successfully if you have the blue buff, so as soon as you get lvl 6 go out for that blue buff (maybe ask a teammate to help you) and go kill someone ;).
Hopefully you will have some kills now and the next time you get back you can purchase the Catalyst the Protector and maybe finish your boots. If you have finished your boots follow these items:
Rabadon's Deathcap : THE item for any caster, it gives you A LOT more ability power and 30!! percentage more AP!!!!!!, with this item you are gonna to hurt.
Rod of Ages : next is the Rod of Ages, turn your Catalyst the Protector into this, it will give you life, mana AND ap! just all what Anivia needs!
Void Staff : Having trouble against some tanky characters?? buy this item and they will MELT!, nice amount of AP and ofcourse 40%!! magic penetration!
NOTE:
If you dont have a really strong tank to play against, you might consider to buy a Mejai's Soulstealer, only buy this if you think you really dont need the extra magic penetration!.
Banshee's Veil : Some nice amount of survibility will round up this build.
NOTE:
IF youve got a VERY strong AD team against you, you might want to change the Banshee's Veil for the Frozen Heart, it will give you mana, cooldown reduction AND 99!! armor!. If the game is during that long just sell your Dorans ring and buy the Frozen Heart as a nice extra. This situation will only appear rarely, so this isn't in the main build.
